As far as I can follow it, Berg lent his laptop to Moussaoui when they were both at the University of OK. Somehow, ZM used it to send e-mails, then kept Berg’s username and password. It was on the hard drive of ZM’s laptop. The FBI questioned Berg in early 2002 about it.
Ashcroft, at a news conference the Friday after Berg’s assassination, said that the FBI determined that it was all just a coincidence, and after all, it was common for students to borrow each others’ laptops.
Yup.
So you’ve got a guy with known connections to a probable 9/11 suspect, also connected to the Republican party (he did work on the 2000 convention), apparently loose for no reason in a war zone, being held maybe by the FBI, maybe by the Iraqis for two weeks, released and then publicly executed.

Yeah, you should read my commentary with a heavy dose of irony, too…I don’t believe the straight government line on this, either. Never did. Certainly never thought it was al-Zarqawi.
Would love an explanation for the prison jumpsuit, when every other prisoner video shows them in standard clothing.
And the fact that Berg’s name was in Zaccarias Moussaoui’s laptop and that he was questioned right after 9/11? Coincidental, according to Ashcroft.

“American officials believe that wanted terrorist and Al Qaeda associate Abu Musab al-Zarqawi (search) may have personally killed Berg.
But the Iraqi security official told the AP that the group that was involved in the killing of Berg was led by Yasser al-Sabawi (search), a nephew of Saddam Hussein.”
Is this just another case of “intelligence” blundering or is there something deeper going on here?
Well, I’d be inclined to think that there is a deeper motivation to all this. Perhaps an attempt to once and for all link Saddam Hussein to the Al-Queda? I am thinking that would give the Bush Administration more credibility and would “justify” what is otherwise widely believed to be an unjust war.

The question is
“American officials believe that wanted terrorist and Al Qaeda associate Abu Musab al-Zarqawi (search) may have personally killed Berg.
But the Iraqi security official told the AP that the group that was involved in the killing of Berg was led by Yasser al-Sabawi (search), a nephew of Saddam Hussein.”
Is this just another case of “intelligence” blundering or is there something deeper going on here?
Well, I’d be inclined to think that there is a deeper motivation to all this. Perhaps an attempt to once and for all link Saddam Hussein to the Al-Queda? I am thinking that would give the Bush Administration more credibility and would “justify” what is otherwise widely believed to be an unjust war.
But hey, I am a paranoid conspiracy theorist!
