A few little revolts by a few left here and there DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A NATION BEING THERE!! Get real. Israel as a nation was totally done by 135 AD, completely!!! They did not reform until 1948. They were not a nation. Get into real history books. The one called the Bible should help you a bit.
.....the gathering of ME nations to ARM and form coalitions against one another is more than just that.... I just read an article where many of the ME fighters believe this IS the gathering to fight against Israel no matter currently where the conflicts are creating these coalitions......it's the idea ‘they see’ that they are forming these wartime coalitions as never before in modern ME.
