I suspect that they may be forced to drop it sooner than later. From about 30,000 feet.
And I think Ezekial 38 does not translate to America in my opinion, as you must take it in context of Ezekial 34,35 36 37 which is the story of Israel and the return of Israel. If I could politicaly guess, after Israel nukes its neighbors and survives,populating the conqured land with the return of the ten tribes, Russia declares jihad, invades for the oil under the dead sea and is destroyed in the west bank.
In my opinion the only two references to America is Isaiah 14:33, a rebuke to the United States for the failed Roadmap on the destruction of Gaza, and Isaiah 18, Americas punishment for help to the Arabs in occupying Israel in Isaiah 14:28+ and Zephaniah 2 (the road map). Our retribution for cutting Israel asunder, is the cutting asunder and occupation of the United States by Russia and China.
In case your interested...
I agree with your assessment about America/scripture and what you call retribution. I do not feel we will be invaded, just simply nuked and taken out of the world stage. Corrected and taken down a peg is my feeling and that comes from spirit. I see the character of God. The majority of our population believes in God even if the ACLU and other groups backed by left-wing politicians are trying to take Him out of our culture entirely. Based on this character and scriptural history, I see God saving His own such as instructions of what His people should do during the Babylonian empire to survive or Christ warning His disciples about fleeing Jerusalem when they saw the Roman armies surround it and the withdraw.
