[Marxism] Michael Berg and George Bush

["Tony Abdo" <gojack10@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Bush in Wisconsin...

Bush spoke of Nicholas Berg, the young American who was recently beheaded in
Iraq. The CIA has blamed Abu Musab Zarqawi, a Jordanian terrorist connected
to the al Qaeda terrorist network, and Bush used the killing to make the
case that Saddam Hussein "had terrorist ties."

"The person responsible for the Berg death, Zarqawi, was in and out of
Baghdad prior to our arrival, for example," the president said.

and Nick Berg's dad in Pennsylvania....

On Friday, Mr. Berg's father, Michael, joined hundreds of others at a
synagogue here outside Philadelphia at a private memorial service in honor
of his son. While others in attendance wore suits and blazers, Michael Berg
offered his own simple, silent tribute to youngest child, opting not for a
jacket and tie, but donning instead a green t-shirt nearly identical to the
one worn by his son in that suddenly famous photograph. The family had
affixed it to their mailbox in the days after his death.

"I think he really wanted people to see that this kid wasn't into being
flashy," said Bruce Hauser, a spokesman for the Berg family said of the
gesture by Michael Berg. "He had his mind into doing what he wanted to do."
