Admiral James Stavridis (Ret), former Supreme Allied Commander at NATO and currently a member of the Carlyle Group, spoke with Brian Kilmeade about being extremely disturbed with North Korea’s latest missile test because of the capability of being launched from a submarine and why he is cautiously optimistic that a deal can be reached with Kim Jong-un over his nuclear arsenal. Admiral Stavridis also discussed his worries that the next phase of Iran’s geopolitical maneuvering will be an attack on Israel or something that goes after Saudi shipping and that attack leading to the death of civilians.
