and please join me in thanking general petraeus and lord roberts.

general petraeus, welcome to the program.ings i just laid out, all of that stuff we have been watching this week, the dangers in the middle east, are you concerned now that it could start spilling into a wider war? >> well, i think you have to be concerned, christiane. in fact, the way i would characterize the overall global situation is that we face more challenges in number and more complex and more dangerous chal challenges than arguably than at any time since the end of the cold war if not the end of world war ii. it is a very, very dicey situation out there, as you characterized it. >> so that's pretty, you know, pretty dramatic language in comparison. so from your perspective, from the u.s. perspective, what is the most dangerous or can you not separate them? >> well, i think it is hard to separate them because in a given day one will emerge as more challenging at the moment than the other, but i think we can never lose sight of the most important relationship in the world, and that is the one, of course, between the u.

. >>> general petraeus joins me now. general petraeus, thank you so much for joining me. what is your takeaway from seeing those images of the strikes last night? >> precision, substantial munitions, and i suspect some of those targets, the most important ones, there were several aim points on them. and over 60 different targets, so a very substantial damage and very considerable precision reportedly no civilians were killed. >> president biden said he has already delivered his message to it iran and they know not to do anything further. do you see any evidence here? >> well, i don't see them taking action directly. and he is very happy to see that engaged, the last men in iran and that would be very serious, of course, with a greater affect of flow. but we see no signs of that so far. >> so the strike on the houthis, some have pointed out it is a new conflict for the united states in a way and unlike other places that it has been engaged in for years. and even some on the right are saying that he should have brought this to congress beforehand. this is what he said. >> a

i think we can pick this up with the general david - this up with the general david petraeus. general david petraeus, former director of the central intelligence agency and former commander of us and nato forces in afghanistan. have these strikes on the houthis worked as far as you can see. i think they certainly have degraded the capabilities of the houthis to carry out more of the types of attacks that they have prosecuted, but it doesn't eliminate it. and the houthis said they will respond, they did today, not in the red sea, but in the gulf of aden. and it may be that the us and united kingdom and others will have to carry out further attacks and i think the us is ready to do that. it took a while, you know, so i commanded the us central command the headquarters that oversaw these particular responsible for an area of the middle east. this is a substantial package, when you employ over 150 munitions against well over 60 targets at 16 different sites, this is a large activity, large operation. but it may be they will have to do it again, but it took a while to establish the

is even such a book, it is called olyn, here it is, i took it with me, the author , general david petraeus, that's what they called olim, all the bets are on the line, and it turns out that we have a war now, and we don't place all the bets on the line, and the americans only placed them because someone attacked the pentagon. they were not visited by people entering the country on tanks or apcs, they were not tortured, no destroyed, did not rape the population, simply usamadlanden attacked the world trade center and the pentagon, and they said that it is necessary, it is necessary to put all bets on the line, that is, we must use all the forces available and the means that we have, and if we have these forces and there are no means, then we have to create them, and they created the pvc, but we are lagging behind. thank you very much for the inclusion, i have information resources and analytical resources at my disposal, this is what i try to contribute to the promotion of the idea related to private companies, i hope that we are we will continue to do so and we will find like-minded people

personally. with the american general of the armed forces of the united states of america, david petraeusd when the fighting started in afghanistan and iraq, and the united states of america realized that they were starting to lose, david petraeus came to the president of the united states and he said this phrase: he said: "mr. president, we can't just raise rates, that's part of it." a little bit, tomorrow a little bit, the day after tomorrow a little bit, we have to go all in, in english it's called all in, because if we don't go all in, we're going to lose this war, that was a very brave person because she just came to president and expressed her opinion, i want to tell you about this that there is even such a book, it is called olin, here it is, i took it with me, the author is general david. people did not come to the country in tanks on battleships, they did not torture, destroy, rape the population, the world trade center and the pentagon were simply attacked in samobilanden, and they said that it was necessary to place all bets on the horse. that is, we must use all available forc

