Krieger asserts that ''Gog'' is a chief spiritual “principality” against Israel and that Meshech, Tubal, Gomer and Togarmah constitute peoples populating the modern state of [[Turkey]]; whereas they, together with [[Persia]], are allied as the “king of the North” in {{bibleverse||Daniel|11:40|NKJV}} and that the “king of the South” ({{bibleverse||Daniel|11:40|NKJV}}) is comprised of the modern states of Egypt, Libya and [[Sudan]] (ancient Ethiopia – not the Cush of the [[Levant]] or of ancient [[Assyria]]) - all allied against [[Antichrist]]. Those allied with Israel in the Gog-Magog conflict are the modern states of the Saudi [[Arabian Peninsula]] (Sheba and Dedan – {{bibleverse||Ezekiel|38:13|NKJV}}) and [[the West]] (i.e., “the merchants of Tarshish” headed up by the [[United States of America]]” – the leader of the West). Finally, Krieger conjectures, that whereas the center of the conflict in Ezekiel is Israel, the center of the conflict in {{bibleverse||Daniel|11:40-43|NKJV}} is Antichrist who is allied with Israel—the same conflict.
