Delighted to Be Wrong

With only three hours left in the Iranian day, it seems that Iran has so far let the "Day of Joyous News" pass without anything radical delighted to titillate the hearts of Jew-hating
Jihadis everywhere.

I am delighted that nothing more than an offer to sincerely negotiate and the storming of a Rumanian oil rig have been the most major Iranian criminality of the day.

Possibilities:

Iran wanted to create a hoax to gauge western weakness
Iran may have been talking from braggadocio and could not walk the walk
Iran may have gotten a warning from the US that a nuclear test would result in immediate bombing and they backed down.
The really were behind the Airliner Plot and their happy day was ruined
Iran suddenly is very concerned about fostering democracy and stability in the region and confronting the problem of international terrorism.

Perhaps we will never know for sure but a day I dreaded has almost past and we are all still here and that is cause for hope and optimism. If this site educated even open person on Iran, it was more than worth it.

Iran did say they would delay their reply to the world's powers until August 22. They mobilized major military exercises in advance of the date and did respond, meekly, to the UN on the day they promised. While one can speculate that Iran has begun something sinister in secret today; so far it seems quite a let down for their radical audience. If they were planning something for today, the time for doing it is passing quickly; I can live with that.

No new is good news.

Mohammeds ride to heaven in Jerusalem on rajab 27 (this 22nd August) was in the night. But was it the night 21st to 22nd or 22nd to 23rd? What are the odds that their true plan unfolds this night? Wait for 23rd August, and then we can seigh in relief.
