Show me once piece of evidence that Gog / Magog is Russia. This was a Cold War fantasy concocted by the heretical Dispensationalists to prove that we were in the "last days".

The Soviet Union is dead and Russia has their owns problems with Muslims in their country and on their southern border.

OriginsThe etymology of Gog/Magog remains uncertain, although it seems likely that one is derived from the other. The ma- at the beginning of Magog may indicate a land or it may mean "from", so that Magog means "of the land of Gog" or "from Gog". "Gog" itself may be the Hebrew version of the name Gyges, a king of Lydia who reigned roughly a century before the time of the prophet Ezekiel and made his kingdom a great power in the region - in Akkadian, the language of Babylon, Gyges was known as "Gugu", and if Ezekiel's Gog is Gugu/Gyges then "Magog" would mean "Land of Gyges".[4]

Alternatively, Gog might derive from Magog. In this case "Magog" might refer to the magi of Cappadocia (modern Turkey) and Media (in modern geography, eastern Turkey and north-western Iran), or it might be a reference to Babylon itself (MGG, Magog in Hebrew, can be turned into BBL, Babil, or Babylon).[5]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gog_and_Magog

Then we have this at the same webpage.

As RussiaAccording to one modern theory of dispensationalist Biblical hermeneutics, Gog and Magog represent Russia. Apocalyptic author Louis Bauman claimed that the word "Caucasian" came from the Arabic term "gog-i-hisn" for the mountains there which means "fortress of Gog".[40] However, this identification is unanimously rejected by even the most conservative of credentialed biblical scholars working in accredited institutions of higher learning.[41] It should be noted that the Scythians, who were identified by Josephus and others as being Magog, lived in what is now Russia and Ukraine. [citation needed]

The legend of Gog and Magog, as well as the land of Rosh, also plays a significant part in the New Chronology of Russian pseudohistorian Anatoly Fomenko.

The webpage has more and interesting information. Eze 38 also talks about other lands that will go against Israel and talks about what God Himself will do to those people. Many lands are in for some major troubles for attacking Israel.
