"There is ... no stage or platform on earth so well suited for the manifesting of the mystery of the Shemitah as America. Is the Isreal connection necessary for the mystery to manifest? No. It could manifest to any nation, just as God could send a warning of national judgment to any nation. No unique connection to ancient Israel is needed for America to be given a biblical sign of national judgment." The Mystery of the Shemitah, p. 58, Jonathan Cahn

The "coulds" and "mights" are more that evident.
And just like finding a sycamore tree in an area where such are sometimes found is possible, so is the possibility that something "could" happen.
The problem, and one that I have mentioned over and over is the leap from "the first and original" to "as a prophetic sign." There needs to be more than a desire for it to be true for it to be true. The bible has never been primarily a code book for such study. Except according to people who have nothing better to do than create myths and endless genealogies.
And I thought Lee had us bamboozled. This guy reads some verses, declares that it is prophetic about America, and cherry-picks events that are claimed to fit the prophecies. Of course there are a few left un-fulfilled. So you have to buy his book to learn more about it.
