THere are some Christians organizations who claim that the passage in Ezekiel 38 refers to a Russian-Arab invasion of Israel. That "Magog" refers to Russia. I am curious as to what Jews think of that.

i, do not. not because maybe it isn’t but because the standard approach to prophecy is that we don’t try to use it to anticipate events or decipher our current world.
I’m sure you can find some that do, but Jews generally do not make those kind of connections that many Christians seem anxious to do.
Instead, Jews focus on "repairing the world".

I think that this is also in the Qu’ran. Would someone be kind enough to confirm?
I am not Jewish, but Christian. One of Jehovah’s Witnesses. I answered to show that not all who profess to be Christians believe that Gog of Magog refers to Russia or Arabian governments.
It refers to the Satanic attack against God’s people earth wide in the time of the end.
It does not. It refers to the immense power Magog has over Humanity. And the ruler of this world is no other than Satan. It refers to the devil
to eddie the J(ew) the world doesn’t need you or other jews repairing anything its fine the way it is. unless of course your g-d made an imperfect world in which needs repairs. if so why would he leave it for someone else to repair it, it reminds me of buying a car, thinking everything is fine, but when you bring it home it needs repairs. that doesn’t seem right wouldn’t the owner before hand give you a fixed car that run, then it would be incumbent upon you to keep up the maintenance but for you eddie you self appointed mechanic for the world, we don’t want your machinations put upon up, let us be ourselves and you be yourselves. btw, isn’t the diaspora over, last time i checked israel has existed for at least 60 years, why aren’t you there living amongst your people, the jews, and helping israel prosper? why are you letting other jews fight for zion, while you wallow away your days the gentile lands of america. man-up and do your duty as a jew go to israel and serve the cause.
I don’t believe that, because first off, what interests would Russia have in Israel. It’s a tiny country withy no natural resources. Second, there are hundreds of thousands of Russians in Israel (not even counting the Russian jews, I’m talking about Orthodox Christian Russians). And third, Israel has hundreds of nuclear weapons, so any war between Russia and Israel would be a nuclear war, and no one wins those types of wars.
