I
still think the US and Canada are the land of unwalled villages, and that the words "at the same time" indicate a parenthesis in Ezekiel 38:10-13, so that Gog invades someplace else at the same time it's heading into Israel, and that's why the young lions, etc. ask Gog about taking a spoil. North America used to be sparsely populated, the populations of the US and Canada have come from many nations, and simply by virtue of having the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans east and west of us, we dwell in great safety from foreign nation attack, and in villages, towns, and cities, which don't have bars or gates. No other country dwells so securely that they don't have physical barricades/barriers around their villages, towns, and cities. And we have certainly gotten cattle and goods. We're probably the wealthiest countries ever on the face of the earth.
Across the Arctic and/or Bearing Strait makes the US and Canada close neighbors of Gog.
And I'm
still wondering where Gog/USSR professional troops are
Further, the midst of the land is stated, so I wonder if the midwest is what would be targeted? Through Hudson Bay and south, staying west of Lake Superior, and straight through North Dakota/Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Texas. The huge amount of agricultural, technological, medical, and energy assets/resources, and the terrain is pretty easy to traverse, except in winter in the north and when floods hit. Even so, I29, I94, I35, etc. are well-built, have excellent support/services/infrastructure, and an invading force could cut the US in half in less than a day.
I'm far less familiar with Canadian N-S routes, so maybe the Windsor-Detroit crossing, but then there's so much traffic in the US coming south and west from there. I think better to stay west of the Great Lakes if agriculture (food) and maybe medicine is what Gog/USSR would be after.
Invasion day would be a good day for protestors to hit the Interstates, and for a massive, slow, exceptionally congested, rush hour
10 Thus saith the Lord God; It shall also come to pass, that at the same time shall things come into thy mind, and thou shalt think an evil thought:
11 And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates,
12 To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.
13 Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with all the young lions thereof, shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? hast thou gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil?
