Full-length video of the beheading of Nick Berg circulates on the internet
US media outlets that broadcast the video halted the tape just after the center terrorist pulls a long knife from his shirt. The remaining footage shows the process of wrestling Nick Berg to the ground, decapitating him, then holding his head at arm's length.

At least two high school teachers are placed on leave for showing the full video to students: May 16, 2004
"Students said he wanted to make the point that atrocities are committed on both sides of the Iraqi war. The video showing the 26-year-old Berg's execution by Islamic militants has been one of the most widely watched items on the Internet since it was posted Tuesday, according to Web sites that track search requests. The execution has left its mark on other media, too. A pair of Portland-based disc jockeys were fired this week after playing the audiotape of the incident on the air and joking about it. And Doonesbury cartoonist Garry Trudeau is apologizing for a cartoon, which he created before the Berg killing, that shows a man's head on a platter."

A War of Images easily becomes a War of Disinformation Images. The following article suggests anomalies surrounding the life and death of Berg. Whether true or not, articles like this 1) make clear the key investagatory role now taken up by everyday citizens—rather than government agencies or news institutions—and the manner in which such information is shared, amplified and vetted in weblogs and the like; and 2) the detailed investagory process necessary to determine or challenge the "truth" of visual materials that stipulate an event.

you know what? I think its about fuckin time we set a fuckin nuke off like we did to japan. These mother fuckin Muslims or whatever they are have no sympathy for human life it is their religion to kill people like us....they get honored and rewarded for that shit. nothing will ever change in iraq....nothing for as long as the world rotates. i think we should have killed sadam and set up their own military its their problem not ours. america!!!!we cant change their ways so get the fuck out of there!!!

Listen to yourselves God this and God that. Organized religion and God are the reason for all wars and mass killings. The stupidity of the human race is boundless. If there was a God would he let this happen and if he did would he deserve your praise and worship. Grow a brain everyone don't talk of a God because everyone else does and it's politically correct. Realize we are an accident of nature a funtion of the fact that with an infinite # of planets in this infinitely large universe there are bound to be the odd place where the conditions can produce this. No one or thing will take care of us or care about us other than us. The secret to ending wars and people living a peaceful life do away with this useless God worshipping crap, start caring for and loving each other. Tangible emotional people instead of believing fairytales written at the same time the world was flat and you could fall off the edge. Hey what was 1880 like for you??? Don't know because you didn't exist. Well I got a news flash thats whats in store for you in 2100. This is a one way trip and you only do it once. Don't waste it fighting over a figment of your imagination. Take care of each other and live well.

Death 2 the unwanted sons of Abraham. Those not of the blessing. They are from Ishmael. Not Isaac. May the God of Jacob,Isaac,and Israel live forever and curse these wretched sons an daughters of adultery.Thats what they are. Sarah should have waited on God. But stressed the issue. Now look what that decision Abraham made has done 2 us all. We are of the promise they are going 2 hell! I hope Obama has the balls string up all retarded extremist. I think this should be done publicly. Let the enemies of God be lynchedon TV 4 the whole world 2 see. We wont stand 4 it. I wish these cowards would come out of their snakepits and fight like real brave men. But noooooooo hide behind women,children,and religion. @hell with them all! I say NUKE EM ALL!!! Let god sort em out.

READ THIS:
To all of the living creatures called HUMAN BEINGS. Hate for Muslim, Americans, Christians, Jews, Hot-Dogs, Pakis, Iranian, Israelis, (NAME IT), you find yourself!!!! Is it HUMAN? In the name of religion, you justify your killing. Lets be sensible and take a step back and rely on history. Re-think it over again, and you get a good chance you are not going to be-head someone, this is to those fanatics of muslims' religion. I don't think you have any moral sence installed in your head. Life is not granted and you will never be blessed. That much i am sure of.
You are killing your own image. Must be something wrong with your belief and religion. What kind of blessing do you expect!!!

I'm really disappointed from everyone who posted a comment. Why is every discussion turned into a piss tournament. I wish we can all be civilized and take things a bit more seriously. I am a muslim , I respect Christians , Jews , Hindus. Every man has the right to accept a faith. Our religion doesn't tell us to kill or to behead anyone. You are right these people are terrorists employed by politicians and lobbyists using the name of islam to bring blame and hatred over us. Islam means peace and if anyone actually reads the Quaran I'm sure that would be found clear. When I read such comments insulting our religion our holy book I feel very disturbed, but as a muslim I never react in Violence , Instead I confront head on. Please remember no matter what ... U.S presence in Iraq is just for Oil. We all know there aren't any weapons of destruction , and the U.S government admitted that. Bin-ladin is a terrorist and a disgrace to Islam. I hope that you people understand we muslims are normal just like you. we dont walk around in ridiculous terrorist costumes, we wear what you wear, we use Mach3 turbo to shave our beards. Terrorism should be seperated from Islam. I wish our governments would help in doing this.
