think the framework of that announcement will be something like this lou united states will agree this will be the headlined all over the world, united states will agree to withdraw all troops by the end of 2020, or pretty close to that period less than 18 months from now with the following conditions. one, there must be an agreement between the afghan government and taliban those negotiations will begin in oslo almost immediately following the negotiated peace announcement. two, the taliban guarantees that the al-qaida will not reestablish a safe han in afghanistan they've got some presence there but it is not form mid nlble none of us apply that can't trust taliban the other one is taliban guarantees that they will destroy isis they don't have

about capability to do that as isis has grown inside of all of us we will not move from 8 -- 600 to zero despite the fact that is proclaimed as end state until such time as those conditions are met. >> general it sounds to me, and affirmative me m my decision sounds like cynicism. >> here before allow. >> yes, we have. >> a lot of years. >> 20 years engagement this president to great credit said he wants to bring our took place home put the burden on the nations upon whom legitimately belongings he has to a clear a lot of brush at pentagon, and there is a -- an abiding inertia would argue relentlessly for another two decade we need troops there to control the situation that we

have yet to control. is it not time to either dry an -- destroy an enemy or get away from that particular war zone? >> yeah i mean i -- am i am sympathetic to everything you said 8 years incredibly long time to be involved in one engagement like this here is the issue, why do we go there? causal wallace there launched attacks on two embassies in africa uuss kohl and 9/11 for 18 years we -- protested al-qaida ran into pakistan we prevented them from establishing a safe hatchen attacking us again an aspiration we can't talk fwuch but we have a the ability there that is not not military

has foot inside of al-qaida inside pakistan conduct operations against them on regular basis for one of those that we killed osama bin laden so our concern we talked about it, like me got it, we worn out by war in afghanistan but we don't want al-qaida to attack us again, we don't want them to establish a safe haven what would it take to do that can we get forces down to smaller level guarantee that will not happen we are doing the same in syria, with a modest amount of forces less in yemen libya also somalia only places islamists want to attack us american people. >> and i understand, and i appreciate your -- your construct of the situation. i would aeld to it one other dimension to me is fundamental to whatever we would do suffragely we proud i don't

know how many generals overall the course of the past two decade we have people arguing about are we -- we criticizing our men and women in form the unform our soldiers i am not i am pushing generals questioning strategy you talk asymmetric warfare think of trillions of dollars this country spent in iraq in afghanistan, the peanuts, of a bunch of ragtag jihadists p spent, general what we're doing is unsustainable clearly and sooner we recognize that het a strategy to destroy the enemy, or come home, we are in deep, deep trouble. >> yeah i mean i agree, i said that with lindsey graham in op-ed -- the first or second sentence we said this thing isn't sustainable particularly at. >> but i do think and worth

enough state focus on those radical islamist organizations who had design on to us kill us. most dochl not but the five that do i think we have to keep our took on their neck. >> thank you so much pressure it as also a good talking to you. wewewewewe geico makes it easy to get help when i need it. with licensed agents available 24-7, it's not just easy. it's having-jerome-bettis- on-your-flag-football-team easy. go get 'em, bus! ohhhh!

lou: breaking news, justice department inspector general report this one right here --

reveals new details about a private meeting disgraced former fbi director comey had with president-elect trump in 2017, according to this report comey former director national intelligence james clapper former cia director john brennan former nsa director mike rodgers met with president-elect trump weeks before his inauguration after that meeting comey met privately with president-elect to discuss salacious allegations in the so-called steel dossier the fraudulent document that concocted by christopher steele top fbi and intel brass believed allegations or pretended to even though christopher sfooel had given every reason to have absolutely no confidence whatsoever about its contents, after that private meeting between comey and the

president comey took notes. it seems to be his practice before reporting back to top agency officials working on "crossfire hurricane" investigation joining me byron york chief political correspondent for the washington examiner fox business issue contributor author of much what have we know about that meeting great to have you with us. >> hi, lou thanks for having me. >> this document is to me as i said at the outset of this broadcast turgid, dense obtuse, and it seems a document designed to obfuscate rather than veal. your thoughts. >> that is why we are here to make it -- more read nl understandable for everybody you are right to focus on this meeting took place on january 6, 2017, you tell me had been all controversy about russia, and the intelligence community created a report on russia efforts to interfere with 2016

election. so on the 6th of january they go to trump tower, to as a group, to present the report to president-elect trump by reprieve agreement after they do that all leave the room except comey comey and trump meet one-on-one, and comey tells the president-elect there is this allegation that in 2013 you were in a moscow hotel room with prostitutes, russian intelligence taped it all recorded it all. and you know the president is -- is stunned by this. and in the past comey has said that the only reason he did this was they wanted to tell the president like that this was out there that it might get reported in the press there is this crazy story about you that is out there. what we see in this new report is they meticulously planned this moment in which they would hit trump with this information. comey had met with his top

officials and what they call "crossfire hurricane" team beforehand made a plan comey would immediately right down everything he could remember from this he went down to fbi vehicle, and there was a secure laptop waiting for him. he says that he started writing as vehicle began moving, went over to fbi headquarters in new york, and there was a secure video tell conference set up for him to talk with "crossfire hurricane" supervisors, plus top fbi officials about what trump had answered to these dossier allegations. >> all amounts to -- >> nothing. >> absolutely nothing. >> yeah. >> and mean while they had through fraud triggered upon comey's firing an investigation by the special counsel. you know i have always thought of michael rodgers, the admiral running in say as hero

of the piece because he has been so -- in each instance he has been absent from the conspiratorial initiatives of this three stooges that is clapper, and brennan, and comey. but here he is in this meeting. that is an anomaly over the course of this run. >> i think we should tell viewers that is the first part of this story. the second part of the story was the leak of the fact that the top intel officials had briefed the president-elect about salacious information so meeting takes place on january 6th. on january 10th cnn reports exclusive nation's top intel officials have briefed the president-elect about embarrassing personal information that was gathered by a former british intelligence -- >> this was concocted by

hillary clinton funded the democratic national committee funded -- >> o yes. >> and fbi funded fiction writing on the part of christopher steele. >> this leak was absolutely critical because it gave the news hook to report dossier, really. >> can i -- >> i'm sorry. >> the intelligence officials think so important they have to brief president-elect then why should not public know about it there it all came out. >> there it all came out one question never asked nor answered, if our intelligence agencies so well funded so well staffed, so cleverly led worth one wit what have we spend on them why couldn't they have picked up the phone called moscow station, of the cia and said was donald trump there on date xx, andy? >> this is preposterous

leadership preposterous treacherous leaders of institution and agencies upon sch this nation's security the depends. it is frightening to the bone isn't it byron. >> earlier in the show i think you said top intel leaders believed or pretend to do believe, in this dossier, the fact is we know now that they had meticulously line by line tried to verifier the allegations in the dossier not just moscow sex stuff but all the allegations of collusion the like, and they nevverified any major allegations intel chiefs knew that january 2017 when they presented to it the president. >> at the are liars they are, in my book traitors by a ron york i don't request you to concur to agree but do i thank you for all as usual your
