  1. Entitlement my ass, I paid cash for my social security insurance!!!! Just because the government borrowed the money, doesn't make my benefits some kind of charity or handout!! Congressional benefits, aka. Free healthcare, outrageous retirement packages, 67 paid holidays, three weeks paid vacation, unlimited paid sick days, now that's welfare, and they have the nerve to call my retirement entitlements!!!!!!.....scroll down............... What the HELL's wrong??? WAKE UP AMERICA !!!! Tuesday's Daily Bulletin paper, ran two articles on the front page side by side: 1- Calif 's 20 Billion Dollar Budget Deficit 2- The Calif Supreme Court ruling that ILLEGALS can attend college and get benefits. Why don't they just deport them when they arrive to register? 3- Last year they ran an article on the yearly costs to Calif Taxpayers from Illegals using Hospital Emergency Rooms for their general health care. - At just one hospital the cost to tax payers totaled over 25 million a year. Someone please tell me what the HELL's wrong with all the people that run this country!!!!!! We're "broke" and can't help our own Seniors, Veterans, Orphans, Homeless etc.,??????????? In the last couple of years we have provided aid to Haiti, Chile, and Turkey . And now Pakistan ......home of bin Laden. Literally, BILLIONS of DOLLARS!!! Our retired seniors living on a 'fixed income' receive no aid nor do they get any breaks while our government and religious organizations pour Hundreds of Billions of $$$$$$'s and Tons of Food to Foreign Countries! They call Social Security and Medicare an entitlement even though most of us have been paying for it all our working lives and now when its time for us to collect, the government is running out of money. Why did the government borrow from it in the first place? We have hundreds of adoptable children who are shoved aside to make room for the adoption of foreign orphans. AMERICA: a country where we have homeless without shelter, children going to bed hungry, elderly going without 'needed' meds, and mentally ill without treatment -etc, etc. YET..................... They have a 'Benefit' for the people of Haiti on 12 TV stations, ships and planes lining up with food, water, tents clothes, bedding, doctors and medical supplies. Imagine if the *GOVERNMENT* gave 'US' the same support they give to other countries. Sad isn't it?

  2. Not sure if this was already posted but I hadn't seen it here yet. Will Iraq’s currency, the Iraq Dinar, revalue soon? The answer is “yes!” 1.DFI (Development Funds for Iraq) runs out. Not a rumor! If this runs out, they lose their protection against law suits from claimants from the previous regime. http://articlesofinterest-kelley.blogspot.com/2010/12/june-30th-2011-times-up-iraq-and-un.html 2.CBI report states that the RV has to be done by June 30. (Page 38 “Revalue” ) http://www.imf.org/e…2011/cr1175.pdf 3.UN recognizes IQD as a viable currency once it revalues http://treasury.un.org/operationalrates/OperationalRates.aspx 4.Bagdad Ministry of Planning (MOP) makes future rate projections can be as low as $1.134 dollars, but most likely will be near the $4 USD mark http://www.mop.gov.i…&pid=295&lng=en 5.In an article titled, “The Recent Iraq 2011 Budget May Have Leaked the Coming Currency Revaluation” you’ll see some guestimations of the RV happening at .855 USD, which is where you are hearing rumors of the .86 cent claims. 6.Based on Iraq Government and Banking documents posted in public view, we should see an RV before the end of June, probably as soon as they can now and the rate should be over 3.20 USD to 1 IQD. This is not based on inside information or some hidden inside source, this is based on Public documentation. No guess work, it is what the Iraq government and CBI have already told us. 7.UN accepted budget projections for Iraq are $90.1 billion. However, oil revenues are estimated at only $26.1 billion. 90.1/26.1 = $3.452 USD just to meet their existing UN approved budget. It is probably safe to assume they will include additional government spending so that’s why you are hearing estimates for the RV rate as high as $4.41. , In another article “The Iraq Revaluation Soon” this paragraph ended the article, “Recently, the Iraqi Government stated “We have promised the people of Baghdad and Iraq that the next four years will be the phase of construction and better economy, and we will live up to our promises” So, to answer the original question asked above, “Will Iraq’s currency, the Iraqi Dinar, gain value compared to other world currencies soon?” Absolutely, YES!… Because a new government is in place, and old oil fields are getting back on line, and new ones are being discovered, and the security has been restored. Iraq also had a lot of debt piled up owing to many other countries. And most of that debt has been forgiven by those countries. What will keep the currency revaluation from happening now? Common sense and public information seems to indicate it should happen very soon! There is no reason for further hesitation! http://dinartrade.or…evaluation-soon

  3. I just wanted to say that i am eating crow and it don't taste good because there is no recipe to make it better. I have to apologize and i said i would if it didn't happen the 1st. I stuck my neck out on my intuitions and i was wrrrrrrrroooonnnnggg and i have learned my lesson. These guys over there can make more excuses than carters got liver pills so i will leave all RV dates up to the ones who can say it with a straight face and sleep at night. Thats not me. I will wait and read and wait for my email like the rest of you.

