The same Berg video is watched by all with different conclusions
as to what was seen. I wasn't going to comment on this, because I won't be taking a trip into hell to watch,but find it interesting that so many people can see the same video and reach such different conclusions. It reminds me of the inaccuracy of witnesses at a crime scene. The gunman wore a hat and was 6 feet tall. No, he was bald and 5 foot 6.

Some say he jerked, some say he didn't move at all.
There was a lot of pooled blood, there wasn't enough blood.
The sound was in sinc, the sound wasn't in sinc.
There were Russian words spoken, there weren't.
The orange jumpsuit is significant, the orange jumpsuit isn't.
The white chair is important, the white chair isn't.
Gold rings against Islam? Gold rings commonplace.

BTW, wasn't the al queda guy claimed to be in the video also claimed by the CIA to have been killed over one year ago?

Just some thoughts on this regarding why it is so difficult to get anyone to agree on anything anymore. No one seems to have the same perceptions of events anymore. Everything is colored by preconceptions. Nothing new there, of course, but it certainly stands out in the reactions to this video.
