Default Using the American Civilan Killed is

outrageous, IMO, in her latest ZT bs

http://zetatalk.com/index/zeta97.htm

I know she has a political 'hatred' whatever, but to use this kid, that what was done to him, is simply IMO outrageous and wrong.



end rant

BA, I don't think this post is political, just pointing out that she uses the 'gov't elite' stuff all the time, these days, again IMO is going 'over the line'

She picked it up from a GLPer, (I won't use his name) who so disgusted me over this issue, I nearly stopped going there. Then I remembered, It's not the board it's the person.

Anywho, what offended me was he ignored the fact it was a human tragedy, and started multiple conspiracy threads based around the event. many cussed him for it.

Whatever the politics Nick Berg was a human being.

Thank you. No I didn't know she got it from GLP (but that figures!) doesn't matter, she posted the ZETAS take on it

Yes, Nick Berg was a human being, all politics are off in a tradegy like this.

arghhhhh

Oh, and since I don't really go to GLP much, did she c/p the thing, the part that was SUPPOSED TO BE 'ZETAS TALKING' ?

I don't believe it. This Zeta crap has gone way too far.

This makes me feel sick.

Didn't Iraq never get invaded becuase the Zetas said so and they are never wrong? Since Iraq never got invaded how did Berg get killed?

Obviously, it was NASA stock footage.

The usage of something like this for her own purposes is definitely horrendous.

About the conspiracy theory idea with regards to Nick Berg, shes not original. Here is an interesting article and follow-ups from readers regarding the topic. Hope this doesnt get locked though, if linking these articles is wrong I apologize BA.

And with that little remark, Nancy has lost whatever remaining shreds of credibility she had left. :x

New Poster, been lurking for a few years, and now decided to sign up.

Nancy leider and her little Zeta conversations have gone way, way, way overboard this time, it was bad enough carrying all of this on, and now she has to do something like this?

It makes me sick to the stomach, it really does, that poor man, and his poor family, have been through hell & back.

And now Nancy is making it worse for everyone, including non-family members.

her site should be taken off air right this minute, before she does some damage to somebody else really soon.

Sick, sick Woman.

Well, it's political, controversial and not astronomy related, so I can see the BA being a bit put off by it.

And, having read it, it reads like a lot of other conspiracy theories. Lots of conjecture, light on facts, and all sorts of presumed motives (why did the military lie?) and leading statements (a doctor would almost certainly tell you that...). In short, tripe.

Very true actually and thats what I thought when I read it. The purpose was not to start a discussion about it or claim it was credible, just to show that shes neither original nor alone in her wacky conspiracy theories.
