In the interview from outside his home in West Chester, Pennsylvania, a seething Michael Berg also said his 26-year-old son, a civilian contractor, probably would have felt positive, even about his executioners, until the last minute.



"I am sure that he only saw the good in his captors until the last second of his life," Berg said. "They did not know what they were doing. They killed their best friend."

But CBS News National Security Correspondent David Martin reports on what is turning into a bizarre mystery with a connection to 9/11.

U.S. officials say the FBI questioned Berg in 2002 after a computer password Berg used in college turned up in the possession of Zaccarias Moussaoui, the al Qaeda operative arrested shortly before 9/11 for his suspicious activity at a flight school in Minnesota.

"Berg said. "They did not know what they were doing. They killed their best friend."

Yahoo and Reuter's are not getting the fathers quote exactly right.

I and my husband twice now today wathing FoxNewsLive saw and heard the father say; "They do not or did not know what they were doing. He was a friend to or of the Al Queda.

The father never flinched or stuttered or said I meant to say the Iraqi's, but the News Anchor Rick came on and said he meant to say a friend of the Iraqi's.

Was Berg the "best friend" of al qaida???? The dad is saying this. I heard on the Glenn Beck show this morning that he (the dad) was listed on Freepers list as being a member of A.N.S.W.E.R. Can anybody dig that up?
