[Mangorancher] OK, just got off the phone the Intel is this: Hischoicenotmine has 1,5,10 dinar notes and will be sending a photo so that we can make sure they are the NEW low denoms.. will report back the findings. [duke] I have a contact that has verified the lower denoms, and has verified what we've already heard about RV this week ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ [NAMDOG] I went to my bank today to just do normal things, it was loaded with people from elsewhere. I don't know if I should say the name of the bank or not but I will, do not call them. One of my main people that I'm used to told one of the Wells Fargo people who I am because I'm in there three or four times a week. The Wells Fargo guy came over and started talking to me. I would not tell him how much I had until I found out what he knew . He was very interested in how much dinar I had. It seems as though this sudden and unexpected early transition is caused from the fact that the old bank does not handle currency the same way the new bank does therefore the frenzy of training people to the Wells Fargo methods is imperative that it happened now [NAMDOG] There is a monitor above some of the teller windows I see it every time I'm in there. It usually talks about nothing but I watch it when I am waiting in line, this time it was all about currency This was all very interesting and very telling to me. I hope this made sense to you it makes whole lot of sense to me ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ [boandaisey] OK here is what I have spoke with contact at 5/3rd today on a couple of occasions he said all he could say is they are expecting something very big today called back at lunch for an update and he and another bank employee were gone to lunch called back an hour and a half later and was told they did not return to work after lunch hm [boandaisey] On another note there have been multiple sightings in my town with Old Wachovia Branch parking lots slapped packed and folks parking in other areas and walking over to bank... that's when Namdog checked it in his area say they were training as Wachovia did not handle currency as Wells Fargo did [boandaisey] Now I was told from another branch the merging did not take effect until 6/17/11 well guess what they have unveiled all of the Wachovia's to Wells Fargo over the weekend and doing training today hm [boandaisey] Now we have Intel from one of the big 4 that yes there will be an RV this week and and they were gearing up all last weekend and training this came from in upper sector of the bank not branch level there have also been other conformations today that yes this is supposed to happen to day. [boandaisey] there was also a cast on FOX and CNN today saying there was going to be a worldwide currency change effective tomorrow I have not had the opportunity to validate this. [boandaisey] I am telling you it has been nuts around here today. [boandaisey] People we are here the USA is running out of time this has to happen. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ [boandaisey] I was told the FXO and CNN news was on a ticker fox People we are here the USA is running out of time this has to happen. [88harley] boandaisey was that today on cnn or yesterday? [boandaisey] China has already made call on our debt. [88harley] so there saying tomorrow for currency change [boandaisey] 88harley today [88harley] boandaisey ty [boandaisey] OK that's all I can give ya for now POPPY2: Just got off the phone, all Intel at this point is still saying that all great plans are being completed and I still feel very good about the RV at anytime. I do believe that if there were a sincere problem of some kind, we would have some indication of it by now and that is just not the case. All I am hearing and talked with Tony earlier and everything we are getting is good. So rest easy and stay happy with support for one another. Keep a look in your driveway cause the train may pull in at any time loaded with dollars.

Gary B. Exchanging With Chase Bank June 13th, 2011 Hey ya’all got a good one for ya! I have a friend who lives in a very small town. Well its like 2,000 people in that town and he has been an insurance salesman in that town for over 30 years. Therefore he has gotten to know almost ALL the local business owners VERY WELL. This includes the manager of the local Chase Bank branch there. Well he has known her for over 30+ years and went into the bank on Friday to talk to her. He asked her if she knew anything about the Dinar, and she pulled him to the side and said she is NOT supposed to talk about this BUT. She has heard from corporate that they want to have as much of the Dinar cash in business as they can get! Therefore she has been directed by corporate to make sure this is ALL ABOUT SERVING THE CUSTOMER! She is to bend over backwards for anybody who has Dinar they want to cash, and for those who are current long standing customers to cash in with NO SPREAD, give them the best deal the bank is able to do, even if it costs a little to do it, KEEP THE CUSTOMER. Provided of course they keep their Dinar holdings primarily in Chase Bank. Also she was instructed to charge a spread though for NEW customers, and that spread is to commensurate with the amount the new customer is exchanging and to exchange they must become a customer of Chase. He asked about if she as a small town branch would need to send the Dinar off to a larger branch to be verified before it could be deposited and she said No we have ways to verify it is legit currency even here in this small out of the way branch. You will have your exchange cash in your account before you walk out the door! Oh yes, also she did NOT say anything about the timing but that he should be ready within the next few days, no specifics on exact time. I find this very exciting news! I have been a Chase customer for many years now! Whoo Hoo!

it doesn't matter if you put a disclaimer that info posted was from someone else a lot of people still think it is your post or your words and not someone elses. this has happened to me several times. like you i have no intel just what i read from others/elsewhere. after all as my name says i have nointel....

holy toledo batman.

ok we went from seeing it tomorrow to it could be tomorrow evening. and of course then it will be tuesday all too familiar. is poopy2 a guy or a girl?

wasn't this posted already? no need to overdue bad intel....

i think he is back with his old buddy medic. i don't think he posts much but according to medic he is always talking to him. who knows maybe he got his vouchers and is waiting on the post RV side.....