  4. This is the latest from Steve Ernossete - Thur, June 2 – food for thought as usual when he ‘writes’- What is holding up the RV and what can be done about it? 6/2/2011 by Ernorrste Today at 2:11 pm For the last several weeks I have dwelt on what might be causing the delays in the pending RV. In this process I have been led, I believe, to the answer. Let me take you down my thought process. There are a number of players that have a stake in the RV. Some have more say than others, obviously. Let’s look at the players and deal with each one separately to see if we can eliminate any of them from the mix. Here are the players, as I see them: The UN The World Bank The US Treasury The President of the US Possible Terrorist Implications The IMF The Government of Iraq (completion) The Parliament of Iraq Prime Minister Maliki The CBI (Shabibi) or The Ministry of Finance The hidden Powerful Elite Gurus on various dinar sites and their members I have come to the conclusion that the UN is not a force in this action at this time. The UN has been urging Iraq to clean up its issues related to release from Chapter 7 for many months now. They have applauded the successes of Iraq while, more recently, given pointers for the last few points that needed to be addressed by Iraq for total release. In the meantime Iraq has been diligently working to eliminate these last few problems, and appears to have succeeded in doing so. In any case, it is my opinion that the RV and the release from Chapter 7 are no longer linked, even though a final announcement of release may coincide with the RV announcement. For purposes of this post, however, I do not believe that the UN is holding up the RV. The World Bank is a minor player in this event and has never been seriously looked at as a “contender” in any sense in holding up the RV. As a lending agent to underdeveloped countries it has offered funds to Iraq over the years, but there has never been any indication that their funding of Iraq has anything to do with the RV itself. Therefore I do not see them as a player in the RV process. The US Treasury appears to have had input in the timing of the RV in the past. We get an indication of this from the fact that the UST has made some “rule” changes that will affect our ability to cash in our dinars. It is my opinion that these rule changes have come about because of our “loose lips” on the chat and conference calls. Such things as “ledger to ledger transfers” and “direct dinars-to-gold” exchanges” have been eliminated in recent months as options to us for cashing in. It is my opinion that these changes came about by the UST to close loopholes that otherwise might have made it difficult for the UST (or IRS, more particularly) to monitor our tax liabilities. It is my opinion, however, that the UST is no longer a factor in the delay of the RV. It has been some time since any rule changes have been announced. It seems to me that the UST is now an advocate of an imminent RV in Iraq rather than a delaying force. The President of the US has been labeled as a delayer in the recent past. Some gurus have claimed (who knows how they get this information…..) that Obama wanted a higher rate for the US Government than the one available at the banks. According to this “intel” he was rebuffed and the situation was resolved without his winning the argument. In any case, the same “intel” has claimed that he “signed off” on all paperwork. This would indicate to me that he is no longer a factor in any delays of the RV. In fact, if it is actually true that he did sign off on the paperwork (again, how do they know this…….) then he, along with us, is now awaiting the RV announcement as well. More recently we heard from one of the gurus that apparently some terrorist organizations have been able to obtain “pallet loads” of dinars and that Interpol and the CIA have been working diligently to capture these “rogue dinars” and stop the terrorists from benefiting from the new rate, which would of course allow them to fund even greater terrorist activities. Fortunately the guru who reported this has indicated that the situation is now resolved, so this is no longer a delay in the RV announcement, if in fact it ever was one. I must admit, however, that the idea that any group of persons could obtain “pallet loads” of dinars seems a bit far fetched to me. Whatever. The threat is now apparently gone, so the dinar is not being held up by “terrorist implications.” The IMF is clearly a major player in the entire process leading to the RV of the dinar. As the world’s “currency monitor” it claims responsibility, ultimately, for balancing the values of the world’s currencies. It is on record for several years now having stated that its “new” policy is to realign all of the major currencies in the world to reflect the “underlying wealth” of a given country. I have discussed this in detail previously so I will not dwell on it here. It is my opinion, however, that this process has been complete for some time now, probably several months in fact, and that the IMF is actually frustrated that the RV of the dinar has not been “made available” yet as a part of the entire basket of currencies to be revalued at one time. While there have been “intel” statements in the past that certain countries “weren’t ready yet” there have also been more recent statements indicating that every country is now ready and that they are waiting on Iraq. Assuming this “intel” is correct, then, we can see that the IMF is not delaying the RV of the dinar. In fact, it is apparently awaiting the announcement, along with Mr. Obama. It had been stated some time ago by Mr. Shabibi that he would announce the RV when the government of Iraq was completed. For many months we have all awaited the announcement of the names of the last 3 ministry positions in the belief that this is what was the cause of the delay in the RV. However, last month Mr. Shabibi was asked directly how the government was affecting the timing of the RV. His answer was short and complete: “The formation of the GOI has nothing to do with the RV.” Since he is the man who is ultimately in charge of the changing of the rate of the dinar (as he clearly indicated in an previous answer to a question at the same Chamber of Commerce meeting in Washington D.C.) then we can almost certainly trust his words on this matter. Therefore I do not see the completion of the formation of the government as a delay in the RV announcement, contrary to what some gurus are now, again, reporting. If the final formation of the government of Iraq is not a factor, could the parliament itself in some way be holding up the RV? Once again we must revert back to Mr. Shabibi, who announced clearly that he was going to draft a law regarding the “removal of the three zeros”, then pass it by the cabinet and Prime Minister, and from there onto the parliament for approval. According to the press reports, he did in fact draft the law. He also passed it through the cabinet and the Prime Minister’s office. And, according to that article from several weeks ago now, it was to go before Parliament at the beginning of the following week for a vote. We may safely assume that the vote did in fact take place and that the “rubber stamping” of the “removal of the three zeros” had been approved. Of course we know that the “removal of the three zeros” had in fact been taking place since December 2009 and was in effect completed when the draft law was written. Therefore, as I have indicated before, the term “removal of the three zeros” was a code phrase for the RV itself rather than what it said, since what it said was already completed. Therefore, the parliament has apparently already approved the final draft law of the RV. Since that is the case, they are not a factor in the delay of the RV anymore. This brings me to Prime Minister Maliki. It is clear to me that Mr. Maliki is a force in the overall process that is causing delays in the formation of the government of Iraq. What is NOT clear to me is that his obstinence, as I would call it, is a factor that is delaying the RV announcement itself. In fact, based upon his TV announcement from last week, it would appear that he was trying to push the ball forward with respect to the RV announcement rather than delay it in any real sense. Therefore, even if he has played a role in the past in delaying the final RV announcement, it seems clear to me that his most recent statement indicates that he is in fact ready for it to be announced as soon as possible. Incidentally, we have had “intel” from as far back as two or three months ago in which we were told that Maliki had told Shabibi to get the RV done as soon as possible. Therefore, if this “intel” is accurate, Maliki is certainly not the delaying force holding up the RV announcement. In any case, his latest TV showing indicates that he believes personally that this thing is essentially “done” and ready to be made public “at any moment.” This brings me to Mr. Shabibi and the entire CBI and Ministry of Finance. Clearly the CBI works in conjunction with the Ministry of Finance. In my book I have shown that the two organizations have worked together since 2005 with the plan that is now coming to fruition. However, I also showed that the Ministry of Finance deferred to the CBI, and in particular to Mr. Shabibi, in the approval and implementation of the plan itself. Therefore we need only concern ourselves with Mr. Shabibi himself in terms of asking whether or not he is a factor in the delay of the announcement of the RV. We know that as far back as February of 2010 Mr. Shabibi had informed the IMF that he was ready to bring the dinar into Forex as an internationally tradable currency “in the near future.” This was over 15 months ago, which is hardly a time frame that could be called the “near future.” More recently, at the meeting of the Chamber of Commerce in Washington D.C. he said that the revaluation of the dinar would occur “very soon.” It seems to me, then, that Mr. Shabibi has been ready for quite some time to see the completion of his 5 year turned to 6 year project. The very fact that he was “ready” 15 months ago and that he indicated over 2 weeks ago that it was going to happen “very soon” is, to me, a sign that he is definitely NOT delaying the RV announcement. Instead, it would seem apparent that he is attempting to push the announcement through, rather than delay it any farther. I would be totally remiss if I did not include the real power brokers of the world. I called them the Powerful Elite, and they truly are both powerful and elite. I am referring to the banking interests worldwide who pull most of the strings that run this world. Let’s just say that the Powerful Elite are ruthless and have no allegiance to any country. Their allegiance is to power and to money. So, then, knowing that this coming RV of up to 110 countries around the world will be a huge boost to the world economy, can anyone think of a reason why they would want to delay the RV of the dinar in Iraq? The answer, quite simply, is no, they are not behind the delays. In fact, I would venture to guess that they’ve been ready to roll this out since December of 2009 and that they are just as frustrated as we are. This leaves me with only one other group that might be delaying the announcement of the RV. That group is us, quite frankly. Unless you think I am naïve I am aware that there are some who think that it is arrogant of us to even think that the “players” pay any attention to us at all. The simple truth is that the frenzy of anticipation that exists on dinar-related web sites has clearly drawn the attention of the other players. We have had evidence of this in the “rules” changes from the UST/IRS as well as recent “intel” from high level “three letter” agencies requesting that we tone down our rhetoric somewhat. Furthermore, if we are drawing the attention of the “powers” of the “3 letter agencies” in the US you can best believe that we have the attention of others outside the US as well. However, is it actually possible that WE are the delaying factor in the coming RV? Does that really make sense? This brings me to the final answer as to Who is really delaying the RV, and why, and what can be done about it. It seems perfectly clear to me now that we are not the source of the delay. However, it also seems clear to me that the delay is ultimately in the hands of God, and that He has delayed this RV announcement because of our infantile obsession over it. You all may think I am off base here. So be it. I will apologize when I am shown to be wrong, if that turns out to be the case. However, having exhausted every other possibility, perhaps it is time to look upward, and then look inward, to find the real Source of the delay. Our obsession is hardly something to be rewarded, is it? Perhaps, just perhaps, it is time for us to “let go, and let God.” In doing so, obediently, we will finally relax into His will rather than act like ravenous wolves in chat sites and conference calls, constantly calling out for “rates and dates.” Perhaps, just perhaps, if we did stop totally, and wait on God, this would be enough, for Him, to see our obedience to Him. Perhaps then He would end the delay. Let’s ask ourselves some questions about just how we are acting, and how we are perceived as this process has unfolded. We can start with the most obvious question: has any intel at all ever been shown to have been accurate? We all know the answer to this is a resounding “NO.” But does that make sense? My father used to say to me this simple and yet true statement: “Son, even a blind sow can find an acorn once in awhile.” By that he meant that somewhere, sometime, everyone is bound to be right at least once in awhile. However, in the case of all of the searching and all of the sources and all of the article analyses by all of the gurus from all of the various dinar sites we can proudly make one claim: not one shred of “intel” has yet proven to be accurate. Take a simple example. The announcement of the final three ministers has been predicted, claimed, touted, and finalized conclusively by any number of gurus for several months now. Yet as of this moment I can confidently state that no one knows for certain if the process is completed or not (in spite of the fact that the latest “intel” even gives their names!). Here is another example that points out the absurdity of some of the guru claims. Have you ever noticed how every time Hillarious or Joe leave the country that at least one guru comes out and says that they are heading to Iraq? Yet we find out later that in fact that wasn’t the case at all, or, if in the few cases one of them did go to Iraq we have no evidence that the RV was the topic of discussion, in spite of the guru statements to the contrary. Now I do not belittle the people who are sincerely trying to figure this out. In fact, I’m surprised that they continue to do what they do, given their track records. One would begin to think that their “sources” aren’t very reliable and that they would be more hesitant to repeat what they’ve been told. I know I would be. Yet they continue to present their case for “just what is going on behind the closed doors” each week, only to discover the following week that their information wasn’t quite accurate, or, to put it more bluntly, wasn’t accurate at all. Now I have three close friends on this site who participate in this process with all of the seriousness that anyone could have in this endeavor. I can also attest that they are just as frustrated, time and again, as you and I are when we hear the “intel” and then find out it is not accurate, again and again. So I’m drawn to one conclusion, and one only, regarding the reason for the delay in the announcement of the RV. That conclusion is that God Himself is hindering the announcement. If He were not the Source of these constant delays and twists, then why, as my Dad would have said, hasn’t some blind sow found at least one acorn yet? In other words, who other than God could give all of the gurus on all of the sites a 100% perfect failure rate? I believe I can rest my case here with little fear of being refuted on this point. So we have the answer as to Who has delayed the RV announcement. We must now ask the next two questions: Why is it being delayed and what can be done about it? At this point I am following a normal analytical process to its conclusion. I could be wrong on this, but I doubt it. Having eliminated all of the major players from this equation we are left with ourselves only. So we must honestly ask ourselves why God would delay the RV announcement because of us. When the question is asked this bluntly the answer begins to appear fairly quickly, doesn’t it? After all, if this is truly a worldwide event, planned from before the beginning of time by God Himself, as we believe, as a blessing to believers and a great wealth transfer as prophetically announced by Isaiah and others some 2700 years ago, then perhaps, just perhaps, our attitude might be a factor in what is causing God to delay His plan. Is it possible, or even probable, that He is waiting for us? Let’s look at how we have been reacting, and see if we can’t gain some clarity from His perspective, instead of from our own only. For instance, if you were God, and you knew just exactly what you needed for this to roll out perfectly, you’d want to have good stewards, right? You’d want to have people who were mature, prepared, and patient, right? And you would definitely have a concern if instead you saw people whose sole purpose seemed to be “rate and date” or “intel” or “who will get the announcement first?” or “where should we look?” and so on. To me it seems evident that we are not living up to our responsibilities in this regard. We seem to have a desperation attitude instead of an attitude of confidence and patience. Now I’m not saying everyone has all of these issues, but clearly many, if not most, have expressed some or several of these issues in the recent past. The reality is that there is now a near panic mentality as the event approaches, and instead of a peaceful knowledge leading to patience we have evidence of depression, anxiety, and frustration. Therefore, I’d like us all to look within ourselves this week and see if we aren’t a factor in the delay of the RV announcement. Are we ready, or is God still waiting on us to get ready? Realizing the enormity of the upcoming event, and knowing that it is a God-sized plan gives us reason to be a little antsy. However, we should all, and I include myself in this incidentally, be looking for leadership from our Lord. Instead of saying, “Are you running with me Jesus?” perhaps we should be saying, “When you are ready, Lord, tell me what to do.” Just how this message will affect each individual is something that I have no control over. Some will get more from it than others. Some, probably on other sites, will pooh-pooh it as dribble. My concern is not for the outcome, but for the presentation. I hope that I have laid this out clearly enough for us all to see that we are, in fact, also “players” in this grand scheme. Furthermore, I hope that we each see that our individual actions and attitudes may well be affecting the timing of the release of the RV announcement. Take care. Look upward, and then look inward. If you do, you will know what to do next. Steve

