This war content is for Subscribers only - Israel in mortal danger --
I am on vacation and while I am enjoyinig rest and relaxation I haven't has since at least the year 2009, my Intel Comms Circuits are blaring all sorts of actual alarms.
Against my better judgment, I decided to read what is screeching all over the Intel Circuits. Here it is:
Both U.S. and Israeli Officials state that they have Observed a Significant Increase in Preparations by Iranian Missile and Drone Units in the West of the Country over the last 24 Hours. With the Preparations seen, similar to what was Observed right before Iran’s Large-Scale Attack in April against Israel.
An Israeli official, citing conversations with security officials, said Monday that Israel’s latest assessment was that Iran was planning another direct attack and that it could come imminently.
Iran takings significant steps to prep for launching missiles & drones at Israel, verified by Satellite imagery.
IDF is on heightened alert after detecting Iranian & Hezbollah preparations to attack. US mobilization of military assets to region larger than American deployment for Iranian attack in April.
Tehran’s allies in Iraq and Syria are planning to attack U.S. bases in those countries as Iran launches its expected attack on Israel, according to an Iraqi official with close ties to Iranian-backed forces in the region.
Joint Statement: US and European Allies Express Support for Defending Israel in the Face of Iranian Attack.
US **publicly** estimates that the Iranian response is expected "to be significant." Privately, those same officials expressed ‘SHOCK” BORDERING ON “PANIC” AT THE LEVEL OF MISSILES BEING MOVED.
A senior Israeli official told me: "The Iranians openly signal (on the ground) their determination to carry out a significant attack in addition to their public statements that the attack will exceed the one they carried out in April. Iranian public statements do not reflect any retreat"
U.S. Secretary of Defense, Lloyd Austin has ordered the USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN-72) and Carrier Strike Group 3, which just Departed yesterday from Guam, to Expedite their Deployment to the Middle East; while the USS Georgia (SSGN-729), an Ohio-Class Guided-Missile Submarine armed with over 150 Tomahawk Land-Attack Cruise Missiles, been directed to Immediately Reposition from her current Location in the Mediterranean, to the U.S. Central Command’s Area-of-Operations.
Israeli Minister of Defense Yoav Gallant spoke earlier with U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin regarding preparations that have begun to be Observed in Western Iran, suggesting a Large-Scale Attack against Israel is now Imminent; with Officials stating that they are expecting the Attack be Larger than what was seen in April, utilizing both Missiles and Drone to Strike at Military Installations across Central Israel.
Tisha B'Av, which is the 9th day in the month of Av, begins on Monday evening. It is considered the saddest day in the Jewish calendar, coinciding with numerous calamities in Jewish history.
Tisha B’Av means the 9th day of the Jewish month of Av, and on this day some 2000 years ago, the temple in Jerusalem was destroyed by the Romans.
Remarkably, it happened on exactly the same date in the Jewish calendar as Solomon’s temple was destroyed by the Babylonians some 650 years before.
The ground was levelled, sown with salt, and rendered desolate.
The Jewish people no longer had access to the sacrificial system of atonement and encountering God that once was theirs. They were utterly banished from holy place where God had chosen to dwell and meet them, and from the city of Jerusalem itself.
The holy menorah and articles of the temple were hauled off to Rome, and many Jews were slaughtered.
Tisha B’Av is a solemn time of mourning among the Jewish people to this day. But what is weird is that the first temple was also destroyed on the 9th day of Av, and many other tragedies happened to the Jewish people on the same date.
Gold & Oil are saying that the attack begins tonight

Looking at ADS-B Exchange: Western Iranian airspace seems to have become empty.
UKRAINE-RUSSIA
In a televised speech to the nation, Russian President Vladimir Putin declared today "there will be no more peace negotiations with Ukraine" after they bombed the Zaporozhye Nuclear Power plant (part of which is still burning today) and hit civilians in the Kursk Region of internal Russia.
I am not going to offer Analysis of any of this: you're seeing what I'm seeing. Looks like everyone believes the Iran-Israel thing goes hot within 6 hours.
