I get this important information about what delarue company have done from year 2003 - 2012. As we all see in 2003, De La Rue confirms that it is in discussions to assist in the production of banknotes for Iraq. That means that Iraq already printed the first banknotes in 2003 (that is what we have and hold now as current banknotes )through the delarue company. And, then from 2004 – 2012, delarue company have not announced until now that Iraq want to print a new banknote as we all hear that Iraq wants to RD their currency. That means Iraq has not intended to RD their currency ( remove 3 Zero/ LOP ) and GOI just talk and talk to scare away all dinar investor, like us, and doesn’t have any intention to RD at all ( this is what we all want it very badly). And, this is a good news for all of us as dinar investor and the more we all hear that GOI wants to RD very often, the closest we are to the RV. Have a faith to all of us and be optimistic. Eventhough, this is a good news, JUST REMEMBER : DO NOT BUY MORE THAN YOU CAN AFFORD TO LOSE. DON’T BE GREEDY . GO RV to all of us. THE LINK : http://www.delarue.com/Media/LatestNews/2009/

thank you all again for helping me with multiple translations of this article. it took me a while to formulate a clear opinion of what is being conveyed and i finally came to MY conclusion of things. for anyone interested here it goes. The article in the OP was composed by the author, an expert in finance and economics, in staunch admonishment to the country of the dangers about to take place to their country. Her views are in direct contrast to those of Iraqi Officials for she sees these "investment opportunities" as anything but positive for Iraqi's economic future. She believes that Iraq is being sold to the global banking cartel and will lead to the enactment of laws facilitating these companies to take over the Iraqi banking sector and eventually core projects taking place in Iraq. she is an expert bso'on, finance and economy that Iraqi officials view on investment opportunities in the financial sector would pave to sell Iraq to foreign banking sector, leading to the enactment of laws to facilitate foreign companies to penetrate the Iraqi banking sector, identify core projects to project penetration. Continuing, the huge investment effort into the banking sector being solicited for in London will divert financial attention from developing other sectors in the State/Country toward banks and the private sector. Funds that would have gone toward the public institutions will be spent toward developing the private banking entities. The sources, speaking Agency (UR) and did not want to disclose their identity, The process of investing in the Iraqi banking sector will turn Iraqi State development effort from the Central Bank to banks and private financing and inundating the private sector debt, in addition to laying the foundations for the development of private banks at the expense of the Government and State funds. Because of the current barriers preventing investors from contributing to the financial sector, public money must be diverted from encouraging a productive marketplace toward the propping up the banks hence killing all of the liquidity for the sake of a robust banking industry. This will dry up any funds for developing infrastructure projects for the sake of the banking industry causing the infrastructure to be funded by foreign investment which will lead to foreign ownership of Iraq's infrastructure. Sources said that the barriers existing in investors in the financial sector will lead to liquidity of suction Street and productive market for banks and destroy any chance for the future to use liquidity in the industrial sector, transforming the infrastructure project financing to the banking sector and linking infrastructure foreign ownership. Finally she proposes that this will destroy the ISX (Iraqi Stock Exchange) as foreign ownership and saturation into the country will leave Iraqi markets destitute. The foreigners will pretty much suck all life out of the country. She said that such a plan if, will be by sources, will make the Baghdad stock market open, breaking by foreign firms, in return for the scenario that happened in South-East Asia in the 1980s and caused the bankruptcy of the States. She discusses the future dealings to come afterwards will be a flock of investors drawn to the prospects of opportunities in the country will lead to citizen laws being extended to foreign companies who will want property rights. The insurance sector will become largely developed because of this. Then will be the privatization of the health industry in the next phase of selling off the people's nation. This is not the first meeting of its kind where we have seen Iraqi people's national wealth sold off to foreigners. And drawn to the prospective investment will develop the insurance sector to link citizen laws force foreign companies to pay to have a property or liquidity in preparation for the privatization of the health sector and service in the next phase of meetings. According to sources, that this Conference be held in, knock (Grange Tower Bridge Hotel) situated in thePrescot Street45 Not the first of its kind to sell Iraqi riches, was preceded by the Conference on 7 and 8 September 2011 to sell the mineral wealth under the banner of investment, and after a Conference on 18 and 19 April 2012 to sell refineries. And learned (UR) that a high-level Iraqi delegation will attend the Conference, and includes among its members both rose Nuri Shaways Qusay Suhail and Sinan Al-Shabibi, Haidar Al-Abadi Ali Yousif Al-Shukri Al-Issawi, and Sami Al-araji Uploader and owner Mohammed daraji hamdiya dry and the appearance of Mohammed Saleh. THE ADVERSE VIEWPOINT by Economist Majid - Majid answers this view quite mockingly. He states that privatization of the banking sector can't even happen until there is first a restructuring of the Publicly owned banks. And that privatizing the state banks is so far away from realization because the current political structure will never allow it. Economist: political will hinder the Rafidain Bank restructuring and rational 16/09/2012 11: 12: 00Baghdad/Nina/Economist Majid mock it now fears privatization of the banking sector, but may appear after you perform the Rafidain Bank restructuring and rational. He said national Iraqi news agency/Nina/today: "privatization of State banks is not the fundamental issue, which cannot be privatized unless implementation of the restructuring of the Rafidain Bank and Rasheed," Noting that the decisions and recommendations were issued regarding the restructuring but the political will hinder restructuring of banks. Furthermore, he explains that implementation of the restructuring is a good thing because it will improve the performance of the banks as they will be regulated under Basel policies as opposed to what is allowed to take place currently namely the lack of good governance and collusion. Most importantly the banks will be able to extend their scope from national to global. That Basel provisioning is exactly what the banking sector needs because it will lay good management foundations and help banks provide better services to its customers. He said: "If the implementation of the restructuring that will improve dramatically the performance of banks by relying on decisions of the Committee on Basel I, II and III which supports separation of the Department capital and adopt good governance and that the most important organizational restructuring Iraqi banks to global banks." The Basel Committee is a coalition of large international banks working to lay the foundations for bank management to function properly and provide better services to its customers. MY OPINION - I'm with Economist Majid who is not stuck with a small minded mentality concerning economics. The world is now global and it is death to you if you don't adapt with it. Iraq is already far behind as Hussein kept the country purposely in the dark ages not even allowing mobile phones to the citizenry. This is a lot of what Shabibi has been up against where engineers and electricians and dentists turned politicians want to debate with him against how to transform an economy from a loser to a winner. The words of the lady economist are not wasted though. She is right in certain facts and this is good for us investors. Iraq, and according to the Strategic Framework Agreement, has already agreed to undergo massive reforms and encourage the foreign investor into the country. I for one am looking forward to what comes out of this meeting in London. And for those who don't realize the importance of London, it is pretty much the belly of the beast. It is the birth place of the Central Banking Cartel. Shabibi wouldn't dare go there with a underrated plan. He is going to present to them something of massive proportion. Shabibi is ready to see Iraq explode into the economic center of the Middle East. Be blessed my friends. And thank you all again for sharing and helping me formulate my own opinion of what these events mean.

