The Periphery Alliance

The alliance of the periphery was a foreign-policy strategy developed by Israeli prime minister David Ben-Gurion (was the primary national founder and first prime minister of the State of Israel.)
The term "periphery" was used due to the fact that non-Arabs and non-Muslims largely geographically encircled the Arab Muslim population in the Middle East. The original alliance included Israel, Turkey, the Imperial State of Iran, and the Ethiopian Empire.
The Berbers also joined the alliance later.
The Berbers are indigenous to the Maghreb region of North Africa, where they live in communities across parts of Morocco, Algeria, Libya.
(source Wikipedia)

Ezekiel 38:5 Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya are with them, all of them with shield and helmet;
6 Gomer and all its troops; the house of Togarmah from the far north and all its troops—many people are with you.

1 Chronicles 1:6 says, the descendants of Gomer were: Ashkenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah.

Jasher 10:8 And the children of Gomer, according to their cities, were the Francum, who dwell in the land of Franza, by the river Franza, by the river Senah.
The Francum of Jasher were called later the Franks. The Franks lived in the areas of today Germany and France.

When it comes to the ratification of the state of Israel, many were for it: The British; the Rothschilds; the UN (that means many nations voted in favor); Turkey (was 1st to recognize the state of Israel).
Now read the Scriptures and history and still refuse to accept the truth.
And this truth is that Ezekiel 38 has been unfolding since 1948. The 'evil plan' of Gog had been in motion long before.
Why did they call themselves Ashkenazi Jews, is beyond my comprehension.
Why do pastors and preachers confuse 'Gog and Magog' of Revelation 20, with 'Gog of the land of Magog' of Ezekiel 38 ?
That too is beyond my comprehension.

Revelation 20 is a war that will happen at the end of the Millennial Kingdom reign of Christ on earth.
(that's probably why so many believe we are living 'Satan's little season', instead of the end of Satan's reign and his obvious wrath, knowing he has a very short time left before the return of Christ.)
History matches the Scriptures, like it or not.

When My people Israel dwell safely, will you not know it?

Lucifer reference in the Bible

Source Bible Hub:

The name "Lucifer" appears only once in the Bible, its association with Satan and the broader theological implications have made it a significant topic in Christian doctrine and cultural discourse.

The name "Lucifer" is derived from the Latin word "lucifer," meaning "light-bringer" or "morning star." This term is traditionally associated with a passage in the Book of Isaiah, specifically Isaiah 14:12, which in the Berean Standard Bible reads: "How you have fallen from heaven, O day star, son of the dawn! You have been cut down to the ground, O destroyer of nations." The Hebrew term "helel ben shachar" is translated as "day star" or "morning star," and the Latin Vulgate rendered it as "Lucifer."

Isaiah 14 is a prophetic taunt against the king of Babylon, using vivid imagery to describe his downfall. The passage has been interpreted by many Christian theologians as a dual reference, addressing both the historical king and a more profound spiritual reality concerning the fall of a celestial being.

Isaiah 14

Fall of the King of Babylon
3 It shall come to pass in the day the Lord gives you rest from your sorrow, and from your fear and the hard bondage in which you were made to serve,
4 that you will take up this proverb against the king of Babylon, and say: “How the oppressor has ceased, The golden city ceased!
5 The Lord has broken the staff of the wicked, The scepter of the rulers;
6 He who struck the people in wrath with a continual stroke, He who ruled the nations in anger, Is persecuted and no one hinders.
7 The whole earth is at rest and quiet; They break forth into singing.
8 Indeed the cypress trees rejoice over you, And the cedars of Lebanon, Saying, ‘Since you were cut down, No woodsman has come up against us.’
9 “Hell from beneath is excited about you, To meet you at your coming; It stirs up the dead for you, All the chief ones of the earth; It has raised up from their thrones All the kings of the nations.
10 They all shall speak and say to you: ‘Have you also become as weak as we? Have you become like us?
11 Your pomp is brought down to Sheol, And the sound of your stringed instruments; The maggot is spread under you, And worms cover you.’
The Fall of Lucifer
12 “How you are fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! How you are cut down to the ground, You who weakened the nations!
13 For you have said in your heart: ‘I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God; I will also sit on the mount of the congregation On the farthest sides of the north;
14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds, I will be like the Most High.’
15 Yet you shall be brought down to Sheol, To the lowest depths of the Pit.
16 “Those who see you will gaze at you, And consider you, saying: ‘Is this the man who made the earth tremble, Who shook kingdoms,
17 Who made the world as a wilderness And destroyed its cities, Who did not open the house of his prisoners?’
18 “All the kings of the nations, All of them, sleep in glory, Everyone in his own house;
19 But you are cast out of your grave Like an abominable branch, Like the garment of those who are slain, Thrust through with a sword, Who go down to the stones of the pit, Like a corpse trodden underfoot.
20 You will not be joined with them in burial, Because you have destroyed your land And slain your people. The brood of evildoers shall never be named.
21 Prepare slaughter for his children Because of the iniquity of their fathers, Lest they rise up and possess the land, And fill the face of the world with cities.”
Babylon Destroyed
22 “For I will rise up against them,” says the Lord of hosts, “And cut off from Babylon the name and remnant, And offspring and posterity,” says the Lord.
23 “I will also make it a possession for the porcupine, And marshes of muddy water; I will sweep it with the broom of destruction,” says the Lord of hosts.

