Nick Berg was not Jewish.

Why was his funeral held at a conservative Jewish synagogue?

A hot and hazy afternoon became momentarily cool Friday when a gentle breeze blew clouds over Kesher Israel Congregation and the surrounding land. The clouds themselves weren’t unusual, but their appearance moments before a memorial service for murdered West Chester resident Nicholas Berg made it seem as if nature itself was calling for a moment of silent reflection.

Berg, the 26-year-old whose beheaded body was found along a Baghdad road last weekend, was buried Friday morning. His memorial service mid-afternoon drew hundreds of mourners to Kesher Israel, located off Pottstown Pike in West Goshen.

Oh puh leeze. He had no business being over there. His Dad is a commie. Having said that, let's find the a holes that did this and string them up.