  5. There are people on here still trying to come up with all kinds of formulas between tne number of people holding dinars, the average held and what kind of rate whether it will bankrupt Iraq trying to pay millions an millions of dollars to people not just here but all over the world. First let me say that sometime back the US signed a deal with Iraq to buy oil for our nation at 35 dollars a barrell when they needed it. All the people holding dinars here in the US when cash in time comes will simply go to their chosen places with whatever they will be cash in at the time and the bank will perform the necessary steps for you, make you happy, hear you scream, watch some faint, haul some out in an ambulance, but seriously you will have your receipt in hand showing your new wealth whatever that may be and you can go on your merry little way planning, buying, joining the rich side of the table. After you turn these in to what ever place it will go to the US Treasury and between the rate you got the Treasury will up it a little to let the banks make some more besides any spread or transaction fees. All these dinars will go to the US Treasury vault to be used later.Not only will the vault fill up with dinars it will fill up with our taxes to make uncle sam happy. And this question i like, "How is the business section going to function with 3 million plus people not showing up for their jobs " first these 3 million people are not consentrated in one area or one job profession. For example maybe there is an office with 15 people in it and one jumps up and says....Its here i don't work here no more.... there are 14 people left to handle it until they hire another. Now let me add that 3 million or so new millionaires contributing to the economy spending money like... Brewsters millions...funny movie by the way is paid making the govt happy, 3 million new faces will have jobs that was maybe unemployed making the govt happy. We get what we want, the govt gets what it wants. They have money coming in from every direction and we will continue to spend our money for years. millions of people will have new jobs to feed their families. I'll be happy, you'll be happy, Uncle Sam will be happy and maybe it will last for a while.