IMO we will be seing more posts from this guy. i hope i'm wrong...

what's a few billion more when you are already trillions in debt. wtg USA, spend and then spend till it hurts...

isn't profiling against the law? JK

maybe this is the works of the GET team. they needed some real intel from real sources this time instead of made up BS. get ready for this to be the next excuse as to why it won't/didn't happen on Monday the 13th.

i'm not a financial advisor this post is written from someone else. i was hesitant to post because of the religion in the post. i knew it would start the usual discussions of religion and this investment should be seperate. but he has some points on the investment aspect minus the religion.

David B. Email: Dinar Update Investment Thoughts June 11th, 2011 Hello holders of the Dinar currency. It is Saturday June the 11th of 2011 and as far as I know the dinar has not revalued yet. As I spent time in prayer and bible study this morning I think it is time for me to give my 2 cents regarding this currency we hold. This may be long overdue but I pray it provides encouragement for you. I also hope and pray this makes it into the hands of all the dinar guru’s out there as it just may be able to help their subscribers and themselves. For those of you reading this that do not know me let me make some things very clear. I do not work for a dinar dealer or sell dinar for a profit or operate my own dinar blog site. I am an investment adviser that runs my practice using biblical principles of stewardship who also personally holds some dinars. As an investment adviser for 18 years, my job is to assist my clients in achieving their financial goals and objectives whether that may be saving for their child’s college education, retirement, etc. As advisers we face hurdles in doing this with the top three in my opinion being taxes, inflation and the client being not disciplined or willing to adhere to sound advice at least we think it is sound). In the past, the markets have always been good and bad so that’s something we deal with along the way. So when we looked back at the results for the past 100 years, we were able to see that the market had always produced a return higher than bonds, CD’s, real estate and even precious metals. But the last 10 years has been a much different scene that has produced some very concerning new hurdles that we now face. Let me explain. Without going into too much detail and boring or maybe even depressing you too much, the new hurdles we now face in addition to the existing ones are as follows: 1. An unstable stock market. This has been the case for the past 11 years or since the tech bubble burst in March of 2000. The stock market since then is still down! At the present time, the only reason I can see the market going up is when the Gov prints money they call it quantitative easing. The formula I have seen is simple and works like this: the Gov prints $ and the market goes up and when they stop printing $ the market goes down. This clearly should tell us that no matter what stock market Guru’s say in regards to the market being undervalued or that it’s a great time to invest cannot be true. So with that said, a significant stock market correction may become a reality. 2. A Bond market bubble. We currently have 61% of all the marketable treasury debt that’s publicly held maturing in 4 years. So during the next 4 years, the treasury must either repay or refinance more than 1 trillion in existing debt each year. For a default to be avoided the treasury may have to refinance up to 10 trillion dollars! So inevitably the bond market will most likely crash while our own industry tells readers on CNBC just yesterday that investors seek safety in bonds. That advice at one time was sound as bonds were much safer than stocks so it would make sense to seek safety in them. But not today! I’m afraid that investors that listen and apply this general advice are in for possible devastating losses. So with these risks, the Federal reserve cannot allow the USD to strengthen! This leads me to hurdle number three. 3. A weakening US Dollar. When money is printed at the rate that we have recently seen and when we have a nearly 15 Trillion dollar deficit we get a weakened USD. Not to mention the rising prices of wheat, sugar and other commodities that are leading to higher prices in what we buy in grocery stores. Today our USD is a 10 year lows to the Australian, New Zealand and Canadian dollars. The USD also sits at an all time low against the Swiss franc CHF! Please take a look at this chart: http://data.cnbc.com/quotes/CHF%3dX/tab/2 Viewing that 10 year USD, CHF chart should be a real wake up call for us! Just think about it, our USD has fallen over 100% against the Swiss franc and other currencies! That means that if you were to travel to Switzerland 10 years ago our $1000 would be exchanged for $2000 francs giving us a vacation at half price! But today a very different scenario is taking place and if you were to take your $1000 to Switzerland you would receive $840 francs! Nice huh!? And due to $ continued to be printed and all the new bonds out there, the logical conclusion is pretty clear our USD will continue to weaken. Your probably thinking gee this is just great news and encouragement, I feel great right now! thanks Dave Hang in there its gets better I promise! If you were not aware of those very real problems, I’m sorry I was the one to shed the light on them for you but it needed to be done. Burying our heads in the sand doesn’t seem to be working too well! I can honestly tell you that these problems give all investors