Berg Father Confirms His Lefty Idiocy - Blames Bush and Rumsfeld
EFL
The father of Nick Berg, the American beheaded in Iraq, directly blamed President Bush and Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld on Thursday for his son’s death. "My son died for the sins of George Bush and Donald Rumsfeld. This administration did this," Berg said in an interview with radio station KYW-AM.
Now this moonbat may be in mourning, but his attempt to use his son’s tragic death for political edge deserves the STFU that I’m giving him...Al-Qaeda and their friends cut his throat, and you helped, sir
In the interview from outside his home in West Chester, Pennsylvania, a seething Michael Berg also said his 26-year-old son, a civilian contractor, probably would have felt positive, even about his executioners, until the last minute. "I am sure that he only saw the good in his captors until the last second of his life," Berg said. "They did not know what they were doing. They killed their best friend."

Two days after the publication of a video showing the execution of his son by five masked men, Berg attacked the Bush administration for its invasion of Iraq and its sponsorship of the Patriot Act, which gives sweeping powers of surveillance to the federal government. Berg described the Patriot Act as a "coup d’etat." He added: "It’s not the same America I grew up in."

The criticism came amid finger-pointing between Berg’s family, U.S. military officials and Iraqi police over the young businessman’s imprisonment before his execution. Michael Berg rejected U.S. government claims that his son had never been held by American authorities in Iraq. The Iraqi police chief in the city of Mosul has also contradicted statements by the U.S.-led coalition concerning the younger Berg’s detention
