they resist if the russians take control of the city? just my personal opinion, one, i don t think they brought enough to take, and definitely didn t bring enough to hold. to fight a counterinsurgency, the numbers you need are astronomical. this isn t iraq. like you said, i had two combat tours, experienced a lot of insurgency. but that was maybe 1% of the population. this is going to be a giant percent of the population that will resist. if russia, if they take kyiv and install a government, they re going to face years i don t think they can sustain being there with the insurgency they ll face. yeah. absolutely. i want to thank you, major john spencer. i am going to jump away from you for just a moment. i want to go back to ali velshi. that train has come in, ali. i m going to try to grab you before we get to a break. i m with nbc news.
the carom of urban warfare studies. he is no stranger to war, serving more than 25 years in the army including two combat tours in iraq. he s also the author of the book connected soldiers. major, thank for being with us today. i want to get your take on what s been going on. you and i have been talking before the war started and you were talking about ways ukrainians can protect themselves, particularly in urban warfare. now overnight we have seen what has happened in the suburbs of kyiv. the russians have left, and what they have left behind is remarkable evidence of war crimes and atrocities. how does this change your thinking if at all? it has to change everybody s thinking, ali. this isn t i studied urban warfare, been in it. this isn t bombing of civilians that can be argued away as military targets. it takes an intimate special kind of evil to wrap the hands of a civilian and shoot them in
we have to get our act together or we will have serious problems. this is not political anymore. this should be personnel for everybody. get out and vote. put this genie back into the bottle. pete: i wish we could. so many guys are facing this charge. multiple combat tours and ending my career of 19 years because i am forced to get a vaccination. congress deteriorate man, last word? it s not just what it does to our military. it s what it s doing to the first amendment your right to practice your faith. this is fundamentally wrong what they are doing. pete: very smart people. thank you all for being with us tonight on hannity. straight ahead with disasters
