God Bless you, Michael Berg; Fuck off, Soledad O'Brien
It seemed that Soledad was not prepared to hear what Michael Berg had to say. (rough transcript)

Berg: Zarqawi is also a political figure and his death will reignite yet another wave of revenge-revenge is something I do not follow. I do not ask for against anybody and it's an endless cycle as long as people use violence to combat violence-ahh we will always have violence.

Soledad: I have to say sir I'm surprised, I know how devastated you were-your family was frankly when Nick was killed in such a horrible and brutal---

Berg: Well you shouldn't be surprised because I have never said anything but forgiveness and peace...

CBS News has more: "Nicholas Berg's father, a pacifist who is running for Delaware's U.S. House seat on the Green Party ticket, said al-Zarqawi's death is likely to foster anti-American resentment among al-Qaida members who feel they have nothing left to lose." He dismissed the notion that al-Zarqawi's death might bring him closure...

2. Nick Bergs dad is a better person than
these MSM shills will ever be. That is why they are so shocked when someone fails to want an eye for an eye- but instead an end to the poking of eyes.

4. He is going to be on Larry King tonight at nine.
I will be sure to tune in. I saw the interview this morning on CNN. Soledad did not know what to do with that one. It did not quite turn out the way she had hoped. Too funny!

5. He's being attacked on Ed Schultz right now
the caller say she's not a man because he didn't want revenge. The irony is that the right claim to be christians - what ever happened to thou shall not kill. Whateve rhappened to vengeance is mine says their lord?

6. How do we contribute to his campaign?
heard him on Ed Schultz. The world needs more people like him.

He said he thought whoever killed his son (hypothetically Zarqawi) should not have been killed but forced to do something like work in a children's hospital full of maimed kids until he got his humanity back. Also, when asked what should be done about terrorists, he replied "impeach him"!

12. "IMPEACH HIM"!
They really don't want to hear that kind of talk. How ironic that the father of Nick Berg who was alledgely killed by zawqawi is the Peace man.

7. Ed Schultz didn't know what the hell to do with him either
Edited on Thu Jun-08-06 03:16 PM by eleny
Ed shifted the interview a couple of times until it was over. Hammina-hammina-hammina. People just don't know what to do with peace-talk. I heard that a guy named Jesus had the same problem.

8. The MSM is so consumed with revenge
Revenge makes a better story. They cant understand someone looking at the bigger picture and also stating that we should have had Zarquawi long before today.

13. This man - Berg - is the embodiment of Jesus Christ
yet most of the so called followers of Jesus will attack and vilify him.

16. Michael Berg is an enlightened soul and the only way O'Brien was able to
deal with him was to cut him off. Blessings to you Michael Berg.
