Revelation is purely about the destruction of Jerusalem in AD 70. It is complete.

Complete? Oops. How embarrassing, those Jooooz never go away. Now they have the gall to have the non-city of Jerusalem (destroyed and unoccupied, like Babylon) declared as their capital! Clearly, the Jooooz did not get the Praeterists' memo. No wonder supercessionists hate Israel. It messes up their "nice," "neat," packaged "theology."

What are you talking about, TZfat? This is a historical fact that Jerusalem was destroyed in AD 69-70

The FACT that the Jews of today have rebuilt Jerusalem (and YES, Jerusalem IS the capital of Israel, full stop) has nothing to do with the FACT that what Revelation said, namely the destruction of Jerusalem in AD 69-70 happened.

the book of Revelation was about that time, not any future time

What are you talking about? Jerusalem WAS destroyed during the Jewish rebellion and then the Jews were dispersed post the Bar Kochkba revolt.

The Jews have come back since the 1800s - Aliya started then, under the Turks

And Jerusalem has been the capital of Israel since 1948. I don't care if no one else "recognized" it - Israel is a de jure and de facto separate country and it has the full right to recognize its own capital.

The US congress in the 1990s recognized it and now President Trump has signed that recognition of the US in 2018 (one year after the Russkies did, by the by)

Yep.
How about those chains the devil is wearing. Pretty cool that they can stretch from LA to DC, then over to Beijing when needed.
