we bring in retired navy captain chuck nash, he's now a fox news military analyst. u.s./russia at war with each other, that's an overstatement at this point. but it sure looks like it right now, if you go 30,000 feet above syria. >> yeah, if you go 30,000 feet above syria and look down, what you actually see is a unique situation. you've got the united states trying to undermine a sitting government and you have the russians trying to withstand a rebel assault against a sitting government, which is sort of a role reversal where we normally come down on these things. liz: russia is doubling arsenal and the airstrikes. the u.s. threw in 50 tons of ammunition. i'm wondering, captain nash, if somehow shoulder-fired missiles or surface-to-air missiles get into the region, bring down a russian warplane and suddenly it's the u.s. versus america rather than isis versus assad or the russians versus isis, et cetera? >> yeah, that has escalation written all over it. the potential for this to mushroom out of control is fairly high. if you look at where the united states and our alli

captain chuck nash is with me of the u.s. navy. 28 americans, five polish national lost their lives. they have stopped searching for the ship, looking for signs of live. how does it happen in the modern age with all the tech tools that we have? >> tech doesn't help you out much, deirdre. when you have 40 to 60-foot waves and 100 plus not winds. why we can't find the ship. it had automatic location tran ponder like a aircraft, is it has coordinates and other elements. you can go up on marine traffic.com and see any ship over 300 gross tons in the world because they're all out there squawking, putting out their information. that is why we got last reported positions because it came off of el faro's ais system. we know about where that occurred. finding the ship will be completely different thing. it took us decades to find titanic and we knew where it went down. deirdre: why did the ship set sail, everyone from us, and local channels talked about hurricane joaquin coming in? >> the day they were to leave jacksonville, around mi

want to bring back in captain chuck nash.aptain, getting our money from you today. 2030, couple dozen on the ground, how do they interface with russians and how do we split up the country, are we in raqqa or near raqqa, make sense of what our role could be, captain? >> those are all very good questions before, bill. as i said before i hope we thought this thing through because we'll be advising people who are fighting against the regime. those are the people who the russians are bombing right now. there is also a war against isis that russia says it's fighting isis. so there are multiple factions and multiple conflicts going on. we're not all on the same team here. so -- bill: are you suggesting the russians and putin is there, you wonder if we would be making the moves if he had not made moves he made last couple months? that the people we're sporting could be bombed by the russians? is that the suggestion here? >> they have been being bombed by the russians and united states through the state department has made protests to

retired navy captain chuck nash joins me. hi, captain nash. >> hey, arthel. >> before we get to the putin factor, you say the u.s. and saudi arabia, along with turkey are at odds dispute secretary kerry's visit. why? >> because at the same time secretary kerry is down talking to the saudis about supporting groups that are fighting isis, one of the red lines that the president drew was that assad must go. that's why the saudis, qatar and other gulf arabs all signed onto the coalition because they are primarily anti- assassad. at the same time secretary kerry is talking to the russian foreign minister about assad being part of a political solution even if that political solution is for him to transfer power to a new government. so we're on both sides of the teter totter, it's a balancing act. >> and it is the putin factor, putin wants assad to be part of the transition in fact, right? >> absolutely. putin has never given up his support of the assad government and he sees anything short of assad remaining in power to manage that

. >> chuck nash, also a foch news military analyst. good to see you both. >> good to be with us. let's start here. in the end, will the region, america, be better off with a deal in place and how confident are you that iran will follow the rules and regulations outlined in the agreement? >> there's actually those of two separate questions. i this i we would be better if the deal were followed. i do think will deal will be followed? no. and the reason why i say that is because look at what iranians are doing. look at what they just did last week. they launched a ballistic missile and then when called on it said no, that doesn't violate a plan of action, that just violate you and actions. and by the way, an older version of u.n. sanctions, not the current version on the table? >> right. but they are developing ballistic missiles that are sized to deliver nuclear warheads all over the middle east. it is like buying a ferrari to buy groceries. no, you buy a ferrari to go racing. >> the chairman of the house affairs committee, let me share your quote then get your reaction. it has bee

