  2. the end is not so close. http://www.iraq-businessnews.com/?s=elections&x=16&y=7 Protesting against election results is unconstitutional, says Iraqi politician Posted on 22 March 2010. Democratic elections normally lead to stability and a smooth transfer of power. But not in Iraq. The results of the latest elections may lead to violence and instability in a country torn by wars and civil strife. The President Jalal Talabani and Prime Minister Noor al-Maliki both dispute the results and have called for a recount. This is strongly supported by the Chairs of the provincial councils for nine provinces; Baghdad, Al-Qadesia, Najaf, Karbala, Babil, Basra, Wasit, Dhi Qar, and Al-Muthana, as it is stated by the Chair of Basra Provincial Council- Mr. Jabar Ameen- in a Press Conference conducted post a meeting held for the Chairs of those nine provinces, in Al-Basra Provincial Council Building. He has further asserted on the necessity of the positive reply of the Election Commission for these demands, and recount the manual excreating of the votes, under the monitor of international experts, and representatives of political blocs. The likely winners and the independent commission supervising the elections say that is almost impossible to do. And demonstration against the results have swept at least two provinces in southern Iraq. The Iraqi Bloc, garnering the largest number of votes so far, has described those demonstrations as illegal and unconstitutional.
  3. even if they do just that, making $1.00 US equaling 1.17 IQD. then I would cash in $1,000,000 IQD and save the rest for an increase later on. thats still a great return.

  5. I thought the rv was here! a lot of posts were saying RV.. oh well, OOPS! YOU GOT ME AGAIN. lol there we go again, another let down. lets all sit back down and remember, don't hold your breathe. some day we will remain standing, in Gods time.
  6. http://gulfnews.com/business/opinion/bank-tells-the-real-story-1.599145 Bank tells the real story Troubled Investment house produced pamphlets telling its clients what happened and how they plan to bring the company back on its feet Financial Times Published: 00:00 March 18, 2010 Gulf companies are rarely known for transparency and often become even more opaque at times of financial distress. But Global Investment House, a Kuwaiti investment bank that defaulted in December 2008, has chosen another tack. Rather than retreat into a shell, the bank opted to be open and transparent about its restructuring. Global management produced pamphlets detailing what the company was going through, and distributed badges to employees that exclaimed: "I am up to the challenge." When a restructuring plan was signed late last year, the bank's employees wore "We did it" badges and marked the occasion by erecting a large blue sign outside its headquarters in Kuwait City, "celebrating Global's debt restructuring", and listed its multifarious creditors. "2009 had its battlefields, and there was a lot of pain, but things are looking better now," says Maha Al Gunaim, Global's chairwoman and managing director. Regional bankers, some of whom doubted Global could survive its default, grudgingly salute its conduct over the past year
  7. " Over the next two years, Iraq intends to transform and modernize its public financial management (PFM) system. Late last year, in consultation with the IMF and the World Bank, Iraq has adopted a three-year action plan that identified priority measures in the areas of budget preparation, execution and reporting; cash management; public procurement; and the accounting framework. " the key words here are 3 years! I'm not trying to be negative or bash knock anyones posts, but I see the few words or dates that some others refuse to see or talk about. these things have to be in place or at least close in order to get an RV. this is just my opinion!!!
  8. did you forget about the " 2011 and 2012" . notice the quotations. aren't they also saying within the next two years or did I miss something?
  9. there's alot of people that believe the rv could happen any day. honestly I'm hoping and praying that it does, but what keeps me in my seat is the fact that I have jumped out of my seat way to many times already just to sit back down and almost cry. Its like watching your favorite football team run and pass the ball all the way down to the red zone time after time just to turn over the ball to the team you hate the most. I'm going to hold on to my seat until Ali and some of these other dealers stop selling then I will stand, ready to jump up in the air for joy. I'm still praying for tonight or tomorrow to go to cali and cash in but I'm not holding my breathe, just praying, praying, praying. I haven't given up, and I won't, it will happen.
  10. I hear that we have to wait until Iraq gets the summer olympics in 2024, but they're next in line after Milton Bradley revalues the Monopoly currency. Ughh..thanks for sharing mimard, but I just wish I could remain on a high for at least 24 hours without getting kicked in the ***** again. lol. no intensions of bringing you down off your high, but i,ve gotten high so many times and the comming down is a real bummer, I will wait for the real high when it truely is at the rv stage.
