Nick Berg was an American Jewish businessman born in 1978, who sought a telecommunications contract in Iraq during the American invasion. He was kidnapped and beheaded by militias in May 2004 in retaliation for events at Abu Ghraib prison. This incident marked the first in a series of killings of foreigners in Iraq and garnered global media attention due to the widespread circulation of the murder video online. Nick's father blamed George W. Bush for his son's death.
