Will be a strike at some point. of course, what we heard in lebanon was the russian ambassador in an interview with the television station of hezbollah warned that russian forces will shoot down any missiles fired at syria, and then he went on to say and also the source of those missiles. so certainly it appears that the russians as well are bracing for a possible u.s.-led air strike or missile strikes on syria. what s interesting is that last year when the united states launched cruise missiles on syria after an alleged a chemical strike on the town south of aleppo, the americans informed the russians in advance of the strike. in this case, we don t know if ....
That getting a strong response from russia. they said smart missiles must go to terrorists, not a legitimate government that is fighting terrorism for several years. the u.s. and its allies still waiting for confirmation that the attack over the weekend was perpetrated by banned chemical weapons. yesterday sarah huckabee sanders says the u.s. is confident in the claims they have made so far. listen here. i can t get into specific classified information, but i can tell you we feel confident in the comments we made up until this point. a year and three days ago, the president ordered a strike against syria in the last chemical attack. they fired 59 cruise missiles from a base. russia has been said to keep assad from using chemical weapons. the president said russia has to change course. our relationship with russia is worse than its ever been and ....
Coming. nice and new and smart. you shouldn t be partners with a gas-killing animal that kills his people and enjoys it. sitting with me now is four star general jack keane, from the study of war and a fox news senior strategic analyst. very strong words coming from the president this morning. no surprise, of course. as we await the president s response to this suspected syrian chemical attack, what is the next move and never mind a syrian strike. when are we going to take out assad? i don t think we ll take him out. the facts are is that russia s intervention in september 2015 and the iranian intervention, which was all in tens of thousands of proxies, they have successfully propped up the assad regime or russia could change out the leader but the regime will stay in place. that is a fact. to think there s some kind of political solution in geneva ....
That includes the cold war. there s no reason for this. russia needs to help us with their economy, something that would be easy to do and we need all nations to work together. stop the arms race. a lot of saber rattling going on. ron johnson hoping the tough negotiation made avoid the need for military action. listen to what he said. the president takes the negotiating position into a number of things. i m hoping this is a stronger negotiating position to get vladimir putin to think twice before he continues to do this. his second tweet is right. if russia were to behave better in the world, it would be better for the russian economy and the russian people. it s not clear how a military strike could be avoided. the president s posture at the moment leading to a strike. we don t know when it could happen but he cancelled his plans to travel to peru and columbia over the weekend. secretary of defense james mattis cancelling travel plans. before the top of the hour, we ....