Real Americans like the ones that built America. Like the ones that wrote the Constitution, to limit government. They didn't sit around on the porch waiting for a government check from England. Real Americans that built businesses and employed real Americans that wanted to be independant and go as far as they can in the greatest country the world has seen. Real Americans that gave up their Mother country to become a FREE REAL AMERICAN because of the advantages of what America's freedom and CAPITALIST system had to offer. Instead of staying in the socialist, communist countries dependant on the government to tell them how to live, what they can and can't do, because they got handouts from the government. Real Americans with the can do attitude of being self sufficient and proud of making it on the own. Not the ones that are being enslaved and beholden to the government, just to simply survive.This cradle to the grave, take care of me Daddy government attitude will turn America into Greece, Yet, some idiots don't understand and even worse, don't care, that it will eventually kill this country.We are already in way over our heads, because of this mental disorder called Social Progressivism. All you have to do is look at Greece to see where we're headed under Obama. Socialism has been tried around the world and has failed every time. It keeps people poor. We can debate what got us into the recession, but we will never agree on that one. But, here we are 4 years later and it has not been fixed under this administration. Only excuses that it's someone elses fault. Ronald Reagan fixed the problem he "inherited". He didn't cry about it being Carters fault. Reagan was a "REAL AMERICAN". He understood what it is to be an American. As did J.F. Kennedy, another real American. I would bet most graduating students don't even know what Kennedy meant when he said, "Ask not what your country can do for you - ask what you can do for your country". Some probably don't even know he said it. In my opinion, anyone who doesn't see the difference in the America we have today, from the America we once were, have been brainwashed and don't even know what the real America is.

