It seems that since the Tribulation deals with Israel, only those countries directly involved with Israel at that time are mentioned.

How often does the United States fail to meddle elsewhere?

Good point.

However, my suspicion is that the US has become so impotent and meaningless on the world stage, that it’s no longer a factor with Israel, although I do give some credence to the idea that Israel being taken away on eagle’s wings COULD be an allusion to the US doing an airlift to rescue Jewish people.
