I too have difficulty to see a strong alliance between the UK and the USA. 

If anything I'm seeing a strong alliance between the US and Israel

 

Both UK and Israel are allies of USA.  If UK was attacked by a terrorist group the way Israel was on October 7, the USA would be the first to help.

In the security policy document (NSS few days ago) Current US administration identifies Drug Cartels as enemies - not Russia. 

The U.S., which has been an interventionist power globally since the end of the Second World War, is shifting its focus to the Western hemisphere, according to the document — 

UK's enemy is Russia.. those two approaches do not align. 

Allies act together and have same enemy. Something does not add up. 

 

As far as being an 'enemy',  what can the USA do to Russia?  Can't use nukes, because they will respond with nukes.  The USA tries to bankrupt Russia, but it's not as easy as it sounds.

 

Russia has made threats against USA's ally Britain, and now we see the USA make threats against Russia's ally Venezuela.  It's like the KotS and the KotN can't go against each other directly. They try to hurt each other by proxy, or in some non-lethal fashion.

What identifies the kings of north and south:

*** w20 May p. 3 par. 4 “The King of the North” in the Time of the End ***
4 The titles “king of the north” and “king of the south” were initially given to political powers located north and south of the literal land of Israel. Why do we say that? Notice what the angel who delivered the message to Daniel said: “I have come to make you understand what will befall your people in the final part of the days.” (Dan. 10:14) Until Pentecost 33 C.E., the literal nation of Israel was God’s people. From then on, however, Jehovah made it obvious that he viewed Jesus’ faithful disciples as his people. Therefore, much of the prophecy recorded in Daniel chapter 11 involves, not the literal nation of Israel, but Christ’s followers. (Acts 2:1-4; Rom. 9:6-8; Gal. 6:15, 16) And the identity of the king of the north and the king of the south changed over time. Even so, several factors remained constant. First, the kings interacted with God’s people in a significant way. Second, they showed by their treatment of God’s people that they hated the true God, Jehovah. And third, the two kings engaged in a power struggle with each other.

There s only one time of truce mentioned in the prophecy: When both kings cooperate to create the disgusting thing (UN in 1945)

 

At the very end of Daniel chapter 11 we don’t see mentioned engagement of eachothers in conflicts. merely the acts of the KOTN alone.

This what we see now happening

Even though there are pushings (verse 40 which is being fullfilled ever since 1991) there are no more mentions of the KOTS 

Isn’t this what we are seeing?

Instead of focusing on what we don’t understand let us focus on what we are seeing now: Daniel prophecy is in full fulfillment.

Its possible that there won’t be any more conflict between those two kings before Armageddon where all of them will be destroyed