I think it is funny that Adam has always said that there was a good chance that it would come out at $.10 and he caught a lot of flack from the other sites that were saying it would come out at $3.00 - $12.00. Now it sounds like most all are jumping on the $.10 to start bandwagon!! Thanks Adam for always trying to keep us level headed ($.10) when it come to this crazy investment!!

Rayzur, from the CBI auctions over the past 6 month, I don,t believe they still have 29T in circulation. This news is not for the average Iraqi. This news is for the speculator. JMO. They have not and will not release the their true numbers until this is done.

Bullcrap what he said was the truth. But there`s a lot of Americans out there that don't want to hear the truth. Anyone soaking up GOVT handouts and are able-bodied most likely wont vote for Romney. In there poor uneducated minds they truly believe that land of the free means Free housing, Free food, Free health-care, They need to be educated so they understand that Govt handouts is a form of Oppression designed to control the masses.

[carpentersr] I think a conference like this is always an opportunity to " say something" or present something... sort of like a companies earnings conference call where you will find out something new the company has been working on or a new contract of some sort [shredd] but for many financial institutions to invest or participate in a govt bond [shredd] they gotta have an internationally traded currency [campdav] WOWZA [shredd] doesnt have to be "strong" necessarily [campdav] Huge [shredd] but internationally traded [shredd] thats a fact jack [grashopa] convertable [shredd] right [shredd] see, many of our accounts at the bank trade mutiple currencies [shredd] and multiple denominated securities [shredd] bond [shredd] stock [shredd] trusts [shredd] equities and so on [shredd] and they can legally pariticipate in iraqs govt bonds [shredd] but only [shredd] and ONLY [shredd] if it is an internationally traded currency [shredd] huge [shredd] this conference [shredd] will set the global investment expectation [shredd] and the possible gains are huge [shredd] i mean look at what backs it [shredd] oil [shredd] the reserves we've seen grow [shredd] the monetary strength is there [shredd] that's what investors at this conference are looking at [shredd] and already know exists in Iraq [shredd] and they have confidence [shredd] and thats when we will see them eat up these bonds this article is talking about it. [shredd] Also, do you understand what a bond is....i mean behind the scenes? [shredd] It's Iraq selling it's debt [shredd] promising to repay [shredd] interest.....that's gravy to the investors [shredd] bonds have been getting a bad rap for quite a while [shredd] especially sovereign (country) bonds [shredd] so, for Iraq to be issuing govt bonds is huge [shredd] also, in the bond market [shredd] in most cases [shredd] bonds aren't brought to market until the underwriter and the issuer (in this case, Iraq) [shredd] know there is appetite for the bond [shredd] so, again, [shredd] this is huge [shredd] why? cuz the interest has already been expressed! [shredd] investor interest, demand and appetite steer the economby [shredd] economy [shredd] don't believe me? take a look at the global financial crisis [shredd] more specifiacally, the housing market [shredd] which most say is how it all started in the first place [shredd] what drove that insane mess? [shredd] it wasn't the banks [shredd] it was investor demand [shredd] investor appetite [shredd] they were seeing amazing returns [shredd] I was paying many of them! I know this! [shredd] they were getting 14% + [shredd] that is insane [shredd] so, my point is [shredd] investor demand and appetite drives investment [shredd] and before debt comes to market [shredd] like govt bonds [shredd] there has to be faith in that demand [shredd] now, bring us to this week's conference [shredd] it all comes to the table, right? [shredd] look at the agenda http://www.iraqfinance.co.uk/ [shredd] buyers are looking at the showcase of Iraq's investment opportunity [shredd] so, that article above is great, it really is [shredd] i always knew that when Iraq was about to break out into the market, I'd know what to look for since I've worked with this kind of stuff for over 10 years. So nice to see it in the news! [shredd] Shredd - out

