LINK US Treasury: We will impose sanctions on any Iraqi party dealing with the Revolutionary Guards 13th September, 2019 The US Treasury said on Friday it would impose sanctions on any Iraqi body dealing with the Revolutionary Guards. The channel "Al Arabiya" quoted the Treasury as saying, "Iraqis are victims of their positions adjacent to Iran," indicating: "We will impose sanctions on any Iraqi party dealing with the Revolutionary Guards." "We consider the purchase of Iranian oil as a financing for terrorism," she said, adding that she would "continue the policy of economic pressure on Iran and Hezbollah." The US Treasury said, "Corruption in Iran is very large, and we consider Iran a terrorist state." "They have told Europe that their dealings with Iran are hurting their trade with us," she said.

9-13-2019 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat Simply put when the time comes the IMF will put the IQD in an SDR basket of currencies including the Yen, Yuan, Pound, Euro, USD and then the IQD. ...What does this do? It creates stability in the marketplace since, if one currency gets too shaky, the others will back it up and support it... How does putting the IQD in this SDR basket effect our exchange? Since the IMF will have to now weight the IQD along with the assets from these other 5 currencies in the basket, it will cause a re-calculation of the IQD rate and drive it higher like the pre-1991 rate plus equity. This is what will be the driving force behind getting more than a 1:1 after deleting the zeros. ...This is what will justify it. 9-12-2019 Newshound Guru Adam Montana It's been some time since this came up in the news, but I believe it was about 5 months ago I made mention of Saudi Arabia working on playing nice with Iraq again... and what they have to gain by doing so. Saudi Arabia couldn't be bothered to give Iraq the time of day 10 years ago... now, they are changing their tune: [Article] "Iraq-Saudi border crossing to reopen after nearly 30 years". ...WTI OIL is currently at 54.94... Other news that's positive - CBI, IMF, GOI are all active. We are not in one of those vacation-day lulls. Overall, it looks like things should start moving... right in time to hit a mid-September spurt. 9-12-2019 Newshound Guru Jeff [Article: Saleh and Abdul Mahdi discuss developments in the political situation and the implementation of the government program] ...the "government program" is everything that exists after the rate change. It's the period after the rate change that gives the citizens a better life. So that's why they're talking about implementing the "government program" now or soon because that's the period after the rate change... *******

Mr Sadr tweets: Their corruption will not last Release date:: 2019/13 13 11:02 • 633 times read BAGHDAD: The leader of the Sadrist movement, Muqtada al-Sadr, commented on the continuing corruption. "Their corruption will not last," Mr. Sadr wrote in a tweet on Twitter

I held back replying to this in order to remain respectful. I get so frustrated when people say government social programs are compassionate and Godly. Even more so when that person claims to be a Christian. GOVERNMENT SOCIAL PROGRAMS ARE NEITHER COMPASSIONATE NOR GOODLY. Only hypocritical Christians say that, and only because they pay taxes and they don't want to give more of their money away. Saying it's "compassionate and Godly" only makes you feel better. But your sin is still there. And why is it a wrong statement? Because the compassionate and Godly thing to do is to help someone to rise up and get back on their feet using everything at your disposal. Government social programs are by design the opposite of what I just said. They are designed to give you just barely enough to survive so as to forever keep you in need and thus relying on the government. That's NOT compassion, that's SLAVERY. How do I know so much about government social programs? Because I was once a recipient of them. But my self respect forced me to dig down deep and pull myself up. What was the response from the social worker in my case? She would not help me with truck driving school and told me that by simply paying the small introduction fee I was showing that I've been given too much assistance and thus no longer needed government help. In layman's terms "I was immediately cut off". How compassionate and Godly was that? I ended up finishing the three week school living in my pickup using the restrooms for personal hygiene. And thank God for Top Ramon, otherwise I would have starved. My first year out as a commercial driver I earned $45,000 dollars and that was in 1990. I NEVER got rich being a driver but I NEVER NEEDED ASSISTANCE FROM THE GOVERNMENT AGAIN. And today I make much more money so that my wife can do what she wants to do most in life, be a stay at home mom for my too LOVELY little girls. And ALL of that was by the Grace of God without any government social programs.

Broooooh man, that is patently unfair. You absolutely know that we want to know what's Broing on. Care to give us a update, Brotato Chip? Maybe a Cliff's Brotes version? Thanks Brohbody Knows You When You're Down and Out.

“Early on Thursday morning, Iraq’s border crossing department met with their Saudi Arabian counterparts to discuss the opening of Arar crossing border, in order to boost trades and tourism between the two countries,” Iraq is moving forward to an open market economy “A meeting held between Iraqi and Saudi border authorities at the Arar crossing set October 15 as a test period for its reopening, a department statement said.” We all know the dinar is not an international recognized currency, Is iraq planning to increase the dinar exchange rate before October 15?

