Jonathan Cahn compares the Assyrian invasion of Israel 2,000+ years ago with todays attack on America's World Trade Center in his book The Harbinger.  America's reaction to 9-11 has been much the same as Israel's was in the invasion by the Assyrians and if America does not return back to God as our forefathers, and continues as Israel did in defiance to God, it's future will be the same as Israel's when GOD lifted His protection.
