02:02 - Hi. - Hi.
02:27 - Well, it's good to be back in Charleston,
02:29 but I want to just, first of all,
02:31 say a few words about what's happening in Israel right now.
02:36 And needless to say,
02:40 I'm completely outraged by what has taken place.
02:43 We are looking at extreme acts of terrorism
02:48 that must be condemned in no uncertain terms.
02:52 There is absolutely no justification for terrorism.
02:57 The President and I take very seriously
02:59 our commitment to Israel and to the people of Israel
03:03 to support them and, in particular,
03:05 to give Israel what it needs to defend itself.
03:08 One of our highest priorities, of course,
03:11 is the safety and well-being of American citizens,
03:14 and that will continue to be among our highest priorities.
03:17 It is also critically important that, as we have been,
03:20 we will stay in constant communication
03:22 and contact with our allies, with our Israeli partners,
03:26 with members of Congress,
03:27 as we have been doing in these last few days.
03:30 In fact, this morning, I was on a call
03:33 that the President was on with Prime Minister Netanyahu,
03:36 which is now one of many calls that have taken place,
03:38 to restate our commitment that is unwavering
03:42 to stand with Israel and the Israeli people.
03:45 So, thank you.
