The reason I think it is America is that
"The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth" There is only one place That describes a whore sitting in water. I understand how you could think it's where the queen site but then the next wouldn't really make sense.
"are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues" America is the only melting pot nation on earth where there are a great many nationals and languages.
To the Jews, "The waters" meant the gentile world and people surrounding the Mediterranean. It was a common idiom. I think this explains your second quote as well.
I think you mean Israelites.
I don't adhere to the new age idea of Judaism and I really don't care if it confuses others. Jews are descendants of Judah, and Jesus was a Jew. I am not talking about fake Jews of today or fake Jews of back then. I mean Jew by way of bloodline, not a religion and not kazaars.
"New age"? Judaism is actually a newer religion than Christianity is, but that's certainly an interesting statement [you made]. In regards to the name "Jew", it has been intermingled with the words 'Israelite', 'Judahite', 'Judean', 'pharisee', and 'Edomite' for over 400 years. It's use in the Bible is ambiguous and unfortunately needs to be deciphered for every verse that it is used. Some times it refers to the Roman province of Judea, other times it refers more accurately to Edomites. Other times it references 'Israelites".
I see, so do you believe that we should not interpret revelations as if they were written for us (the people of today), for the people near the end times to read and understand? but instead, written for the ancient Jews to understand well before anything like this would pass?
Taking into context how things were written at the time is important. You can think of how language evolves and so does the interpretation. An example today would be leftists using the phrase “well regulated” pertaining to modern day gov’t regulation when it was commonly known at that time as “in good standing order”.
My interpretation is that Revelation relates to something that is a cyclical event facilitated by the elites and god multiple times.
The Bible is the story of man and the cycle we go through. This world will end but the apocalypse has had many dry runs.
I see
It is not Revelations, it's Revelation. It's the book written by the last surviving apostle John. Jesus revealed Himself to John as the righteous warrior that He is, and not as the Lamb He was when He walked the earth.
It's like Meijer's or Targets.
I really wish that those who wish to comment here about the Book of Revelation would actually understand that it is singular, and try and have a modicum of understanding of what is involved.
I believe it was written for all people, including us. But, I believe it is a very complex document that requires serious study to get an accurate understanding. This video is an hour long, and it's just one of 24 in a series on Revelation by Chuck Missler but, I think you will find that it's one of the best and most detailed explanations of who "the Whore" is that you can find anywhere:

Dave Hunt's A Woman Rides The Beast should be read by any student of Revelation.
Thanks!
The Bible should be used to interpret the symbols. There's a reason Jesus emphasized the Book of Daniel to the Apostles.
to be fair, the writers thought the end time was happening in a few years, and for some, it did.
I think Babylon the great is America. I think the whore might be Israel, and the beast she rides on might either be the EU or the UN. America is the number one economy, makes sense because many have gotten rich of her. The whore is Israel because Israel makes alliances with anyone and everyone out of self interest. They sell state secrets to enemies of their Allies for self preservation. Sooner or later the beast they ride on will devour them, when all the nations turn against them. The pope and the Roman Catholic Church I think serves the position of anti christ and the beast system. One world religion, sooner or later the church will deny Christ, as shocking as that sounds.
I think Babylon the great is the Ancient Babylonian Cult of Death.
It's not a country.
It's a system.
It poisons everyone.
In the US, it's the DNC, the Deep State, all the globalists.
The remnant in Christ will STAND and firght though
Europe is a place of many languages and nations.
But the guy above is correct, the whore is the Vatican.
It's the aliens....
Also the ten horns in her crown
"ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings" Does her crown represent 10 kings?
I believe so