My thoughts:

The book of Isaiah never once mentioned Satan. Satan is mentioned in the book of Job for the first time in the Bible. At a time when Satan was still able to have audience with God Almighty. That would be around the year 2,363 and that would make the book of Job the oldest book of the Bible or Tanakh.
Is Satan the only devil on the earth? I would say not. From my understanding, that would be 21 of them: Enoch's 200 who descended on Mt Hermon, reduced to 1/10 of them in Jubilees 10, plus Satan. BLACKJACK!
So, Lucifer if he is not a man (Nebuchadnezzar), could the name be of another fallen angel, another devil?
Angels are often referred to Sons of God. And we know there is a plethora of different types of angels, all created by God, and all immortal, unless...
Unless God destroys them. There is one instance of a Cherubim who was destroyed by God. One who paraded as a King and called himself a god: the king of Tyre.
We also know that After Babel, God scattered the nations and set their borders according to the number of the sons of God. (Deuteronomy 32:8). See also: The World is Under Angelic Rulers.
How many fallen angels (principalities; princes of darkness), are named in the Bible?
Satan (ruler of the world); King of Tyre (destroyed by God); possibly Lucifer; prince of Persia; prince of Greece (whom was none other than Satan); Gog prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal; Azazel (the scapegoat of Leviticus 16)...
It seems we only have the names of 6 of them. Could there be less than the initially thought 21? Why did God have the fallen angels thrown into the pit, but 4 of them are bound in the river Euphrates? Could it be they were too dangerous to be left under Satan?
Four bound, one destroyed, let's assume that it leaves us with 16 devils.

Side note. Famously materialized?
Satan: Zeus; King of Tyre: Poseidon; Azazel: appearence of a standing goat.

Gog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal

Another reason as to why the 2 events listed in Scriptures involving Gog are 2 separate events.

This is for my brothers and sisters in Christ.
God asks: "When My people Israel dwell safely, will you not know it?"
It refers to a time after the Israelites were scattered, and there no longer is a land promised to Moses, Aaron and Joshua.
A time when Israelites are not found, or are hidden. Today with DNA we now can know who is a descendant of Israelites.
This Gog event (Ezekiel 38) or 'evil plan', occurs during such a time. The Tanakh only readers know it, or maybe not? Maybe they were fooled like every one of us was, before we realized the wickedness of the minions of Gog.

Now for the Christian Bible readers.
The Day of the Lord, the day Christ returns.
Another Gog event in Revelation 20. This one will occur after Isaiah 11 is fulfilled and a thousand years of Christ's reign on earth.
He will rule the nations with the 144,000 from "the beloved city" (Jerusalem or New Jerusalem, I'm not sure). In those times, ALL will know who Israel the people are.