david petraeus came to the president of the united states and he said the following phrase: he said, "mr. president, we can't just raise rates, piecemeal." there today a little, tomorrow a little, the day after tomorrow a little, we have to put everything on the line. in english it's called olein because if we don't put everything on the line we're going to lose this war, she was a very brave person because she just came to the president and expressed her opinion, i want to tell you about this that even there is such a book, it is called olin, here it is, i took it with me, the author says that we have a war now, and we we do not place all bets on the line, but the americans placed only because someone attacked the pentagon and the world trade center, people did not enter the country in tanks, armored personnel carriers, they did not torture, destroy, rape the population, it was just that bidlandin attacked the world trade center and the pentagon, and they said that it is necessary to place all bets on the con. that is, we must use all available forces and means that we have, and if

question to you is there not a military way to separate civilians and take care of civilians as petraeus said? he's been through many wars in civilian areas. was there not a better way? >> first of all, we don't want to see any civilians killed. i repeat that. we don't want to see any civilians in the cross fire between hamas and the israely defense forces. but having said that, we're up against a brutal enemy, who deliberately invades itself in residential neighborhoods, in schools, in u.n. facilities, in mosques. and underneath gaza, under the cities of gaza, where they cannot go, there's a subterranean network of tunnels, missile launching sites, armories, hamas has had more than 16 years to embed itself, and that's why this operation will take time. though we're doing our best to avoid civilians getting in the cross fire, there's a deliberate strategy of using civilians as a human shield making our job much more difficult. >> you see what's happening. there's a growing coalition of israeli allies saying that there must be in return for normalization. there must be an absolute palesti

the question put to general petraeus at the beginning of the war which is tell me how this ends.,ast look like in fe years if you're successful in remediation? if we get into a situation where we go back tor defend in the wy hostage up some political dynamic happening. there isl another one and honestly, wevepect about it bute going to ensure there is an international commitment -- we are hoping do you think eran agrees wit of that? >> i don't want to speak on behalf of any country. i'm telling you my position, our position in the region and the parties are agreeing to this. we have questions now from the audience. hamas put out a statement justifying the attack. will you publicly call for hamas to accept a two state solution? >> so i'm looking at the next question. you've repeatedly said it's a neutral mediator that has no leverage over the parties other than words yet it's been widely reported that for years the leadership has lived in cutter. how does that square away with your claim of a neutral mediator do you have no leverage over the organization whose top leaders live in

general david petraeus is a former director of the us central intelligence agency — the cia — and, beforetial military commanders of his generation. are we at war in yemen? i don't know that we're at war with yemen, but clearly, we are in a hostile situation. we're carrying out actions of self—defence of our ships and, of course, of the shipping through that very important artery of the world's maritime traffic. the houthis are no easy adversary. they're hardened fighters. and you can get entangled and mired down pretty quickly. translation: we will not hesitate, god willing, - to do everything we can, and we will confront - the american aggression. any american aggression will never remain without a response. - general sir richard barrons has been one of britain's most senior military commanders. so, what we have seen is the us and the uk and others standing in the background, saying to the houthis — through the medium of the application of air power — do not target international trade. but it hasn't worked. they've done the air strikes and the houthis are still firing missiles at ships.

offensive, cautiously predicts the retired american general and former director of the cia, david petraeus. undoubtedly, by conducting offensive operations, ukraine is cutting russia's logistical routes along the southeastern coast of ukraine. this would be a major achievement. however, i do not fully understand whether this will be possible. ukraine still has to overcome a huge defense line, the so-called sorovikin line, unless ukraine can really establish dominance in the air, and i am not sure that the number of western aircraft will be sufficient for this. according to the german publication welt , the most likely attack by ukraine will be on the left bank of the kherson region, where the russians have weaker defensive lines. in a positive scenario for ukraine, the armed forces of ukraine will inflict even greater losses on the russian army. the british ministry of defense predicts that by 2024, the number of russian casualties will exceed half a million, which further demoralizes an enemy fighting on foreign soil. yes, there are much more people in russia than in ukraine, but when you

i'm going to ask you as somebody who so close to it the question that was put to general petraeus ate beginning of the iraq war, which is, tell me how this ends. in your mind as a mediator, what does the middle east look like in the five years, if you are successful in your mediation? >> well, it depends to what direction this mediation, if we will get to a situation where the war is ended and we go back to the same previous status, which is separate from the west bank, no hope for political situation and the region remains as a hostage of, you know, some political dynamics happening here or there. then we are going to be in much worse situation five years from now, and the situation will not, the attack that happened seven october, there is another one, a war will happen and honestly, we don't see like the perspective of it. we're going to seize this opportunity, we're going to ensure that after this there is an international commitment forr a peaceful resolution for a two-state solution. there is a clear path for the palestinians, further stated, then it will be much better picture

