joining us retired four stare army general chief of staff, general jack keane.anks for being here. start with ukraine. this is unending trail of rhetoric swept aside by putin and the, and the obama white house persists but to know effect s that likely to change? is it soon to end? >> i doubt it, lou. i mean, the u.s. and the white house's policy is deescalation of the russians and to try to get them on the exit ramp so to speak. the fact of the matter is that rhetoric is encouraging putin to escalate. the exact opposite happened in crimea and now it is happening in eastern ukraine. and clearly, what we're seeing right before our eyes is phase one of a possible military campaign because the towns and cities now being influenced by special operations forces and security forces from russia, all have rail heads and there are airports associated with them which would be key items for an invasion force to have to pass through if they're going to go throughout eastern ukraine. so this is phase one. i think he wants to use intimidation, this is putin and force the kiev

. >> jack keane is here.orning to. fox news analyst. about the big point o'reilly is making there? agree? >> he is right on the mark there. when american leadership is strong in the world, the world is a safer and better place probably. and when it is weak and it has been for a number of years, the world is by far a more dangerous place. our friends don't know if we will back them up and they are prone to do something rash and our advisaries take haven't as well. >> out of ukraine, o'reilly was going about a series of events and mentioned syria, iran and now the matter with russia. do you see the thread that connects these events? >> this is a dissengagement. it isn't acting on solid intelligence in benghazi. we know who did it but we have not captured them. the rise in the middle east and now in africa. and putin is taking advantage of american weakness to further his goal. >> i want to go over to the map. we did this the other day. we want to refresh the minds of the viewers. crimea is where it started. advance it one time. this is wh

joining us now is former army vice chief of staff general jack keane and military analyst.nd i thank you for having me. lou: secretary of ste john kerry. i've never mean quite a fuselage like that of threat by a high government official against a number of nations. >> i think of this as pent-up frustrations of dealing with this for weeks now and the fact of the matter is that we have made no progress in the intimidation and the threat of what he is doing is very real. and he is moving forward and we are not. he knows full well that we do not have any robust actions on the table and all we have is rhetoric. and he is offering more rhetoric and stern outrageous talk to try to stop this and none of that is going to work. that is the harsh reality of it. and it's obvious that the ukrainians feel very differently about it. they are in their i may have to add this to the calculus. they can intimidate a little ay and the special operations forces. but the fact of the matter is that if he occupies and invades the ukrainians will fight. and they will not give this up. just like they

with me now former rb general jack keane also a fox news military analysts. the president says we will have eras in our quiver but do we need to take action and what kind? >> and windows our actions have been feeble to impose any restraint on putin. our policy is the escalation and do not provoke putin. by believe the policy has failed and do not fear adverse consequences but the policy we use right now is inviting adverse consequences but so he should impose very tough economic sanctions. the head negative gdp growth and probably next quarter losing capital investment if we hit the economic and financial banking system that would take the toll. also a greater toll. there is much we can do the gradual incremental approach is a failed strategy. ashley: all of those sanctions could also serve as an excuse for putin to continue here is aggressive stance blaming though last. it could backfire? >> that fear paralyzes us into inaction in. with this aggressiveness with to but the markers on the table if you do that. >> not to have the troops bear down and at the sam

here with his thoughts on the situation, military analyst, general jack keane. there are so many different flash points going on here, but there are pro russian supporters who have taken over several ukrainian cities. how do you feel about that? will it stop? will it advance? >> i think putin is on his way to skafsing his object tys here. they're all in cities that make a difference, there's air field and road networks. so there's a military connection to what he's doing as well. but the fact of the matter is, we see now very clearly, things that have will be told before but you it's right in front of us, that the ukrainian military is so feeble and so weak, they're not going to be able to take any areas back. he's going to be able to get that kiev government to move towards him. what he has all wanted her and what started this crisis is when jankovic ran out, putin seized crimea, but what he has always desired is to turn that kiev government towards him. he will only invade if there was some capability that could take away what he's been able to achieve and it

martha: military analyst general jack keane and former vice-chair of the army.ing all of this, what do you think? >> well, first of all the cia main a huge mistake doing unclassified talking points. then they lost control of the content. when they're producing classified information and reports, those reports stand. and that's number one. number two, they were absolutely on the mark within less than 24 hours that aas, ansar al sharia was responsible for the attack on the consulate and they were dead wrong in suggesting that protests or demonstrators were a part of this. what still mystifies me and i think, you know, mike morell has a great reputation in government service and i think what he is trying to tell us is that in a sense, he got contrary information from the station chief whose on the ground, talking to the security people at the consulate. if there had been a protest, everybody would have known about it because what was happening in cairo. those events would have been connected. if there had been a protest with people with west, everybody would have k