Then Add In 104 Days Off Annually From All Of The Weekends ... LINK 124 official holidays in Iraq 13th September, 2019 The many holidays in Iraq push some to seek to modify because of disrupting the interests of citizens, in addition to the great economic loss, but it is not easy, especially since most of them religious or national The many holidays announced by the Iraqi government from time to time negatively affect the Iraqi government institutions, especially those services, which have direct contact with the affairs of citizens and their daily work. Since 2003, the number of public holidays declared by the State has increased from 16 days to 124, representing 33 per cent of the total number of days of the year, the majority of which are holidays and holidays chosen as religious occasions and related to different Iraqi communities, and several days, such as each year. From the month of Muharram within the Hijri calendar. In spite of attempts to pass the law of public holidays in a way that reduces the number of holidays, but the parties refuse to do so and seek to maintain. As a result of the majority of these holidays associated with religious events after 2003, the debate about them has not been easy either by citizens or members of parliament who adopt the option of a civil state. Religious parties usually defend these holidays, although some reports indicate that the country has suffered significant financial losses as a result of its large number. A government official says the negative impact of the failure on the functioning of state institutions cannot be denied. Even some state leaders want to reduce it without being able, ”he explained to the“ New Arab ”that“ these holidays affected the country economically, as well as affected the provision of services to citizens, especially in departments that are in direct contact with the citizen. ” He stresses that "there are complaints and demands from many citizens to reduce these holidays, which led some officials to try to coordinate with Parliament to pass a law that reduces the holidays." "In any case, many of them cannot be abolished because of their religious, national and symbolic significance to many," he says. Iraqi law gave local provincial governments the right to declare a day off for residents of the province exclusively as needed, which is repeated from month to month in several provinces and for various reasons. The Committee on Religious Endowments and Religious Affairs affirms that it is working to reduce public holidays in accordance with amendments to the "Holidays Act", and to pass them in Parliament. "There is a tendency to reduce public holidays within the law," said MP Hussein al-Yissari, head of the Awqaf and Religious Affairs Committee. Now that the Religious Affairs Commission has become independent, the law has been restored to its responsibility. ” He stresses that “the committees have a tendency to reduce the holidays. Some religious occasions that have become controversial between doctrines and religions. ” "If the number of holidays is reduced, it will benefit Iraq," he said. But he notes that "some holidays are fixed, such as national and religious events." Iraqi politicians assert that the problem of holidays lies in the "sanctification" by some quarters. Zaid al-Adli, a member of the Iraqi civil current, told Al-Arabi Al-Jadeed: “The Awqaf and Religious Affairs Committee in Parliament and the religious parties are the ones responsible for maintaining public holidays.” , Which have religious sanctity. ” He adds that the law to reduce the holidays is one of the laws introduced in parliament for a long time, but those bodies do not want to amend and cancel some of the holidays, but want to pass with the majority of the holidays, and add others instead of worthless holidays. He stresses that there must be a firm position by the Presidency of Parliament on the law, or that the government represented by its president to reduce the holidays due to the public interest of the country, and not to maintain the political mood that controls it.

LINK Abdul Mahdi and the challenges of 2020 12th September, 2019 by Mohammed Hassan Al-Saadi News reports from within the government closed the difference indicates that the upcoming visit by the Prime Minister, Mr. Adel Abdul - Mahdi to the People 's State of China is a good omen in a paradigm shift in the Iraqi economic reality where it is expected that Mr. Adel Abdul - Mahdi At the head of a high-level and very important on September 21 in order to conclude many deals and signing with major Chinese giants, which will include contracts in the construction of residential complexes and service projects - Chinese) at a cost of 10 billion dollars in addition to the reconstruction of railway and road projects in a direct manner and work on the establishment of major industrial cities in all Iraqi cities and the project to rebuild the highway from Baghdad to the northern cities to Syria as well as dozens of major projects And its mission. The US administration, for its part, although it was not willing to do so and was saying a lot to have a role in the reconstruction process in Iraq Abdul-Mahdi is keen to be this year is the year of the economic revolution in the country and a change in attitudes and allegations that talked about its failure and its inability to address the failures in the government and its inability to take political decisions affecting the sovereignty of the state amid the pressure exerted by political blocs on his government for its gains. Although he is an economist and claims that he is able to find a change in the economic policy of the country, he finds him unable to find such an economic revolution and free the Iraqi economy from restrictions. Political liberation of the political blocs that have become dominant and hold the economic file in all its details. Mr. Adel Abdul Mahdi continues his political movements and any signs of his dismissal or resignation are purely slogans intended to direct public opinion towards the failure of the government of Abdul Mahdi, but at the same time Abdul Mahdi wants to change such allegations and move towards an economic revolution in the country and the question and estimates of the success and failure of this The government returns to its ability to deal with the strategic problems experienced by the country, the most important of which is the power of the parties in power and control of the threads of government, and address all outstanding issues of services and reconstruction and improve the standard of living of the Iraqi individual and to achieve political, social and economic stability My country.

