From Dinar Land : The long waited air campaign against ISIL headquarters in Syria finally materialized  with the backing of 5 regional countries which mainly are Sunnis.  Vietnam1969 said ISIL was expecting the strike but not to the extent of severity, there was still an element of surprise.  Pentagon said airstrikes were precise in order to avoid civilian casualties.  The airstrikes will continue but the intensity will be less as ISIL expected to use civilians as human shields and try to hide their military hardware.  The strikes will have resounding impact  on ISIL and their supporters.  The strikes were welcome by Iraqi security forces and Kurdistan peshmerga, boosting their morale to continue to fight ISIL.  US has conducted 200 airstrikes in Iraq but not defeating ISIL yet. 

 

Extrememarine59 said US airstrikes in Syria killed estimated tens and maybe hundreds of terrorists. Airstrikes were conducted on a group known as Khorasan, an al qaeda affiliate who publicly threatened to kill Americans and other Westerners.

Iraqi air forces conducted aistrikes against ISIL killing four  and injuring at least ten in area 25 km southwest of Kirkuk.  Anti terrorism unit bombed ISIL positions in northern Babel province killing five queen bees and injuring scores of worker bees. Men armed with automatic weapons went on a shooting spree in Eastern Baghdad, three civilians were killed in the random shooting.  A car bomb exploded in eastern Baghdad killing at least two and injuring eight civilians.  Intelligence source said the bomb was dignated remotely.  PM Abadi as the Supreme Commander of Armed Forces ordered two generals to go on retirement as a move meant to diversify the armed forces leadership according to military analysis.

 

“Government Reform” is a phrase being heard from the main street to government officials and representatives.  Corruption is deeply engraved and bribery is a way of life  in every level of society from top to bottom which are not unusual in Middle East or emerging economies but corruption carries its dangerous side effects such as awarding a project to the wrong people or companies that may hurt the development of infrastructure.  In democracy when people are caught in corruption, they are brought to justice in a spectacular and transparent way. That is why it’s gaining momentum in Iraqi government.  A politician who remains anonymous said it may take years to make a dent but you have to start somewhere.

 

The building of infrastructure in Iraq is going regardless of security issue according to its five year plan for 2013-2017.  Some plans will be revised in according to the situation currently in the areas.  Funding is and will always be available for housing projects as it is the cornerstone of economy in the coming stages and provides employment to hundreds of thousands of Iraqis on a continuous basis.

 

In spite of the security situation Iraq is receiving an increase inquiry of companies interested in investing in Iraq.  International banks are also encouraged to establish branches in Iraq as they will attract more investors. 

 

Gymrat76541 hopes they approve 2014 budget very soon, as the acting Minister of Treasury Mohammed al-Sudani said that approving spending for the last three months of 2014 will help in preparing 2015 budget.  It will also help in allocating funds for the security forces.  He expects to get positive responses from the parliament.

 

From Rumor Land : Millionday says CBI has put in place that Iraq has to use the national currency which is dinar.  Poppy3 doubts Iraq will hold up now since they have been voting on their holidays for two months.  Pepperoni on pizza says Iraq said they will vote before the holiday.  Exogen sasks if you really think UNSC would allow global airstrikes to be coordinated out of Iraq, if there was no defense minister, no interior minister, no completed GOI, and the country still has a currency valued at 1/8 of a penny to now pay the new global war bills and debts?  TNT Tony says the rv is going to happen and we are in good position and he expects it before the 1^st.

As far as the air strikes in Syria goes, well I think we just poked a stick into a hornet's nest. Obama has waited to long to get started on this and IMO this will come back and bite us in the azz.  The file was great this week and you have had your hands full with keeping up with all that has happened.     Keep up the good work Nadita.

It's a catch 22 ... five Arab countries - majority is Sunni agreed to coalition is big and now Turkey said they would open for military and logistics.. Just waiting for the first western country to say yes.  I think the world see ISIS as a threat and also the barbarism is a bit much for anyone with a heart to tolerate. Iran is saying if ISIS comes closer to their border they will go and kick their behind. In a way, ISIS will be pushed from all sides.  Saudi is not going to let ISIS tears down Mecca and Medina, neither any Arab countries because it's their holy cities and Kabah is the symbol of Islam. If anything happens to it, where will the pilgrims go once a year? 

[captl1]

Thanks Nadita for another master spin. As far as the air strikes go we need to hit serious targets unannounced. These of late are like throwing a deck chair off the Titanic. Just my opinion.

I agree but I think ISIL underestimated the airstrikes.  They didn't think there will be 5 Arab countries joining the airstrikes and from what it sounded like we did quite a damage to their camps and casualties too.  Until we get the briefing in a few days.. we don't know

If I tell you I am going to bomb your headquarters any person with a smidgen of a brain would vacate the premises. Doesn't matter which country drops the bomb. The political posturing has got to stop.

Yeah, I hear you on this one.  We only can hope the mission is not wasted and we hit what we supposed to hit.. will we know the whole truth..? prolly not.

[captl1]

Political truths= oxymoron! And thanks again for all your hard work.

Did we see anyone come out of the building or anyone scattering in the courtyard..no. The building was empty.

Nadita, This is key! Thank you so much!!!

[chess]

Nadita.....thanks for ALL the many news items you co-ordinated......didn't know that much stuff was going on!

 

 

Glad that our Prez finally did the right thing. He's NOT an attacking type of leader, at heart. I'm sure he is fearful

of having to give back his Nobel Peace Prize!!  HOPE all the good warriors stay safe!.......

You shed a light  I never thought of that.. because one is a leader is not necessarily a warrior.  I think he is fed up with being ridiculed, finally he said "scramble you"

^{I just love the way almost all Arab countries say they are against ISIS but only a few actually do anything! Talk is cheap!}

^{I understand countries like Kuwait do not have the armed forces to assist, but their king as tons of $$$$$$$ so financing the war effort would mean alot! Why does America have to go further in debt when we are fighting what is primarily their war? Money is like sand in the Middle East, there is plenty of it!!!!!!}

^{I also understand why Israel has to stay out of this conflict because they are hated by all Arab countries!}

We don't know who are helping with money... as it will not be advertised.  Kuwait prolly saying what goes around, comes around

[littlesam]

Just got home... whew busy day in the arab countries, I just pray that my family gets home safe and sound during all this mess over there. Thanks for the spin Nadita..

[UNEEK]

Thanks Nadita -- You do a great job

 

[RodandStaff]

Great Job Nadita...another informative spin...with lots riding on the line for many folks, and yes...prayer can change things!

[chess]

....and, in this situation:  "Enemy of my enemy......................" will most likely still end up being my enemy!

[Rayzur]

Thanks for the down low Nadita... There is so much going on, its like trying to swat mosquitoes in a swarm....

The current engagememt is so exquisitely convoluted it barely made sense, though I think when you introduce the extremist Khorasan group and their threat to the US, it puts things in perspective... I'm pretty sure more will be coming out in the next day or so... But the short of it is.... We were following them, they were targeting the US and Europe, they went dark and there was enough of a viable concern that we had to go after where we thought they might be.... We did get a Post Office in Syria today... it was one of those wry dark humor moments... As it turns out, its likely there were waskly wabbits in there as well...   ....

[genx4me]

Thanks Nadita for your hard work.
