Ezekiel Prophecy
Tag-MehirTzedek:
On second thought, I remember Rav Kahane ZTL HYD having a chapter on this topic in his Sefer Hakadosh Or Harayon. Perhaps later I will review this and see his insights and sources etc.
Tag-MehirTzedek:
It seems all the nations fighting against Jerusalem comes from
Zechariah Chapter 14
http://www.mechon-mamre.org/p/pt/pt2314.htm (Read the whole and see in context).
Perhaps these are 2 different time period and different wars?

Just glanced at the chapter he does bring sources and I just saw something stating "threefold" Nations will seize control of EY 3 times. Soo perhaps these being different wars (what i said, could be true) Or perpahs some of these thing already happened? Will try to further investigation later.
Check Pirkei DeRabbi Eliezer, 28) Or Harayon English page 986).

An article I quoted mentioned this, but explains that Gog UMagog will come three times against us:
--- Quote ---When the Talmud refers to Sancheriv as Gog and Magog, it means the entire force that he assembled to destroy Jerusalem at that time. Indeed, that seems to be one of the main criterion of the War of Gog and Magog, as the Leshem explains:
After Moshiach comes, a major war will be instigated against Israel, as mentioned in the Holy Zohar (Shemos 7b), and in Parashas Vayaira (119a) and Toldos (139). This is the War of Gog and Magog spoken about in Yechezkel (38, 39), and Zechariah (14), as well as in Midrash Tehillim (Mizmor 118:9). There it says: Three times in the future Gog and Magog will come against Israel and go up against Jerusalem, and assemble and anger the nations with him to go up to Jerusalem … (Sha’arei Leshem, p. 491)
Hence, there are meant to be three separate wars of Gog and Magog, and according to the following, two have already occurred:
“While in London I heard from the holy Rabbi Elchanan Wasserman, quoting the Chofetz Chaim, that Chazal say the War of Gog and Magog will be threefold. After the First World War, the Chofetz Chaim said that it was the first battle of Gog and Magog, and that in about 25 years there would be a second world war, which would make the first one seem insignificant. Then there would be a third battle …” (Leiv Eliyahu, Shemos, p. 172)
