“Israel”

On that day I will make Jerusalem a heavy stone for all the peoples. All who lift it will surely hurt themselves. And all the nations of the earth will gather against it. 
On that day, declares the LORD, I will strike every horse with panic, and its rider with madness. But for the sake of the house of Judah I will keep my eyes open, when I strike every horse of the peoples with blindness. Zechariah 12:3-4
Scripture such as we read in Zechariah Ch.12 make clear to us New Covenant believers, what is Israel’s standing in the Lord, and how he - and he alone - will ultimately protect them. What we are seeing is likely only the beginning of this. 
If he is able to preserve them through such great shaking as never known before, then he is surely able to preserve them through this, the beginning of birth pangs.
We must not forget that we are New Testament believers; followers of Yeshua - who we recognize as the Messiah. 
We must not compromise this belief for anything or anyone - whether they be Jew or Gentile. 
So, in light of the escalating tensions between Israel and Iran, and America’s entrenchment in it, I would recommend that every believer read the Book of Romans, Ch.9, 10 & 11:- Paul the Apostle’s teachings on Israel’s position with the Lord, and his instructions to us, the believers, on how we are to view and to treat them. 
Let us nor forget, that the name “Israel” means “who strives with God”, and (with the exception of a chosen remnant) they will continue to strive with him, until in his good time, he removes the veil from their eyes, according to Romans 11, and they will finally see him as he is.
In the midst of wars and rumors of wars, we must be careful that we do not lose sight of who is our Messiah, what it is that we believe and what he has commissioned us to do. (Matthew 28:18-20).

And ultimately, we must remember: This world is not our home, and our true allegiance is not to any earthly place or nation, but to a heavenly Kingdom:- Hebrews Ch.11.
