The 70th 'week', remains unfulfilled. None of the many Prophesies from Rev 6:12 to the end have happened yet. Or Daniel 9:27.

This is a bold, yet untrue claim on your part. Rev 16:12-16 has been partly fulfilled, while Rev 16:17-21 has been fulfilled during the 20th century with the historical record over the 20th Century confirming this fact.

Revelation 16:12-16 is not what carnal theologians believe. It is an allegorical picture. "The kings of the east" are the "lost tribes of Israel":

Those are the ten tribes, which were carried away prisoners out of their own land in the time of Osea the king, whom Salmanasar the king of Assyria led away captive, and he carried them over the waters, and so came they into another land.
But they took this counsel among themselves, that they would leave the multitude of the heathen, and go forth into a further country, where never mankind dwelt,
That they might there keep their statutes, which they never kept in their own land.
And they entered into Euphrates by the narrow places of the river.
For the most High then shewed signs for them, and held still the flood, till they were passed over.
For through that country there was a great way to go, namely, of a year and a half: and the same region is called Arsareth.
Then dwelt they there until the latter time; and now when they shall begin to come,
The Highest shall stay the springs of the stream again, that they may go through: therefore sawest thou the multitude with peace.

(2 Esdras 13:40-47)

"The kings of the earth" are the leaders of the Christian denominations. "Armageddon" is the spiritual battle of Christians for their own Prosperity, the battle for their mammon, which they all serve.

Armageddon. "Ar" (הַר) - mountain, "gad" (גַד) - happiness, "megad" (מֶגָד) - a gift from heaven, good, "-on" (וֹן) - a diminutive suffix, with disdain. "Mountain of prosperity", "Mountain of freebies".

In real military battles, soldiers are threatened with death. Participants in Armageddon are threatened with shame:

Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things. (Philippians 3:19)

The Laodicean church is an image of worldly Christians. "Laos" - "people", "dikos" - custom". These are Christians, whose entire Christianity consists of following Christian customs. It is precisely such Christians who are primarily threatened with being drawn into the race for Prosperity in this world, they are threatened by Armageddon.

I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see. (Revelation 3:18)

Revelation 16 will be carried out after the construction of the Third Temple and the entrance of the saints into the eastern gate. The vials of wrath are an allegorical picture of the defeat of all carnal Christians in denominations. A particularly strong blow against these servants of mammon will be the appearance of the city of Yahweh Shammah, at the 7th vial of wrath. In this city there will be no power of money, the resurrected tribes of Israel will work there voluntarily, without receiving any tithes from outside.

"The great river Euphrates" is an image of Judaism, which will dry up soon after the building of the Third Temple and the gathering there of the saints from the nations. When Judaism stops opposing Jesus Christ and accepts the messengers of Christ, then the way will be opened for the return to Israel of the "kings from the rising of the sun." This will be the "rapture of the Church," the taking of the 5 wise virgins to the Bridegroom for the wedding feast in Israel.

I want to remind all interpreters of the Scriptures that "east" in Hebrew also means "antiquity".

Therefore, when we read

And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea,
Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads.

(Revelation 7:2,3)

- this means that the seal of the Holy Spirit was placed on all the meetings of the Church from antiquity, from Pentecost in 32 AD, and maybe even earlier, because the prophet Ezekiel saw how a sign, a cross (the letter "tav" in the form of a cross, in pre-Babylonian inscription) was placed on the foreheads of the grieving Jews in Jerusalem.

And in Revelation 16:12 "kings from the rising sun" (That's exactly how it's written there, not like in bad English translations) means "kings from antiquity", from the ancient expectations of the appearance of the King-Messiah. And in Revelation 7:2 it is also written "angel ascending from the rising sun", I am horrified by the English translations of Revelation. You do not understand anything when you read such translations!

Yes, today, ever since Pentecost, all born again Christians have the seal of God's ownership, by receiving the permanency of God's FREE Gift of His Eternal Holy Spirit.

However, that would NOT be the case for Israel, during the time of the Age of Indignation, under the OC.
No one then could ever HAVE the PERMANENT indwelling of the Holy Spirit UNTIL the shedding of Christ's blood.
The best that God could do for them, was to have their names written in "a book of Remembrance". Malachi 3:16.

In the day of Jesus' mortal death on the cross, many of those whom God remembered, were resurrected out of their graves. All of them ARE the OC. sealed saints, the figurative 144,000 of Israel.
God did NOT forget them whom He had remembered. Mat. 27:50-54

Even the repentant thief on the cross understood that, when he said: "Remember me when you come into your kingdom", of which Jesus' reply guaranteed it for him.

So then, now that God has long ago safely secured and redeemed the figurative 144, 000 saints of Israel into Heavenly Jerusalem above, AFTER the shedding of Christ's blood, there is now after Pentecost, "the Great Mulitude" of NT. born again Christians, being both Jews and Gentiles. All of such are still waiting for THEIR redemption, "looking for" the return of Jesus from heaven, in the Glory of His Immortality, "in flaming fire".
2 Thes. 1:7-10

As for Rev. 7:2-3, I would remind all to focus on when verse 3 began to take place, which is a sign of God's Age of Grace, through faith in Jesus, coming to an END, ever since the 1800's.
"Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants
[born again NT. saints] of our God in their foreheads."

What and when was Dynamite discovered, and then following, the many weapons of mass destruction?

Edit: by the way, if you have any memory of your "school years", I am sure you can recall the many, many inventions and discoveries that suddenly emerged into society, during the 1800's. Many are from the subtil benevolence of satan's evil genius, who is "the prince OF the power of the AIR".
Eph. 2:2
