Dispensationalism has been dis-proven by the very words of Christ Jesus so I will stick with Him.
"This generation"
"Behold I come quickly"
The question still remains, "which generation was the Lord referring to". We know He wasn't referring to the generation of the first century, because they had no means of preaching to gospel top all nations.
We only gained the ability to do that when the world wide web became available world wide, in the late 1990's

Kenneth Copeland, Benny Hinn and other Evangelists. reached millions via the www. the Apostles couldn't have dreamed of such a tool to reach the entire world.

There is no question, this is this and you is you.

And you are interpreting the "all the nations" with a modern lens, what did it mean to the people who heard it first and how they spoke.

Hebrew people talk that way all through the Bible. For example:

Cyrus the King of Persia said, "The Lord, the God of Heaven, has given me all the kingdoms of the earth." (Ezra 1:2; 2 Chron. 36:23)
David writes, "All nations surrounded me." (Psalm 118:10)
God "brought" the fear of David on all the nations." (1 Chron. 14:17)
It is written of Hezekiah King of Judah "that he was exalted in the sight of all nations...." (2 Chron. 32:23)
The Chaldeans are said to "march throughout the earth." (Hab. 1:6)
"The people from all the earth came to Egypt to buy grain from Joseph." (Genesis 41:57)
"All the earth was seeking the presence of Solomon." (1 Kings 10:24)
"And all the nations shall serve him and his son, and his grandson until the time of his own land comes." (Jer. 27:7)
Nebuchadnezzar addresses his decree as "the king to all the people, nations, and men of every language that live in all the earth." (Daniel 4:1)

Your reference to Romans 2 just reminded me of what I read earlier. This topic came to mind.
Romans 4

...For we say that faith was reckoned to Abraham for righteousness. 10How was it then reckoned? when he was in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision. 11And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had yet being uncircumcised: that he might be the father of all them that believe, though they be not circumcised; that righteousness might be imputed unto them also: 12And the father of circumcision to them who are not of the circumcision only, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham, which he had being yet uncircumcised. 13For the promise, that he should be the heir of the world, was not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness of faith. 14For if they which are of the law be heirs, faith is made void, and the promise made of none effect:...
16Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all, 17(As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were. it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all, 17(As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed...."
Yes, good to see it in context as Paul continues on with his teaching.

What I have noticed is the OT is typically the first point of reference as though Christ Jesus had nothing to say about it and then the dispensationalists treat scripture as though it is a static document rather than a dynamic unfolding/revealing of the story.

It seems the NT is mostly disregarded and no Romans 11 is not applicable to today, it was written to the Romans in their time about what was happening in their time.

I've withheld judgment on this, but I'm beginning to think Yahoo is dead. There's a point in this video in which his white shirt sleeve grows out of his jacket. So I think it's AI. It wouldn't surprise me if he conveniently dies soon of an illness or accident so they can put this thing to bed without having to admit that Iran killed him.

That video was more believable than the others, but the white sleeve just appearing, wow someone had a good eye.

Notice how the Iranians do not hide when one of their leaders has been killed...makes one wonder.

Kirk was killed by a random freak, it was not planned.
Look into it. You will find it was planned with military precision. Check out Candace Owen's podcasts. If it was a random freak, the FBI wouldn't have had to change its story a million times, the TPUSA staff would have been investigated by the police or Feds (not Candace Owens and other non-police people who loved Charlie Kirk) and wouldn't have needed to keep lying about where they were, what they were doing and what the disputes with Charlie Kirk were about even to this date, and the 30-06 bullet would have blown off Charlie's head and probably taken out a couple of the people standing behind him also (but there was no blood behind him!). Look into it.

Even the guy who recently resigned, Joe Kent (Director of the United States National Counterterrorism), wanted to investigate it given the links to foreign interests, but was prevented by the head of FBI with the Israeli girlfriend.

Charlie Kirk's assassination was international terrorism, and the corrupt FBI prevented a proper investigation.

Anybody that has ever worn a suit jacket knows that the position of your shirt cuffs will change with movement, friction, and gravity. These forces will vary based on cufflink weight (if you opt for cufflinks), the tightness of your cuffs to your arm, the tightness your jacket liner to your shirt and your jacket etc.