Will open the Baghdad Stock Exchange and infiltrated .. Conference in London will turn Iraq into a bank to finance the bankrupt states Version 2 has been read once Author: the future of Iraq 17/09/2012 12:00 am BAGHDAD / future Iraqi parliamentary sources said that a high-level Iraqi delegation will attend a conference on investment in the banking sector and banks in Iraq to be held in the British capital London. Sources indicate that the conference will make Iraq a bank to finance the rescue bankrupt economies and banks in Europe and the United States, as is the case with the GCC banking sector. The sources also indicated that if this plan has, will make the Baghdad market securities exposed, and infiltrated by foreign companies, in return for a scenario that occurred in Southeast Asia in the eighties and caused the bankruptcy of those countries. http://www.almustakbalpaper.net/ArticleShow.aspx?ID=27774

Kap and ennorste pointed out that it would come out low and by their fiscal year in beginning of 2013 when the process of deleting the 3 zeroes begins they must be at par with the USD and that makes total sense to me. Now will this play out? i dont know, but once companies see that they raised the value and they are letting it float then it will shoot up no doubt companies will be pouring in and after this conference im sure good things are coming our way. All nations will come to her, kings of all nations and Babylon shall RISE again!!! it is written.

BAGHDAD / Aswat al-Iraq: Free Iraqiya Bloc Alia Nsaif today called to activate Iraqi diplomacy during the UN's 67th session to relieve Iraq from the Security Council's Chapter VII. In a statement released by her bloc, Nsaif confirmed the necessity to activate Iraq diplomatic efforts during the coming UN session. She called to build "positive relations with the large powers and present to them the real picture of the new Iraqi state, which does not necessitate keeping Iraq under Security Council's Chapter VII mandate." The coming UN session is to be held today, 18 September, 2012. RM (TP)/SR http://en.aswataliraq.info/%28S%28e1spv2nhl1jeizqp4rjfsviz%29%29/Default1.aspx?page=article_page&id=150549&l=1

Good Morning DV family, just asking for some prayers in my direction. As some of you know I have been caring for my parents who both have health issues. My father was admitted in the hospital early yesterday morning. First of all he has congestive heart failure and emphysema. His weight has dropped to 117, his height is 5'7", he's skin and bones. His blood pressure is low and dehydrated. Doctors will be doing test today to see what is the cause of the weight loss. Hopefully we have him home in a day or two. God works in mysterious ways, this may be a rough challenge, but he has soothed me through this heartache by allowing me to be focus on my parents concerns first and at the same token, taking my mind off my hubby, who is in the middle of all this middle east turmoil. I know that I would be a nervous wreck if I was trying to focus on both. Oh, don't get me wrong, hubby is deep in my heart concerns, but guess what I don't feel overwhelmed. So Heavy I would call this a God wink. Thanks for your prayers in advance. Now off to the hospital I go.