Gog and Allies Attack Israel

Ezekiel 38

1 Now the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 “Son of man, set your face against Gog, of the land of Magog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal, and prophesy against him,
3 and say, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “Behold, I am against you, O Gog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal.
4 I will turn you around, put hooks into your jaws, and lead you out, with all your army, horses, and horsemen, all splendidly clothed, a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords.
5 Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya are with them, all of them with shield and helmet;
6 Gomer and all its troops; the house of Togarmah from the far north and all its troops—many people are with you.
7 “Prepare yourself and be ready, you and all your companies that are gathered about you; and be a guard for them.
8 After many days you will be visited. In the latter years you will come into the land of those brought back from the sword and gathered from many people on the mountains of Israel, which had long been desolate; they were brought out of the nations, and now all of them dwell safely.
9 You will ascend, coming like a storm, covering the land like a cloud, you and all your troops and many peoples with you.”
10 ‘Thus says the Lord God: “On that day it shall come to pass that thoughts will arise in your mind, and you will make an evil plan:
11 You will say, ‘I will go up against a land of unwalled villages; I will go to a peaceful people, who dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates’—
12 to take plunder and to take booty, to stretch out your hand against the waste places that are again inhabited, and against a people gathered from the nations, who have acquired livestock and goods, who dwell in the midst of the land.
13 Sheba, Dedan, the merchants of Tarshish, and all their young lions will say to you, ‘Have you come to take plunder? Have you gathered your army to take booty, to carry away silver and gold, to take away livestock and goods, to take great plunder?’ ” ’
14 “Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say to Gog, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “On that day when My people Israel dwell safely, will you not know it?
15 Then you will come from your place out of the far north, you and many peoples with you, all of them riding on horses, a great company and a mighty army.
16 You will come up against My people Israel like a cloud, to cover the land. It will be in the latter days that I will bring you against My land, so that the nations may know Me, when I am hallowed in you, O Gog, before their eyes.”
17 Thus says the Lord God: “Are you he of whom I have spoken in former days by My servants the prophets of Israel, who prophesied for years in those days that I would bring you against them?

18 “And it will come to pass at the same time, when Gog comes against the land of Israel,” says the Lord God, “that My fury will show in My face.
19 For in My jealousy and in the fire of My wrath I have spoken: ‘Surely in that day there shall be a great earthquake in the land of Israel,
20 so that the fish of the sea, the birds of the heavens, the beasts of the field, all creeping things that creep on the earth, and all men who are on the face of the earth shall shake at My presence. The mountains shall be thrown down, the steep places shall fall, and every wall shall fall to the ground.’
21 I will call for a sword against Gog throughout all My mountains,” says the Lord God. “Every man’s sword will be against his brother.
22 And I will bring him to judgment with pestilence and bloodshed; I will rain down on him, on his troops, and on the many peoples who are with him, flooding rain, great hailstones, fire, and brimstone.
23 Thus I will magnify Myself and sanctify Myself, and I will be known in the eyes of many nations. Then they shall know that I am the Lord.” ’

This Christian grandmother explains how Muslims, Jews and Christians lived as equal

"descendants of Gomer were Ashkenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah."

When My people Israel dwell safely, will you not know it?

Part 3. A third take on explaining my understanding of Gog, of the land of Magog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal, as mentioned in Ezekiel 38
1) Gog is a principality, not a man. He is a Prince, as Michael is a Prince, as are the Prince of Persia and the Prince of Greece.
2) Magog was a son of Japheth, later a land area where his descendants lived.
3) Magog (the people) do not participate in the 'evil plan' of Gog.
4) "Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya are with them, all of them with shield and helmet; Gomer and all its troops; the house of Togarmah from the far north and all its troops—many people are with you." These are the people who participate in the 'evil plan'.
1 Chronicles 1:6 "descendants of Gomer were Ashkenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah."

Were Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya with Gomer and the house of Togarmah?
Yes, in 1948, Israel became part of what analysts later described as the “Periphery Alliance”—a network of non-Arab regional partners including Iran, Turkey, and Ethiopia designed to offset strategic isolation in the Middle East.

Why is God asking this question to Gog? God, is basically saying are you really going to do that?
God describes the 'evil plan' and his people. And Ezekiel writes it down.

