I hope that's enough.

  I don't know if this is a question, a comment, or the start of a poll, but:

Is it just me, or has Delenn gone from what would have been the galaxies 
worst poker player (She probably wouldn't have even approved :-)) to one 
of the greatest?

Of course I am referring to her magnificent bluffing at the end of 
Severed Dreams.  Why do I maintain that her actions/ threats were a bluff?
Two reasons.

1)  Minbari don't kill Minbari (I.e. Earthers with Minbari souls.)  While I 
can see the Warrior caste willing to through this out with the bathwater,
Delenns forces are Religious and Worker caste (and perhaps some warrior...,)
and these are the six votes that stopped the Earth-Minbari war in the first
place.

2)  Relating to above, the Minbari ships must be crewed with minimal 
Warrior caste personnel, if any.  While Minbari Tech is first rate, green 
troops aren't that capable.

Just an opinion on a fantastic episode.

spoiler response....














I was living in Delenn's head when she uttered those lines for the first
time.

She wasn't bluffing.

Delenn *never* bluffs.
