Israel was on Friday bracing for an attack launched by Iran in the coming 24 to 48 hours according to a report in the Wall Street Journal quoting a source in the know. 

Another source claiming to be briefed by Iranian officials told the WSJ that a final decision has yet to be made. U.S. sources said the Iranian strike would be on Israel and not one of its assets abroad.
