Was It Real?

Here’s a very interesting article on the Berg murder. Forensic experts are skeptical.

So, apparently are intelligence experts:

Speaking off the record, intelligence community sources have previously said they believe it “very likely” that al-Zarqawi is indeed long dead. Such a fact makes al-Zarqawi’s alleged killing of Berg difficult to reconcile, and there has been broad speculation that blaming al-Zarqawi is an administration ploy. Further anomalies surrounding Berg’s death have fueled added speculation.

The story goes on to discuss the various oddities surounding the capture and the video including some I hadn’t heard before.

I have a feeling that all the right wing hysteria about this story is going to prove extremely embarrassing to them before too long. There has been something wrong with it from the very beginning.
