My brother and his family live in Jerusalem - he is a minister - and a former Navy SEAL - his office is close to one of Israel 's largest underground military bases.
He called me last night which is very unusual - usually it is email.
He called to tell me that he is sending his family back to the US immediately due to what he is seeing happen within the last week and what he is being told by his military contacts in both the Israel and US military.
He said he is seeing with his own eyes military movements the likes of which he has never seen in his 20+ years in Israel .
What he called a massive redeployment and protective tactics of forces is underway.
Over the last two days he has seen anti-aircraft missile deployments throughout the Jerusalem area including 3 mobile units that he can see from his office windows.
In addition, he has seen very large Israeli armored columns moving fast toward the Sinia where Egypt has now moved in Armor.
There are reports of the top military leaders meeting with Israel 's Sr. Rabbi which is something that has happened preceding every prior military campaign.
His admonition is to watch carefully and pray for Israel and its people.
He is convinced that barring something extraordinary Israel will attack Iran - with or without the US - and very soon.
It is the belief in Israel that Obama does not stand with Israel but with the Arab countries.
He has told me before that Israel will saber rattle from time to time but that this time is very different from what he is seeing and hearing.
He was at the Wailing Wall 2 days ago and there were hundreds of IDF soldiers there. As he was leaving he passed at least 20 military buses full of soldiers in route to the wall.
He has never seen this before either.
Just thought I would pass this along.
My brother is not an alarmist by any means.
When he talks like this it gets my attention for sure and usually I find he knows more than he shares.
There are reports that Israel is asking Obama to come to Israel immediately but they are being answered with silence.
My opinion is that I see the making of the perfect storm.

If your brother has never seen Israeli Defense Force personnel at the Wall and anti-aircraft turrets deployed in residential zones, he hasn't been in Israel that long.
This sort of thing happens all the time.
I'll bet his Jewish neighbors are just heartbroken that Minister Navy Seal is moving. What a mentch.
The money quote:
"There are reports that Israel is asking Obama to come to Israel immediately but they are being answered with silence."
'Thanks again, Obama!'
And, of course, it's utter tripe.
"There are reports that....." = Fox News "Some people say...."
Secondarily if there were a deployment preparing for what is indicated, I don't believe a military contact worth a shit (especially an Israeli Military person) would be giving information regarding said deployment to a civilian and furthermore even IF so as a former SEAL he would probably not proliferate that information further.
More bogus "someone says..." "I heard from someone that..." "I cannot confirm this but..." FEAR mongering from AIPAC... sent out to scare all the Christiany types that if Israel is somehow something something terrible EEEK, then the blessed rapture will never happen. Boo hoo.
Neocon warmonger spin BS and nothing more, by hucking hunks of red meat to racist flag-waving bufoons.
Even if one were to take this missive at face value, the major question begs:
On a purely clinical metric, Israel's wants and interests should be the US' business why?
Of interest, and the source is CBN.

"On a purely clinical metric, Israel's wants and interests should be the US' business why?"
Indeed, a very very good Q, which can be followed up with: why are billions of US tax dollars sent annually to fill Israel's coffers? Israeli citizens enjoy great health benefits, have universal broadband Internet access, and a host of other common goods, which US citizens see less and less of every year on our fair shores.
WHY are WE paying for Israel to have such a high standard of living? Who benefits? Are YOU, personally, benefitting from that? And if not, then why is this type of propaganda being sent out?
Something to ponder.
