I see a direct correlation with Michael Berg's beliefs and his son's beheading. It seems that all the liberal hogwash that spews out of his mouth gave his son a false sense of security. Nick went over there thinking, "they aint so bad, they are just trying to fight for thier beliefs. Just because I am a jew would never be reason enough for them to kill me. That would just be right wing rhetoric."

He painfully learned that they dont care about his beliefs.
