> any "incident", even the recent beheading of an American in Iraq, could be one

Something doesn't add up about this one.

>>As West Chester, Pa. mourns the brutal death of native son Nick Berg at the hands of Iraqi terrorists, his parents want to know why he was detained by the US military there and why he wasn't escorted out of Iraq after he was released.

According to US officials, the American civilian who was beheaded in a grisly video posted on an al-Qaida-linked web site had been warned to leave Iraq but refused.

Meanwhile, a US spokesman says Berg was never under US custody despite claims from his family.

On April 5th, the Bergs filed suit in federal court in Philadelphia, contending that their son was being held illegally by the US military.

The next day Berg was released. He told his parents he hadn't been mistreated.

His family last heard from him April 9th, but it was unclear when and where he was abducted. <<

One day later his throat was cut by "terrorists". What a most convenient distraction from the torture pics from Abu Ghraib.
