U.S.-backed forces in Syria claimed full control of the Islamic State’s onetime capital of Raqqa on Tuesday

It's strange that the entry of Russia's military into the fray, did not result in the same results. It took a change in the Presidency and Congress to bring this about.

Of course the Russians are too busy establishing themselves, Hezbollah and Iran's military in the region, and setting up for the end times scenario. Maybe the reason the US is not mentioned in Bible prophecy is because we have been taken out by the socialist and communist agents, or a natural disaster?

Of course their are others who believe that the US and its allies are Ephraim in prophecy, and that Judah actually fills its bow with Ephraim to defeat its invaders.

Time will tell.

The Bible refers to people, not nations or geographic location. The US wouldn’t be mentioned, however, the people of Israel are.

The question then becomes if you are a child of Israel?

Israel was the name given to Jacob by God after he struggled with Him. Israel means “struggles with God”.

To follow Christ or the Holy God is a lifetime of struggle.

In my opinion Israel denotes people after God’s heart not a location.
