I don't see that myself. I think the wine is a metaphor for the sin that mystery babylon makes everyone drunk with. Sin, greed, passion. What country exports sin and greed like no other? Unfortunately we have to conclude it's the USA. I think as Americans it's hard to see it. Everyone wants what we have and wants to be us. I think the USA is mystery babylon, sin incorporated. Not a popular position to take! People would say where is the USA in prophecy? We're there but we're not the good guys we are used to seeing ourselves as.

Revelation 14:8
And another angel, a second one, followed, saying, " Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great, she who has made all the nations drink of the wine of the passion of her immorality."

Revelation 17:2
with whom the kings of the earth committed acts of immorality, and those who dwell on the earth were made drunk with the wine of her immorality."

Revelation 18:3
"For all the nations have drunk of the wine of the passion of her immorality, and the kings of the earth have committed acts of immorality with her, and the merchants of the earth have become rich by the wealth of her sensuality."
