I freely admit that I cannot keep straight all the futurist theories about what may or may not happen when.
Trying to keep up with and debunk this futurist swill is like playing whack-a-mole. Just when you think you have one this one licked, another pops up over there.
Its been my experience that every viewpoint out there has some truth built in but veers off to try to add to or reinforce their point of view. If they start from a pre conceived point of view they have no chance at truth. There are some on my side of the issue that I disagree on some things. Its when I find an underlying principle that I begin to dismiss viewpoints. Preterism would be one I totally disagree with starting with the dating of Revelation. My name starts with Cynical for a reason.

Fixed it for ya.
A big part of the wild-eyed speculation I see these days revolves around supposed goings on WRT a nephelim resurgence. As if Jesus didn't tell us what "as in the days of Noah" meant.
CB:"I would say that the Dome could well be gone after this year."

I'm starting to feel sorry for them, since every one of their arguments is a losing argument filled with impossible scenarios (200,000,000 Chinese horsemen) to imagining that some entity is going to somehow replace the Dome with a Temple, not just this year, but any year.
First of all, what folks think is the Temple (Wailing/Western) Wall can't possibly be that because a wall requires one brick upon another which our LORD said was not the case. So the Futurists are lost and confused on the location due to lack of proper respect for Scripture and reason.
The Dome sits on the site of Fort Antonio, the original temple site is that gap to the south. The problem here is that one must desecrate a number of graves to build on the actual site. I'm going to provide the next LaHaye with a free plot-line element to build the new Temple (that God says is not build with human hands - another triviality dismissed by the Futurists)
The unaccounted TARP Billions is secretly given to the Palestinians so that they may buy land and outbid the Jewish settlers, thus allowing a somewhat strong market advantage to the Palestinians in procuring and occupying the alleged former Palestinian lands. As part of the deal, they make a covenant not to riot when the Zionists build a Temple to the south of the Dome. The person who brokers this deal is the Futurist's AntiChrist.
See how easy it is to craft semi-believable camp-fire stories when one first rejects Scripture?
