This is exactly what happened to the survivors of the great tribulation. They were to be enslaved and dispersed among the nations where they have been for the last 1900+ years. This is not scheduled to happen again at or after the parousia.
What/when is the so-called 'parousia'?
Who are enslaved currently among the nations that can't return back to Isreal now if they wanted to?
You are saying Luke 21:24 happen already and is not said to happen again...what about this...Rev 11:2;13:5,7,10?
Has Joel ever been fulfilled? Joel 2:17;3:1,2

It's funny to see a down vote based on showing what the Bible actually says.
I don't care if you believe the Bible or not. Chances are it is all BS, but regardless, it says what it says and states of those coming out of the GT, which is the time during the MOTB period. Obviously that time has not come yet so that shows the GT is still future.
[9 After this I saw, and look! a great crowd, which no man was able to number, out of all nations and tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, dressed in white robes; and there were palm branches in their hands...13 In response one of the elders said to me: “These who are dressed in the white robes, who are they and where did they come from?” 14 So right away I said to him: “My lord, you are the one who knows.” And he said to me: “These are the ones who come out of the great tribulation, and they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.]

To make it a dual prophecy, is to make Jesus speaking simultaneously, literally to His generation of believers and figuratively to ours. And we are left trying to figure out what praying our flight will not be in winter or on a Sabbath means. And what Jerusalem and Judea means and what the mountains mean and what not going home to pick up your jacket when roofing means...etc.
It does have a future application according to the Bible. But the parts that you are referring to do not apply.
[ 21 for then there will be great tribulation such as has not occurred since the world’s beginning until now, no, nor will occur again.]

13 For example, when the COVID-19 pandemic struck, “those . . . taking the lead” gave needed direction.
From what I saw/heard is that everything the WTS/GB said during that time is to do all the CDC and WHO said to do. Stay home, wear mask, take vax shot, etc.
If that is the case, then those who were taking the lead at that time were 'worldly government agencies'. That's who was directing JWs. So I guess the same is to be expected during the GT... listen and obey the 'worldly government agencies'.

I think originally it was she wants to talk to her, but the angels and her husband are saying don't because she is disfellowshipped.
Now it is supposed to be the angels are directing her to speak to her.

Just because Jehovah had to prove His Right To Rule? I don't think so!
by liam inwe get old because jehovah had to prove to all the angels that his way of ruling was the best?
that's the sorriest argument the watchtower has come up with.

Announcement of Elijah's Coming
by ElijahisMe init is with profound humility and reverence that i share a message of great significance.
in the year 2001, my son and i witnessed the birth of the kingdom of god, experiencing spiritual battles that affirm our divine calling.
as prophesied in the scriptures, my son is the elijah to come, the forerunner to jesus' second coming.. living in the wilderness by his own choosing, my son embodies the spirit and mission of elijah, preparing the way for the lord.

Where did this phrase 'In the truth' come from?
[6 Jesus said to him: “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.]
[ 3 For I rejoiced very much when brothers came and bore witness about the truth you hold, as you go on walking in the truth. 4 No greater joy do I have than this: that I should hear that my children go on walking in the truth.]
[ 9 But the lawless one’s presence is by the operation of Satan with every powerful work and lying signs and wonders 10 and every unrighteous deception for those who are perishing, as a retribution because they did not accept the love of the truth in order that they might be saved. 11 That is why God lets a deceptive influence mislead them so that they may come to believe the lie, 12 in order that they all may be judged because they did not believe the truth but took pleasure in unrighteousness.]
