Butifldrm Posted July 18, 2018 Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 2018/07/18 15:14 A heavy security spread around the Central Bank after the sounding of the warning sirens BAGHDAD / MESSALA: Social networking sites have been reported as a result of a heavy security deployment around the Central Bank of Iraq. And monitored the "obelisk" published by activists on Facebook: "the launch of warning sirens in the Central Bank of Iraq, and the spread of security forces, without knowing the details." Which caused the spread of security forces as pictured: Image wont post please hit link. http://almasalah.com/ar/news/144344/بالصورة-انتشار-امني-مكثف-حول-البنك-المركزي-بعد-انطلاق-صافرات-الانذار 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floridian Posted July 18, 2018 Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 I have to laugh! Comments range from celebration, Saudi approval, protecting the area, and only a test. My first thought was - OMG! Somebody robbed the CBI. I go straight to panic. 😂 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Bean Posted July 18, 2018 Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 Maliki and his goons, trying the ol' Shabibi-Alak two-step. I remember when he lit up the CBI before, to destroy the evidence Shabs had on him ransacking the treasury. Won't somebody flatten that cockroach. 🐜 🐜 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synopsis Posted July 18, 2018 Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 I dunno, folks. Maybe they are getting ready for the mad rush when the lower denominations are announced???!!! Here's Hopin'!!!

Go Moola Nova (YEAH AND YEE HAW, BABY, READY WHEN YOU ARE BROTHER (OR SISTER) - LET 'ER BUCK!!!)!!! How do you think they will do this? Are you thinking, for instance, the 25 dinar and 25,000 dinar will be equal (worth the same)? And are you thinking that the exchange rate will be 1 to 1, and our 25,000 will be worth $25,000, while in Iraq the 25,000 is worth 25? This doesn't seem fair to the Iraqis that have 25,000 notes in the mattress. I am just not understanding how they can issue the lower denominations without dropping the 3 zeros first. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, OK, I'll be honest. I was just trying to introduce a little comedic relief here, Floridian, AND The Best Of The Rest Of Your Week To You!!! I do think it odd that they did announce the, "training practices carried out by the Department of Civil Defense in coordination with the security services And lasts for two days". For what reason is the "Civil Defense" involved with all this and needs to practice for two days? I have visions of bank runs and the the "Civil Defense" will be used to quell any unrest the Bicraqi Iraqis are so prone to do. I do think there will be a need for various forms of security once the lower denominations are announced before the people see this as a really, really good thing and the "Civil Defense" is there to prevent the holders of large denominations from being rushed, mugged, and looted. So, some connect-the-dots on my part. Just my conjecture, thoughts, opinion, and for whatever THAT is worth!!! CAVEAT EMPTOR, Reader!!! In The Mean Time.......................................

Butifldrm Posted July 18, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 I don't know about ya'll, but out of the 9 years I've been studying reading and posting the news, this is the first time I've ever read about such a drill....and why would it last two days? I think there is more to the story and more than likely we may never findout. Maybe the CBI is just a little paranoid after the protests and the destruction of government and private property. 4 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueskyline Posted July 19, 2018 Report Share Posted July 19, 2018 We can only guess . And I have several 😃! With the president of Iraq announcing a decree to end parliaments current session . Abadi's launching of reforms in Basara. 3.5 trillion in dinar / or the release of Petrodollars. The CBI announcing their success. It puts tremendous pressure on Iran, Maliki and others to act in great desperation . One of those action might be something directed at the CBI. Another Guess ? Maybe they are finally receiving or shipping the new notes which would require the additional security . Whatever their reason . Im glad to see them do these drills at this time .😃 2 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SocalDinar Posted July 20, 2018 Report Share Posted July 20, 2018 Most of Iraqs gold is held at the Federal Reserve and the Bank of England. Im sure The Central is a bit nervous regarding the protests. They are escalating to a point where looting and violence can be expected. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GregHi Posted July 20, 2018 Report Share Posted July 20, 2018 I think Okie finally ran out of fuel and crash landed Into the antenna hitting the button in his pocket which made all the back screens flicker and show the new rate. Tony seeing the commotion swallowed an entire hot dog outside the bank, passed out and somebody hit the wrong alarm for an ambulance.. how have we become so gullable over the years with these guru lies??? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