  6. The ANT AND THE GRASSHOPPER This one is a little different ...... Two Different Versions ..... Two Different Morals OLD VERSION: The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his house and laying up supplies for the winter. The grasshopper thinks the ant is a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away. Come winter, the ant is warm and well fed. The grasshopper has no food or shelter, so he dies out in the cold. MORAL OF THE OLD STORY: Be responsible for yourself! MODERN VERSION: The ant works hard in the withering heat and the rain all summer long, building his house and laying up supplies for the winter. The grasshopper thinks the ant is a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away. Come winter, the shivering grasshopper calls a press conference and demands to know why the ant should be allowed to be warm and well fed while he is cold and starving. CBS, NBC , PBS, CNN, and ABC show up to provide pictures of the shivering grasshopper next to a video of the ant in his comfortable home with a table filled with food. America is stunned by the sharp contrast. How can this be, that in a country of such wealth, this poor grasshopper is allowed to suffer so? Kermit the Frog appears on Oprah with the grasshopper and everybody cries when they sing, 'It's Not Easy Being Green..' ACORN stages a demonstration in front of the ant's house where the news stations film the group singing, We shall overcome. Then Rev. Jeremiah Wright has the group kneel down to pray for the grasshopper's sake. President Obama condemns the ant and blames President Bush, President Reagan, Christopher Columbus, and the Pope for the grasshopper's plight. Nancy Pelosi & Harry Reid exclaim in an interview with Larry King that the ant has gotten rich off the back of the grasshopper, and both call for an immediate tax hike on the ant to make him pay his fair share. Finally, the EEOC drafts the Economic Equity & Anti-Grasshopper Act retroactive to the beginning of the summer. The ant is fined for failing to hire a proportionate number of green bugs and, having nothing left to pay his retroactive taxes, his home is confiscated by the Government Green Czar and given to the grasshopper. The story ends as we see the grasshopper and his free-loading friends finishing up the last bits of the ant's food while the government house he is in, which, as you recall, just happens to be the ant's old house, crumbles around them because the grasshopper doesn't maintain it. The ant has disappeared in the snow, never to be seen again. The grasshopper is found dead in a drug related incident, and the house, now abandoned, is taken over by a gang of spiders who terrorize and ramshackle, the once prosperous and peaceful, neighborhood. The entire Nation collapses bringing the rest of the free world with it. MORAL OF THE STORY: Be careful how you vote in 2012 I've sent this to you because I believe that you are an ant! You may wish to pass this on to other ants, but don't bother sending it on to any grasshopper's because they wouldn't understand it, anyway.

  7. Finally received an email response: "BanG was a hectic day , people have been chatting it up and celebrating as they have been told that there is a currency change in the process. We are hearing all kinds of mixed information from day to day in the GOI. Will keep you posted on the hype and currency talk. Do not believe everything you see or hear as to the protests and complaining crap as this is in very limited locations and not as big as they say it is. Most Iraqi's in the street are excited about the changes going on with the rejuvenation projects in Iraq and the removal of most of the blast barriers. As we said there is much to celebrate and the Iraqi's are cutting loose. Later BanG." This was the jist of the reply from my friend Jim. The guys appear to be doing well and the remaining pieces of the email are personal and directed to me. As we continue to chat I hope more information is revealed as to the daily lives of folks in Iraq. Peace.

  9. Good read. This is in the chat area at DD. DFI (Development Fund for Iraq) runs out June 30 2011, this is not rumor: http://articlesofinterest-kelley.blogspot.com/2010/12/june-30th-2011-times-up-iraq-and-un.html CBI Country report from march, states that the revaluation of currency has to be done before the end of June of 2011, search the document for revalue: http://www.imf.org/external/pubs/ft/scr/2011/cr1175.pdf There is a bunch of stuff they need to do after the currency revalues, so yeah, has to happen real soon. They can not wait till the last minute and still get the work done that has to be done after the RV and before June 30th. The UN Recognizes the Iraq currency as a viable up and coming international currency, but they will not post a real Rate change until it actually happens: http://treasury.un.org/operationalrates/OperationalRates.aspx Just being posted as having an operational exchange rate is a solid indication that it will become an international exchange currency. This chart will reflect that value change after it happens. There are numerous contracts that have to be paid and these are being filled by international companies, they are not going to continue for too long getting paid in currency that they can not spend outside of Iraq, especially when they are dependent on bringing in materials from the outside to fill these contracts. Don’t be fooled by estimated rates for future planning. These are rates that are being used to make planning closer to ball park figures. http://www.mop.gov.iq/mop/index.jsp?sid=1&id=308&pid=295&lng=en This site is as it says so that they can make future plans with an estimate of possible revalued dinar. An actual RV will supersede these rates. This is significant as we get links to contracts and budget information that is based on this standardized estimate until the currency really assumes it’s true value, like: http://dinartrade.org/the-recent-iraq-2011-budget-may-have-leaked-the-coming-currency-revaluation/ or the Dam contract for 11 Bln IQD These are based on feasibility estimates which will be lower then the actual RV in order to secure the feasibility of the project after the RV. If they did their estimates based on say 7 USD to 1 IQD and the RV came in at say 4 instead of 7 they would be way under budgeted and come up short on being able to pay off projects after the RV, so the estimate is low in order to insure the feasibility of being able to accomplish the end results post RV. Thought I would do a preemptive post before someone tried posting the RV is going to be 1.134 or 1.168 USD to 1 IQD. Any post that states the RV is coming in this low or lower is bad intel based on official public documentation. The feasibility article actually explains the justification for using a rate lower then 3.20 an accepted estimated rate of exchange, also not the RV rate. You can not plan or estimate feasibility on “I don’t know what it is worth” so they have set low-ball figures to be able to begin planning that has a reasonable chance of success. The Rate will be absolutely higher then the Estimated feasibility rate and probably higher then the additionally quoted estimated rate, when the RV actually happens. I am no Guru, and have no inside sources, this is not protected secret information, just using reasonable logic to analyze public information. Based on Iraq Government and Banking documents posted in public view, we should see an RV before the end of June, probably as soon as they can now and the rate should be over 3.20 USD to 1 IQD. This is not based on inside information or some hidden inside source, this is based on Public documentation. No guess work, it is what the Iraq government and CBI have already told us. If this does not happen, it is not bad intel received by a guru, it is the government and the bank of Iraq that will have failed to achieve their publicly stated plan of action. If this does not happen it does not mean it will never happen, just that the plan may fall behind schedule. Ask any contractor, they make their estimates on large projects padding cost and time, then adding a percentage to make sure they can get it done in budget and on time, but sometimes things happen and they still go over budget or past the project deadline, life is not perfectly predictable. I wonder if Vegas has a spread on the DATE and RATE … Totally agreed

Typical "Libtard" response meant to inflame people and distort facts when people don't agree with your viewpoint. I hope someone can figure out how to explain things to you. Obviously the children story moral was a little advanced for you. Not to worry us taxpayers fund many programs I am sure you can find one to address your problem, good luck grasshopper.