joining me now, judy miller, and chuck nash.captain nash, hillary sounding hawkish for someone who is running in a liberal contest. >> yes, i think that we all should step back from this, we laid down too many red lines, and no-fly zone, at-this-point, is to use metaphor like sands of grain -- grains of sand in an an hour glass, each represents an option of what you could to, if you don't have a plan you let them on the bottom you only have a couple left, i think that the best used by date stamp on no-fly zone has expired a long time ago. charles: do you prefer next president step it up? boots on ground? >> i think we don't actually have a place in the syrian civil war right now. you know we're over the cliff, hitting the brakes, does not matter. only person with a plan in this, today is vladimir putin. we given this thing up to try to takat back now just, it just used bad ideas at a wrong time. charles: that would turn colin powell thing upside down in terms of breaking it and owning it. vladimir putin owns this thing. hillary

listen to how fox news military analyst and retired navy captain chuck nash characterized the possible danger yesterday. >> this has escalation written all over it. the potential for this to mushroom out of control is actually fairly high. so when russian citizens start dying, when the bombs start going off there, the russians are going to look at the united states, and we're going to look for some kind of a tit-for-tat relationship. liz: relationship is putting it mildly. amid the tangled geopolitics in the middle east, there is another matter of national security, oil. kevin book testified in front of the committee on policy. he's the managing director of clear view managing partners. we've got him in an exclusive interview, what did you say? >> last week's discussion was about the size of the strategic petroleum reserve. the energy package of the last major disruption in the 1970s. 700 million barrels of crude oil there for our refiners but looking like a great big funding source to congress and people think it should be down sized because we have much more secure supply from many m

joining me, captain chuck nash, fox news military analyst. ric grenell, former advisor to the u.n., fox news contributor. james carafano, heritage vice president and of foreign defense policy. thanks for joining us. captain nash, let me start with you. it is impressive they formed the sting operation, five years going from very little knowledge to do this but on other hand main players got away, right? >> which indicates, melissa, intelligence services in russia are probably involved in this because moldova is a pretty shaky place. always seems in the five years of stings which have been fairly successful, seems the big fish get away and big fish maintain hold on nuclear material. all they have received so far are samples. melissa: rick, this looks just like a matter of time before it actually happens. people with nuclear materials working hard to sell them to extremists this is going to happen? >> yeah, we no longer have to worry about state-sponsored terrorism. we have to worry about individuals, gaining access on the black market to litera

captain chuck nash with me now, so are we inching closer to a conflict, a direct one with russia?ime troops from opposite sides of the table start to close on each other, there's always the opportunity for miscalculation. in this case the russians have been violating the 1994 agreement to not put troops directly on the border. now all the of things with the crimea, latvia, lithuania or estonia are getting very, very nervous, they're asking for support. article 5 plays in, mutual defense. so we'll see. deirdre: okay, we'll see. is this part of some sort of revisionist move by the u.s. because perhaps we didn't act quickly enough to check russia in syria? >> you put your finger on it. that's it. we're playing catch-up ball all over the place including now sending a destroyer inside the 12 mile limit from an artificially constructed island that is millions of tons of sand on top of a coral reef that china is claiming. trying to play catch-up ball, when do you, that you tend to use ideas that are great at one time but time stamp has expired and using what was a good idea and now becau

captain chuck nash is a fox news military analyst and retired naval captain.h sides represented here but, brandon, from what you know these new regulations require that people will have to register their drones. is this going to ruin your business? >> no. well, first, thank you very much for having me on. i think this is a next step for the faa in a long series of steps they've been taking to regulate commercial drones and consumer drones. their mission is really about safety, and they're really trying to make sure that if an accident does happen, that we can identify the person responsible for it. you know, measures in the business of providing commercial drone services and -- measure's in the business of providing commercial drone services. we're bound by regulation it is faa has already put on us. liz: correct. >> frankly, with a million new drones potentially flying in the air over the holidays, we're just as concerned about a hobbyist potentially endangering our operations or even a commercial airliner. liz: well, that is the issue, captain nash, and you

chuck nash is here. welcome, captain.at the stunning numbers and the reality of the taliban taking over a big city there, and a massive situation that led to the death of 22 people in a doctors without borders hospital. now the man is to try to get to president to leave 5,000 troops there. what do you think about all of this? >> it depends on the mission. if the mission is to train afghanistan forces you could look at training as something that never ends. you keep training all of the time and forever. so the point is if you are leaving 5,000 people to do the training what their mission should be is counterterrorism operations and the raining and the training should be to build up the trainers. you train the trainers in other words. you don't overtrain them. you train them to fight the fight which is a counter insurgency or terrorism operation. we will learn a lot on how good the afghanistan forces are based on this battle. the taliban came in from three axes and took it over and we will see how they do in pushing them ou
