Lt. General (Ret.) Keith Kellogg joined Kudlow on Fox Business to discuss the Middle East.

Lt. General (Ret.) Keith Kellogg, former National Security Adviser for the Trump Administration, recently joined Fox Business's Kudlow to discuss the current administration's defense policies in the Middle East.

Kellogg expressed outrage over reports indicating minimal or non-existent defenses at a U.S. military site, which he believes should have anticipated being a target. He cited unreliable radar systems and ineffective anti-drone measures as significant issues. Kellogg emphasized the need for thorough after-action reviews to assess and improve defense strategies, especially in light of the increasing threat from drone warfare.

Kellogg criticized the Biden Administration for its lack of accountability and strategic foresight, comparing its tepid response to drone attacks with the decisive actions taken during the Trump Administration, such as the elimination of Iranian General Qasem Soleimani. He argued that the current administration prioritizes diversity and inclusion over critical security measures, leaving American soldiers vulnerable.

Highlighting recent U.S. strikes against Iranian-backed forces, Kellogg questioned why the administration has not taken stronger actions directly against Iran, particularly targeting strategic assets like the Iranian spy ship in the Red Sea. He called for a more robust and strategic approach to countering threats in the region.
