Iraqi detainee wears same outfit as Berg!!
Edited on Fri May-21-04 11:06 AM by L.A.dweller
There are similarities (actually they are exactly the same) in the outfits worn by the prisoners at Abu Ghraib prison and the one that N. Berg was dressed in in the beheading video. Please see Washington Post abuse photos by clicking on the link.



According to military officials Saddam's nephew was involved in the beheading. This may only be a distraction to get our attention away from the new abuse photos.

1. The outfits are barely even similar
the home-made satin peach colored coverall they dressed berg in is quite different from a cotton blend govt. issue blaze orange prison jump suit.

2. Are you being sarcastic?
Peach colored?

4. Nope
The Iraqi's outfit has a distinguishable collar (Berg's clearly did not) and Berg's sleeves stopped at the elbows.

5. Berg was wearing a prison suit made one of our off-shore contractors
You know, we have a lot of things made in India and China...reason for the silky sheen. ;-)

8. Yes. "Hey, I just escaped and those who
had me in custody are going to deny that they ever did despite the fact that there is evidence to prove otherwise."
