It had it's initial fulfillment with the nation of Israel. These men in Jerusalem broke God's covenant to worship only him and were complacent. They considered themselves safe in their materialistic trust in secular power. They received judgment when Babylon destroyed Jerusalem.
There is also fulfillment for out day. Today there is another warning message that is going out. However, most people also tend to be complacent, not really serving God and paying no attention to his Word or the warning of the nearness of the ‘great tribulation.' Many even claim there is no God...

A lot of the time the old prophets had visions that had dual meanings that were short and long term at the same time. However in Ezekiel Chapter 11 I feel that verse 7 and 8 was only for that time not the last days also. But feel that 17-19 were for the last days.

Some of the things happened at that time - others happened(or will happen) in the future.

well, in verse 16 he speaks of the dispersion of the jewish people. That's already happened, as is self evident.
verse 17 speaks of the ingathering of the jewish people, a common end-times prophecy, which has obviously not happened. (and I might point out, after jesus the jews were further scattered, not gathered in.)
