When the vid first appeared, I watched it. It sucked very bad. That video and evrything else that went on in that time-frame affected me deeply as an American and as a human. I realize that attrocities like this happen all of the time, even now. Im sorry but Id rather not re-visit these feelings by reviewing any images or video. I truly believe with every fiber of my being that this wasnt a hoax, and that this man was killed because he was a Jew. This incident is just one of many that caused me to choose not to believe in any religious text or the concept and existense of g%d. It woke me up to what ALL faiths do in the name of thier church or whatever you want to call it. I realized that I can be an American without believing in g*d or any other hocus pocus. The events of that time showed me just how much control religion has over our society and how much human freedom is taken away due to the churches grip on our governments. Any way..Hoax-No, Wake up call-Yes. I doubt Ill live to see it, but its time to take religion out of government, out of the schools, ammend the constitution, Let Freedom truly ring. Worship how you want , to who you want just leave it out of your politics, and governing, education etc. It is nothing more than mass brainwashing. There is your real hoax.

I can see their point when looking at evidence into it...but if it was Hoaxed, does that mean that this was a government sanctioned killing of this man? Because whoever he was, if it really was Nick Berg is most certainly dead as this was not a CGI or a manequin, it was a real human being. I hope for the sake of our government that this was really al qaeda, but I have my doubts after looking at the evidence. If they were capable of what happened at abu Ghraib then who knows what else they are willing to do...it's sick if you ask me. I'll try and look into it a bit more but i doubt there would EVER be a public admission of a hoax such as this...even with all the evidence staring you in the face, how could you ever prove it all the same?

I mean no disrespect to Nick Berg
or family members but this was the first
time I had seen this video and I noticed
an anomaly myself. The video was edited
and panned to the left right before the
head was lifted up so it was not possible
to confirm it came from there.
Also, the man starting the cutting and did most
of the work had a black head gear on and when
it switched to the different angle edited part,
the man with the white head gear had taken
his place.
It did seem fake to me.
But if it was fake,
what happened to the real Berg???

I also have to mention this is not the first
American to have a hoaxed murder.
There also was the CIA Agent who was
supposedly killed by Iranians in the riots
in Iran. Some believed that was hoaxed too
and she wound up later with a bullet
in her skull, probably from the CIA or
Mossad.
It seems these intelligence agencies
are bigger terrorists than the ones
they call terrorists.

Is this the video from years ago? If so I will NOT watch or look at the pics.
My bf at the time had me watch this and didnt tell me what it was. I watched part of it before I realized, got sick and threw up. I still remember it.
I never heard this could have been a fake and I dont care to see that video again to look at anomalies. It takes a lot to make me get sick from gory stuff but this video really disturbed me..If this was a fake why would anyone do this?

The only thing I found odd about it was that Berg appeared already incapacitated.