The RNC declaration of war, and the coming revolution Liberty & Tyranny September 3, 2012 By: Ken LaRive Liberty & Tyranny Author's note: Yesterday I was returning a lawn mower to my good friend and mentioned what I had seen in Tampa. He said, "I think they chose the right man, and I don't want to talk politics. Romney is the right man for the job, and that's it." This morning, before the sun came up, this letter poured from me. I've decided to exchange his name for "Dear America," and uncharacteristically publish this in its entirety. What went on at the GOP convention is nothing short of a declaration of war. It is the powerful who would do anything to say in power, even destroy America. In just a few moments, they destroyed the Republican Party, and insured that Obama would get a second term. They are Neocons, the right's Progressives, and they together control both sides of the isle. The following is my own declaration, in my quest for liberty, and I know now after going to Paul Fest, that I am not alone. September 3, 2011 Give me Liberty. Dear America, Apparently, my explanatory talents are not one of oration, but of writing. I am a prolific writer with 340 published as the Lafayette Examiner for the last 3.7 years. I consider you a close friend, and yet we find ourselves at odds and divided by the political process we now find ourselves in. What we face in America's future is indeed a daunting challenge, and it seems at this time that only a few Americans understand the need to wake up. This "liberty" movement, is however, growing, and those who finally see the road ahead, is shouting it from the roof-tops. Liberty! Most don't seem to grasp the gravity of what happen at the GOP in Tampa. The RNC changed the rules at the very last minute, and seated their own representatives, displacing duly elected delegates from each state. They made it impossible for Dr. Paul to be nominated from the floor. It means that we the people no longer have the power to promote change. Never again can a grass-root movement have a voice in the process, and the candidate will be chosen for us without consent. It means we are now complete slaves to the system, without a voice. It is the same reason Obama is now our president. You told me that the greatest Republican President was Ronald Reagan. If these rules had been implemented just prior to that election Ronald Reagan would not have been nominated, nor would have John F. Kennedy, the greatest Democrat who ever lived. The reason most don't understand Dr. Paul's message is because they get all information from the liberal newspaper, and the black box who are owned and controlled by the same conglomerate media. Only 3 percent of Americans read books, and most of it is fiction... We do not have a free press in America. America has been betrayed, and yet the majority of people have no inkling of this. We will now have more preemptive war without congressional approval. We will now have socialized medicine along with a welfare state, and it will be called Obamacare or Romnycare. America is now socialistic. The Federal Reserve will continue printing money out of thin air; big government will continue telling the states what to do and many other legislations like TARP will enslave us, and the NDAA and Patriot Act will insure a police state based on the War Act will be permanent, and in the process, due process will no longer exist. Our constitution is now ignored, and the progressives are trying to legislate, along with the UN, to take away our guns, just like they have done to our allies in EUROPE, and Australia, and because of this there will be not only a violent resistance in America, but in that process a World War 3, as the military industrialist complex, owned by an international banking cartel, will bomb IRAN. Men like me will be dead in the streets or interned in FEMA camps. And so, as you are my friend, we find ourselves on the opposite side in this conflict. It is a conflict I would and most likely will die to defend, and it is evident that you do not understand the dire gravity of this situation. I will not submit to anything that tramples on my constitution and bill of rights. When we became soldiers we made an oath to uphold it. I still remember that Oath, do you? I lived by that oath my entire life, and would die to defend it. Would you? You fought in WW2 to protect America, just as I did in Vietnam, and yet, it was during your generation that Marxism began strangling us from the inside, and even now Americans just doesn't get it. They didn't, because they are too comfortable watching football and propaganda from the black box, too distracted, lulled into complacency, and that was intentional. It is indeed a science. We now live in a totalitarian state, and we the people have no voice left. Your generation did not stand up when it was taken from us, and it is lost. I have awakened, and some educated youth have too, and yet we are slapped in the face because of it. Belittled in our efforts to take our country back, and our attempts to reinstate the Constitution and Bill of Rights are thwarted by the same people who swore to uphold them. So brain-washed by the mass media, they do not even take the effort to understand it, and I find that a lot to swallow. I am so disappointed, so betrayed by a system that binds my hands, my mind, and my children's minds, and I am surrounded by ignorant and lazy men and women who polish their collars with pride. I will not be enslaved, and just as I was prepared to give my life for my country blindly at 19, so will I now risk everything at 63, educated and awake, for the righteous cause of liberty. The Ron Paul supporters comprise just 10 percent of the population, the same percentage that actually fought in the American Revolution. They are so animated because they see the truth of this matter, and the gravity of the situation. While our oaths were forgotten, our children are now slaves with a 16 trillion dollar debt, with a lost Republic no longer controlled by the people, and the Republic's rule of law that was implemented by our founders to protect us, is obliterated. We will sir, as a nation, get exactly what we deserve... Abortions on demand paid for with our tax dollars, (where 52 percent of Christians voted for Obama), socialized medicine in a welfare state, the Patriot Act forever that thwarts or liberty and privacy, never ending war to expand imperialism for corporate profit, and the NDAA that strangles our civil rights. All of this, was brought into existence by Romney and other Neocons who voted the same as Obama Progressives, and yes, abortion too. Who is backing Obama and Romney are the same... Why do you think the NDAA was passed on New year's night in 2010? When no one was there to vote against it. It is traitorous. If anyone would actually read the NDAA, or the Patriot Act, it would become evident, but the football season is coming, and dancing with the stars, and most likely they never will. Isn't that the truth? Here we have a group of enlightened men and women who want to revive our constitution, our bill of rights, and they are maligned! Why? Because they oppose and threaten the corruption that control us, and that sir, threatens trillion siphoned from our blood, sweat and tears, by taxation, and what cannot be stolen from us, is printed out of thin air, two trillion in the last year alone. We cannot even pay for the interest they are charging us, without printing more. Slavery, that is America. Not realized, that ten percent... is America's true hope. So far this revolution is of an intellectual nature, with the attempt to reinstate our Republic. If this is not allowed by the powers that be, every other means will be used. If another civil war is to be fought, so be it. I will not have my children enslaved, and if our prior generation would have thought as such, we would not be in this fine mess. The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. Thomas Jefferson I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them. Thomas Jefferson All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent. Thomas Jefferson I hope we shall crush in its birth the aristocracy of our monied corporations which dare already to challenge our government to a trial by strength, and bid defiance to the laws of our country. Thomas Jefferson When we get piled upon one another in large cities, as in Europe, we shall become as corrupt as Europe. Thomas Jefferson A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercises, I advise the gun. While this gives moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball, and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be your constant companion of your walks. Thomas Jefferson Do you want to know who you are? Don't ask. Act! Action will delineate and define you. Thomas Jefferson I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. Thomas Jefferson Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason, than that of blind-folded fear. Thomas Jefferson Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude. Thomas Jefferson My reading of history convinces me that most bad government results from too much government. Thomas Jefferson I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just; that his justice cannot sleep forever. Thomas Jefferson Your friend, Ken LaRive

