After reading the articles above I am confused :confused: 

Did Baghdad give the Damn 17% to Kurdistan or Not????

The way I see it is if they give the 17% the Kurds are more likely to agree to the rest.... Article 140 and the HCL.

Like a "You wash my balls... I'll scratch your ass!!

Kinda like what the USA Gov't does all the time!!!

 

So back to my question,

Did they get the 17% or Not??????

'I'm not sure if it's 17%, but we do know they did get an extra 1 Trillion dinar for salaries.  But seriously, Kurdistan has never gotten their 17% since I've been in this investment.  I'm sure they were happy enough to vote in 14 laws and decisions.  It was a very Good Day!