  11. I clearly remember telling you not to share this info because it hasn't been confirmed. lol actually I kind of agree with you, but Im thinking closer to late august. its not what I was hoping for but iraq is not ready for rv, jmo, I hope Im wrong.
  12. http://gulfnews.com/news/region/iraq/politicians-vie-for-power-ahead-of-iraq-poll-results-1.594518 Politicians vie for power ahead of Iraq poll results Groups stake claim seeing fractured outcome Bloomberg Published: 00:00 March 10, 2010 Baghdad: Political manoeuvring was under way in Iraq before initial results from the parliamentary election are announced, with early indications that no party would win a majority and tough coalition bargaining lies ahead. Vice-President Tarek Al Hashemi told a televised news conference in Baghdad that the next president of the country must be an Arab. "This country is Arab and an Arab should be on top," he said. The current president is Kurdish politician Jalal Talabani, who has already declared his intention to stay on in the job. The president is elected by parliament. The main competitors are Prime Minister Nouri Al Maliki's State of Law alliance and the Iraqiya party of a former premier, Eyad Allawi. Coalition-building is essential to a US plan to withdraw its troops as Iraq establishes a stable government. American officials insist the pullout will go ahead. Districts that have tallied at least 30 per cent of their votes report to Baghdad. Final results may not be certified until the end of the month. Turnout was 62.4 per cent, Iraq's Independent High Electoral Commission said. Al Maliki's and Allawi's lists of candidates may each get less than a third of the 325 seats at stake, according to reports from Iraqi media. Allawi's list is "neck and neck" with Al Maliki's bloc, Allawi's official spokeswoman, Maysoon Al Damluji, said yesterday in a phone interview from Baghdad. "We are doing pretty well."
  13. http://gulfnews.com/opinions/columnists/iraq-faces-a-test-of-sovereignty-1.594403 Iraq faces a test of sovereignty Political leaders will never earn the respect of the broader Arab world as long as American occupation continues By Gordon Robison, Special to Gulf News Published: 00:00 March 10, 2010 Iraq is a better place now than it was one, or two, or five years ago. Image Credit: Illustration: Ramachandra Babu/Gulf News The turnout for Sunday's parliamentary elections was reported to be lower than in previous post-Saddam Iraqi polls. Still, the spectacle of Iraqis braving violence and threats of violence to cast ballots was meaningful. Flawed though they may have been these are still among the freest elections in the Middle East and that alone means something. As we await the results, however, a larger question looms over Iraq's political process: whether the politicians can show as much determination as the voters who elected them. Put simply: The real test of Iraq's nascent democracy is still to come. Once the votes are in, will the politicians be able to put together a functioning government with reasonable dispatch? Recent history is not promising; and if Iraq is to emerge as a stable, genuinely independent country, that will have to change. Every informed observer agrees that some delay is to be expected as the winners of Sunday's election jockey for position and begin the process of putting together a new government. What remains to be seen is how long this process is going to take. Political paralysis set in in the months following Iraq's last parliamentary election in December 2005. That, in turn, caused an already violent country to quickly spiral downwards. The February 2006 bombing of the Al Askari Mosque in Samarra marked a tipping-point; one of a handful of moments during this conflict at which Iraq's violence level reached new highs while also seeming to establish a new, more gruesome base, from which it would work in the future. Mercifully, things have improved since then. The question looming over the weeks and months ahead is whether the country's political class is up to the task of building on the security gains of the last three years. Sunday's vote was also a reminder of the nether world of pseudo-sovereignty in which Iraq presently exists. Media reports emphasised the omnipresence of Iraqi troops deployed in the country's streets to ensure that the elections passed off peacefully, and the degree to which Americans and other foreign troops stayed in the background throughout the process. Gameplan Even as they praised this accomplishment, however, Washington's politicians and pundits discussed Iraq's future in a way that left little doubt who they believe the country's real decision-makers still are. Throughout last week there were hints that General Ray Odierno, the commander of the American and coalition forces in Iraq, believes some revisions to the timetable for US withdrawal agreed upon in the waning days of George W. Bush's presidency may be required. The idea that the new Iraqi government, once formed, might have something to say about this was never, as far as I am aware, raised during the extensive television and newspaper commentary on Iraq that marked the American weekend. Yet this is an issue that needs to be addressed. If Iraq is emerging, however slowly and tentatively, as a real democracy, then the status of foreign forces is certain to become a central issue in the country's politics sooner rather than later. The legal and political status of American troops and foreign contractors has already been much debated in Iraq. It would be na