9-17-2012 DinarDoggie: RV and Float, Removing the Confusion. I realize that no matter how clearly I write this the confusion will continue. So, drop whatever is confusing you, read, and learn. Nothing has changed. The plan of action has not changed. The plan of implementation of the Dinar has not changed. All this huge whirlwind of confusion that is taking place right now about a floating Dinar has not changed anything, period. There are so many issues and there is so much absolute confusion out there in just the last couple of days that it is going to be difficult to sort this out so I will just start. There has always been only one plan to introduce the new Dinar into the Iraqi economy. Only one, period. People, stop dreaming up other stuff! The plan was and is to de-dollarize the economy by replacing dollars with Dinars over a period of time and then let the Dinar seek its own value on the international market by the normal means, i.e., to let it value itself up on the foreign exchange markets. That's it. There isn't much more to it than that. I mean, give me a break here. You act like you have never heard of floating a currency before! You act like this is big news. It isn't. In order to make it feasible and attractive within the domestic Iraqi economy the Dinar needs to value domestically at about parity or just above parity with the currency of circulation now which is the dollar. Is that difficult to understand? Why? Because the local economy needs to remain as stable as possible and then as local confidence builds and the value of the Dinar goes up the people learn to trust the banking system and have confidence in their new economy. Now to a new topic of complete confusion and consternation, the so-called, "facilitator". Yes, folks, somebody or some firm or some banking institution has to guide the introduction and rise of the new currency. What on earth do you think? Do you think that it is just thrown out into the wind and everything somehow turns out just fine? Come on, use your heads! This process must be guided and it has always been part of the same plan, the original plan, and the only plan to introduce and value up the new currency for the domestic economy of Iraq and its regional rise to significance, not to mention its rise in importance as a new reserve petro-currency. Yes, petro-currency! (I just coined a new phrase in case you didn't notice.) Because the new way of conducting petro-biz in the world is the allow several new petro-currencies to replace the old petro-dollar with a new and powerful group of petro-currencies that float against one another thus establishing their relative purchasing power. It is going to get more complicated so just hang on. And, remember, stop inventing scenarios that never existed and do not exist now. Please! The value of the domestic Dinar is NOT THE SAME as the value of our Dinars which we hold OUTSIDE of the domestic Iraqi economy. The entire idea that our value must be the same as the rate established by the facilitator at introduction, etc. is NONSENSE! Why? (I have explained this so many times that it makes my head spin to do it again.) Here is the very simple reason: the fate and destiny of our physically held petro-Dinars is that they will be bought up by our treasury for later redemption against delivery of oil at about $33 per barrel over a long period of time, period. It's a treaty, a done deal, the spoils of war. That's all there is to it folks, end of story. Therefore, the banks and other purchasers of our petro-Dinar look at them as investments. They will buy them up and then re-sell them for a higher amount and they will eventually be held as already described. On the way up through the financial system they will re-hydrate the economy with liquidity that will be available for normal commercial purposes. Therefore, you have the best of all worlds here: you have a domestic Iraqi RV as set by the facilitator about about $1, you have an upward float over a specified and controlled period of time so that the Dinar can value up on the international markets, and you have a completely independent market of physically held petro-Dinars held by petro-Dinarians who will sell their notes into the system at a higher value because they will be worth, in reality, $33 each at the governmental level for the purchase of oil at about $33 per barrel. Now the complete confusion will be begin again. Why? Because so many of you have zero understanding of the most simple economic concepts in the world. You confuse definitions and imagine all kinds of scenarios that do not now and never will exist. For instance, somebody tried to compare the opening value of the Dinar at 10 cents which is the way it happened for Kuwait. That's when the confusion began! It was a COMPARISON, not a statement of fact. But you people can't seem to get it right. Examples are examples, not facts. Read more carefully.