Ezekiel 38

8 After many days you will be visited. In the latter years you will come into the land of those brought back from the sword and gathered from many people on the mountains of Israel, which had long been desolate; they were brought out of the nations, and now all of them dwell safely.
9 You will ascend, coming like a storm, covering the land like a cloud, you and all your troops and many peoples with you.”
10 ‘Thus says the Lord God: “On that day it shall come to pass that thoughts will arise in your mind, and you will make an evil plan:
11 You will say, ‘I will go up against a land of unwalled villages; I will go to a peaceful people, who dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates’—
12 to take plunder and to take booty, to stretch out your hand against the waste places that are again inhabited, and against a people gathered from the nations, who have acquired livestock and goods, who dwell in the midst of the land.
13 Sheba, Dedan, the merchants of Tarshish, and all their young lions will say to you, ‘Have you come to take plunder? Have you gathered your army to take booty, to carry away silver and gold, to take away livestock and goods, to take great plunder?’ ” ’
14 “Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say to Gog, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “On that day when My people Israel dwell safely, will you not know it?
15 Then you will come from your place out of the far north, you and many peoples with you, all of them riding on horses, a great company and a mighty army.
16 You will come up against My people Israel like a cloud, to cover the land. It will be in the latter days that I will bring you against My land, so that the nations may know Me, when I am hallowed in you, O Gog, before their eyes.”

Palestinian village 1947

God says 'my people Israel', brought back; 'gathered from many people on the mountains of Israel'; 'brought out of the nations, and now all of them dwell safely'.
Description of the land and the people:
"a land of unwalled villages; I will go to a peaceful people, who dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates"
It looks like the picture to the right, not today's state of Israel that has walls everywhere, and a people definitely not peaceful, but arrogant, spiteful, and murderous.
So you say they are not Jews. No, they are Christians or a majority Muslim.
Fact, they are Muslims, because they were forced to convert to Islam (Muslim conquests of 680 AD). 
So what religions were practiced if any before the Islamic conquest? More than likely Judaism or Christianity. Is the fact that they're a majority Muslim a factor for God?

No, when did it stop God from changing their heart?
Today, many Muslims all over the world have become Christians, and many upon calling on God (In their language and attribute), where choked to have a vision of Jesus Christ who came to them and answered their call.
And Before, or at Christ's return, they, Muslims of Jews will worship the Son of Man. He shall consume the false prophet and the antichrist.

It baffles me that some Christians are actually looking forward to the 3rd temple, where the antichrist will sit and claim to be God. Haven't Jews read Zechariah? (more so those living in the state of Israel, because what's coming isn't going to be very pleasant) Can't they see how wrong they are?

Zechariah 13

8 And it shall come to pass in all the land,” Says the Lord, “That two-thirds in it shall be cut off and die, But one-third shall be left in it:
9 I will bring the one-third through the fire, Will refine them as silver is refined, And test them as gold is tested. They will call on My name, And I will answer them. I will say, ‘This is My people’; And each one will say, ‘The Lord is my God.’ ”

(end of Zechariah 13)

Zechariah 14

1 Behold, the day of the Lord is coming, And your spoil will be divided in your midst.
2 For I will gather all the nations to battle against Jerusalem; The city shall be taken, The houses rifled, And the women ravished. Half of the city shall go into captivity, But the remnant of the people shall not be cut off from the city.
3 Then the Lord will go forth And fight against those nations, As He fights in the day of battle.
4 And in that day His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, Which faces Jerusalem on the east. And the Mount of Olives shall be split in two, From east to west, Making a very large valley; Half of the mountain shall move toward the north And half of it toward the south.

Where did Jesus Christ ascend from? Where is he supposed to return on the ground, after appearing in the clouds?
The Mount of Olives.

Video below will start at 59:42 for the following comments of Prof. Jeffrey Sachs:
"Even though the Palestinian people were living there for well over a thousand years, probably incidentally according to some historical studies and interpretations perhaps Jews who converted to Islam in the 7th century when Islam swept across the eastern Mediterranean, Iran and North Africa in its foundational moments.
The Islamic societies the UMAYYAD and ABBASID Caliphates enabled Jews and Christians to live within the Islamic lands to live peacefully and to govern themselves primarily but to pay a tax. And so as a way to a avoid taxes many people converted we know this. And probably today's Palestinians many of them are descendants from across centuries of Jews who were the settlers who were living there before the 7th century sweep of Islam across the land.
Even David Ben-Gurion the so-called founder of the state of Israel held that view in the 1930s and 40s calling the Palestinians really the original Jews of the land who probably converted and became the Palestinians." _ Jeffrey Sachs