Rationality in politics… Adil Abdul Mahdi reaps the fruits for Iraq. It seems that the meetings of the Iraqi Council of Representatives next week will witness serious discussions on the impact of the levels of US-Iranian escalation in the region, and the effects of that escalation on Iraq, there are three important issues will be raised on the sessions of the Council , the first : the file of the exit of US forces and the international coalition from Iraq, and the second : Concerning the discussion of the strategic framework agreement signed between the United States of America and Iraq, since its signing until now, it is not clear who is responsible for the protection of Iraqi airspace, whether it is an Iraqi responsibility, or it is an American responsibility, and the third file: concerns the possibility of accountability and questioning the staff of the Iraqi government ministers or some of them. With regard to the exit of US troops from Iraq, it is known that Iraq’s money from oil revenues is kept in the US Federal Reserve Board, which is responsible for the money of Iraq, and in this context, a law or resolution issued by the House of Representatives in the direction of the removal of US troops from Iraq, may push the administration of President Donald Trump, through the US Treasury Department, to impose harsh and multilateral measures ,for example all Iraqi money will be subject to prosecution. It is now protected by presidential decree based on the security agreement between Iraq and the United States, and in the case of abolition , the reparations file , as well as accusations against Iraq of supporting terrorism, and the losses of US companies before 2003 will be reopened , and Iraqi funds will be withheld until the cases are resolved, let alone stop sending the dollar currency to Iraq, which will stop many obligations, and Iraq will be unable within two to three months to pay the salaries of its employees, especially those of embassies abroad, and Iraq’s international obligations and obligations towards companies, especially oil companies, and the country will be in a state of complete paralysis, similar to the days of the siege in the nineties of the last century, with a slight difference, taking such a step is playing with fire and undue risk. The Iraqi Council of Representatives must think deeply before taking any decision or law that may constitute a devastation on the security and economy of Iraq, and that its decisions and laws are in harmony with the higher interests of the Iraqi people, and not at the interests of the US or Iran, it is a House of Representatives representing the Iraqi people under the dome of the Council does not represent Tehran or Washington by proxy, the Iraqi people will not accept to be locked in decisions or laws that increase their economic suffering, if the Iraqi Council of Representatives issues that resolution or law, everyone in Iraq is a loser and the Iraqi political class in the forefront . Therefore, there must be a dialogue between the financial, security and defense committees emanating from the House of Representatives, the Prime Minister and the Governor of the Central Bank to reach political, legal and economic understandings to avoid Iraq risks. As for the strategic framework agreement, so far it is ambiguous between the Iraqi government and the Iraqi Council of Representatives on the one hand, and the United States of America on the other hand, on the body responsible for the protection of Iraqi airspace, according to the strategic framework does not have a legal formula that indicates that the United States of America is responsible to protect the airspace and there is no legal formula that Iraq may ask the United States to provide assistance to protect Iraqi airspace. According to some observers of the Iraqi issue that the Strategic Framework Agreement and the withdrawal of forces signed in 2008, confirmed the responsibility of US forces to protect the airspace of Iraq at altitude of 45 thousand feet, but below that, it is the responsibility of the Iraqi government, and that all drones – Aldron – fly within a range less than 45,000 feet, which is within the responsibility of the Iraqi government. Therefore, the Iraqi government and the US administration represented by its embassy in Baghdad must put the points on the letters to know the limits of that agreement and the responsibility of each party, and this requires them to be in a high degree of clarity and credibility. The third file concerns the accountability and questioning of some ministers by Iraqi Council of Representatives, which may amount to the dismissal or resignation of Iraqi Prime Minister Adil Abdul Mahdi. Everyone knows that there is a political crisis between the “Popular Crowd” and the institutions of the Iraqi state, and speculation about the future of the Iraqi government, considering that the government of Dr. Adil Abdul Mahdi came as a result of a parliamentary settlement between the two largest parliamentary blocs: «Saroon» led by Mr. Moqtada al-Sadr, and «al-Fatih» Led by Hadi al-Amiri, backed by the Popular Crowd , after a parliamentary-judicial debate over naming the largest bloc, which is constitutionally entitled to nominate the prime minister, some Iraqi parties went on to consider that an international regional settlement protecting the government was nearing its end as a result of escalating Iranian – American tension in the region, which reflected directly on the relationship of the “crowd” with the government, and its refusal to abide by its decisions, especially on how to respond to air strikes to its bases, but the attempts of the “crowd” rebellion against state institutions quickly turned into an internal crisis between his poles, showed his lack of cohesion and revealed the conflict of currents weakened his position in front of the Iraqi majority demand to confine arms to the hands of the state and adhere to Iraqi sovereign decisions. However, this crisis and this conflict between the poles of the government gave the PM a new maneuver margin, which enables him to fortify his position, and improve his conditions, after the attempts of the settlement parties to impose its agenda on the work of the government, at a critical stage where the level of criticism of the government increased, and the call to account it is risen, ten days after of its formation in October last year. The Iraqi constitution guaranteed the Iraqi parliament the right to question and accountable the Iraqi government, and it is the government in which its ministries accused of corruption issues, and who accuse the government of this, are already members of that government, while Prime Minister Adil Abdul Mahdi does not have a minister in the ministry or a deputy in the House of Representatives calculated on his political current, then who is the corrupt ?! However, Adil Abdel Mahdi scores important points in his favor, easing the pressure on him, giving him an opportunity that may not be repeated, helping him to rearrange his priorities, and move faster steps towards achieving some slogans of reform, and independence, although they are limited, in making decisions, taking advantage of a group of political factors that are floated above the surface of settlement noting that a wide segments of the Iraqi street in all its categories and colors are betting on its ability to expand the margin of his move and liberate it from internal and regional constraints .He is an important reformist warrior for years against the big and funny restrictions imposed by the hardliners inside and outside the Iraqi parliament. At this critical stage in Iraq’s history, he is in dire need of a multidimensional roadmap to get out of his crises, the threatening and intimidating approach does not address deep crises in the body of the Iraqi political system, but are tools that may be legal to gain time or temporary gain only. The body promises accountability and interrogation of the ministry, and may reach the level of dismissal, is the holder of the positions and privileges in it, and is also the body that runs the ministry through its economic offices. In practice, Iraqi concern over the future of the government is rising, and at this stage neither society nor political parties or elites are ready to enter into a political vacuum that may occur as a result of the overthrow of the government and the difficulty of choosing an alternative if it is impossible. For the sake of the prosperity of Iraq , Iraqis have to stand by the reformist warrior, Adil Abdul Mahdi, who, through his rational policies, managed to spare Iraq from entering the US-Iran conflict, which is witnessing a relative breakthrough, and with his good national stance in avoiding polarization in the US-Iranian conflict, Adil Abdul Mahdi feels his strong position because he is aware deeply that this conflict must end at the negotiating table, and that Iraq not be the loser of that conflict, Iraq is in his reign has good relations with both Washington and Tehran. Therefore, we reiterate that all Iraqi political forces should stand by Adil Abdul Mahdi in order that Iraq to reap the fruits of its rational policies at home and abroad.

