When handling prophecy in this manner, it is always a moving target until one of these days (or years, or decades, or centuries) we will, in fact, have the Second Coming upon us "like a thief in the night" with "no man knowing the day or the hour." Our Lord, you remember, told us, "It is not for you to know the times and the seasons which the Father has fixed by his own authority" because "of that day or that hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father." Then they plug in the names of modern countries and events in the news and try to tie them to places (or powers that are represented as places) in the Scripture, and it's different for every generation of dispensationalists that put their hand to it.
