I once heard a vort about Gog/magog, that it comes from the concept of “GAG” i.e. roof.
A roof is a physical thing that gives us (we think) physical protection.
This is in contrast to the concept of Sukkah.
A sukkah is a very frail structure that we stay in on Sukkos. It represents the idea that protection or security does NOT come from anything physical, it comes from HKB”H.
So… The ultimate battle will be between those who believe in “GAG” (the physical) and those who believe in “SUKKAH” (the spiritual).
It is well known that for moslems, even their “spiritual” is really physical – look at what they believe their “olam haba” – paradise – will be… let’s just call it “physical pleasures”.
So – to answer your question…
I would say that what is going on in the moslem world is the preface to that ultimate battle.
