thus we have Nick Berg's beheading

I still find it very difficult to believe they would behead
anyone for the prisoner abuse issue. The Iraqis and
anti-American radicals had the perfect gift to parade to the
world against Bush and America. Their retaliation would
have been a public bombing. These people are not that
stupid. Nick Berg's death came at a very opportune time
for Bush. Why would they throw away the perfect propaganda
story to get world wide sympathy and/or support, by
commiting a cheap shot that was so out of character, and
help Bush at the same time?

Thomas M,

You have the most convoluted view of the Iraq situation that I've ever read.

1) The country of Iraq was not conquered, quite the contrary, it is being liberated. Saddam Hussein was conquered.

2) The U.S. gov is not to blame for Nick Berg's beheading, rather those who captured him & physically chopped off his head are the culprits.

You need to remind yourself that international terrorists are your enemy....not the Bush Adm.