alike very challenging set of circumstances! We must face these problems head on and find solutions that require much prayer and trust in the Lord Jesus. But i am sure I have merely brought things to attention that you already knew were happening though. While I do have a few possible solutions, i am only going to address holding dinars as one of the solutions since those reading this email owns them. I hold dinars because I believe they are one potential solution to the hurdles stated above. Lord willing, my goal now is to help you in how to look at your dinar holdings in a healthy manner. Ok here we go. Your dinars are a trade able currency in Iraq. They are not a scam as some still say but are currency that we all think will one day revalue mainly because they are traded in a country that has an abundance of oil as their main asset and at the present time their currency is pretty much worthless. So I personally hold them because my own research suggests this is good currency to hold as it has a very good potential to increase in value and as a possible solution to the 3 hurdles discussed above. It’s the exact same outlook we should have when we buy a stock, I.E I bought this because i think it should increase in value where then i can sell the asset for a profit. So being that NO ONE knows when this RV will occur it’s best and important to have a healthy outlook with this investment. Some words of caution, if you are continuing to read rumor after rumor that has stated time and time again that tomorrow is the day STOP listening to that nonsense! Stop listening to anyone that has ever given a date and a rate that did not materialize! The Bible is clear that when someone prophesies regarding an event to happen on a certain date and it does not occur then that person is a False Prophet. I’m sure I made some enemies on that comment but it’s not my truth, it’s contained in Gods Holy Word so take it up with Him. Please know that I’m not talking about some guru’s who say that June COULD POSSIBLY be a good month to RV because of what their research has told them, as we are all entitled to our own opinions. I just caution you in revolving your life around when this may happen and listening to those out there who seem to always know when it will RV. So here is my advice to you. Look at this as an investment that can possibly provide for your future retirement. Our outlook should be similar to when we save every month in a given investment vehicle knowing that one day in the future our sacrifice of saving $ will pay off. Holding this currency should be no different than any other LONG TERM investment. Even though we all think the dinar is close to revaluing, we should still look at it long term because we simply do not know when it will RV. I look at it like any long term investment by setting an amount that i want to invest and let it play out. God is in control, while Iraq, the IMF or US Gov are just a part of the plan so sit back and watch it all unfold. I look at it like this: if I held this for 5 more years then it RV’s I am one happy camper! Sure it would be nice to have it happen now to be able to use it to bring Glory to God but we can’t think that way as God is in charge of when this will happen. Even though an RV can occur at anytime, it is not a get rich quick scheme and does not need to be viewed as one! I realize things are so tough on many people right now and my heart goes out to you. Just be encouraged that you even know about this unique investment strategy and add it to your list of things to be thankful for! But put your trust in the Lord as your provider in these trying times not the dinar. And if you do not know Jesus Christ then repent of your sins and place your trust only in Him as Lord and Savior. Our hope is found only in Christ Jesus. The Lord is Sovereign over our lives so trust Him to do whats best for you. If your broke, lost your job, in mourning, having health issues than go to the Lord as He only has the power to make you whole. Just remember this, Jesus said in this life that we would have afflictions but He also said that lo, I Am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Hang in there with a healthy attitude and enjoy this great adventure! May the Lord be pleased to bless this email to you! God Speed to you fellow dinar holder. David B.

i have heard it said before that all wars are backed by big banks. so tell me why would banks back a war? well if i'm not mistaken a bank is business to make money. so the answer it must be a business decision to make a lot of money for the banks.. and also this war is going to pay for its self. so we shall see.

Bilderberg 2011: Full Official Attendee List http://stevebeckow.com/2011/06/bilderberg-2011-full-official-attendee-list/ I’ve been dragging my feet on publishing this list because I’m worried that it would fuel excessive negative sentiment against the individuals involved. But so many people have asked to have it published and I’ve become convinced that the value of publicizing the attendees outweighs the risk of inciting the desire, as George Bush Sr. put it, to hang them all from the nearest lamp post, which would not be a constructive or desirable thing. Thanks to Josefine, who gave me the latest nudge. Thanks to the fantastic work of Bilderberg activists, journalists and the Swiss media, we have now been able to obtain the full official list of 2011 Bilderberg attendees. Routinely, some members request that their names be kept off the roster so there will be additional Bilderbergers in attendance.

not holding my breath but i am so ready for this to get done with.

