Why would Russia unload everything on North America if it invaded Israel?

If Russia moved to invade Israel, its leaders would recognize America as the only nation likely to oppose them, since America is Israel’s only friend. To prevent American intervention, they would strike North America first, unloading everything to remove the only possible enemy and knock the Western Hemisphere out of prophecy.

Les explains this as speculation and common sense: if the Kremlin or another power in the northern confederation were getting ready to invade the little nation of Israel, they would realize only one nation on earth might oppose them—America, because America is the only friend Israel has in the world. Russian leaders would understand that if they invade Israel, America will probably come to her defense. So he projects that they would say, “Let’s unload everything we have on North America,” the only possible enemy, and utterly knock the Western Hemisphere out of the rest of prophecy, because there is nothing for us in prophecy. He also cites Time Magazine saying every missile ever pointed at America is still sitting there, still pointed at the American target. Then, when God sends fire on the Russian homeland, he thinks our submarines all over the oceans with ballistic missiles would still retaliate and destroy it. He says this is not to arouse fear but is just common sense.
