What Did The Fathers SAY About Ezekiel Chapters 26-29???????

What Did The Fathers SAY About Ezekiel's chapters 26 verses 1- chapter 29 verse 20, this guy said "God lied" (I don't believe him but he does seem to have some questions,) in the chapters God says "Tyre will be utterly destroyed never to be found again." http://www.tourismlebanon.com/discoverlebanon_tyre.htm

The page clearly states, "Near the market you will see a busy fisherman's port, in Phoenician times referred to as the "Sidonian" port because it faced north towards Sidon" and "The walk to Area Three takes you through a residential part of Tyre called Hay Er-Raml or the Quarter of Sand. You are in fact walking on what once was Alexander the Great's causeway."

So the port is exactly the same place as the ancient port and a residential area is built upon an area that Alexander the Great's army fought on?

So the guy I'm debating then says:

I guess that God's prophecy failed and God actually told lies ..., look at Ezekiel 29:20 when God claims that King Neb was working for God when he destroyed Tyre ... this is after admitting that King Neb never conquered and destroyed Tyre ... isn't this a lie?
So what I wanna know is what do the Father's say do they say that Tyre was destroyed, if yes how come the Bible says it wasn't?? and how come we can see the city Tyre now, scince God said the city will "not be found anymore"
