Was Nick Berg's Excecution Staged?

Hmmm, think I'm being misunderstod here, what I mean is that apathy from the masses allows the 'powers' to behave in anyway they choose. It is your parogative, no, in fact it's your duty to make sure that you flex your agreement / dissaproval of the things carried out in your name. Obviously I'm using the royal 'you', I don't mean individuals, I mean everyone.

How can my 'democratic' country (England) be dragged into a war that 78% of the population opposed?

Bullshit, these are not true numbers, many people wanted us to go to war... it was a neccesary evil!

Four Arrested in Iraq for Berg Killing
BAGHDAD, Iraq - Iraqi police have arrested four people in the killing of American Nicholas Berg, an Iraqi security official said Friday.

The suspects were former members of Saddam Hussein (news - web sites)'s Fedayeen paramilitary organization, said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity. They were arrested a week ago.

NEWS SOURCE

Interesting, maybe I'll be proven wrong and it will turn out that it was indead Iraqis that killed Nick Berg.

American voices heard in video?

http://www.atsnn.com/story/51616.html

Dubbed in? I did see the beheading video, then turned it off. I do not want to see the video again to check.

EDIT: Eh, it could be American, but it's just too faint to really tell. Could be any language

I will say it is pretty unusual how the pictures I've seen of Berg well before the beheading, he is bald and wears glasses. The pics of him right before the beheading, he has a lot of hair, and a beard.

Berg never grew his hair out when he was younger or something?

I made the mistake of reading this thread and then watching the video to decide my stance...I think I was better off having never seen it, but now that I have, I still can't truly make up my mind. It has so many little things that make it seem fake, but why would it be fake? I argued with a close friend about it, and ended up deadlocked with neither of us sure either way...

Any closing to this would be nice, I would love to know the explanations for the flaws.

There is a simple reason that is the premise for why this video would be fake. The United States was under attack from the entire world for its treatment of Iraq Prisoners. Once this video came out, it seemed that what they did to the Prisoners was necessary. After all, most Americans no longer care for the Prisoners.

I'm an American.  I want to work a 40 hour work week, chase women and play my xbox during my free time.  I really don't want to think that the government that allows me to do this is trying to pull the wool over my eyes.  

This Nick Berg thing didn't seem right to me when I first heard it.  The conspiracy talk makes sense.  Could you imagine what would happen to the world if this execution was staged?

Ya know it's funny that I've gotten more conspiracy news from xbox-scene than anywhere else.  That whole www.johntitor.com thing got the gears in my head going a few months back.  The concept is really cool and I recommend people check the site out.  You could spend hours reading all the stuff on there.  I don't buy all of it but I'm a dork who likes to think "What if?...."

I'm sure I heard on the radio the other day saying that they will be demolishing the abu gareib(sp?) prison soon! Destroying evidence maybe?

Moistness, that's exactly what I said to the missus when we saw it on the news last night. It as though 'razing' the prison is going to sever any responsibility for what has happened there. Fuck that. The people responsible should be forced to face the consiquences like anyone else would be expected to.
