[0:04] program at 11:30.

[0:09] >> Now, a [music] special 1-hour edition of

[0:11] America tonight. One day to the

[0:13] deadline. Can anything stop the war?

[0:15] [music] We'll go live to Saudi Arabia.

[0:18] Hear the latest from Baghdad. Look

[0:21] behind the [music] scenes at a tense

[0:22] White House, and visit a small town in

[0:25] Alabama.

[0:27] How real is the Iraqi [music] terrorist

[1:24] Yemenis, so are the Tunisians. We don't

[1:30] is more than diplomacy.

[1:33] It needs something in the nature of a

[1:35] Dan Rather joins us tonight. Good
