| 0:00.0 | Thanks for listening to the Town Hall Review with Hugh Hewitt podcast, bringing to you the best voices on the stories and issues that matter. Here's another piece I'll trust you enjoy. Today I'm delighted to welcome Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu back to the White House. It's a wonderful feeling and a wonderful event. We had fantastic talks, and thank you very much with your staff. |
| 0:26.7 | He's the first foreign head of state to visit during our administration, and Bibi, I want to say it's an honor to have you with us. |

| 2:06.1 | All Jerusalem stone right from nearby, and it's something that's very special, |
| 2:12.1 | and recognized Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights, |
