I find myself in tears and a surreal state of mind as I first tell you all how much I have missed you and..... That this fine morning in 2013 I recieved a blessing I am not sure I deserved. I recieved blood test result confirm that there is no longer any presence of cancer in my system of any kind. I can only say to you thank you for your prayers and they have been answered. More to follow......in need of a minute.

Thank you all for your continued support. I want you all to know your prayers are working, I will be posting the results of the follow up testing in the next few days. This will be along with a few things that I need to share with you to include an incredible young man that will be joining my family as one of ours. Its been an amazing journey these last two months and I couldn't have done it without you. There is nothing I can say big enough to cover the gratitude and respect I have for all of you. Your outpouring of support for my family and I is truly astounding. God Bless you all, I wish I could stay longer but I am very tired right now. Its gonna take some time, but I plan on seeing you all in person at the other end of this thing. Goodnight to you all. Quietlearner

Hey Trooper Quietlearner here. I was not going to post anymore tonight but I thought I better respond to this article. Quietlearner style of course. and Nani here is the yang to for ying. Lets really look at what is said in this article. " Big purchases will be handled with $100.00 Dinar notes." This tells me that the Dinar will Revalue in unison with the the Re-denomination. I thought it was well decided that you would not lose any value in your $25,000.00 Dinar note. Do you really believe that the individuals that attempted to pull such a scam would not be dragged to the streets and beheaded. This as you well know is common place when one of the Pariliment or the like acts in a manner unbecoming, can you really see this type of move happening and the Iraqi people after ten hard years, standing for it. I think not. Look we all have invested in this but lets step back and look at hard working Haji. He busted his hump for 20 years amassed 3 million dinar and then along came Husein and Bin ladden and his brothers bin drinking and bin smoking. These maniacs turn Iraq upside down and it ended up in a war. One moment Haji has 9.9 million dollars USD in the bank in the next he has $3600.00 Do you really thing that this guy is going to lay down roll over and take..... Well you get my point. Heres how I see the article. We will first via re-denomination be give the correct exchange rate for the Dinar we are holding 25,000 Dinar notes included. With this will come a time line to exchange this currency, just like the old Dinar. After that date your 25,000 note may be worth 25 actual dinar but not a second before. This article tells me that they are going to release coins. How many coins would it take to buy a coke right now in Iraq. No brainier, Coins released RV must occur. 100.00 Dinar notes takes care of big Purchases RV. No brainier. lastly he goes on to tell us that the darn rate will be at least 3.3 and if you really study Scooters work you will find that 5.00 is more realistic that the later. Half full, Half Empty, its up to you but I just don't believe their gonna go backwards and to do anything short of the 3.75 to 4.24 range would be doing just that. I have been wrong twice with trying to nail down the dates and rates. I have come at both of those predictions with a vengeance only to watch the various entities in charge of this thing derail my theory at every turn. This time, with no date to interfere I believe a healthy dose of objective reasoning will finally prevail. I truly hope so because, the taste of these words I am putting forth taste more and more bitter with each bite that I must swallow when they don't prove true. Please remember that you are all very, very wealthy already. You need only look up at your loved ones, your friends and your family. There is your true wealth, sometimes we lose sight of this. Please, a extra hug, smile or embrace, maybe even a "I love you." Stay focused on your true wealth and the rest will flow to you like the waters of our great rivers. Good night to you all, God Bless and please if possible keep a positive and balanced outlook on this thing. Know you have joined together in the largest transfer of wealth to ever occur, and yes you are on the receiving end. I see a light at the end of this tunnel and I am sure it is not a train. I will post in the next couple of days. It will not have much to do with the dinar, but more to express my appreciation for the overwhelming outpouring of support you have offered my family and I. There are no words that will completely convey our appreciation for you all, but I will certainly try. God bless and Go RV, Goodnight, Quietlearner

