The word is quite clear as to the end times for the entire planet. As to individual societies, it gets into some and completely ignores others.
The Bible seems to paint in broad strokes concerning the end of this age. But the strokes are telling in that they discuss the things that are 'important'[relative] from God's perspective and not our own.
Reality is that the World is opposed to truth. Anybody standing for it will be opposed to one degree or another. If you have an entire nation attempting to stand for truth then it to will be opposed...and if the antithetical perspective is desperate enough, it will oppose it violently/militarily.
As to America's impact on end time events. The Word mentions none. This for me is quite profound. Adding that to the reality that Europe itself seems to impose it's will on Israel and the end of the math seems quite clear.

You have been taught that the WORD mentions none of America's impact on the end times, however, this simply is not true.
I agree that all points to the "final" events taking place in Jerusalem, the prophets tell the drama, which Paul says (ICorinthians 10:ll) Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: (examples) and they are written for our admonition, (warning) upon whom the ends of the world (ages) are come.
There are examples within Isaiah, Jeremiah, Daniel, Ezekiel and all the "minor prophets" that are like reading today's newspapers.
