"Iran Requests a Ten Day Extension - Why?  Why '10' Days?"


 
Hello John and Doves,
 
President Trump has put a 'pause' on taking out Iran's energy facilities until April 6 - giving them a ten day reprieve.  Why '10' days?  Why April 6?
 
The Islamic Republic requested this.  Which seems odd and suspicious to me.  Since they have done zip negotiating on their nuclear program, ballistic program, etc.  And they don't want to meet with Witkoff or Kushner.
 
Iran Requests 10 Days:
 
"President Donald Trump on Thursday said he was extending an ongoing brief pause in attacking Iran's energy facilities by 10 days, to April 6, at the request of the government of the Islamic Republic."
 
There was an "original five-day pause on U.S. attacks on Iran's power plants and energy infrastructure" which was due to end on March 27, 2026.
 
Iran let 10 oil tanks pass through the Strait of Hormuz - as a "present" to the United States.

The White House continually says there are 'talks going on with Iran and progress is being made', yet Iran denies any kind of negotiating going on with the U.S.
 
I see any "presents" to the U.S. from Iran as trojan horses.  And any extensions of time as delays for 'something nefarious'.
 
Why April 6/Ten Days?:
 
Without the sighting of the new moon, Passover begins on the eve of April 1, 2026, 14 Nisan.  So April 6 is 19 Nisan or Day 4 of Passover Week -  and on April 8, 21 Nisan is Passover Day 7 of the Seven Day Feast of Passover/Unleavened Bread.  This is the calendar dates that Israel is using. So April 6 is about mid-week.
 
According to this Islamic calendar that uses the sighting of the new moon, April 6 is the 18th day of the month of Shawwal, 1447.  (April 6 is the 18th day of the month of Nisan for the Hebrew calendar that also uses the sighted moon.)  The number 10 in Islam means 'completion' and 'reward'.
 
So what else is 'special' about April 6:
 
April 6 is Easter Monday.  The day after Easter.
 
Also on April 6, the U.S. officially entered WWI.
 
Passover Sacrifices:
 
According to this article in Israel365News:  Palestinian officials are saying that "Israeli groups are planning to conduct sacrifices at the site during Passover, which beings April 1 and continues through April 8 this year...The PLO reiterated its claim that the entire compound is an exclusively Islamic place of worship...any Jewish ritual conducted there would constitute a violation of international law."
 
"Israeli authorities have kept the mosque compound closed for several days during the Ramadan period, citing a wartime emergency.  Heavy police forces have been deployed throughout the Old City and around the entrances to the Temple Mount."

And the Western Wall is still closed. No daily prayers.

It's quite possible these sites will be closed through Passover also.
 
I see nothing good coming from this 10 day stay of military action.  IMO, Iran's regime is up to something.  And they have been bragging about 'soon using a new secret weapon'.  (See my other letter today on this.)
 
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!
 
Maranatha!
