Reinman, thank you for your excellent observations. Curious, how do those same set of comparisons work when comparing, Jordan, Quatar, or the UAE? All the best, Lgraham

Thanks for the quote, but you are taking me completely out of context. I am more the contrarian than most. Almost everyone over there believes that Stevel and Ray have contacts that provide some inside info or conformation. I do not. Steve has people believing that right after the GOI is formed, the budget will be passed and the RV will be activated. All within days. Of course he doesn't give exact dates anymore because he has been wrong so many times. He just implies things now by using the words, soon, very soon, extremely close, finish line and so forth. As for myself, I am hopeful that this GOI does get formed, the HCL, the budget, article 140, the tariff law and other free market laws are passed and activated. After that, I would look for article 8 IMF agreement. I remain hopeful that all this could occur by January 1. I view this as a realistic opportunity to launch this massive reset for an entire country. Thanks Ron for your post All the best, Lgraham

It's great to be the king!

If they will give me one dollar for every one dinar I have, I will send all of mine back to them and save them the cost of reprinting the currency. Lgraham

I found this article over at Going Global. Big thanks to Sager as well! Sure hope there is some substance to this!

Thanks for the real life story RVDinar4MyFamily......Coming from you a fellow pool guy of over 20 years......I know that this really happened to you....All your posts make this story have total credibility All the best my friend, Lgraham

Automag.....I sure have missed your commentary around here.....Thanks for a terrific post (+) All the best my friend, Lgraham

Let me see if I have this right.....A guy comes to the DV forum after being a member for less than 3 weeks. Most of his 17 posts are attacking or challenging the credibility of the best researcher in all of the dinar world. Then, the owner of this site adds credibility to the attacker of 3 weeks and asks Scooter to explain himself based upon the fact that Scooter appeared on the same radio show as Rudy.......I guess Scooter or anyone else should be doing backround checks on anyone that they might be a guest with.........If I do a radio interview with the president of the United States, do I need to let everyone in this country know that the president has associated with known terrorists and convicted felons of real estate fraud? I just don't get it.......Scooter, you are a class act and maybe we just don't deserve someone with your integrity and generosity. All the best to you Scooter, where ever you may go Lgraham

Phoenix.....Here is another question for Scooter......What advantages can there be to actually keep the rate where it is? They already have a budget, They already have hundreds of billions in signed reconstruction contracts. So, can they benefit in some way by keeping the rate this low and start doing business with the rest of the world.....Kind of like China, Korea or Vietnam. Lgraham

Thanks Phoenix, enjoy your radio program! Ask Scooter if he believes the Presidential executive order extension that was signed on May 17th will give the Iraqi funds that are currently held in the D.F.I accounts, adequate protection from all international leins or judgements once the UN protections expire on June 30 All the best, Lgraham

Sometimes it is nice to reflect back on important comments from people like Shabibi. He said this in Cairo at the Arab banking conference in 2008. Rest assured that this is still on track. Personally, I believe that Dr. Shabibi is pursuing his plan. These delays ( if they even are delays) are for the purpose to complete this plan. Dr. Shabibi did not come out from a comfortable retirement for no reason. When he pulls this off, the world will recognize him as a brilliant man. He is not the type of man that will let petty politicians exploit his people. This will happen in his timing....Then he can retire to a history that will establish Shabibi as the man that brought Iraq back to glory. The old link for this no longer works, otherwise I would include it. Rest assured, this is his plan! I am not going to debate with anyone here that wishes to say that he wants to LOP then RV to accomplish this. If you really think that is his plan then go right ahead. My point is not to persuade any lopsters to change their mind. This is simply a great reminder of just how this entire IQD will RV at the old rate got started in the first place. So, let's forgive all the gurus for a moment and realize that it was Shabibi that started all of it! All the best, Lgraham The stability of the exchange rate of the dinar against the dollar CAIRO - Muhammad Khalifa Dr. Sinan Alshabibi Governor of the Central Bank exchange rate stability of the Iraqi dinar against the dollar, and that the bank encourages citizens to buy dinar and handling and keeping it Where currencies began his confidence day by day and became keen on the conduct of the dollar and the dinar rather buy it as it saw Amian revealed dinar return to power, which led to the elimination of inflation, which we suffer from in the past. He said Alshabibi told the (morning) during his participation in the Arab banking conference in 2008, held in Cairo under the slogan (the role of banks in financing investment projects in Arabic) sponsored by the Arab League, we aspire in the near future to the return of Iraqi dinar to what it was in the seventies and the beginning eighties against the dollar and other foreign currencies and we are endeavouring and serious in this regard, but added that this process is not easy and simple and depends on the supply and demand of Iraqi dinars.And encourage the private sector in the transfer of capital between countries reported: that opportunities are open to all and free to move money to any country that wants alluding shortage of regulatory issues in this area because we are still suffering from a routine killer in most government departments, explaining that there Many banks have formed a civil relations with a wide Arab and international banks and well and bode well Annci and we were in isolation from the world banking over 30 years but at the same time we are moving very fast pace.
