There has been some time lapse between events fulfilling the prophecy made known to Daniel in chapter 11:45 to 12:1B where it states "He will pitch his royal pavilion between the sea and the holy hill, the fairest of all hills; and he will meet his end with no one to help him"..."But at that moment your people will be delivered, [or will escape] every one who is written in the book" -- and chapter 12 verse 2. (Dan 11:45. 12:1B NEB).

The "sea" here referred to is not the Mediterranean Sea nearest to the holy hill, but the Arabian Sea, where "royal pavilions" (symbolic meaning: authority) were imposed by Iraqi armed forces in the firing of SCUD missiles on the Jewish nation in the land of Israel, from desert positions between the Arabian Sea in the Persian Gulf and the holy hill in Jerusalem. In Daniel 12:1 it states: "At that moment Michael shall appear". This was when Michael, thousands of years later, stood guard over Daniel's native people the Jews, using American soldiers to fire intercepting PATRIOT missiles to destroy the SCUD missiles on impact in mid-air.

'PATRIOT' means "fellow countrymen", as prophesied about in Daniel 12:1.

The lapse previously referred to is between the events above and regarding what follows in verse two of chapter twelve, where it says: "Many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth will wake, some to everlasting life and some to the reproach of eternal abhorrence." These are to be resurrected ones, much later in time to that of the time when Michael intervened against the spirit prince of Persia.

The authority behind the current 'kings' of Iraq and Iran has been this demon angel called the "angel prince of Persia", who exercised his power at that time, ruling over those rulers. (Dan 10:20). Michael (the heavenly name of The Christ) came to the assistance of the angel of God after this angel was resisted by the angel prince of the kingdom of Persia for twenty-one days (Dan 10:13); and stood "guard over your fellow-countrymen" without need of retaliation by Jewish forces.
