calli: Because it gets only about 50,000 Ghits but essentially no hits at all in the usu online dictionaries, I would have called "remobilize" a neologism
Until I checked with the Google News timeline, where I found it going back to 1914

So I tentatively conclude there's nothing special about it since you can add "re" to almost any verb
But here's something of interest