  13. Oh and by the way, I don't even know what "international settlements" are; I love the dollar, not familiar with "illuminati", and I do wish that Elvis was still alive. Owned my own businesses since 1984; and was a college administrator before that, and have played music professionally for over 30 years, much of that time at a high level. And I have been a successful currency trader since 2003. But more than anything, I love reading the opinions of others, and I don't have a need to "make people feel small" because of what they are thinking. No two trees look alike.

  15. 6-2-11 Frank’s Thursday Night Intel Call By DebTarheelGirl (GOOD ONE- check out all the highlights in GREEN) Sean McNeill (formerly an American Idol contestant) sang and Deb opened in prayer. Frank states June 2nd – 3rd is known as WTO Ascension Day…Ascension means go upward – enter – new beginning – commence – be accepted We did say pay attention to the 7th to 10th when Maliki’s 100 days were up… Do they have to have an increase in the 1170 value to join? No said Darline but they will be wasting time if they enter the WTO with no value to their currency- last month the WTO trained Iraq in their policies…. WHY? They are accepting them as a member with a celebration today – yesterday they were in the street shooting fireworks all happy as they know what’s coming… If we go to June 30th and they have not RV’d yet that’s not good for these things..…as the 3 zeros are completed now, the window is wide open as a barn door now to add value to the currency. What a better time says Darline as the 3rd if not joining the whole year on the WTO doors will close till next year… M &S candy = -a sweet deal happening with M & S Darline says she was told today we might be getting some candy tomorrow = FRIDAY = They will celebrate tomorrow but even though its religious, the rest of the world is expecting the money but the Iraqis will be bowing down to their independence and wholeness again- they will celebrating when the blessing occurs due to the Chapter 7 would have been lifted.. Trifecta = Possibly on Friday June 3rd… 1- we get to be financially wealthy = Iraq gets to have financial gain – total freedom 2- Freedom to the world completely from the UNSC shackles from the chapters which they can prosper now in world trade 3- Brand new GOI sit Darline got told Maliki & Shabibi right now are they might be getting ready to let the cat out of the bag – they are writing their speeches to get ready for Friday… Maliki will announce the GOI – Shabibi watching will say move Maliki as Washington is on my back to get things done Frank states the Ministers will be introduced – not having to vote or prove nothing – the ministers were and are and shall be…. This barn door is so wide now – so now Shabibi can come in and say thanks M for the cooperation and coordination…M will say full cabinet and been working for a full year now to lift the 3 zeros and put in effect the monetary plan – we are done and happy and pleased – So now we need to finish with giving you the currency and give you lower demons and give you the rate – Sunday they may start applying says Frank…. Darline said Iraq TV is showing people bringing in 25,000 dinar notes and they are giving them to tellers putting them in bundles today in Iraq…. Iraqi citizens bartered, using USD and GOLD and using the Kuwait Dinar and horded IQD’s till now… Auction after auction collected the 3 zeros… You and I and country’s Fed Reserves have most of the 3 zeros that are left We feel this may happen tomorrow about announcing the retrieval… THEY = Maliki and Shabibi are both working on getting this done ASAP. They are preparing a speech to the public…. Our sources are true in this Intel and this is their report to me today… Frank says June 7th is the100 days end for Maliki – till June 7th the doors are ready for Shabibi to announce the rate…Parliament returns on the 13th – this may be done before. Bazarani seats security ministers on the 13th should be done before that says Frank June 13-15th there will be an oil gas and power conference in Iraq. GE is in there and Oil is moving in there now – this is big…. No one wants to invest until they have a currency….and a Government seated to protect the people banks and money – security is in place says Frank Darline says the 15th of June is 6 months after Dec 15th when most of the sanctions were removed by UNSC and they gave Iraq 6 months to June 15th to close the Iraq-Kuwait files – it’s done… The Paris debt is like having a credit card… keep on making payments is fine toward that… Kuwait = follow their rate – watch when it is established and set – whatever it is, our rate will be just 2-3 pennies underneath it…per the agreements. June 15th the CBI promises the IMF to complete a lot of the work they have done with Banks.. They finished now financial packages, electronic deposits with ss#.. Customized banking now….in case you are about to make a lot of money… Pray for good counsel regarding your blessing – prepare – it’s for you and your children’s children and for the family of GOD. June 22nd and 23rd the Asian Pacific Economic Finance ministers will meet together with the ADD – American Development Banks– 21 member – they are getting involved with “toilet paper money”?????? THIS IS A PLAN – they know what’s happening… June 3th they are FREE of the DFI funds, all of Chapter 7 is lifted totally and it’s their best day yet – along with the WB and IMF they will combine with the CBI to end all their debt files – Darline says she thinks they have already done this- ITS BIG says Frank Article from CBI June 1st The Central Bank of Iraq is about to finish the project raising the zeros…… June 1st, 2011 12:35 pm • Posted in NEWS (Iraq & World Currency) Palm – The Central Bank of Iraq, on Tuesday, he is about to finish the project raise three zeroes from the currency, noting that the project is considered strategic, and submitted to the Council of Ministers and legislators if completed. The central bank adviser said the appearance of Mohammed Saleh during permit media raising project three zeros from the dinar is a strategic project and the Central Bank is in the process of finalizing the project, the idea of theory into practice, and is nearing completion, and submitted to the Council of Ministers and Deputies. The benefit that this project will reduce the cost of transactions and reduces the carry cash, he said, adding that Iraq is on the verge of producing 6 to 12 million barrels of oil and this will impact on the development and raise the value of the Iraqi dinar. The adviser to the Iraqi Central Bank said the bank has achieved three things during the last stage, as the first building reserves from zero to $ 50 billion, within the past five years, reduce the price of the basic inflation from 34% to 4 or 3%, and achieved stability in the Iraqi dinar exchange. He was adviser to the CBI the appearance of Mohammed Saleh, said in an interview earlier the bank’s readiness to delete the zeros of the Iraqi currency, pointing out that those zeros that are added to the Iraqi currency during the last period formed a cluster of large cash amounted to 27 trillion Iraqi dinars. This is what they did the last 3 months during the sterilization process - readiness to delete the zeros, pointing out they added to the Iraqi currency a cluster of large cash amounted to 27 trillion Iraqi dinars. On the other hand Frank says making another point, revealed adviser to the CBI, said Iraq enter for the first time a system of payments between banks has been the transition to electronic clearing away from the hand and entered into by the six banks and the exchange of instruments between banks electronically and will link the smart card and credit system with the Central Bank. (Frank and Darline said no more thievery or stealing…FOR THE FIRST TIME they have been lifted of the chapter 7 in order to do this…There are 5 banks this happened with there. Reuters told us about the instruments…) Continued Shabibi wants this says Frank by saying that the central bank would be three years after the so-called Council of the payments – (Darline and Frank says this is what they have been paying contracts that are approved by the GOI and parliament and paying via the rate in the Budget), which sets protocols and is the infrastructure of Iraq. Previously (before in the past) specialists Iraqis in the field of economics that played down the impact of the central bank to delete zeros from the currency the purchasing power of the Iraqi dinar, also hopes the government from behind the move, as the view of researchers that the cost of lifting of the zeroes will be the biggest of its usefulness, given that the currency’s strength is measured by the stability of disbursement which is based on the strength of the productive sector can provide goods and services. (Darline says Shabibi has been saying they would do this and now this has happened.) Frank says the CBI is freezing funds that are related to the UN resolution – they are getting ready for TOMORROW said Darline – Maliki visited with a commercial bank today with an entourage.. The bank adviser said the appearance of Mohammed Saleh told the Kurdish news agency (Rn) that “the continued freeze on Iraqi assets by regional countries (including Kuwait) and international order is contrary to the UN resolution.” Saleh was referring to the UN resolution to lift Iraq from Chapter VII and raising the internationalism of the Trusteeship to the Iraqi funds. Iraq still owes Kuwait for more than twenty billion dollars in compensation for damage to the invasion in 1990, and paid 5 percent of its oil revenues to fulfill its obligations under UN Security Council resolutions. The UN Security Council issued in December last decisions signal the beginning of the dismantling of the sanctions on Iraq, calling for the normalization of relations between Iraq and Kuwait. Must confirm that the Iraqi government reiterated its recognition of Kuwait’s borders land and sea in a letter to the UN Security Council. Saleh added that “States that Iraqi funds Tjtdz not possess the legal arguments, because Iraq is a mechanism identical with the Paris Club agreement for the payment of trade creditors and prevent the manipulation of money in Iraq.” Iraq argues that Kuwait has frozen about a million and a half