If you look at the map, Turkey is directly north of Jerusalem. It can't be from Europe because Europe wasn't discovered during Noah's or Japheth's generation. There's more bible scriptures indicating the beast comes out of Turkey than Europe.
M24, I think where we are having a disconnect in understanding each other is that I don't see the little horn as Gog or any of Gog's allies.
I don't disagree with your assessment that Gog/Magog is not Europe.
The little horn, however, will be from Europe. He will become the leader of Europe.
Then, the little horn after becoming leader of Europe for a while, probably a short time, the Gog/Magog nations - as you identified them, which are now basically the muslim countries. will be on the verge of imminent invasion of Israel.
The little horn, under the pretense of keeping peace in the region, and to defend Israel, will mass his army in Greece, Daniel 8:9, northwest of Israel.
Greece is one of the four break-up kingdoms, of Alexander's greek empire, and the eastern most frontier of the EU. From Greece, he will move his strong army toward Israel... and end up in Israel and the Middle east... following God's supernatural destruction of Gog's army.
The Jews will view the little horn's actions to be that of their long awaited messiah. The little horn person thus will have to be a Jew. In Daniel 8, we read that the little horn has a tremendous ego. So he fancies himself as the Jew's messiah as well, and is the prince who shall come in Daniel 9:26b - 9:27.
He will oversee the reading of the law to the nation of Israel from the temple mount -which is a cyclic requirement - in Deuteronomy 31:9-13 - 7years. Thus confirming the (Mt. Sinai) covenant for 7 years, as the Jews embrace him as their messiah. The false prophet (most likely) will anoint him as the King of Israel, officially making him the "Antichrist".
So the near term sequence of events before us is....
1. The EU government evolves to the ten leader final form.
2. The little horn becomes leader of the EU.
3. Gog/Magog develops.
4. As the attach seems imminent, the little horn rises to the occasion to thwart the attack.
5. The attack takes place and God destroy's Gog's armies.
6. The little horn and his EU armies arrive in Israel and Middle east, the prince who shall come
7. The little horn is embraced by the Jews as their long awaited messiah, and he is anointed the King of Israel.
8. He oversees the reading of the law (Deuteronomy 31:9-31) to the nation of Israel, and the 7 years begin.