Romney spoke the truth and its driving the libs crazy.

really A negative mark, on passing on info, amd there is not response to the post. well I guess if I am going to get a negative then maybe I should do something to deserve it. there have a good night

Think about it.......Romney is up against an incumbant president with the bully pulpit and an accomplice media jumping to discredit him at every turn. Meanwhile, they (the media) shamefully cover up the truth about what is happening across the Middle East in a desperate attempt to keep Obama from any criticism. The true tragedy will be if the American people don't wake up and hold the mainstream media accountable. Were the roles reversed, Obama would fold like a cheap suit (apart from the fact that he would never have been elected in the first place without his palace guard media).

i see those dollar signs trinity Thanks for the post. I agree with Carello it seems as a win win situation for all parties that are invested and will be investing in Iraq. They are literally a gold mine

Here is another reason Veterans jobs bill stalls in Senate Direct quote Ran Paul preferred a Pakistani over our men and women. Bring Jobs Home? Senate Republicans Say, No Direct quote of article Nice attempt of rewriting history, and even implying everybody will believe a video without research.

and it is a win win. they are pretty much pulling out all stops on this reconstruction effort. it has been hindered due to security concerns in-country for far too long now. shabibi has found a way around the incompetence of maliki to get this country on track and is pushing for bank guaranteed loans. this is pretty much telling the foreign companies to take the necessary loans needed to rebuild iraq and should political strife or terrorist attacks break out preventing you from completing the task, don't worry about being on the hook for repayment....the banks will cover. here is a clearly defined definition of bank guarentees: A guarantee from a lending institution ensuring that the liabilities of a debtor will be met. In other words, if the debtor fails to settle a debt, the bank will cover it. this thing is truly about to take place. we are going to see reconstruction efforts taking place in iraq in a major way!

That's exactly what I meant when I said "fully loaded".

When you see the word "INTEL" before a Guru's name they are not to be trusted. They are pumpers of the IQD. Let's do some math... You spend say a $1,000 USD to purchases about $900,000 IQD. Your spent from $50 to $100 USD per million IQD, which go to the traders. They complete national just 5,000 transactions the Traders and Pumpers earn from $250,000 to $500,000 USD, depending on the quantity purchased per order. Sound like a sweet deal to have a few pumpers to focus on putting our bogus "Intel" to drive our purchase patterns. Let's go RV

My addiction to this DV has caused a bit of anxiety over this software problem. Do you think the American medical association will ever list DV as a disease?

From that perspective that's true BillBill... but his press conference last night didn't make it any better. What he said of the 47% wasn't totally true. That 47% that do not pay federal income tax also includes folks who make over $2.17M who only pay capital gain taxes. Also, about 50% of the 47% make less than $20k a year or they're senior citizens who are not taxed on Social Security (and they shouldn't be). So there is working poor that is not looking for a handout. Most people who receive SS have already paid in.