million dollars belonging to Iraqi Airways in Jordan, the Kuwaiti authorities, while stressing that it will not compromise or give up “for one penny” to the dues on Iraqi Airways. While appreciating the Iraqi funds frozen in Jordan and Lebanon is estimated at $ 7.8 billion, which prevent Iraq from using them year after the imposition of economic blockade in 1991. And Saleh said that “the central bank questioned this figure and believes that the continued freeze on Iraqi assets in a number of regional countries belonging to political reasons.” He said that Iraq does not object to payment of debt, but wants to protect it from manipulation by some trade creditors. The former Iraqi president Saddam Hussein ordered the invasion of Kuwait in 1990, and the effect of pushing Iraq to Kuwait billions of dollars of debt. Analysts say that the states of the Security Council tend to vote in favor of removing Iraq from the restrictions imposed on it for years, but Kuwait rejected it. The debt consists of Kuwait to Iraq of the losses suffered by the oil sector in Kuwait, in addition to the losses suffered by the government ministries and buildings during the invasion of Iraq. Baghdad says that Iraq still be subject to Chapter VII, “restricts the country and affect its independence.” http://www.aknews.com/ar/aknews/2/244288 Maliki is going to banks visiting and going to people to get cooperation.. [3:34:28 PM] Az Montana: Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki makes surprise visit to the Commercial Bank of Iraq. Within the framework of field trips undertaken by the Prime Minister to monitor the performance of work in different state institutions and fight corruption and irregularities that harm the economy and state building, sovereignty, today visited the Commercial Bank of Iraq. The information had indicated the presence of irregularities in certain transactions, which called on Prime Minister to the formation of a committee of the Ministry of Finance and Office of Financial Supervision and the Central Bank and the Integrity Commission and the Centre for Transparency and experts from banks, which emphasized in its report, the confluence of the reports of the Office of the Prime Minister about these irregularities subjected to monitoring and follow-up for a long time so that the report of the Committee based on real information, diagnostics and scientific objectivity. Has been ratified by the Prime Minister on the report of the Committee, and referred their findings to the judiciary to assume command of the discount. He stressed during his meeting with a cadre bank keen to strengthen the confidence of financial institutions of the State, in particular, a bank, and is achieved through arbitration standards of integrity in the transactions of the bank and the prosecution of offenses as they happen. The Prime Minister said that follow-up will include all officials and state institutions, without exception. Hillarious on Friday will be hosting a business forum with SR CEO’s regarding opportunities of THE NEW IRAQ… THIS IS BIG says Frank. Sec. Clinton The U.S. State Department will host on Friday a business forum with senior executives from major U.S. corporations to discuss opportunities in “the new Iraq.” Secretary of State Hillarious Clinton, who is to head the U.S. side, will deliver opening remarks at the forum. Deputy Secretary of State Tom Nides will moderate discussions between senior officials from the Departments of State, Treasury and Energy and the corporate executives. Senior Iraqi government officials will deliver remarks as well. The forum is convened at a time Iraq is eager to develop its economic potential after years of internal conflicts and economic isolation. As theUnitedStates transitions this year from a military-led to civilian-led partnership with Iraq, the State Department is leading a broad inter-agency effort to support U.S. companies looking to do business there. While businesses entering the Iraqi market continue to face hurdles, including a greatly improved but still difficult security environment, some positive developments, such as rising oil revenues, expected double-digit domestic economic growth, significant investments in infrastructure, and a stable democratic government point to the conclusion that Iraq represents a unique business opportunity with benefits for the United States and Iraq. The State Department wants to ensure that commercial opportunities in Iraq are not lost at this critical juncture. Some U.S. companies have seized opportunities in that war-torn country, but many more opportunities exist for additional U.S. involvement. In many cases, U.S. firms are well placed to bring their expertise to bear in the Iraqi market. Given America’s reputation for innovation and quality, Iraqi entrepreneurs are also anxious to partner with U.S. counterparts, the State Department said in a statement. USA Credit is going down – Darline says the know the IQD will be tied to the USD may not indeed be tied to the USD – She further states why did Obama visit the Queen for 2 days and he hates her and was not invited to the wedding and she hates him and he is kissing butt with the queen as this RV is PROBABLY going to be tied to the GBP and again she feels he went to be friends as this IQD may be tied to the GBP… England asked about Iraq’s credit rating as they wanted to apply for a grant… British Parliament: on Iraq access to global credit rating to finance its projects 02/06/2011 0:00 The member of the British House of Commons Nazim Zahawi, on Wednesday, Iraq to work to get a credit rating of an international grant and reliability of its projects and to be able to obtain international financing for investment projects that he wants to do in various fields, calling for strengthening economic relations with the United Kingdom and take advantage of its re- Iraq’s infrastructure. He said Zahawi, in a joint news conference with the President of the board of investment Sami Araji, the presence of that “it is essential that the Investment Authority, Iraq by giving priority to projects needed by the citizen, and then discuss with the international financial institutions on the financing of such projects through the adoption of the policy of return to Iraq classified as global credit grants and reliable enough for its projects and in order to encourage international companies to implement them. “ He added, “who stands up for the program for Iraq to the credit rating of the world, you must be a person with extensive experience in this area, and be is susceptible to negotiation and persuasion to get the best results,” adding that “after the talks continued out a roadmap for action between the governments of Iraq and the United Kingdom in the fields of economy. “ The Zahawi that “looked through future visits to Iraq to see progress in its own launch and completion of projects,” noting that British companies “had much experience in the field of construction and reconstruction are the projects that Iraq needs at the present time, especially in the areas of roads and bridges” . He pointed out that “London, which includes companies roots in the construction projects are also an international financial center equal to New York and this is what gives them the ability to fund major projects, because they represent no British banks, but international banks interested to work in Iraq through the financing of construction projects and investment projects in addition to side credit in the investment process. “ For his part, said the President of the board of investment Iraqi Sami Araji, “The presence of a member of the House of Commons Nazim Zahawi Iraqi origin, will help to develop economic relations between Iraq and the United Kingdom during the financial expertise that will help Iraq open up wider prospects of working with British companies, particularly as it Member of the Committee on Business and Finance in the British Parliament. “ http://wp.me/pZC7o-8ng Darline says todays article on July 1 will sell State Bank of Vietnam has all state owned firm will sell their foreign currency to banks beginning July 1st to eliminate the use of foreign money in the domestic market…test steps come after Dong has lost more than 15% of its value over the US in a 2 year period – Central bank balance devalued the currency 4 times and failed to stop the bleeding. They need business from China and an RV of their currency CHINA got its first shipment of oil on Tuesday- they have the state of the art clean refinery’s and soldiers are lasered with the latest technology guarding the refinery’s… – Darline says that an article re: “O” selling one of our states to China, Frank said he will be in Toledo tomorrow due to the riverfront area being sold this weekend… 30-40% who lived here are gone in that area and “O” will talk to Toledo Major as they are working with China on our riverfront sale. Rush Limbaugh stated he stayed out of work due to a historical epic day yesterday on the 1st – and today he came to work he never did say why he was out – but we feel he was out as he signed a non-disclosure agreement says Darline- and he stated he was not at liberty to say why he was really out… A bank foreign department yesterday told one of our members that the rate is due to go up any day and check back…this person was a trusted member to tell us this. Iraq economy is starting from next June and a clear movement – CBI Mohammad Selah said the economy of Iraq starting next June movement and clear – the investment budget = 30% of budget and GDP and will bring about positive changes in trends in local markets…the economic currency for commerce will add stability to the dinar once they have the lower fills in their hands…Golden opportunity to invest from the oil resources to rebuild infrastructure and development The Arthurs of the Plan work with the CBI – not the GOI – who cares about the GOI now- NOT us = we watch the CBI. RECAP PER DARLINE Friday – a changing day in history for Iraq will begin tomorrow – will we see it? Will we see the WTO or Chapter 7 announced completed or the 3 ministers – it will be a changing day monetarily possibly if not stay tuned for Sunday-Monday… BOTTOM LINE FROM FRANK AND DARLINE: BING BAM BOOM between now and the 10th – would love to see it tomorrow, Friday, but let’s say between now and the

