if for a briefing is retired army general jack keen. welcome sir to the program, good to see you. >> good to see you, sean. >> if you were called in and president obama says i want to go forward and i want to strike what targets would you sougt? >> i would take a strategic view of this and not punish him for the chemical weapons. that is actually tipping the happen to the brits. they insisted on that statement. there is much we can do to shift the momentum which is in assad's favor. one provide them training and they are in the lead and the opposition forces now. secondly, clearly what needs to be done is have assad move significant military capability as a result of what he has done. don't spread these cruise missiles all over the place to the point where we don't concentrate and focus on reducing capability. one of the most vulnerable capabilities is air power. less than 100 airplanes take down the fuel storage, take out the command and control on those six primary fields and his air power is reduced dramatically and that reduces the

jack keene is currently chairman of the ins tult for the study of war. thanks for being here. >> good to be here, bret. >> first of all, we haven't seen the intelligence laid out from the administration as of yet. is there any doubt knowing what you know about syria, knowing what you know about assad that the chemical weapons were used by him and not by the rebels to somehow spur some action by the u.s. >> no doubt in my mind. rebels moved into east damascus three weeks ago, assad pounded them with military, mortars, he couldn't dislodge them. they received a weapons shipment a number of days prior to use of chemical weapons. he went after them with next weapon to be success. knowing how important damascus is to him and the center of the campai campaign. his calculation is that we would one, not respond, because we have not to date, or number two, if we did, it would be minimal and it would not hurt his military capability. >> you think there's a risk in responding just for punishment strike as opposed to some strategic tactical maneuver that takes out a

. >> reporter: retired general jack keen warns the embassies close too long, terrorists win. >> they're on the rise and when they sense weakness, they attack. and they believe we're pulling back. >> reporter: defense officials say in the wake of the benghazi attack, the u.s. has beefed up embassy security and significantly altered its force posture, repositions marines to respond to threats in the middle east and north africa. some want more marines stationed at embassies, and based on benghazi want better trained private security as well. >> we saw what happened when the local militia there absolutely evaporated. no longer lowest bid, it should be best value. >> reporter: controversy continuing over the nsa data mining, former u.n. ambassador says there doesn't seem to be a problem as long as the antennas are going out, not in. >> this is what intelligence is supposed to do, we spy on foreigners. i think the greatest criticism one scan make of foreign intelligence gathering is that there's not enough of it. >> reporter: next week marks the end of the holy month of ramadan when there's

. >> jack keen is a retired four-star general, former vice chair of staff for the army and a fox news military analyst who joins us now. general keen, always good to see you. >> good morning, eric. >> john mccain has jumped on the a bendwagon abou a bandwagg or stopping military aid. if that happens, what will we do. >> i have utmost respect for the senator and agree with him mostly on everything. if congress wants to change the conditions for administering the aid, that's certainly their right to do so. i think it would be a good thing. i believe it's a mistake for the administration to cut off the aid now while we're triangl tryo maintain this relationship. not so much the aid is the relationship that's the issue. it would further deteriorate. the second thing is we have to stay focused on this muslim brotherhood issue. i don't think we should be taking any action which encourages them, which gives them sort of a victory with a repudiation of the military command. certainly the human dimension here has got to be taken into account. there are people being killed and the military is c

i was fascinated to hear today an our air, chris, general jack keene talking about al qaeda and he saysks they're emboldened. we have been hearing that al qaeda is on its heels and this general is saying i think al qaeda is emboldened, possibly by the benghazi strike. your thoughts? >> well, i don't know if it's benghazi or not but clearly the narrative you are getting out of the white house, especially last year during the campaign, that al qaeda is on the run, al qaeda is decimated, doesn't seem to be true. we seem to be taking this threat very seriously, to close down all of our embassies across the muslim world, now you talk about a travel alert for the month of august. sounds like unfortunately al qaeda is alive and unfortunately well. >> trace: i was wondering about the scope of this warning. we have seen a lot of these things and travel warnings come down and in this region we get a lot about mexico. but the scope is vast. 21 embassies, worldwide travel alert. are you curious about what why this was so vast and maybe the intelligence wasn't as specific and credible as we would li

jack ross. he's kind of a fairly major storyline. i was very keen that he should be a positive character. quitek -- i feel this strongly, so you must stop me if it's boring -- but so many black characters in television drama are victims and things are not going well for them and even when they're positive, even when they're sympathetic, everything's terrible. i feel for black young men and women it's very important that you see people on the screen who are not victims. it's not all going badly. because you just want to get in there, and this guy is not a victim. he's a very successful entertainer, he's a very positive guy, he's very attractive, and there is no negative side to him, and that was quite important to me, actually. he's a very nice chap. >> i know. >> i'm very pleased with the way it's come out. tavis: what can you tell us about -- i know you won't tell us much.
