It is really very interesting that the prophecy speculators often mix nationalism in with their prophecies. As if some people are in greater need of repentance than the others are, they are interested in the welfare of them specifically. They want national repentance so that God will "heal this land" and they can live in safety and peace. Many of them assume that if their country obeys God, then we will reap the blessings God promised to ancient Israel.
