WHAT ABOUT RUSSIA AND IRAN?
Israel's future wealth plus her strategic land position will draw the powers from the North: Russia, her allies from Europe, Iran, and two North African regions to fight against Israel.
Russia and her allies, incuding Iran, will be sorely defeated on the hills of Israel by fire, disease, and earthquakes. Confusion will cause them to fight against each other.
YHWH will be noticed (set apart) by the nations of the world as He was in the days of the Passover from Egypt.
This war will NOT happen until AFTER Israel controls the Middle East. See "Israel's Future Wealth" in the middle column. >>>

ISRAEL'S FUTURE WEALTH WHAT'S NEXT: A WAR BETWEEN ISRAEL AND ALL OF THE MIDDLE EAST ...
Israel will be positioned into a force of prosperity and power: a "sign" to the nations! A war between Israel and probably ALL of the Middle East will happen, not just bordering Arab states like Lebanon, Syria, and Jordan.
Israel will control these nations and their wealth. The extreme wealth that Israel will control will be one of the things God uses to draw the northern confederacy described in Ezekiel Chapter 38. This battle is NOT the same as Armageddon. The battle described Isaiah Chapter Eleven could happen right NOW!
A war between Israel and probably ALL of the Middle East will happen, not just bordering Arab states like Lebanon, Syria, and Jordan. Israel will "fly down upon the shoulder of the Philistines (the Palestinians) to the west". In context Israel will strike against Egypt and Iraq (Assyria) and "plunder the people of the East". Israel will CONTROL these nations, and evidently, their WEALTH as a result of the plundering.
Etymologically, the "people of the East" include the Arab nations of Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Kuwait, Bahrain, UAE, and others.
HOW WE KNOW THIS
In Isaiah Chapter 11, verses 12-16 we read a description of a war that will happen BEFORE Messiah comes to earth again (the second time). The first 11 verses tell us about Messiah's return and his rule of peace on earth.
Verses 12-16 cannot happen during this time because Messiah's reign is characterized by peace. Another distinctive feature of the prophecy in verses 12-16 is that the war therein described has not happened historically.
It is very evident here (in this passage) that Israel will CONTROL the East Bank of Jordan (Ammon, Moab, and Edom). This happened in Joshua's time and has NOT happened SINCE the days of Isaiah. This is a future prophecy that WILL happen!
