It would work better if you had some reason to think that both of those guys would fold, but that seems doubtful. If there hadn't been a caller before you I think there'd be more merit to it. I'd lead the flop for about 2/3 pot, I think. Depending on the action from there, I may push if it got popped. If you had 15 clean outs a push might not be bad when the action gets back to you anyway, but I think the K or the Q will frequently not be helping you out, so I wouldn't recommend it.

I think the only person calling the all in is someone who has you beat.

I dont like the way you played this too much

Don't like it. Push on the flop maybe... definately not on that bad turn. People love their JTs.

you wouldn't play it that way if you had a ten, so don't play it that way when you don't
