Father of beheaded man blames Bush, not Zarqawi Thu Jun 8, 2006 8:23am ET163 Top News Al-Qaeda's Zarqawi killed Bush says Zarqawi death may "turn the tide" Iran says threats will not work in nuclear talks By Jon Hurdle PHILADELPHIA (Reuters) - Michael Berg, whose son Nick was beheaded in Iraq in 2004, said on Thursday he felt no sense of relief at the killing of the al Qaeda leader in Iraq and blamed President Bush for his son's death. Asked what would give him satisfaction, Berg, an anti-war activist and candidate for U.S. Congress, said, "The end of the war and getting rid of George Bush." The United States said its aircraft killed Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the insurgent leader who masterminded the death of hundreds in suicide bombings and was blamed for the videotaped beheading of Nick Berg, a U.S. contractor, and other captives. "I don't think that Zarqawi is himself responsible for the killings of hundreds of thousands of people in Iraq," Berg said in a combative television interview with the U.S. Fox News network. "I think George Bush is. "George Bush is the one that invaded this country, George Bush is the one that destabilized it so that Zarqawi could get in, so that Zarqawi had a need to get in, to defend his region of the country from American invaders." Berg said Bush was to blame for the torture of Iraqi prisoners by U.S. soldiers at Abu Ghraib prison near Baghdad. "Yeah, like George Bush didn't OK the torture and death and rape of people in the Abu Ghraib prison for which my son was killed in retaliation?" he told his Fox interviewers. In a telephone interview with Reuters from his home in Wilmington, Delaware, the father said: "I have no sense of relief, just sadness that another human being had to die."

lp (formerly UB?), i think the "page 16" story that has been totally overlooked is that SAUDI ARABIA HAS PEAKED. that's just what Simmons predicted (feared). of course, the Saudis are spinning this as "there's not enough demand" (despite the reality of record demand)--i.e., typical War-is-Peace doublespeak. this is the equivalent of the Texas Railroad Commission's elimination of quotas for the Lower 48, which Deffeyes (in his first book) recalls reading in a page 16 story back in 1970/71. Message 22513286 CL is set to go apeshiat. only a worldwide depression can stop it at this point, imo.