Gog of the Land of Magog - Gog and Magog

{Texts in italics are my commentaries according to my understanding.}
Who is Gog?
Gog is not a man or a human. He is a principality, a fallen angel, a prince because the land of Magog was assigned to him.
When?
Deuteronomy 32:7-8 tells us of the scattering of the people, after the Tower of Babel, according to the number of the 'sons of God'. Only the ESV translation uses the term 'sons of God'. The others somehow use the term 'children of Israel', which make no sense, since we're dealing of an event when even Abraham was not born.
Genesis 6, does mention the 'sons of God' appropriately. Unfortunately, many attribute the 'sons of God' as the sons of Seth, refusing to acknowledge the existence of fallen angels, and their ability to take human form.

Genesis 6

1 Now it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born to them,
2 that the sons of God saw the daughters of men, that they were beautiful; and they took wives for themselves of all whom they chose.
3 And the Lord said, “My Spirit shall not strive with man forever, for he is indeed flesh; yet his days shall be one hundred and twenty years.”
4 There were giants on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of men and they bore children to them. Those were the mighty men who were of old, men of renown.

The progenies of the fallen angels also called Watchers in the book of Enoch, later called principalities or princes, after the scattering of the people, are called Nephilim. Jubilees 7 tells us of three types of Nephilim: giants; Naphil; and Eljo's.
Pay attention of what Genesis 6 tells us: "in those days, and also afterward"
What happened between "in those days, and also afterward"?
The Flood happened, killing everything on earth (but not in the sea). The world was renewed by height people, the family of Noah.
Did the fallen angels die? NO, they are immortals. The Nephilim however died.
So what happened to the Watchers? Where they punished?
Well, according to Jubilees 10, after the Flood, most were bound in the pit. 1/10 of them were left free under the supervision of Satan, and they are now princes of assigned land masses. Gog is one of them. This should give you a hint of who rules the world (for now).

An Event Well Planned

There are four parts to this 'evil plan': Conspiracy; Historical facts; Prophecy; 'Conspiracy Theory' (my theory).
Judaism with it's traditions, worship practices, was not particular to only those called Israelites or Judahites. Elsewhere in the world many civilisations followed the teachings of Noah and his sons. Abraham spent decades with and learned from Noah and Shem (Jasher 9) who knew the Creator, the Almighty God. Japhetites, took those teachings all the way to today China and later the Americas. Hamites is Africa had also similar practices. You could say the whole world at first worshiped the same God, aside for those who in time worshiped Nephilims and fallen angels ('men of renown'). A good example is the Greeks with Zeus, who was none other than Satan in a humanoid form. (Revelation 2:12-13)
Jesus Christ is born; crucified; and resurected. It is then that some Jews, became followers of Christ, and others in protest, helped grow Judaism. Judaism just like Christianity, took a stand. Christians were persecuted by the Pagan world and... And Europe at large including the land of Magog saw a growth of converts of Judaism. Gog's followers the few men whom he wisperred to, made it happen.
Then the persecution of the Jews had to happen all over the world: Queen Isabela of Spain did a pretty good job. Hitler did an even better job with his gas chambers. The Satanic family of Rothschild had drawn the Balfour Declaration, between WW1 and WW2 (as if they knew WW2 and Hitler would happen). WWII ends and here comes the UN to the rescue, armed with the Balfour Declaration, to create a new nation for the Jews, in a land at the time controlled by the British. The rest is recent history, and the fullfilement of Ezekiel 38. In 1948, "Gomer and all its troops; the house of Togarmah from the far north and all its troops—many people are with you." They may have fooled people, but they didn't fool God (Revelation 2:9 and 3:9). What followed is the Nakba and the subjugation of the peaceful people who lived there, native to the land, most of them descendants of Israelites who converted by force to Islam when the Islamic conquests began.
In 1947, Muslims; Jews (Judahites); and Christians lived together peacefully, with no walls, bars of gates.
In 1948, Gog's 'evil plan' supervised by Satan, came to fruition.

