general jack keane, a fox news military analyst, good evening, welcome.to have you here. >> good to be here. >> the additional 130 marines and special ops forces on the ground to assist in this case, what do you make of that decision? >> well, i think it's probably needed assistance with the evacuation, and also to flush out the joint operations center that we have in erbil. in your intro you mentioned june is when they took mosul, emergency request from prime minister maliki for air support. we rejected that. if we had provided that air support then we would have been able to stop isil's advance, because we have the capability to do that. we can't defeat them, we can stop it. there would be no mt. sinjar today. that's tied to that policy decision we made, and we were waiting for political reconciliation while people are dying out there in iraq, and waiting for that reconciliation to take place. i think that was a huge mistake on the administration's part. >> do you believe that we are currently in a third war in iraq? there was an editorial in the wall s

joining us with his own plan, general jack keane is here, what do you think?uld lead a coalition. mostly regional leaders in stopping isis. in fact, when you look at the problem from the military perspective, there are two major things the united states could be involved in. one is to support a ground counter offensive. and as that word implies, the ground count and syrian army. and the iraqi army would coordinate that with israeli tribes. the fact is they have not received much of anything. they need a lot more help than what they're getting. also, this ground counter offensive should be supported by air power close in. when you are fighting in populated areas and fighting very close to the enemy, you need to have air traffic control. we are still taking the ground offensive and that should be in the west in the yeucrates river valley to take back the land that we've lost. the fact of the matter is if we had seen the taste of the iraqi army, to be frank about it, some of them will have to see new leaders put in there. and that -- he supports air power. >> gen

joining me is jack keane, good morning, general. first the news from london. what do you make of that? >> obviously it's what we expected that's of these foreign fighters who travel to syria and train with isis have gone back home and obviously there is something they are picking up in a general sense that there is an attack that is likely. i don't think the attack coming from foreign fighters returning to england or europe or the united states would ever be anything spectacular like we saw on 9/11 more do i think they can sustain these kind of attacks as they did in baghdad and other places in the east in. but they are dangerous and obviously people could be hurt and tragically killed by them. our intelligence services are working hard on the situation. we are very good at detecting these things and the u.k. is excellent at it themselves. i wouldn't be surprised if they are not able to detect what's taking place. martha: why do you say you don't think they are capable of sustained attacks to the extents they are able to pull them off in baghdad? >> you need a

lou: general jack keane, on this broadcast, said they the intelligence estimate is about 70% of the rockets have been destroyed by israeli forces. and so do you concur? >> i do not. i think infiltrating from gaza into israel is largely destroyed. but i think the manufacturing and locations for the longer range missiles have not really been touched. they are deep within heavily populated areas and while 70% of the missiles provided have been fired or destroyed, the vast majority are short range inaccurate missiles that can target the israeli civilian populations and that is the real threat. lou: each of the previous cease-fires, save this one, have been broken by hamas. >> the prospects for long-term cease-fire are zero as long as hamas continues to exist, even if you take the most optimistic assessment of israel's destruction of the rockets. but the fact is is that it's not hamas of capabilities that are the threat but hamas itself. so as long as the structure of this ideology and organization process, the threat to israel persists. lou: jimmy carter in an op-ed saying that hamas should be

. >> thanks very much, eric shaun now more with general jack keane and you heard eric's reporting, do you think it was a mistake to pull the troops out of iraq, could this most recent upset have been avoided? >> well, to a certain degree it could have been avoided, certainly the 2011 presidential decision to remove all our troops, what that denied us, maria is the opportunity for the al qaeda who admitted defeat in 2008 and 2009 because of a surge, when they raise their head again, we would have pounced on them with our counter terrorism forces, also we would train and grow the iraqis. the second key decision in 2012, when isis had moved into syria, clinton, petraeus, the secretary of defense all recommended to president obama to train the syrian army who was the only one that wanted to engage isis, the president said no. in june of this year, when isol moved into mosul so rapidly and surprising most everybody because of the collapse of the iraqi army, maliki desperately asked for air strike assistance and we denied that. if we had been pounding isis for the last two months, i guarant

general jack keane this morning was commenting on the airstrikes and how we have seen incremental airstrikesy the united states. he's saying that we need to step these up, that it's not enough. in fact, john mccain said we need to step them up twentyfold. what are you hearing along those lines as far as our attack and our -- well, the much-needed and wanted comprehensive strategy overall against isis? >> reporter: well, it really divides, sandra, into two positions. one is that we're going to continue to go down this road of these sort of consistent airstrikes. this is what the president has said again this week. and the second is that they need a more comprehensive strategy to deal with isis. based on my reporting in the ic or the intelligence community, what you hear are repeopledly is that this is not -- repeatedly is this is not a problem that can be solved just by kinetic or military action. what we have here with isis is really a battle of ideas, that it's much larger than that. and i think when we look at the timing on the release of this information about the rescue mission, one has

i was struck by jack keane saying they're attacking south of baghdad. that means they've got them surrounded. it means, a, what is left of the iraqi state? the president says much depends on what we do on there being an inclusive government in baghdad. while he's engineering an inclusive government in baghdad, the rift of the government doesn't seem to run much beyond the suburbs of baghdad. >> we asked you for questions for the panel and got this on facebook from bruce. he writes i'm happy we're helping those on the mountain, but to think that limited military strikes are going to make a difference is silly. you go in to win or don't go in at all. jackie, i mean, that seems to be, and we heard this in the debate between senators cardin and senator graham, what's our mission there, is it too much, is it too little? how do you answer bruce? >> i think it's striking that there's no end date to these strikes. so the president, it was kind of vague, and i think it was on purpose so they could potentially expand this later. i also think benghazi is looming v
