Armageddon is the Greek word for "Hill of Megiddo." This is the ancient hill of the Valley of Megiddo in the Plain of Jezreel in central Palestine , extending from the Mediterranean to the west of Jordan, separating the mountain ranges of Carmel and Samaria from those of Galilee and across the plain of Esdraelon from Nazareth.
Wrong, wrong, wrong! While it is true Armageddon is the Greek word for the hill of Megiddo. The "Hill of Megiddo" is a very small hill near the base of Mt. Carmel. It is not true that the Plain of Jazreel (AKA Valley of Jazreel) is the Valley of Megiddo. That is totally false. The Valley of Megiddo is on the SW side of the hill. The pictures you show are the Valley of Jazreel, and at least two were taken from Mt. Caramel.

What do you believe about Tecumesh, Magog, and Gomer?
Are they relevant to exchatology?

let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