American Con: 11 6 2011 Today, I got some additional, interesting information. The new Iraqi currency has been placed on hold. With the excuse being that with all the recent activities & transitions of the CBI bank as well as the Iraqi government it has just not been printed. I know this may be conflicting with what some of you have been told but this is factual & up to date information. There are no bills at this time. The printing of them is on hold.

had me going there until i read the paragraph below and saw poppy2 with more of her BS. she and others say they have been told this and that. i just want to know who is telling them these lies they keep spewing? must be a politician, or pinochio.

so what your saying these aren't a .50 note?

Reporting from Baghdad— Government-sponsored demonstrators, some armed with clubs, attacked pro-democracy protesters Friday in Tahrir Square and paraded pictures of Prime Minister Nouri Maliki's chief rival, Iyad Allawi, with a red X slashed across his face. Groups of rowdy young men, some said by Western sources to have been bused in by Maliki's Islamic Dawa Party, roamed the streets armed with sticks and other weapons. At least four men were badly beaten and several women were assaulted, said pro-democracy activists who have held weekly rallies at the downtown square since February, inspired by the populist movements that first swept Tunisia and Egypt. The violence, which echoed street attacks in the years leading to the creation of Saddam Hussein's authoritarian state, bodes ill for Iraq's emergent democracy, which President Obama recently described as a success story. The attacks on peaceful protesters also raise questions about how much freedom of expression will be tolerated by the Maliki government after the remaining U.S. forces leave Iraq by year's end. The incident comes as state television airs the purported confessions of suspects in a brutal sectarian massacre during the height of the bloodshed in 2006. About 70 Shiite Muslims were killed when an armed Sunni Muslim group stormed a wedding party in Taji. One of the confessions, which some believe were coerced, is accompanied by graphic images showing the victims, bound and gagged, lying on the bank of the Tigris River, and then, after they were shot, their blood turning the water red. The pro-government rallygoers, estimated at 1,000, demanded that the killers be executed. It didn't take long for the demonstrators to turn on the pro-democracy activists. At least one group of men assaulted 10 women, allegedly groping and clubbing them, and others were beaten before they fled. The assailants had steel pipes, knives and guns, and soldiers present did not intervene, pro-democracy activists said. Instead, the activists said, they offered juice and food to the pro-government forces. "We were about 10 women standing on the same place we used to stand each Friday carrying our signs, the same we carry every week. After about two minutes, a person came to us, I can describe him as pro-government person, and asked us to leave that place because it is for the people supporting Nouri Maliki," said Jannat Bassem, a women's rights activist. "We refused to withdraw. This man was wearing a black shirt; then three persons in plainclothes came with him. After we refused, one of them pulled one of the signs we were carrying and started to hit us with them it." Among those threatened Friday was Ali Jaff, one of four democracy activists detained two weeks ago and released Tuesday. "They surrounded us and their crowds began to push us," Jaff said. "We noticed that there were people wearing plainclothes carrying walkie-talkies." Some activists retreated down the street to Firdos Square, the plaza where a statue of Saddam Hussein was torn down days after the 2003 U.S.-led invasion of Iraq. A small group of men sat on the grass there, some saying that they had been beaten in recent days. One of the men was on crutches, his leg in a cast. He said that at last week's protest a few soldiers asked him for a smoke and then threw him into a car, where they broke his leg. He said he was so scared that he didn't go to a hospital for two days. Police cars circled and about a dozen buses filled with pro-government tribesmen passed, taunting the activists from the windows. After the activists had been chased from the square, two government ministers and a military spokesman from Maliki's coalition joined the pro-government rallygoers and did not mention the beatings or the inflammatory pictures of Allawi. "Today the tyrants crossed all lines," Allawi said later. http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/iraq/complete/la-fg-iraq-protests-20110611,0,6887075.story

if i'm not mistaken these guys are the ones who have been shouting daily that it's done, nothing more to do, just waiting, no more hold ups, just waiting for the banks to go live, we'll see it by (fill in date), etc. for the past several months. and by my count they have been wrong every single time they open their mouths. and i'm sure we will all be here next week with another excuse from them why it still hasn't happened and a new set of intel from their crack team of BSers. these fools need to get off planet D and back on planet earth.
