No disrespect, but Nick Berg was on his own hook and must bear the ultimate responsibility for what happened to him. I don't care who's doing the blaming, he and the terrorists are to blame. Nobody else.

You're right.......however, his father doesn't agree with us.

"...But CBS News National Security Correspondent David Martin reports on what is turning into a bizarre mystery with a connection to 9/11.

U.S. officials say the FBI questioned Berg in 2002 after a computer password Berg used in college turned up in the possession of Zaccarias Moussaoui, the al Qaeda operative arrested shortly before 9/11 for his suspicious activity at a flight school in Minnesota.

The bureau had already dismissed the connection between Berg and Moussaoui as nothing more than a college student who had been careless about protecting his password.

But in the wake of Berg's gruesome murder, it becomes a stranger than fiction coincidence -- an American who inadvertently gave away his computer password to one notorious al Qaeda operative is later murdered by another notorious al Qaeda operative...."

I have to agree. As sad as it is for Nick Berg to pass in such a tragic fashion, he was putting himself at tremendous risk being an American in a war zone in which America is involved in. No bodygaurds, just freelancing. He seemed like a nice kid, wanting to do right for the world, but he chose the wrong place to be.
