Does it matter? We’re supposed to expect Mashiach whether or not anything in particular is happening to scare us
It matters IF the basis for saying “Moshicah is coming soon” is because of the troubles in the world, which is what the OP is doing.
I agree that we should be expecting him anyway. But if you’re going to base his imminent arrival on current events, you need to show why those events are different than any of those in the past when those people too could have said “Moshiach is coming soon” and he didn’t.