Ezekiel 38

5 Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya are with them, all of them with shield and helmet;
6 Gomer and all its troops; the house of Togarmah from the far north and all its troops—many people are with you.
7 “Prepare yourself and be ready, you and all your companies that are gathered about you; and be a guard for them.
8 After many days you will be visited. In the latter years you will come into the land of those brought back from the sword and gathered from many people on the mountains of Israel, which had long been desolate; they were brought out of the nations, and now all of them dwell safely.
9 You will ascend, coming like a storm, covering the land like a cloud, you and all your troops and many peoples with you.”
10 ‘Thus says the Lord God: “On that day it shall come to pass that thoughts will arise in your mind, and you will make an evil plan:
11 You will say, ‘I will go up against a land of unwalled villages; I will go to a peaceful people, who dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates’—
12 to take plunder and to take booty, to stretch out your hand against the waste places that are again inhabited, and against a people gathered from the nations, who have acquired livestock and goods, who dwell in the midst of the land.
13 Sheba, Dedan, the merchants of Tarshish, and all their young lions will say to you, ‘Have you come to take plunder? Have you gathered your army to take booty, to carry away silver and gold, to take away livestock and goods, to take great plunder?’ ” ’
14 “Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say to Gog, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “On that day when My people Israel dwell safely, will you not know it?
15 Then you will come from your place out of the far north, you and many peoples with you, all of them riding on horses, a great company and a mighty army.
16 You will come up against My people Israel like a cloud, to cover the land. It will be in the latter days that I will bring you against My land, so that the nations may know Me, when I am hallowed in you, O Gog, before their eyes.”
17 Thus says the Lord God: “Are you he of whom I have spoken in former days by My servants the prophets of Israel, who prophesied for years in those days that I would bring you against them?

Proof that Ezekiel 38 was fulfilled in 1948. Historical fact of 1948: Israel became part of what analysts later described as the “Periphery Alliance”—a network of non-Arab regional partners including Iran, Turkey, and Ethiopia designed to offset strategic isolation in the Middle East.
Yes, the invaders and Iran were allies.

Scripture	Ezekiel 38 'evil plan'	Revelation 20 (rebellion)
Year	5,952	7,000
When?	"In the latter days" "In the latter years"	"At the end of the 1,000 years" "when the thousand years have expired, Satan will be released"
Who ?	"Gomer and all its troops; the house of Togarmah from the far north"	"Gog and Magog"
How it Ends	"I will turn you around, put hooks into your jaws, and lead you out" "I will call for a sword against Gog throughout all My mountains" “Every man’s sword will be against his brother."	"And fire came down from God out of heaven and devoured them." "The devil, who deceived them, was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone where the beast and the false prophet are. And they will be tormented day and night forever and ever."

Now some commentaries.
Who are Gomer, the house of Togarmah from the far North?
Gomer was a son of Japheth: "The sons of Japheth were Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras." He had three sons: "The sons of Gomer were Ashkenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah." In 1 Chronicles 1, Riphath is called Diphath.
Ashkenazi Jews are converts descendants of Ashkenaz, son of Gomer, son of Japheth.
The sons of Gomer, populated the areas known today: France, Germany, and around there. Sons of Gomer were known as the 'Francum' as stated in the book of Jasher chapter 10 (the best book when it comes to genealogies and migrations).
Ezekiel doesn't mention Magog participating in the invasion, but the sons of Gomer and others from North Africa. Most of North Africa was French colonies at that time.
The people invaded are peaceful people. They don't even have walls around their dwellings. In today's nation of Israel, there are walls every where, and we can't say that they've been peaceful in their 75 years of existance.
They will not know peace until the return of Christ on the Mount of Olives, and the Day of The Lord, day when all survivors will turn to Christ.
That future prophecy in Zechariah 14, will usher the Kingdom of God on earth. And that is very soon.

Zechariah 14

1 Behold, the day of the Lord is coming, And your spoil will be divided in your midst.
2 For I will gather all the nations to battle against Jerusalem; The city shall be taken, The houses rifled, And the women ravished. Half of the city shall go into captivity, But the remnant of the people shall not be cut off from the city.
3 Then the Lord will go forth And fight against those nations, As He fights in the day of battle.
4 And in that day His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, Which faces Jerusalem on the east. And the Mount of Olives shall be split in two, From east to west, Making a very large valley; Half of the mountain shall move toward the north And half of it toward the south.

