Terrorist mastermind Zarqawi has announced his name but hidden his face. The
CIA has said it is indeed Zarqawi, but he appears to be reading his own speech
from a paper.
The person holding the knife -- allegedly Zarqawi -- has a Black hood at the
video's beginning, but there is an edit (the camera time signatures change) and
the knifeholder is then wearing a WHITE hood (and no bulletproof vest).
You'll also find the following oddities in the heavily edited video, which was
heavily edited, presumably in a lab or on a pc:
WM-----|-----Video Clock-----|-----Screen Shot
0:00 ---|--- nothing ---|-------Arabic letters
0:05 ---|--- 13:26:24 ---|--- Nick Berg speaking
0:09 ---|---- 2:18:33 ---|--- Nick Berg sitting
0:20 ---|---- 2:40:33 ---|--- Speech in Arabic
4:36 ---|---- 2:44:56 ---|--- Speaker pushes Berg over
4:38 ---|--- 13:45:48 ---|--- Decapitation begins
4:43 ---|--- 13:45:52 ---|--- Picture lost
4:44 ---|--- 13:45:59 ---|--- Picture returns, decapitation continues
So, if we are to assume the timestamps of the two (?) cameras are accurate,
this means Berg was beheaded at 13:47:49 (1:47) but at 2:44, nearly an hour
later, he is sitting with his head intact.
Zarqawi has also been reported to have an artificial leg; this is definitely
not apparent in the video. Nor is his Jordanian accent, according to experts.
Also note the gold ring on the "sinister" (toilet-using) hand -- a definite
no-no for muslims.
Then there's US consulate Beth A. Payne's emails to Berg's family saying their
son was in "US military custody" for 13 days:
http://www.usatoday.com/news/world/iraq/2004-05-13-emails-text_x.htm
April 1, 1:26 a.m. (To Michael Berg, Berg's father)
I have confirmed that your son, Nick, is being detained by the U.S. military in
Mosul. He is safe. He was picked up approximately one week ago. We will try to
obtain additional information regarding his detention and a contact person you
can communicate with directly.
April 1, 5:23 a.m. (To Suzanne Berg, Berg's mother)
I have been able to confirm that your son is being detained by the U.S.
military. I am attempting to identify a person with the U.S. military or FBI
here in Iraq who you can contact directly with your questions.
And, according to CNN, Berg himself had contacted a friend -- Chilean reporter
Hugo Infante -- saying he was in US custody:
http://www.cnn.com/2004/WORLD/meast/05/13/berg.friends/
The US Administration denies this, saying he was in Mosul Iraqi police custody,
BUT "...police chief Maj. Gen. Mohammed Khair al-Barhawi in Mosul insisted his
department had never arrested Berg and said he had no knowledge of the case.
''The Iraqi police never arrested the slain American,'' al-Barhawi told
reporters. ''Take it from me ... that such reports are baseless.''

And of course there are the American orange prisoner jumpsuit and white plastic
chair and yellow walls which appear in the video -- exactly as they do at Abu
Ghraib, the now-notorious site of the American torture of Iraqi POWs:

Next, the hosting website was reported to be in Malaysia, but was discovered to
actually located in London:
Says Jackblood.com, which ran a trace:
"...www.al-asnar.net and www.al-asnar.biz have apparently been disabled by
'authorities.' ...the publishers for these sites are located in London, England
and Nurnberg, Denmark.
"The addresses began to disappear from the internet listings as we reported
this development on The Power Hour Radio Show. Apparently, "Big Brother"; had
been listening to the show and didn't like the news at all. The location of the
publishers for al-ansar.net appears to be at an Arab Press Building, which
appears to be shared by different Arab newspublications. The name of the
organization is the Arab Press House. Thebuilding is apparently the
headquarters for news magazines such as, AlJamilla, Sayidaty, and Al Majallah
among others.
The London address is the following:
http://www.al-ansar.net
Arab Press House
Abdel Rahman al-Rashed
184 High Holborn, WCIV78P, London
tel. 020 78318181
The other address is located in Nurnberg, Denmark. It apparently belongs to a
man named Omar AbuOmar. His email address is:address@hidden .
The complete mailing address is the following:
http://www.al-ansar.biz
Omar AbuOmar
New Dream St. 33
Nurnberg, Denmark, 42114
Phone: +965.15441211
Email: address@hidden
....these same websites (www.al-asnar.net and www.al-asnar.biz) were the ones
that posted the latest Bin Laden audio recording, weeks ago. Despite knowing
the website addresses, and potentially the addresses of their respective
publishers, the CIA, the FBI, and the Department of Homeland Security did not
make any apparent efforts to monitor the websites for uploaded files or
internet traffic. Therefore, no arrests were made."
Next, the AK-47 carried by one of the men is a "Gilal" -- an Israeli weapon
that improves on the AK- 47. Feyadeen and other insurgents almost universally
use AK-47s. The man in the left of the video is standing in the American
military stance known as "parade rest", and several of the apparent terrorists
are wearing white tennis shoes ad bulletproof vests.
At frame 13:46:27, there is an edit and a person with a white ear and a green
cap is seen entering from the right. Then the video is re-edited.
Matt Drudge reports that "The statement in the video was signed off with
Zarqawi's name and dated 11 May" , but Berg's body was reported found on May
10th -- the day before the video was apparently made!
Pay attention. This one is definitely a setup.
