01:35:28,322 --> 01:35:31,348
Good evening. I'm Howard K. Smith
with the state of the war.

2
01:35:31,425 --> 01:35:34,053
In the Middle East,
a dramatic breakthrough...

3
01:35:34,128 --> 01:35:36,926
as the occupied city of Jerusalem
saw a combined force...

4
01:35:36,998 --> 01:35:40,729
of Arab and Israeli commandoes
briefly liberate the Wailing Wall...

5
01:35:40,801 --> 01:35:44,293
before being driven back by
counter-attacking Visitor troops.

6
01:35:44,906 --> 01:35:48,535
Closer to home,
news from Los Angeles, California...

7
01:35:48,609 --> 01:35:52,067
where strongman Nathan Bates
has solidified his position...

8
01:35:52,246 --> 01:35:54,942
in creating
what is being called an "Open City"...

9
01:35:55,249 --> 01:35:57,877
similar to Lisbon during World War II...

10
01:35:57,952 --> 01:36:01,012
Los Angeles has agreed to
a separate peace.

11
01:36:01,222 --> 01:36:04,214
The Resistance has denounced this peace
as a sham.

12
01:36:04,625 --> 01:36:07,788
From this vantage point,
Los Angeles' future...

13
01:36:07,995 --> 01:36:09,155
remains in doubt.

14
01:36:09,597 --> 01:36:13,260
This week, the Freedom Network
awards the medal of valor...

15
01:36:13,334 --> 01:36:16,963
to 18-year-old Kipper Cordisco
of Cleveland, Ohio.

16
01:36:17,305 --> 01:36:21,264
He organized members of his senior class
into the George Washington Brigade...

17
01:36:21,409 --> 01:36:24,037
and led them into action
at Bear's Point, Kentucky.

18
01:36:24,111 --> 01:36:25,703
They routed an alien patrol...

19
01:36:25,780 --> 01:36:28,681
while heavy fighting continued
in the Appalachian Mountains.

20
01:36:29,016 --> 01:36:30,813
And that's where we stand tonight.

21
01:36:30,985 --> 01:36:33,044
From the Freedom Network ...
