In many ways the situation is back to where it was in the minutes before Soleimani’s killing.The question will be -- and this was always the gamble in killing the architect and inspiration of Iran’s overseas aggression -- will the ayatollahs now decide they can’t get away with the attacks as they did, or do they believe their own domestic hype, and that it is for the US to back down on sanctions and pull out of the region.Regardless of what they or the White House believe, the door to de-escalation has opened a crack -- diplomacy might just slip into the room.From CNN's Nic Robertson in Riyadh, Mohammed Tawfeeq in Baghdad and Barbara Starr in WashingtonIraqi Prime Minister Adil Abdul Mahdi said Iran sent Iraq an official verbal message that an attack “had begun or would begin shortly,” on unspecified US military locations -- but other informed sources are contradicting that timeline. It's very important to note that Javad Zarif, Iran's Foreign Minister, posted a tweet that is very, very clear: he has said Iran took and concluded proportionate measures in self-defense under article 51 of the UN Charter.He went on, saying: "We do not seek escalation or war but will defend ourselves against any aggression." First and foremost we wait because the ball is again in the Trump administration's court. Again, we're slightly on a knife edge and we will have to wait what the US President Donald Trump says about this -- although his initial tweet implies that this is the kind of response that they expected. Create the impression of a fearsome strike for domestic consumption without actually risking escalation.So far, it’s working -- soon after the ballistic missiles slammed into the base, President Trump tweeted “all is well,” “so far, so good.”There is one message for the international community and another for the Iranians who flocked to the streets for Qasem Soleimani’s funeral.Iran’s Foreign Minister, Javad Zarif, called the strike “proportional,” while the theocracy’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, told cheering crowds in Tehran it was a “crushing” blow.Other Iranian officials speaking for international consumption say there is no need for further strikes unless the US escalates the situation. Meanwhile, some Iranian news outlets are ramping up propaganda, claiming the killing of many US troops when every reliable source says no US troops were killed.A full US battle damage assessment has begun, and Trump is expected to speak later Wednesday, but every indication so far points toward a military off-ramp moment.How diplomacy picks up is hard to say. Press TV is a 24-hour English language news organization of the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB). Whether the United States will now decide that enough is enough for this moment and whether there's some other diplomatic, political or any kind of engagement going forward.
