RVPleaseToday Posted October 16, 2012 Report Share Posted October 16, 2012 It seems like they are saying they want to give banks a say in how currency exchange is done to prevent money laundering, etc and to come up with a way to prevent wide fluctuations in the exchange rate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveinfla Posted October 16, 2012 Report Share Posted October 16, 2012 My theory and this is ONLY an opinion... I think this may be the smoke screen and false news story everyone has been looking for. I dont think Shabs is gone.. I dont think there is going to be a float I think the preverbial button is going to get pushed... Fingers crossed and hoping I am right.... Someone posted in an other thread that some of the stories claimed to be sourced from Rueters however there website isnt carring those stories.(as of the time i post this that could change too) Iraq control the news stories... I am hoping to wake up Wednesday morning a very rich man... DADDY WANTS A NEW DOUBLE WIDE!!!!! 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uncirculd Posted October 16, 2012 Report Share Posted October 16, 2012 (edited) What is going on and what in the world does this all mean?!?!? Can't believe Shab's is really gone.. Maliki has complete control of Iraq and will now take out the kurds with Irans help. And start helping Syria kill their people. That's what it appears if he has taken over the bank. It's all for the money to keep money flowing to Iran. Hey friends, I am hoping this is the madness news coming out before the RV and the truth. I hope anyways. Otherwise, the middle east is in trouble. Edited October 16, 2012 by uncirculd 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zigmeister Posted October 16, 2012 Report Share Posted October 16, 2012 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knesset Knesset? Is Iraq now an adjunct territory of the Israeli state? Let's see. The Rothschilds founded Neo-Israel for the mineral wealth of the Dead Sea. They own the Central Bank of Iraq. Why would this not be? Very interesting insight. I don't know why you got negged for something that was stated in the article. However I do not know why Knesset would be involved and on a committee to investigate CBI. I mean do they hire out? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreaminof dinar Posted October 16, 2012 Report Share Posted October 16, 2012 BAGHDAD – Iraq abruptly removed the longtime governor of the country's central bank Tuesday after he and other bank officials were targeted in an investigation into alleged financial wrongdoing. The governor, Sinan al-Shabibi, is seen as a politically independent economist who has led the bank since shortly after the U.S.-led invasion. He has not been charged with any crime, and his lawyer insists he is innocent. The allegations, drawn up by a special parliamentary committee established to investigate the bank, could give new ammunition to critics of Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki that the Iraqi leader is trying to consolidate control over the country's institutions. Iraq's Cabinet voted Tuesday to temporarily replace al-Shabibi with Abdul-Basit Turki, the head of the Board of Supreme Audit, until the investigation is complete, according to Ali al-Moussawi, a spokesman for the prime minister. Iraq's Integrity Commission, the country's anti-corruption watchdog, is investigating the allegations. "The committee in charge of this ... found shortcomings in the work of the central bank and these findings were sent to the Integrity Commission, which has decided to withdraw power from al-Shabibi," al-Moussawi said. The investigation deals at least in part with alleged irregularities involving the exchange of Iraqi dinars for hard currency, according to al-Moussawi and Haitham al-Jabouri, a lawmaker involved in the probe. About 16 bank employees are targeted in the investigation, al-Jabouri said. He said he expects arrest warrants against some could be issued soon. Before becoming bank governor in 2003, al-Shabibi worked for more than two decades for the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development. One of his lawyers, Waleed Mohammed al-Shabibi, defended the governor's innocence. The lawyer described himself as a relative of the governor. "These charges are politically motivated. Al-Shabibi is honest and professional," said the lawyer. "The government is planning to replace him with another official who takes orders from the government." Al-Moussawi, the prime minister's spokesman, denied the charge, saying there was no political motivation behind the move. The bank governor himself could not immediately be reached for comment. His lawyer said al-Shabibi is out of the country. He declined to say where. Spokespeople for the central bank said they are not authorized to discuss the allegations. Iraq has rapidly increased its oil output following years of war and neglect, and that has translated into a sharp rise in hard currency reserves. The country earlier this year surpassed next-door Iran as OPEC's second-largest oil producer, and its currency reserves recently topped $60 billion. But the bank's efforts to keep the dinar stable through its sales of dollars to local banks have come under pressure, particularly over the past year. Mudhhir Mohammed Salih, the bank's deputy governor, said in January that he believed the civil war in neighboring Syria and international sanctions against Iran had caused a jump in demand for dollars sold by Baghdad. He said opportunistic businessmen were buying up dollars and then reselling them on the black market to customers across the border, sucking greenbacks out of the country and making it harder for the bank to keep Iraq's dinar stable. The bank aims to keep the local currency set at close to 1,200 dinars per dollar. Salih separately confirmed he is among those being investigated, but said he has no further details. ___ Associated Press writers Qassim Abdul-Zahra, Sinan Salaheddin, Sameer N. Yacoub and Bushra Juhi contributed reporting.

MyLadiesDaddy Posted October 16, 2012 Report Share Posted October 16, 2012 They make it sound as though Shabibi has been holding them back from allowing them to make changes to the exchange rate. It looks as though the majority may be just as frustrated as the rest of us and want to start getting things done. "approved the recommendations of the study fluctuation Iraqi dinar exchange rate of coordination, consultation and exchange of information between the Central Bank of Iraq and the Council Ministers on fiscal and monetary policies and in accordance with the Constitution. " I have wondered this very thing myself. We so want to see M as the bad guy, and he may be, but we also know that Shabb's himself has said that he would not allow an rv until the dinar could become a reserve currency. Recent communication from the IMF indicated that something would be coming out of the Middle East," ... in Oct or shortly thereafter." Then while Shabb's is in Tokyo for the IMF meeting we get this. For me I don't think these events are as spontaneous as we are led to believe. Furthermore. even our most trusted people here will tell you that NOTHING in Iraq gets done this fast. That alone should cause great pause for us. One way or another we will soon have some answers to our questions. For me I have bet money on the fact we are about to have an rv. When one looks at all the news of late, and I also mean non Iraqi news, it's an rv or complete destruction of what America tried to accomplish with Iraq. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