Tuesday Sept 18, 2012 Iraq Said To Be Planning Currency Overhaul, Redenomination Iraq's 25,000-dinar banknotes apparently won't get you as far as they used to. BAGHDAD -- A senior Iraqi Central Bank adviser says the government has adopted a two-pronged plan to restructure the national currency in order to facilitate large transactions and make government accounts more efficient, RFE/RL's Radio Free Iraq reports. Mudhhir Muhammad Salih, a member of the bank's advisory panel, told RFE/RL on June 23 that in the short term, larger banknote denominations of the dinar would be issued to simplify major transactions. He said that because so many Iraqis still dealt mainly in cash, it was cumbersome to carry bags full of money to pay for expensive items like cars. The inconvenience leads people making such purchases -- as well as many entrepreneurs -- to use dollars for those kinds of transactions instead of dinars, something the government wants to end. He added that large denominations equivalent to around $100 would be issued to simplify major purchases, and new coins and lower denominations would be introduced for smaller transactions. In the longer term, Saleh said a redenomination was needed wherein three zeros will be dropped so that the 25,000-dinar banknote -- currently the largest denomination -- becomes a 25-dinar note. He said the change was inevitable, considering the economy is expecting high growth in the coming years with a planned increase in oil production to finance reconstruction projects. Saleh said there were currently some 29 trillion dinars in circulation in Iraq, represented by some 6 trillion banknotes of various denominations, most of them quite small. He said this also caused complications for the Central Bank and government, as well as commercial accounting departments. Saleh said the monetary-restructuring plan was drawn up with the help of foreign experts and financial institutions, including the International Monetary Fund, of which Iraq has been a member since 1945. The plan will soon be presented to the cabinet, which is expected to subsequently send a bill to parliament. Saleh noted that until 1980 the Iraqi dinar exchange rate was 1 dinar/$3.3 compared to $1/1,168 dinars now due to hyperinflation that occurred during the latter part of the late ousted leader Saddam Hussein's reign.

HUH??? To me, it means that the original contract from 2003 is still valid, and no changes to the currency have been ordered, thus there are no banknotes ready to be distributed without the three zeroes...

I hope you understand that in order for your theory to br true, all the uncirculated notes everyone here holds, and we're printed after 2004 would have to be counterfeit. Some folks apparently think that is a good thing, as they are throwing the green ones your way for telling them their dinar is no good.

GM, yota. This is so sad, even the Kurds burn our flag as we treat their diplomats now in Washington as royalty. How could a poorly mad movie incite such hatred? From what I understand over 90% of the people incited to violence have not even seen this movie. It just shows their anger is controlled by ignorance. I wonder how many marines they have flown into Baghdad to protect the largest US embassy in the world?

Here is my wife and I shooting some pool in the basement, LOL, I wish I shot that well, the chick is hot but my wife is hotter but then again she owns half my stuff!! Amazing trick shots, if you like pool you will love this clip: http://www.youtube.com/embed/AeiEiSKAp5M?rel=0

I appreciate your perspective, and yes I remember Henry Ford, he told us that you could have a Model "T" in any color you wanted to order it in as long as it was black. I also understand that this is supposedly an unbiased, nonpartisan commission that created the report, But, for the record, there is still a huge amount of money sitting on the sidelines (obviously from the wealthier and/or wealthiest amongst us),and that will most likely continue to remain on the sidelines unless tax laws are relegated to be more conducive to investment within this country, In my opinion, that would be a huge economic boom, if it were put back into our economy. As it now stands, that is not currently the case.

Ok, well, I showed this to my husband and he said, "Wow, that's amazing, think she has white panties on". Go figure! :lol:

Lake Tahoe is great this time of year !

I hear Vegas is nice this time of year!

"[shredd] see, people think this upcoming conference is directly correlated to a RV, but it means so so so much more.....when it's over, there will be an expectation set for investment in Iraq to be READY, AVAILABLE....that means an internaitonally traded Dinar." Internationally trade Dinar, this got my attention, lets hope it's true, thanks for the post

Obama’s main appeal was to the “something for nothing” ghetto mentality sector when campaigning for office 2008. The young voters didn’t have enough experience to realize “there is no such thing as a free lunch”. With the insinuation of “redistributive change” people that have money stopped spending it on November 4, 2008 as soon as the election results were released. The country is not broke. It’s the government that’s broke. The people won’t spend their money until we replace the “Welfare King”.

Me too . I love pool, That guy was amazing!