Kurdistan president, Iraq minister discuss how to jumpstart economy Hiwa Shilani | 3 hours ago https://www.kurdistan24.net/en/news/1f03af15-528c-4a0e-ae72-7ee93b5830e2 Kurdistan Region President Nichervan Barzani (right) with Nouri Sabah al-Dulaimi, Iraq’s planning minister. (Photo: KRG president's office) Kurdistan KRG Iraq Economy A+AA- ERBIL (Kurdistan 24) – Discussions of how to boost foreign investment and private sector job opportunities led a meeting on Thursday between President of the Kurdistan Region Nichervan Barzani and Nouri Sabah al-Dulaimi, Iraq’s planning minister. In the meeting, which took place in the Kurdistan Region's capital of Erbil, Barzani and Dulaimi both stressed the necessity of initiatives that would spur growth in the economies of Iraq and the Kurdistan Region, according to a statement released afterward by the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG). Both stressed “careful planning, better policies, and reorganizing economic administration for a better and more developed fiscal future.” They also addressed preparations for the national census, set to take place in 2020, saying that “Cooperation and coordination between the federal government, the KRG, and the international community in the process,” was essential. The meeting concluded with a discussion on Iraq’s 2020 budget bill and the process of rebuilding areas damaged as a result of the past takeover by, and conflict with, fighters of the Islamic State. The KRG and the federal government of Iraq have multiple longstanding and often seemingly insurmountable disagreements related to the budget, oil and gas, and the nation's disputed territories. Ties between Erbil and Baghdad were strained considerably in late 2017 following the Kurdistan Region’s independence referendum, which saw a landslide majority favoring statehood. Following the formation of the new Iraqi government led by Prime Minister Adil Abdul Mahdi in late 2018, relations between them have improved significantly.
