                                 Israel

  Mr. McCONNELL. Last night, five people were killed by a Palestinian 
gunman outside Tel Aviv. It was the fifth time in just 2 weeks that 
unprovoked violence has shattered lives on Israel's streets. Eleven 
innocent victims are now dead. They include people of different faiths. 
Several were Arab Israelis.
  As Jews, Christians, and Muslims prepare for some of the holiest days 
of the year, families in Israel are in mourning. I know I speak for all 
of our colleagues in offering them the Senate's deepest sympathies.
  America, like our Arab and Israeli friends, must remain clear-eyed. 
The war against terrorism will not fight itself. We cannot afford to be 
complacent; we must continue to invest in the common mission of 
security and peace; and we must always stand firmly with our ally 
Israel.
