| 0:07.0 | Here's John Bachelor. |
| 0:12.0 | To Seth Franzman of the Foundation for the Defense of democracies and the Jerusalem |
| 0:17.2 | Post in Israel after the night of bombardment by Iran. The world leaders are reacting severally. However, it is |
| 0:27.8 | striking how the voices that were most critical of Israel days ago about the Hamas aggression |
| 0:36.2 | are now in standing what appears to be in total support of Israel after it was attacked drones and missiles by the Islamic |
