::''"Graham is very happy with the plans President Trump will outline tomorrow; very happy. The action appears to center around the confiscation of Russian assets, Russian central bank reserves held in European bonds. The money belongs to the people of Russia in the form of bonds previously purchased by Russia using a system that many nations follow, including all those nations who buy U.S. treasuries. If the USA or Europe end up confiscating those funds, the only thing this action would prove is that the western financial system cannot be trusted."''

:Unfortunately, for the remainder of Trump's term, it looks like the prospects for negotiated peace settlements in both Ukraine and Iran appear off the table. The duplicity of both [[Operation Spiderweb]] and [[Operation Midnight Hammer]] - in the midst of peace talks, make it seem so.
:Now, one can argue Trump wasn't aware of [[Operation Spiderweb]]. That makes no difference. If Trump is not in control of war planners in his own government, he can't make a peace deal, either. [[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|''Zelensky Must Go!'']]</sup>
