Ultimately the Minbari had no interest in humanity or anything we had, except to wipe us out after Dukat died. The only thing I can think of which may have got them to consider us as an honourable people and therefore a race worth dealing with would be the Earth President offering herself as a sacrifice to the Minbari. I'd imagine they would have appreciated the symmetry of one leaders death for another.Please do me a huge favour and help me be with the love of my life.

that's a good answer, it might have, but remember it had become a holy war, it took on a life of its own, even that might not have stopped them, it was only the intervention of the vorlons that stopped it, and even it didn't stop all of them, remember the tragatti, in stead of surrendering the captian killed himself and his second took the ship and headed for the rim, soo... hum, who knows.

I love speculating about this stuff, though it has no real answer unless JMS decides to give it an answer.

I think the Vorlons knew about Sinclair because him as Valen would have told them about the future. I am pretty sure the Vorlons would have interrogated him prior to accepting him as Valen.
Which means the Vorlons would have known about the war and knew they would have to wait.
There is a interesting Crossover Fanfic named A Thin Vineer on Fanfiction that addresses this.Hi There!

Ok, one necro incoming, because it is really simple:
Lennan (Ranger 1 at the time of the Earth-Minbari-War!) just needs to survive (so either Londo's attack ship misses its shots or they never attack in the first place!) and you have a basis for peace-talks (Lennan and Delen have the influence to get talks going, especially if Delen then takes the position of leader of the Grey Council (which she might do, if she sees no other way for peace!))
ps: I've read that story ("A thin Veenir") and it wasn't bad
