These are my studies on the subject.I cannot answer the question as yet and time will tell of my thoughts on this subject are accurate.Hope this helps.
Daniel 11;1-4
Also I in the first year of Darius the Mede,even I ,stood to confirm and to strengthen him.
And now will I show thee the truth.Behold,there shall stand up yet three kings (Roman,Byzantine,Ottoman empires)in Persia;and the fourth (Great Britton)shall be far richer than they all;and by his streignth through his riches he shall stir up all against the realm of Grecia.(The Third Reich)
And a mighty king shall stand up that shall rule with great dominion,and do according to his will.
And when he shall stand up,his kingdom shall be broken,and shall be devided toward the four winds of heaven;and not to his posterity,nor according to his dominion which he ruled;for his kingdom shall be plucked up,even for others beside those.(Great Britton devided)
Daniel 11;5-6
And the king of the south shall be strong,(Ahmed Hassan al-Bakr)and one of his princes(Saddam Hussein);and he shall be strong above him,and have dominion;his dominion shall be a great dominion.
And in the end of years they shall join themselves together;for the kings daughter of the south shall come to the king of the north to make an agreement;but she shall not retain the power of the arm;neither shall he stand,nor his arm;but she shall be given up,and they that brought her,and he that begat her,and he that streignthend her in these times.
The President of Lebanon, Amine Gemayel </wiki/Amine_Gemayel>, connected with President Reagan on April 18, saying, “The Lebanese people and myself express our deepest condolences to the families of the U.S. victims. The cross of peace is the burden of the courageous." Meanwhile, Lebanon asked the U.S., France, and Italy to double the size of the peacekeeping force. As of March 16, it numbered about 4,800 troops, including some 1,200 U.S. Marines, 1,400 Italian soldiers, 2,100 French paratroopers and 100 British soldiers.
Daniel11;7-8
But out of her roots shall one (Imad Fayez Mughiyah)stand up in his estate,which shall come with an army,and shall enter into the fortress (US embassy and barracks ,Beirut 1983)of the king of the north,and shall deal against them,and shall prevail;
And shall also carry captives into Egypt (TWA flight 847-1985)thier gods,with thier prnces,and with thier precious vessels of silver and gold;and he shall continue more years than the king of the north.
Imad Fayez Mughniyah died feb 12,2008

TWA Flight 847 from Athens is hijacked by terrorists. The pilot is forced to fly to Beirut, where hijackers beat and kill a Navy diver. The plane is flown to Algiers, then back to Beirut again.

Dan 11;9
So the king of the south shall come into his kingdom,and shall return into his own land.
(.Iran-Iraq war ened 1988)
Dan11;10-12
But his sons shall be stirred up,and shall assemble a mutitude of great forces;and one shall certainly come,and overflow,and pass through;then shall he return,and be stirred up,even to his fortress.
(1991 Gulf war)
And the king of the south shall be moved with choler,and shall come forth and fight with him,even with the king of the north;and he shall set forth a great mutitude;but the mutitude shall be given into his hand.
And when he had taken away the mutitude,his heart shall be lifted up;and he shall cast down many ten thousands;but he shall not be strengthened by it.
(During the first war with Iraq,Sadam had the 3rd largest army in the world.Certainly a great mutitude.But they were given into the hand of the US.After the US army (its mutitude)was withdrawn from Iraq ,Sadam cast down many ten thousands.The kurds to the north and shites to the south.Even though the US imposed no fly zones to help the uprising ,Sadam defeated all that rose against him.)
Dan 11;13-17
(2003 Gulf war)
For the king of the north shall return,and set forth a mutitude greater than the former,and shall certainly come after certain years with a great army and with much riches.
And in those times there shall many stand up against the king of the south;also the robbers of thy people shall exalt themselves to establish the vosion;but they shall fall.
So the king of the north shall come,and cast up a mount,and take the most fenced cities;and the arms of the south shall not withstandlneither his chosen people,neither shall there be any strength to withstand
But he that cometh against him shall do according to his own will,and none shall stand before him;and he shall stand in the glorious land,which by his hand shall be consumed.
He shallalso set his face to enter with the strength of his whole kingdom,and upright ones with him;thus shall he do;and he shall give him the daughter of women ,corrupting her;but she shall not stand on his side,neither be for him.The US returned with an army greater than before and took the most fenced cities.Not even Sadam's chosen elect (elite republican guard) could withstand.
Daniel 11;18
After this shall he turn his face unto the isles,and shall take many;but a prince for his own behalf shall cause the reproach offerd by him to cease;without his own reproach he shall cause it to turn upon him.
Bush took prisoners to Cuba and has since been forced to give the detainees their day in court.
Dan11;19
Then he shall turn his face toward the fort of his own land;but he shall stumble and fall and not be found.
Bush set his face to Washington for the bailout of fanacial institutions and is president no more
Dan 11;20
Then shall stand in his estate a raiser of taxes in the glory of the kingdom,but within few days he shall be destroyed,neigther in anger,nor in battle.Im presently awaiting to see the conclusion of this verse.
Like you I had thought the king who would follow the raiser of taxes was jewish but he may not be.I suspect the host sent to the nation of Israel in dan 8;12 and also in dan 11;31(the arms that stand on behalf of the king of the north)may have a connection to a jewish person.I think Obamas chief of staff ,Ralm Emanuel was born in Israel and has served with the Israeli millitary.I will be keeping a close eye on his intereactions with Israel.
The future will tell if my thoughts are correct or not so lets keep an eye out.