  18. This is an IMF structural benchmark for Iraq's financial development due end of June. They can't just push it back. The following is from the IMF's March 2011 country report for Iraq: Financial Sector 12. Financial inter-mediation is at a very low level in Iraq. A functioning banking sector is essential for the development of a strong private sector. We have begun to embark on our banking sector reform strategy: A critical step will be to complete the financial restructuring of the two largest state owned banks, Rafidain and Rasheed, based on their completed financial and operational audits. In this regard, we formed a Bank Reconciliation Unit that comprises technical level staff from the banks, the CBI and the Ministry of Finance, and with the assistance of Ernst and Young (who were the agents of the Ministry of Finance in the external debt restructuring process) to: (i) deal with all legacy external liabilities taking into account the government’s actions in the context of Iraq’s external debt restructuring (ii) identify and propose to write-off non-performing loans to defunct state-owned enterprises; (iii) propose a course of action for other remaining unreconciled accounts; and (iv) after the balance sheets have been cleaned up, revalue the remaining foreign currency denominated balance sheet items. The BRU will work under the supervision of the Restructuring Oversight Committee (ROC), consisting of the Minister of Finance, the Governor of the CBI, and the Chairman of the BSA. The BRU will send its recommendations for final approval to the respective boards of the two banks. Through this process, we aim to complete the restructuring of the balance sheets of Rafidain and Rasheed by end-June 2011 (a structural benchmark). Meanwhile, the Ministry of Finance will continue to work closely with the World Bank under its banking sector project to modernize these banks by moving ahead with the plans for their operational restructuring. These banks will operate on a fully commercial basis, on market terms, and the government will refrain from directing any lending. Decisions on the recapitalization of Rafidain and Rasheed will not be made until the restructuring of their balance sheets has been completed and adequate progress has been made in their operational restructuring, especially by establishing an appropriate governance structure and strengthening risk management and control functions. More generally, given the vulnerabilities these (and other) banks face due to operational risks, the CBI will continue to improve its oversight systems and monitor closely the activities of the banks, particularly during the transition process. The new set of prudential regulations for commercial banks, including those related to minimum capital requirements, liquidity risk, and anti-money laundering, are being implemented. Work on the relevant reporting tables for the banks will be completed soon in consultation with the IMF and other technical assistance providers. Under the auspices of the World Bank banking sector project, we have conducted a full assessment of the banking supervision department, and this report will form the basis of improving this department. http://www.imf.org/external/pubs/ft/scr/2011/cr1175.pdf

  29. I posted this on my facebook a couple days ago. hooboy, was that a fun time. I actually support this. It seems fair enough. The state reimburses you for the test if the results are clean, if not...well you get no welfare. I don't think its too much to ask that if you intend to live off the US' dime that you stay clean. I seem to do alright staying employed and out of jail and I don't do drugs. I'm sure there are plenty of folks on welfare who don't do drugs. I don't see how this expectation is too much to ask of the general public. Drugs are illegal, you shouldn't do them if you're living off food stamps of if you race robot giraffes around your own private stadium. To expect folks to be and stay clean is something so basic, to argue against it seems silly to me.

  30. I am not an economics major,experienced in trading,nor do I have a bunch of expensive letters after my name. I am a blue collar,normal person with only life experience. I am somewhat of a newbie, but have followed this site for over a year now. I'm sure this topic has been discussed before,no, I do not have time to go through every old post to see if it has. I ask the DV family for forgiveness in advance if it has,cause this can be a tough crowd. Definition of a scam is: a confidence game,or other fraudulent scheme,especially for making a quick profit. Definition of a speculation: investments involving high risk,but also the possibility of high profits. The Iraqi Dinar is a REAL currency, issued by a REAL country,used by REAL people on a daily basis. That in itself proves it is not a scam. Now, if you hold fake or counterfeit dinar then yes, you got scammed. If you wake up every morning and hang on every word of egotistical,attention getting, pathological liars that sprinkle fairy dust in your coffee about how you will wake up one morning and be an instant millionaire, then guess what... YOU SCAMMED YOURSELF! I REPEAT YOU SCAMMED YOURSELF! Yes pumpers scam people on a daily basis, using someones emotions,hopes and dreams to make you spend money you don't have on a SPECULATAION, but that does not make the Iraqi Dinar a scam. It has only allowed people to be scammed, and pumpers and scammers should be ashamed of themselves. This investment is a SPECULATION. Meaning that an undervalued currency has the potential to increase in value based on goods and services. Its actually not that high of a risk because the cost of the currency is relatively low versus the potential outcome. Thats all this investment is,period. Do I believe in the dinar? Of course I do or I wouldn't be here. Will it revalue,lop,re-denominate or some combination of either.....sure it can. However, no amount of hopes,dreams,pumping,or speculating is going to change the outcome. Take time to educate yourself,research, and come up with your own conclusion. Listen to people like Adam,Scooter,Keep,Mr. Rich,doc31,Bang and others because they do the research,have the experience, and base most of their conclusions on facts,articles,and what is presented,not what isn't. I must also thank the MODS for all they do. This site is second to none and I am much more educated because of the time and effort,debates,and articles that are brought here for us to enjoy. NEWBIES: Don't let this investment keep you in fantasy land. Don't cry about how Iraq should have done this by now. Stop complaining about your feelings getting hurt because people tell you the truth. Spend as little time as you can here so you don't miss out on life. Don't spend more money than you can afford to lose,don't let this investment change you, and most of all don't let yourself get scammed by a speculation. Enjoy the ride, learn what you can, love your life. As clones would say on the Jim Rome show....I'M OUT. God bless.

