So, does this say that they won't pass the budget until they can pass the HCL? Am I reading into this incorrectly?

Maybe when they say "reduce" the dinar, they mean to reduce it from 1200 per dollar to ONE per dollar.

RE: Dinar flow into Iran - I have long wondered about this very topic. I can't believe that the Insanians don't also know of the Dinar potential. IMHO, the dinar does NOT move in value until there is some kind of broad, verifiable international solution to the Insanian issue, and/OR...... a major collapse of the current Insanian regime ( replaced by a more acceptable, reasonable version ).

MAYBE, they've finally realized that having secure, prosperous Iraq as a stable buffer zone, is a good idea. MAYBE they will support Iraq in becoming a serious member of the Arab world, instead of just a playground for the worst elements of their biases against each other. With all of this "stability" going around, MAYBE the powers-that-be will push Iraq into getting their act together and pump up their international participation ( RI/RV ). (please also note from the pictures in the articles above: the guy from Kuwait actually has TWO eyebrows )

When I see the translated word "file", I substitute the word "issue", so that it makes more sense.

Saudi Arabia has EVERYTHING to gain in getting the U.S. and everyone else riled up at Iran. Those two countries haaaaaaaaaate each other. Their proxy war in the Sudan is ample evidence.

"On March 11, 2019, the Saudi news outlet Alarabiya.net, which is known for its anti-Iran views, published a report that...." Anyone consider that this is just some Saudi propaganda hogwash? Go on, tell me you haven't seen outright lies in their articles. Go on. We always need to first consider the source before we accept info as gospel truth. This info could be true. Maybe not at all. Just sayin'.....

Hillarious.

Somebody tell Barzani that Pizza Hut wants their tablecloth back.

They aren't puppet strings, they're puppet CHAINS.

OOOH. That's gotta smart when this article hits Iraqi news media. Nobody in Iraq had the guts to say that out loud. Well, it's out there now.

How the heck do you blame another freakin' country for sectarianism in your own country? Is he saying that the Jews are responsible for the Kurds, Sunnis and Shiites living in the same country and competing to see who the best thieves are? Poppycock. ( my "word of the day" )

Just where would one park the Bently?

Iran and Iraq have recently announced that they will be trading with each other in their own currencies. Now, Iran wants to drop four zeroes, at a time that Iraq is ever nearer to their goal of dropping three of them. Just wondering........if maybe they were thinking of doing all of this "dropping of zeroes" simultaneously. Hmm.

It wouldn't fix everything in Parliament, but if all votes were secret, and the party bosses/whips couldn't find out how members voted, they might get more done. IMO