Satan's Wrath

The day of the Lord is coming very soon. We are in the latter days, all curent geopolitical events point to it. The US and the nation of Israel are about to strike Iran. Every military analyst with comon sense know that the retaliation will be devastating, for the naval forces; US bases in the region; and for Israel. then a ground invasion is likely and is prophecied. But the Lord will not let Jerusalem completely fall. His remnant he shall save.
Zechariah 13, the chapter prior, tells that 2/3 in the land shall die.

Zechariah 13

8 And it shall come to pass in all the land,” Says the Lord, “That two-thirds in it shall be cut off and die, But one-third shall be left in it:
9 I will bring the one-third through the fire, Will refine them as silver is refined, And test them as gold is tested. They will call on My name, And I will answer them. I will say, ‘This is My people’; And each one will say, ‘The Lord is my God.’ ”

(following are commentaries about Revelation 20. link below) After the Lords return, and Satan is bound, Christ will reign on earth, King of Kings, Lord of Lords, for 1,000 years.
The Kingdom of God, the world will be unlike anything any men have experienced. There will no more tears, no more famine, the laws of men will be obsolete, wicked rulers will be removed and eradicated, the laws will be God's Law as stated in Exodus, Leviticus, and Deuteronomy.
Will all men be satisfied, happy, and obedient?
Note that aging will have returned as it was prior to the Flood. Righteous men will live hundreds of years.
After 1,000 years, comes God's final test prior to the Day of Judgement. Satan will be released one last time to tempt the nations into a rebellion.
Gog will lead Magog and other nations in the last rebellion that will seperate the sheep from the goats, life eternal and the lake of fire.

Revelation 20

Inspired by Noah and his family. Ancient Chinese knew the story.

Do repetitions in Scriptures mean it is the Same Event?

In the case of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, yes, as they describe the same accounts of the life of Jesus.

Mount of Olives or Mt Olivet, is mentioned in different parts of the Bible.
Is it the same event? NO!
2 Samuel; 1 Kings; Zechariah; and in the New Testament.
And NO they are not the same event.

When Satan is mentioned, is it the same event? NO, of course not.

How many principalities' names are given in the Bible? Satan and Gog. Both are nefarious.
(At the time I was developing this post, another principality escaped my mind. I forgot about Azazel. Depending on your version of the Bible, he is called the scapegoat or simply Azazel.) All right, how did I miss those other two?
Daniel 10:20 Then he said, “Do you know why I have come to you? And now I must return to fight with the prince of Persia; and when I have gone forth, indeed the prince of Greece will come.
If I am not mistaken, the prince of Greece is none other than Satan. Pergamos is in Greece, place "where Satan dwells", at the time when John wrote Revelation 2.  And indeed the Greeks invaded the land (and persecuted the Jews) before the Romans at the time of Jesus' life.

How many times is Gog mentioned? Twice exactly. Is it the same event? NO, it is not.
One is the 'evil plan' against peaceful people, the other is to lead those who despise Christ's rule on earth to take Jerusalem the place of the throne of God. (God's last test for humanity)
Who knows maybe the people will think they can kill God. But for Satan, Gog and the other principalities, it's their last hoorah, knowing they'll all end up in the lake of fire taking with them a multitude of people. Make no mistake some people will hate Christ's rule on earth, and God's Laws.
One occurs after the Millennial Reign of Christ on earth, the other started in 1948.

What is Magog?

1. The name of one of the sons of Japheth;
2. Later, it is the region the descendants of Magog migrated to and settled in.

Wy do people think Gog is a man? He is NOT, the Bible is clear on this.
Deuteronomy 32:8 When the Most High gave to the nations their inheritance, when he divided mankind, he fixed the borders of the peoples according to the number of the sons of God.

Who are the sons of God? There you have to seek a little further: Enoch (200 of them); Jubilees God allowed one tenth of them to remain under Satan's command (20 of them).

Know this, these prophecies haven't been fulfilled yet: Zechariah 13 and 14.
Books didn't have chapters, men made chapters for easy reference.
14 follows 13: The Day of the Lord. It doesn't mention Gog and Magog, but it says "I will gather all the nations to battle against Jerusalem"
And yes he is coming back to the same place he left from. (he said so): the Mount of Olives.

