Unfortunately Satan has done a really good job of deceiving everyone. After all he is the god of this world. The land over there in the mid east that we call Isreal is not really Isreal. It is occupied by the Jews, who are the some of the children of Isreal, but nationaly they have always been called Judea. The only time the Jews were called Israel was under King David. Otherwise Judah and Isreal were separate nations. At one point Judah and Isreal were at war against eachother. The name Isreal was handed to Joseph's two sons. Gen 49 The nation Isreal is somewhere other than in the mid east. The prophicies against Isreal is much bigger than we realize. Notice in Matt 24:16 When Christ is speaking about the end times he addresses the land Judea, because what we call Isreal, is actually Judea. Its a eye opening bible study.
