I would have to say that you have a strong point. Your premise that anyone who stands against Israel is crushed shortly afterwards is very compelling. The reason why, is that this very idea is Biblical. Genesis 12:3 reads, “I will bless those who bless you, and the one who curses you I will curse; and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”

Sadly, according to Zechariah 12:1-5, all nations, including America, will eventually turn against Israel and invite the redemptive judgement of God. It reads,
1)"This is the word of the LORD concerning Israel. The LORD , who stretches out the heavens, who lays the foundation of the earth, and who forms the spirit of man within him, declares:
2)"I am going to make Jerusalem a cup that sends all the surrounding peoples reeling. Judah will be besieged as well as Jerusalem.
3) On that day, when all the nations of the earth are gathered against her, I will make Jerusalem an immovable rock for all the nations. All who try to move it will injure themselves.
4) On that day I will strike every horse with panic and its rider with madness," declares the LORD . "I will keep a watchful eye over the house of Judah, but I will blind all the horses of the nations.
5) Then the leaders of Judah will say in their hearts, 'The people of Jerusalem are strong, because the LORD Almighty is their God.'"

You mentioned that you don't believe in Bible Prophecy, yet you have been able to point out many different instances in which prophecy has come true. When you have a free moment, I would recommend you go to www.HalLindsey.com. He currently has an article posted entitled, "Assessing Current Events" that you will find very interesting.

"Genesis 12:3 reads, “I will bless those who bless you, and the one who curses you I will curse; and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”"

Some people have made a whole religion out of this verse. Read the rest of the story. There are 10 Tribes out there that have been scattered to the four corners of the earth that do not have a clue who they are.

By the way Abraham was also told that his seed would number the sands of the sea and the stars of heaven.