The Francum

Gog and Magog

Ezekiel 38:1 Now the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 “Son of man, set your face against Gog, of the land of Magog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal, and prophesy against him,
3 and say, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “Behold, I am against you, O Gog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal.
4 I will turn you around, put hooks into your jaws, and lead you out, with all your army, horses, and horsemen, all splendidly clothed, a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords.
5 Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya are with them, all of them with shield and helmet;
6 Gomer and all its troops; the house of Togarmah from the far north and all its troops—many people are with you.
7 “Prepare yourself and be ready, you and all your companies that are gathered about you; and be a guard for them.
8 After many days you will be visited. In the latter years you will come into the land of those brought back from the sword and gathered from many people on the mountains of Israel, which had long been desolate; they were brought out of the nations, and now all of them dwell safely.
9 You will ascend, coming like a storm, covering the land like a cloud, you and all your troops and many peoples with you.”
10 ‘Thus says the Lord God: “On that day it shall come to pass that thoughts will arise in your mind, and you will make an evil plan:
11 You will say, ‘I will go up against a land of unwalled villages; I will go to a peaceful people, who dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates’—
12 to take plunder and to take booty, to stretch out your hand against the waste places that are again inhabited, and against a people gathered from the nations, who have acquired livestock and goods, who dwell in the midst of the land.

Gog is not only the 'Prince of Magog', but also of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal.
Genesis 10:3 The sons of Gomer were Ashkenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah.
They became the ones known as 'The Francum'.
Gomer was a son of Japheth. The house of Togarmah is of Gomer also. Do you recognise the name: Ashkenaz? The Francum?
I'll give you a hint: Ashkenazi Jews. What about France the land of the Franks, Francum? Yes, There are many Ashkenazi Jews in France.
That's right, they are not Semites (of Shem). Yet, in 1948 they invaded the land that is now called the nation of Israel, and brought in other European settlers. Yes, descendants of Gomer usurped the ethnic Jews. Prior to 1948 and the Nakba, the people living there, had dwellings with no surounding property walls, bars, nor gates, and raised livestock. How many children have been unjustly killed for the past 75 years? How do you think Jesus feels about it?

The 2nd event involving 'Gog and Magog' points to a time in the future after the Millenium Kingdom of Christ on earth.

Revelation 20

Satanic Rebellion Crushed
7 Now when the thousand years have expired, Satan will be released from his prison
8 and will go out to deceive the nations which are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle, whose number is as the sand of the sea.
9 They went up on the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city. And fire came down from God out of heaven and devoured them.

Because of the political use of Scriptures by deceivers, I felt that I had to clarify and remove confusion from God's word.

The ISRAEL Deception — How the Church Tricked the World!

Click on YouTube icon in video to watch on YouTube, for additional references. Unfortunately, this video has been pulled from YouTube. (I am not surprised)

Excellent secular viewpoint! Is it backed by prophecy, and is there a spiritual element? For one, backtrack 4,300 years ago and Jesus's word. 'You do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but with principalities of the air'. Jubilees 10 tells us that 1/10 of the fallen ones were allowed to remain in the world under the supervision of Satan.
Who is Gog, but a principality that has been unravelling the deception for centuries (a very real influencer of nations).
'Magog, Gomer and his troops'. A little genealogy and ancient migrations are necessary. After Babel, the sons of Noah migrated throughout the earth. Japheth's sons Magog; Gomer; and their sons, migrated to Northern Europe, East and West. One of the sons of Gomer, is Ashkinaz (a prominent group that adopted Judaism, but are not ethnic Jews). Source of migrations book of Jasher chap. 10.
The descendants of Japheth, from Europe to the East and Asia, did observe the same religious traditions than the descendants of Shem. In Asia it was replaced by Buddhism; Taoism; and Confucianism, coincidence, just about when Jesus was born. In European nations, some already had adopted Paganism.

What prophecy wasn't fulfilled in 1948, and hasn't been fulfilled yet, but was used for deception? Isaiah 11 (the regathering).
What prophecy unravelled in 1948? Ezekiel 38 ('The Evil Plan' of Gog), not quite yet over. But what will follow is Zechariah 14. (The Day of the Lord)
What of Revelation 20 you say? Gog and Magog occurs twice. Satan and his accolytes will be bound for a 1,000 years, but they will be released in order to deceive the nations that will dislike Christ's Reign on earth in the near future. Yes, again Gog will entice Magog for a final war once more, before Judgement day.
