Unreleased Document Reveals Inner Trump Disputes

A secret, unreleased document revealed that there is internal disagreement within the administration of U.S. President Donald Trump regarding how to respond to Britain, France, and Canada's efforts to impose restrictions on trade with Israeli settlements in the West Bank. The draft, prepared on behalf of Secretary of State Marco Rubio, accused the three countries of taking "hostile measures against Israel" and linked them to the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement. The document was not officially issued, and its suspension was due to a lack of support from the White House and the State Department. However, behind the scenes, it became clear that there was a trend within the U.S. mission in Israel advocating for a firmer response, supported by Assistant Ambassador Milstein, who is pro-settlements. Meanwhile, tensions escalated as Israeli settlement expansion continued, notably in projects like "E1," reflecting a debate over Washington's ability to defend Israel against Western pressure, amid a persistent divide between a more assertive approach and a more cautious stance.
