          EXTENDING CONDOLENCES TO THE FAMILY OF NICHOLAS BERG

  Mr. FRIST. Mr. President, I wish to extend my condolences to the 
family of Nicholas Berg who, as we all know, was murdered yesterday in 
Iraq by kidnappers. We grieve for him, and we grieve for his family.
  At the same time, the actions of his murderers are a reminder to us 
of what all our soldiers on a daily basis are undergoing. We must 
endeavor to bring these terrorists to justice as we work to bring 
democracy, peace, and the rule of law to Iraq.
  Let us keep in mind all of this in the days and weeks ahead, which 
will be very challenging times for us all.

                          ____________________
