“The real problem I have with the dispensational POV/end-times/rapture scenario is that if (God forbid) some nuclear strike were carried out on Israel, there would be those from the end-times camp who would say this is a fulfillment of prophecy.”

And how would those in the Post mil and Amil camps interpret such a catastrophe?

Just for the sake of argument, suppose this did happen, let's say next year. How would you interpret the event?

“Just for the sake of argument”

The question was not intended as argument. I was intrigued by your statement about dispensationalists always looking prophetically at current events and wanted to see how someone who thinks that prophecy has been fulfilled would look at current events. I don’t read anything specifically prophetic into the catastrophe except the general “wars and rumors of war” statement. If it occurs it would be part of God’s permissive will in His sovereign plan for the world, just like everything that happens.
