I thought it was weird to hint at a “surprise” that’s 3 or 4 years away .. I don’t think they are capable of planning moves 3 or 4 days in advance, let alone years. not even 3 or 4 minutes...... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floridian Posted February 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2018 Here's a paragraph from the article I posted. Wish I would have highlighted it at the time I posted it: "Abadi expressed his thanks to Kuwait, which “donated all the expenses of the donor conference,” noting that “Iraq is moving in the right direction. Three years ago no one expected to arrive in a united Iraq today.” He added that “the amount of grants amounted to 30 billion dollars, , And our expectations were much less, “adding that” any loans will not accept only within the limits of the Iraqi budget, “and explained that” Kuwait is not our only station, our plan for the reconstruction of Iraq ambitious, “and said:” After three or four years will see Iraq shift Economic surprise the world”. Unfortunately, it doesn't sound like "past tense" to me. Advertisements 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeepguy Posted February 17, 2018 Report Share Posted February 17, 2018 If things had gone correct 3 or 4 years ago , I had been thinking that Iraq was very dang close to doing something big , like giving the HCL money to all , and , give the dinar a good value at the same time But those dashhole boys screwed up the works . So maybe 4 years later it is go time for both again ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The root verb in Arabic is always in the past tense; e.g. كَتَبَ = he wrote.

THE ABOVE WAS WHAT AN IRAQI TRANSLATED. Well alrighty then! Thanks Botswana, I stand corrected. An Iraqi can translate Arabic better than Google. Sorry I doubted you, Blueskyline. This is much better news than I thought. Surprise me, Abadi. Edited February 17, 2018 by Floridian 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what was on my mind . . . Days of Future Past . . . Soooo, here we are again at - prior to the end of the 1st Quarter will do nicely.

Kick off the RI Now and start the building process with a game plan of slowly bringing it back to a tourist Destination. Right now all of Iraq is pretty much a Blank Canvas to do with what they will. Just thinking out loud. Karsten With 12,000 archeological sites there, would be a big draw. It was once the Garden of Eden for crying out loud. Who wouldn’t want to go???? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

new york kevin Posted February 17, 2018 Report Share Posted February 17, 2018 3 to 4 ? years from what year? ... leading to what, making Iraq the economic power house of the world ? Hmm . Could he be saying that the complete reconstruction of Iraq from North, South, East, and West, to commercial and residential will take 3 - 4 years ? Then they will step into being the new economic power house of the Middle East like they were saying they were gonna be years ago ? I hope Abadi is not saying that their currency won't RV/RI aka increase in value for another 3 - 4 years. 2 - 3 months??? That would be ok. I would think if they are going to keep obtaining loans for what ever reason that soon, like now, banks would require a tradeable currency like now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
