One second bill--lets put it in context

CNN snipit
Berg's father said Thursday his son was someone who simply wanted to "help people, not to hurt anyone." "He was not disrespectful of danger, he just didn't recognize danger in people," Michael Berg said. "The al Qaeda that killed my son didn't know what they were doing. They killed their best friend. Nick was there to build Iraq, not to tear it down."

What the father and liberals miss is that a peaceful stable iraq is anathema to the terrorists. Its quite a naive statement and has little to do with grief and more to do with left wing thought patterns. I think his blaming of bush and rumsfeld comes from that too but may specifically deal with what he sees as a US screw up when his son missed the march 30 flight he was supposed to take home.
The Moussawi thing is troubling as is anti-semetic lit. Still sounds too weird given the visits to israel by the familiy in the past.

Murdering a do-gooder because he's easier to catch is even more repugnant.

Or murdering a useful idiot that volunteered to be a stage prop is even more repugnant.

I hope the guy wasn't that stupid.
