Unfortunately we are limited to snippets here. Go read the interviews with his parents, the snipped parts & the earlier artciles about him. He was no longer working. He had been let go and advised to leave Iraq. He was trying to get out of there with no help from the same people who first "advised" him to leave and interrogated both him and his family demanding to know what he was doing in Iraq.

You also misunderstand about a privacy waiver. A privacy waiver is not to protect the individual, it's to protect the government/employer. One good example is Wen Ho Lee who was tripped up by the one he signed because it allowed them to legally search his computer and hard drive to suit their ends. I've signed many a privacy waiver in my time- they're not for the individual- they're exactly what they say they are- a legal document where you "waive" your rights and they impose their own conditions.


Gotta go but let me quickly add that they didn't need "various details that only they and their son would know about" to confirm his story. That doesn't stand up. I don't need to know that when you were 6 years old, you broke your knee falling out of an apple tree to confirm what you're doing in a war zone 30 years later. They knew that had Nick Berg so that that doesn't explain it... People don't ask others for intimate details about you unless they need them to manipulate you; like I said- my guess here is to "lure" you out of hiding because it seems to me he would have been trying to avoid his "interrogators".
