Try to keep the ukrainians off balance. thats -- thats, in essence, whats happening here. um, but they are, you know, clearly doing things that, you know, indicate that their first plan has really failed. its -- its really, you know, kind after sequencing issue for them i think more than anything else. theyve -- they thought that they could conquer ukraine very quickly. that did not happen. so this is, in essence, plan b, a corollary to plan a, which was to take the whole thing. >> but -- and la...

Plan a was sweep across the country, well be greeted with bolts of vodka. they were greeted with bottles of gasoline and rags topped in they will not sweep across the country. plan a is gone. plan b is terrorize the population. pound cities into dust and hope the ukrainians will crack under the strain. i dont see a lot of cracking in the ukrainian mentality now. their leader zelenskyy is churchillian in his stamina, his sense of inspiration for the people. can they turn this all around and drive...

Find it, i think, useful from their perspective to try to keep the ukrainians off balance. thats, in essence, whats happening here. but they are, you know, clearly doing things that, you know, indicate that their first plan has really failed. its really kind of a sequencing issue for them, i think, more than anything else. they thought that they could conquer ukraine very quickly. that did not happen. so this is, in essence, plan b, a corollary to plan a, which was to take the whole thing. >> we...

In particular, because it seems the russians are using open communications and cell phones and those growlers can really do a lot of jobs on them. >> do you see -- you see it as a plan b if russia escalates, not as a plan a, lets get up in the skies and help ukraine now? >> thats correct. in fact, i think john kirby said that from the pentagon as well. i think this is just one of the capabilities they are looking for a deterrence and a defensive operation inside nato territory. not to help the f...

Bridge, above all consolidate your forces because, to conclude here, fareed, you know, plan a would not have gotten a passing grade at any war college in the west. it was a dumb plan. you know, admirals love to criticize generals, right? but this was badly constructed, hampered by logistics and its a failure. putin, if youre going to win this thing to some degree, get your forces consolidated in the southeast. >> and should we worry, should the ukrainians worry about potential amphibious landing...

How are they going to deal with this set back given that they do have the resources to come back again? >> well, lets remember plan a was to sweep across ukraine, a blitzkrieg, decapitate zelenskyys government, probably decapitate him personally from what weve seen of the russians lately and install a puppet regime. plan a failed miserably so they are on plan b now. if i were giving them advice, id say, you know, thats a pretty smart plan b, which is to consolidate your forces, get them in one a...
