The Berg story is getting even more bizarre

The story of Nicholas Berg in Iraq is getting weird.

Here’s an excerpt:

First, what has been given as Berg’s college background and how he came to run a one-man communications firm seems a little strange if not outright preposterous. It was reported that Nick Berg attended four different colleges: the last was the University of Oklahoma where it is claimed he learned to install radio towers. But Berg never received a college diploma. Media reports said his one-man company was called Prometheus Methods Tower Service Inc. Reality check: it is virtually impossible to obtain such technical work as installing radio towers without a Professional Engineering license, let alone not having a college degree!

Prometheus by the way, was a mythological character who was punished by Zeus for steeling fire from the gods and giving it to man.

The other odd thing is Abu Musab al-Zarqawi apparently had some access to Mr. Berg’s computer and computer passwords prior to this incident. This whole thing doesn’t smell right.
