Freeper Post From May 7th: Here Is The Enemy - Lists Michael Berg of

Prometheus Methods Tower Service.

My tin foil hat just got another layer of foil. Scroll way down the list to find Michael S. Berg listed as a freeper enemy.

HERE IS THE ENEMY -- they have posted their names

Here you are, FReepers. Here is the enemy. Working in conjunction with A.N.S.W.E.R., they have given us their names.

Michael S. Berg, Teacher, Prometheus Methods Tower Service, Inc.,
West Chester, PA

Here is an article about Nick Berg from May 9

Parents agonize over their son missing in Iraq

Nick Berg, 26, owns a business called Prometheus Methods Tower Service Inc. He climbs communications towers to inspect the antennas, the electrical connections and the structure.

But when he returned to Iraq on March 14, the company had no work, so Berg began traveling and networking and found some.

He usually called home once a day and e-mailed several times; Michael Berg is his business manager, and they needed to stay in touch.

The Bergs heard from their son on April 6, 7, 8 and 9. He said he would come home through Jordan, Turkey or Kuwait, whatever looked safest and most feasible.

1. So?
You figure they were so clever they traced the family tree and figured out that Michael's Republican son Nick was in Iraq and therefore let's plot to kill him?

Any chance of any logic here?

Sign me,

Disgusted.

2. Even stranger than Michael Berg's name on the list...
....is the list itself, especially its length. With that many "enemies" do these people have ANY friends?

3. If my name was listed in this thread
and I started receiving threatening communications and/or they contacted MY boss, I'd be on the phone to my attorney asking my attorney to initiate action to sue the ever-lovin' shit out of these clowns.

Unbelievable. Who the HELL are THEY to "play Nixon" and attempt to ruin people's lives because they have a political disagreement with them?

6. man!
I'm relatively new to posting, but have been hitting DU for a few months now. I always read some of the freepers posts that are posted here, but this is the first time I actually went to the site. I gotta say that is some of the cruelest, delusional, downright scariest crap I've ever read. Gonna go take a shower now...

7. Nazis. They've ALWAYS been with us
It's just that the System designed by the Founding Fathers always stopped them and other extremists from gaining power.

But NOW, the Constitution lies in a smouldering and useless heap, scracely worth the paper is printed on and only useful as Rationale for Tyrants ("Your are FREE, my slaves! The Constitution says so!").

And you are looking at the Next Nazis. You have seen their "true selves" as you wandered in their Animal Cage.

Now that you know, don't be caught like a German Jew in 1938 when Crunch Time comes.

You KNOW what they will do to us if the Busheviks finish parasitizing Amerikan Law Enforcement to the point where the Freepers will get KKK in Mississippi in 1937 immunity from investigation and prosecution.

If THAT happens, these cowards will become brave enough to bring their fantasies into reality.

Absent that, they are as spineless as Nazis ever were. But look what the Nazis did after THEY became the government.

4. It reminds me of a witch hunt.
They are telling on people who may have nothing to do with any group except their name on a list like me. I thought I put my name on the "not in my name" list but I couldn't find it with the link given on the FR thread. What that person is doing is very scary. Didn't they do things like what they're doing in Germany? You know, where the citizens ratted others out who were against the Nazi party line?

5. Maybe this is a typo or other mistake, but

these 2 stories conflict.

From May 9

The Bergs heard from their son on April 6, 7, 8 and 9. He said he would come home through Jordan, Turkey or Kuwait, whatever looked safest and most feasible.

http://www.centredaily.com/mld/centredaily/news/8626951.htm

From May 12

Before extremists apparently kidnapped and killed him, authorities detained Berg in Iraq for as long as two weeks in late March and early April.

His parents said they did not hear from him between March 24 and April 9.

Officials Dispute Family Claim That He Was in U.S. Custody

An American civilian who was beheaded in Iraq had been visited three times by FBI agents while in the custody of Iraqi police, but he was never held by U.S. forces, contrary to claims by his family, U.S. officials in Baghdad said today.

The family of Nicholas Berg, 26, of West Chester, Pa., continued to insist today, however, that he had been had been held for 13 days by U.S. authorities in Iraq, a detention that family members said caused him to miss a scheduled departure from Iraq. Shortly after he was released, Berg was apparently captured by Islamic extremists.

JASON STRAZIUSO
ASSOCIATED PRESS

Berg spoke to his parents March 24 and said he would return home March 30. But he was detained by Iraqi police at a checkpoint in Mosul on March 24. At some point during his 13-day detention, U.S. officials took custody of him, his father Michael Berg said, and he was not allowed to make phone calls or contact a lawyer.

9. March 7 not May (for those keeping a timeline)
That alarmed me when I first saw it. Bunch of sick fucks turning people's names into the FBI and Homeland Security because they dared support Justice for the Palestinians. That's what that statement was for.

Thanks Zorra

11. Thanks, Tinoire, wrong date
Edited on Wed May-12-04 03:37 PM by Zorra
I was not intending that post to infer that the freeps had anything to do with this tragedy. It was to point out that Michael Berg's name was on this list as an "enemy" working with ANSWER, as well as the nature of the list in itself.

13. These people are no one's enemy. They are fellow citizens of
those that post in freeperville. Could they be guilty of stalking?
