You claim that Revelation 12:6 and 12:14 are speaking of 2 different times when the Woman fled into the wilderness, the first being for the 1st 3.5 years of the 7 and the second being for the 2nd 3.5 years of the 7. But for her to flee into the wilderness a 2nd time, it means that she must have returned from the wilderness after she fled into it the 1st time, so that she could flee into it a 2nd time. Do you have a verse that tells us when she made this return from the wilderness, because I still think she only fled once into the wilderness (for the 2nd 3.5 years of the 7), and that Rev 12:6 and 12:14 are referring to the same event.
Julian, in Revelation 12:6, the Jews flee into the wilderness as soon as the Abomination of desolation image is placed in the temple. The two witnesses make it possible because they battle with the beast.
That window of opportunity lasts 75 days until the two witnesses are killed. On a 7 year time line, it can be determined that 1335 days before Jesus returns to end the 7 years -
2520-1335 = day 1185 on the timeline that the image will be placed in the temple.
Day 1 - the confirmation of the covenant
Day 1185 - the AoD image placed in the temple, the Jews begin to flee.
Day 1260 - the two witnesses are killed.
Day 1263.5 - the two witnesses ascend, leaving this world
Then the war in (the second) heaven, Satan cast down to earth. Having a time, times, half time left during which he persecutes the woman... which are the Jews who did not flee in time.
Over that time, times, half time period - the Jews will continue to flee, but it won't be so easy.
In Revelation 12:6, the Jews will flee because the beast will be prime adversary as the two witnesses battle him. The false prophet will have had the people of the world make an image of him, probably out of gold (my guess), something inanimate.
In Revelation 12:12-17, things take a twist. It is Satan who at that time, restricted to earth, who makes war on the remanent of her seed (them who did not flee to the wilderness in time).
Now getting to the inanimate image of the beast. The false prophet conducts a seemingly miracle - which the image comes to life. The miracle will be reinforced because the people of the world themselves make the image - and will know that it has no life in it, in and of itself.
What makes the images come to life and demand worship - is that it will be incarnated by Satan, after he has been cast down to earth. Who in Revelation 13:4, it says the world worships him.
The reason I am very confident this is what will happen is because in Ezekiel 28:17-19, God is going to cast Satan down to earth. Then God has fire come from the midst of him (Satan) and bring him to ashes as the world will be astonished as they see it happen.
We have in Revelation 19, at Jesus's return, the beast and the false prophet cast alive into the lake of fire. And then the armies gathered to fight against Jesus, destroyed.
Satan is bound in chains and cast in the bottomless pit, as a lone angel descends to carry out the task. Maybe Michael. We don't know for sure.
The question is how does Satan suddenly appear to be bound by chains? And what happens to the living image of the beast, that demands everyone worship it?
What I think happens is that the entire scene takes place at the temple mount, surrounded by the armies of the world, with the beast, the false prophet, and the image on the elevated courtyard.
Jesus by the brightness of his coming, melts away the outer facade of the image - exposing to everyone, Satan in his true self, the image brought to ashes. It is then that the beast and false prophet are cast into the lake of fire.
The armies destroyed by Jesus's words, and Satan exposed and there on the temple mount, the lone angel binds him in chains and he is carried away to the bottomless pit.

That was rather long winded - but the point being it is initially the beast in Revelation 12:6 as the adversary making the Jews flee. In Revelation 12:14, it is Satan as the noted adversary - cloaked in the image (a statue) of the beast, causing the Jews to flee, if they can.
