Neither Ukraine or Israel leaders want peace.

 INTERNAL CONFLICTS AND SABOTAGE OF PEACE PLANS

TRUMP NEEDS TO BE MORE ASSERTIVE 



It is clear that the EU led by the Uk still do not want an end to the Ukraine war, or at least not without their financial interests being protected. That and division in the U.S. administration makes any solution impossible.

While we see Steve Witkoff conducting extensive talks both with Russia and Iran we see both internal and external attempt to sabotage these negotiations. Keith Kellogg the supposed Ukraine envoy seems to be more an envoy of the Uk than the U.S. His proposal to allow France and the Uk to occupy everything west of the Dnieper river in Ukraine, a de facto NATO occupation of western Ukraine, a proposal that will never be acceptable to Russia or even Ukraine. Trump needs to either reign this guy in or eliminate his position as he is not an asset to the situation.

Trump needs to end military aid to Ukraine, including U.S. personnel on the ground, it is all counter productive and will just continue the death and destruction.

As for Israel, it is clear that Netanyahu does not want any negotiations with Iran, but only the complete submission of Iran. While Witcoff is negotiating, Netanyahu's position is the complete destruction of all nuclear facilities and even the possession of Uranium, the destruction of all long range missiles and the de facto disarmament of Iran. Then to top it off, he hoped that the U.S. would implement the "Libyan plan", which by the way is the same tactic that John Bolton used to collapse any talks with North Korea. 

The "Libyan plan" was  the strategy that was used to destroy Libya. Promise Libya and Gadhafi that if they give up any nuclear options then all will be well. Gadhafi complied and even allowed western oil companies access to the oil, then a civil war was commenced, paid for with western money, air support from NATO was provided and the eventual killing of Gaddafi and the complete destruction of Libya. A destruction that continues today with tribal conflict and chaos.

Trump should end the supply of offense weapons to Israel. Israel continues to expand into Syria and is now concerned about push back by Tunkey, who is not going to allow Israel to control Syria.  At the same time, you hear calls in Israel to preemptively strike Egypt because it has extended troops into the Sinai, Egyptian territory. 

Internal division in Israel is growing with hundreds of IDF soldiers signing a petition in protest and Hamas has not been weakened even after the death of 70,000 civilians. It will not take much to ignite this situation with an all out war that the United States will be expected to rescue and possibly not win.

This situation brought about by small counties, who hope to use the power of their allies to save them when they could not engage in unlimited war without their support. All negotiation, all hope of settlement is discarded with the hope of someone else destroying their enemies. The principle of an eye for eye and a tooth for a tooth cannot be conducted with nuclear powers, The global economic and political stability is at risk.
