IP Sec, I see this particular scripture as describing a future event, not past events.
It doesnt matter. How a long dead culture interprets/view a metaphor is/may/may not be completely different from how you or I interprets/view it.

Obviously it's about Dubs and apostates going to meetings together and sharing spiritual food that's about as nutritious as straw.

It could refer to different groups in society: the wolf as the leader(s), the lamb as the (innocent) people, finally, during a just reign, living together in harmony without oppression. It may be an utopian interpretation, but it makes more sense than the WT's literal, historically unjustifiable, interpretation.
