I've heard that interpretation before. One of the strongest arguments supporting it is the idea of "unwalled villages." If there is one country right now in the middle east that ISN'T an unwalled village it's Israel, which is why I initially suspected it takes place after the millennium.
The reason I don't think it's America is two reasons:
Something absolutely unprecedented would have to happen to disarm the US and make them that vulnerable to give any country the gonads to invade. Even if something like an economic collapse happens (which is not just possible but probable), US still has the ultimate deterrent against this action -- nukes.
Secondly, I find it extremely hard to believe that God would intervene in such a dramatic fashion to save this country after the list of evil and heinous things its done. Abortion, murder, crime, drugs, corruption, secularism... the list goes on. And America has been doing this for decades and decades unabated.
