I "think" it was Iran who set the August 22nd deadline originally. Apparently this date has Islamic importance.

"Apparently this date has Islamic importance."

Is there any date or time, or any place in the world that islam doesn't claim is "holy"?

Hmm. I think you are right. August 22nd was Rabeb 7th? on the arabic calender. Which was the day Mohammed took Jeruselem.

I think that's right. Anyone can feel free to correct me.
