[0:00] Good night.
[0:27] The aviation security bill becomes law.
[0:29] It will not be in effect until well
[0:31] after Thanksgiving and Christmas. We'll
[0:34] take a closer look tonight at the
[0:36] special forces in Afghanistan.
[0:38] And we have been listening to Dallas.
[0:41] Very proud and moving on.
[0:46] From ABC News, this is World News
[0:50] Tonight with Peter Jennings reporting

[1:45] the CIA is now spending and handing out
[1:48] hundreds of thousands of dollars. What
[1:50] they're looking for is not only
[1:52] information about Osama bin Laden, but
