The problem with many in understanding this "prophecy" (Israel will fall and not be a state), is that it has already been "fulfilled". The other problem with mankind's understanding of real prophecies is that much of it doesn't even happen in the span of a normal human life.
An Egyptian swore to me that his prophet, Mohamed, promised that Israel will no longer be. I didn't want to press his brain into thinking about what he said, but I wanted to remind him that human history is a lot older they he. There use to be a Roman Empire that abolished Jews from their own home rule. They had an agenda to re-invent the area and even gave the land of Israel a Grecco-Romanized name (Palestine). Later, Jihad had removed not only Jewish, but Christian self rule from the Middle East too.
So the prophesy isn't really a prophesy at all. It's history (and perhaps the only "glory days" of Jihad). Israel is very much a real nation reestablished (as it has done so historically from past conquerors). Israel and Jews are so indelible as a nation and people that History gives witness that God, the Author of History, has indeed made the Jews the apple of His eye.
Thus, there are only two options for gentiles:
1) convert to Judaism; or,
2) convert to Christianity (Universal Christian Catholicism is pretty much the same thing as being Jewish since all of the rituals are Jewish in nature...except circumcision and some dietary disciplines).
For the Catholic/Jewish connection: The indelibly of the Catholic Church proves to Jewish spiritual leadership that God's Spirit is indeed with the the Catholic Church (how else can unmarried men be priests and still attract more to the priesthood for all of these centuries). Thus, in the nature of Truth as understood by Jewish elders (probably those of mankind who understand God best, but admit that they know nothing), God proves via History and the test of time that Jesus is the Messiah.
Mercifully, the Holy Trinity gives us so much time to reconcile to this Truth. Iranian leadership will not hasten the "coming" return of the Messiah since He returns on His own schedule. Rather, this sort of error in thinking will hasten their own end. To give more credit to this pattern of thought is to concede to the "dictatorship of relativism" (as coined by the new Pope). I suspect that such men would be so fixated with jealous hatred that in parting with their life, they would utter what the Nazi, Goebbels, had said of his tenure (only bragged about how many Jews he killed).
The more mankind responds to his desire of self rule in the Middle East, they will separate and remove this "prophet" from the True God. Souls, unobstructed by the terror of Persian theocracy, will journey to the Most Attractive and Gentlest, and Christ's message will not be ignored (as neither beliefs of Christianity nor Judaism have abandoned Iranians).
That God allows such errors to persist is testimony to His Divine Mercy that He wants us to reconcile to the Truth, Jesus, without the force of fear that would dominate or remove us from our precious gift of free will.

Geeez, and some people can't understand why the global community is a little irate at the idea of Iran becoming a nuclear power....