  32. To Qman: I'm sure you have considered the fact that we all have the priviledge of the freedom of speech, and I happen to agree. I'm no fan of Obama, but we also must consider that this site is owned by private individual(s) and is not a public site rather intended for the exchange of information regarding the Iraqi Dinar. The owners of the site also have the freedom to allow or disallow posts as they see fit. I'm certain it's nothing personal to you, but you can appreciate their position. Just sayin'. Any of us can be as patriotic as we wish. Some here haven't been convinced yet of the correctness or the error of installing this particular president. While posts like the one you put up is gratifying if you want to promote a change in the administration it is sure to draw fire from the opposition. Thus, while the goal here is a drive toward the exchange of ideas and thoughts regarding a particular topic, it was not designed as an exchange or blog for political rivalries. Hope you can see through the smoke and allow the mods to rule rather than your leaving the site.

  33. I understand making money and selling advertisement space on a website but when you are watching if a investment as ours becomes fruitful and writing books about it and the RV, then why allow an ad about our investment being a SCAM. It causes me to have second thoughts about this investment and the website. It kind of lends me to think the site has other motives behind it and is only trying to make as much money as possible before this completely goes bust. JMO and I hope I'm very wrong

  34. Last night as I watched Glenn Beck I was inspired by his guests. They were Holocaust survivers and told their stories of how they survived the war, many with the help of Schindler. Both Schindler and Soros were contemporaries at the the time. Soros sold his soul and became a traitor to his own people. He ratted on them and gladly gave them up to the Nazis and many were killed. Even today Soros has no remore of his past actions (See youtube). On the other hand, Schindler, a wealthy secular Jew sold everything he had to to save as many Jews from the furnaces. The rest is history! Today Soros continues to finance Marxists organizations such as NARAL, National Lawyers Guild, Media Matters, People for the American Way, Project Vote, Sojourners, and dozens more. He seeks the destruction of Israeal and has visited the White House at least seven times this past year. He is a favorite guest of Obama. Why??? Soros has collapsed major currencies for his own self serving interests and now is attempting to do the same with the US dollar. Geithner has his ear close to Soro's whispers. Any wonder why we are headed in the direction we are in?? My point in all this is ths. Watch what goes on behind the scenes. Can you trust a person like Soros who has the ear of this administration and some in Congress. If the chips are down will YOU stand up to be a Schindler or a Soros?

  36. Actually, "Off Topic Posts" is a forum where anyone can go and present the "topics of their choice" that don't concern the "dinar". You might want to "read" some of the posts, they are pretty interesting. Qman is very well respected on this site, and he writes from his "heart". He gives us a few moments away from the "dinar", as do most of the other members who post in the "Off Topic Post". I am sure the "moderators" of this site close down posts that are offensive and hurtful...they do a good job. I am greatful for the chance to be part of this group. There are some wonderful members here.

  38. Our world is upside down. Doctors destroy our health, lawyers destroy justice, the government destroys our freedom, the mainstream media destroys information, and our religions destroy our spirituality. We are constantly at war with each other, and mankind is becoming more wicked and evil as time marches on. Now read it again....and again. They are ALL correct period. Now just use some time to relax and think about why these are all true.

  39. Thank you Steve for your post. I am one of the - probably - many who agree with you. As I was praying this morning (God might call it "ordering") the RV to happen, the thought passed through my mind to simply put this in my "God box" and allow Him to handle it in due time. I really do not have to worry about it today. Thank you again for making it clearer to me.

  40. "God Himself is hindering the Announcement. Who other than God could give all of the Guru's on all of the sites a 100% failure rate?" Well Steve E, I for one am willing to stick up for the Guru's and say that they're perfectly capable of a 100% failure rate without any help !

  41. And unless the dinar revalued, why would the foreign currencies need to be revalued? If the rate stays the same, at 1170, they already know the rates of exchange.

  42. Several times that I am on this site I see ads that say "DO NOT BUY IRAQI DINAR! Free Report Exposes Biggest Scam. The newest one I have seen is from www.Sovereign-Investor.com Others I've seen state something about the Iraqi Dinar being a scam. Sorry if this has been asked and/or addressed before but why are those ads here? Just find this very odd. Thanks in advance for enlightenment.

  44. I don't read every post out there so I'm not sure what you're talking about. I don't understand how you can make a blanket statement about locking every Obama comment posted. Would you explain that to me please. I have read some that the race card is played and I don't agree with it. I have read some that are pro Obama or con Obama and I don't agree whole heartedly with them either. It's so easy to hammer everyone then to handle it the way it should be handled, the ones who cross the line can be dealt with. So do it the right way and handle business with them, not shut down every post that has something to do with Obama or what you may find offensive, all that will accomplish (in my opinion) is people will begin posting "Obama" positive or negatives with some other title. Our gov't is good at hammering everyone instead of handling business with the folks that need to be dealt with. Let me offer another solution, get rid of the off topic post and keep it to dinar news, rumors or opinions, get rid of the off topic post if it's causing a problem. I have stated earlier, and you can find out from another MOD that, I pay to support this site and I would appreciate it if, the MODs or any of us, would exercise caution at offending people and driving them from this site. They may be a part of the post RV plan and my understanding is that the more we have involved the better our opportunities for investment post RV. If your flexng your muscles because your a MOD then stop it! There is a better way to handle this. If you're posting things to purposely offend folks then that needs to stpop as well. Part of the problem in America today is we're told that religion and politics starts trouble, that its best not to discuss it. That is part of the problem, if we never discuss things with people that have a different view point then we won't learn how to discuss topics like that properly. That is when we get into the name calling and the threats and other junk that comes with it, it is a lack of maturity and I for one am mature enough and adult enough to discuss things the right way, which in my opinion is allowing another adult to have a voice. By the way, since the attacks on America (911), if someone threatens another person it is a crime, "terroristic threats", and I don't believe you want to be involved in that, especially if you're the one threatening, I know tha I don't want to be on either end of that kind of communication. So I'm asking you K98nights and any other Mod to carefully consider prior to locking down a topic. I in turn will be considerate of what I post as well. As a christian I don't want to purposely offend anyone and if I do or have then let me know, I usually don't have a problem asking forgiveness. God gives grace to those who humble themselves and I for one need all of the grace I can get! Have a blessed evening Pappy,
