A new puppet along the lines of the old one to keep order in this country.

6. I seem to recall that this site was first with the Berg story

Or something like that. They seem to be a commercial site, but they had discovered the original Berg video during its brief one hour stay on an "Al-Queda" site (which had a London registration, I think). This was one of the reasons some people have thought the Berg video was black ops - it seemed funny that certain groups found the video so quickly, like they had been tipped off.

Anyway, I am just going from memory. If this is true, it may indicate that this story is a CIA plant, whether it is true or not.

His health took a turn for the worse - I guess it can happen to anybody, but given current conditions in the middle east it seems probable that nature could have been given a bit of a nudge.

8. I wish you could provide some back-up,...

,...for your memory about that site having been temporarily set up and registered in London. That's impactful info, if true.

No other media outlet has picked this up yet, so it appears to be just a rumor at this time.
