Regardless of whether they are meek or not, God is gathering them back to their ancestral homelands.
John writes in Revelation 12:
And there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and the angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein. But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months.
During the battle of Armageddon, there will be a temple (as stated here). Thus, it will have to be rebuilt. Ezekiel gives them the directions.
And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth. These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth. And if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed. These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will. And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them.
During the battle, two prophets will be raised up to the Jewish nation. They will minister for three and a half years and then be killed.
And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.
Although God will do this for the Jews, John makes it clear that Jerusalem will be classed as a wicked city at the time the battle will take place.
And after three days and an half the spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them. And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them.
After three and a half days, the two prophets will be resurrected and ascend to heaven. And Gog, the great Beast or Antichrist, will see them.