secretary of state of the united states, he said that we have all the information, the pentagon petraeusay he said, that’s it, we don’t have them, they hushed it up, hushed it up, they knew everything then, and they know it now, here we are all with you we are discussing in principle that obvious fact, we simply do not articulate it. then today, from ukrainian territory under the control of the united states, if not by order, then under the control, a terrorist act was probably committed, for which no one will ever answer in relation to their own, in relation to their own, just as they did on the maidan, they killed heavenly, which once again confirms that i’m asking him, and he answers this question, let’s listen to what he said about whether this country is sovereign, it’s very funny to say. in 2014 after the maidan, ukraine became completely under the control of the united states, why did the russian president give the order to use military force in ukraine, imagine mexico, which is next to you, imagine that the mexican ministry of defense would become completely under the control of

we also have on the show this week, general david petraeus talking about world affairs. so that's sunday on. the issue is then of course, we'll see you monday. back here for the debate. yeah. alex, back to you a busy few days before i let you go. >> alex, what do you make of the republican in this senate race? steve garvey making a real strong push in the polls as of late. >> uh, it shows that there is a hunger among republicans. the question is, can they all coalesce behind one person? the challenge for steve garvey is to get a lot of the republicans in the state who are very pro-trump, to get behind you in the primary without alienating the rest of the state, who is very not pro-trump, right, to be able to potentially win in november. that may be a reason why steve garvey hasn't said that much, hasn't really laid out a lot of policy positions. could that change when he's pressured with the other candidates on stage on monday? that's going to be one of the main things we're looking for. yeah we'll be looking forward to that debate coming up on monday. >> and again, alex

george marshall prided himself on not dave petraeus that he doesn't vote. you didn't while he was on active duty for many many don't vote for president. vote for mayor and governor, that sort of thing. they don't want to think their guy or gal won or lost the next commander in chief. so there is that passing out. but as far as taking stands, you know, if this is part of domestic, i think retired officers should speak out endorsing one party or another. if asked to serve. that's and republican or democrat, male or female. if the president states asked you to serve, i brought up by the greatest generation. if you're prepared to serve. there's only one answer, and that is you'll go in and do your best to support and defend the constitution. you should show that would be one thing. but endorsing in an election is we would see that as domestic involvement of a pernicious kind. would we want the military to stay out of it and. that, again, is the standard established by george washington. the military's role at he actually comes out he. his army i think by that p

explanation why zelensky went to these countries, because the former director of the cia, david petraeus it would even come to this, we all changed our surnames, adding this letter s, uh-huh, now demands that it be changed to latvian, this is etching. yourself, that is, a person ceases to be himself, that is, it really is such an internal gender change, you stop identifying yourself simply as who you were. if you live in countries the baltic states or in other countries of the post-soviet space, you have something to tell, subscribe to the telegram channel stream popular front, the qr code is on your screen, and as you can see, we openly show your appeal on our air, so do not forget to subscribe to participate in the discussion. in kiev they decided that it was necessary to urgently send everyone else who remained to the front, ukrainian sources write that at the moment a plan has been drawn up to mobilize 50 thousand people in the first 3 months. the general staff demands increased mobilization from february in order to keep up prepare the first reserves by april. at the moment, a plan

, you know, you have this political gap opening up, but, you know, i remember interviewing david petraeusr 7th. he made the point that israel has put itself in a risky position here. it's outlined a maximalist goal for this campaign. you know, defining victory, how can israel define victory right now? not only, i think it was an excellent report, pointing out that they haven't gone after -- been able to find the real leadership of hamas. what is an end point that anyone can imagine that seems reasonable? i remember reporting after speaking to a senior biden official who had been on these initial trips to the region, who said, you know, the israelis are talking about months or even years of conflict. that is so different than the expectations here, i think, which are warped expectations in washington and in the american political class, this idea that you're going to turn the war on and off. they're not going to be doing that until they have achieved a totally different state of security with hamas. right now, that doesn't seem anywhere close to being achieved. >> mike is going to stay wit

republican candidate for the us senate, eric earley, and catch up with retired four star general david petraeus. also next week, i'm honored to be co-moderating a debate in the race for l.a. county district