Hey caught in the crossfire, I'm sorry I do not have any of that on paper. I was in the middle of a dispute with Ali and his staff directly in regards to a reserve date the first time I had heard about him closing. That was in late April right after the below email. This email is actually what I sent them as the DT site had posted this rate the day this reserve was do. I actually believed it was fact and I had missed the RV. It did not stop with this one and got very heated in the next few emails, which I wont post as the profanity I used would shock the sensibility of the common man. Reserve payment due today April 25 # 121069 TO: 1 More1 recipientCC: 1 recipientYou 1 MoreBCC: recipientYou Hide Details FROM: paul lanphereTO: sales@dinartrade.comCC: Annette ThompsonMessage flagged Monday, April 25, 2011 2:56 PM Message body Dear Sales,I am aware that our payment is due today. I would like you to make the payment using Dinar at the exchange rate of 7.O3 USD TO 1.00 IQD This rate is consistant with the posting on the Bank of International Settlement. If there is a problem with this method of payment please contact me immediately so I can make other arrangements. I am having a difficult time with the traditional payment method as I am unable to fund my account with a check that continue to not clear. Thank you for your time and anticpated cooperation in this important matter. Respectfully,Quietlearner Reply to: Send That being said I was so angry I drove to the office and wanted to confront Ali in person. I was greeted by several suits who made it clear that this course of action would not be wise. I called from my vehicle and and was told by the office manager "we are closing Mr. ____________ I will pass your message on." I told him great so now you will jump ship and leave us holding the bag. His reply was with some reluctance " we are not leaving just closing out the sales end of the Dinar. We will re-open when the RV is eminent." Make no mistake Lord knows and so do the folks on this site I can be and have been wrong in my beliefs and ideals on the entire dinar situation, however, in this area the information is firm. I am sure folks that have dealt with Dinar Trade can testify to the fact that this type of statement if not exact statement has been replayed over and over. The other three times I heard this were random phone call to Dinar Trade to see if they were in fact still running the office. To the best of my knowledge that office has been staffed the entire time 5 days a week 8 hours a day. The reason I called? It made me very nervous, at that point DT was the only place I had purchased Dinar. I was concerned about the rumors of counterfeit Dinar etc. I put everything I had in the Dinar and I do know that one should never put all his eggs in one basket, however, what do you do when you only have one egg? Take Care I'm sorry I don't have more for ya but it should be fairly simple to verify what I am saying. Lastly, a word of friendly advice, their was never a time line indicated verbally as far as the time he would open to the time of the RV. That my friend would be entirely to simple. Although I have posted this, I still would encourage you to stay objective and balanced. I wouldn't hang my hat on any one thing, but rather I would watch for many little things like this to come together, and don't forget Prayer. God Bless, Queitlearner PS As far as the reason for the break, its complicated and honestly its at this point confidential, When I meet up with you and buy you a beer, I tell ya all about it. Its actually a very interesting and disturbing story. There are about nine versions out there now some closer than others, but it is truly a serious matter.

Dinar Trade to reopen. I live 25 minutes from Ali's office. I have spoke with the office staff on 4 seperate occasions. They have been clear in stating each time that they would be reopening when the RV was Eminent. I will pray. Thanks all of you for your kindness, prayers and love you have sent me and mine. I would like to tell you its working, but we will wait a little longer. God bless and GO RV!!!

SULAIMANIYA / Aswat al-Iraq: A press source at the Kurdish National Union Party reported today that President Masoud Barzani, accompanied with leaders of the Democratic Party arrive in Dokan, Sulaimaniya, to hold a mee4ting with President Jalal Talabani to discuss recent developments on Kurdish and Iraqi scenes. The source told Aswat al-Iraq that the talks will concentrate on the "events taking place in the region, general Iraqi condition, and the recent order to dismount Kurdish flag from disputed areas."RM (TP)/SR http://en.aswataliraq.info/Default1.aspx?page=article_page&id=145355&l=1

NOW CAN WE VOTE THE MAN THAT CALLS HIMSELF AMERICAN OUT? Barry Saterro AKA THE BIG O MUST GO!

This is possibly some of the best news I have received all week. Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't the statement, and I quote "THERE WILL BE NO INCREASE OR CHANGE IN THE VALUE OF THE KUWAIT DINAR IN ANY WAY, PERIOD." come from the Central Bank of Kuwait , Just six hours and forty seven minutes prior to one of the largest currencies events in history? I think yes. The more we see this the closer we are. Couple this with 20 million Dinars, posts this morning and we should be very, very close indeed. Happy RVing and may your day be filled with understanding and compassion for all who are so much less fortunate than each of us. Love Light and dont forget the Salt, Quietlearner.

Once again 20 million, Outstanding work. Best article I have read all week. I sure appreciate your diligence and hard work. Article like these keep me coming back for more! ++++++

Keep a close eye on Pres Talabani today and tomorrow, I believe the Maliki time is coming to a abrupt if not leadend end. It was just a matter of time before they flushed out the ilk, and low and behold if it isnt Maliki, Didn't he just have some private meetings with the US President? Wonder whats coming next. That said just watch Talabani and Shab's its time to turn the crank. QL

That is a great idea and I want to thank you for bringing this to the forum. Seems the only time I get in real trouble is when I start to believe I am somehow so powerful that I believe I am the King of "My Kingdom". This never, ever works out. I am posting this well known parable as it just seems timely. JOHN 17:21-26 “I do not ask for these only, but also for those who will believe in me through their word, 21.) that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me. 22.) That glory that you have given me, have given them, that they may be on even as we are one, 23.) I in them and you in me, that they may become perfectly one, so that the world may know that you sent me and loved them even as you loved me. Father, I desire that they also, whom you have given , may be with me where I am to see my glory that you have given me because you loved me, before the foundation of the of the world. 25.) O, righteous Father, even though the world does not know you, I know you, and these know that you have sent me. 26.) I made known to them your name, and I will continue to make it known, that the love with which you have loved me may be in them. God Bless you all, Quietlearner

BAGHDAD / Aswat al-Iraq: Iraqi Parliament Speaker Usama Nujaifi called "to stop making Iraq a conflict of international wills or finalizing accounts". In a statement in the Palestine Support Conference, held in Teheran, he demanded cooperation with the Iraqi government and not creating new crises in the country. "The democratic process in Iraq is facing grave challenges from internal and external levels in order to make the country fall in a disastrous whirl", he added. He called for the demarcation of Iraqi boundaries and give its rights in joint rivers, prevention of terrorism from using neighborly territories and stop bombing Iraqi border areas. On the other side, Nujaifi proposed establishing an Islamic union, similar to the European, and a joint Islamic market. http://en.aswataliraq.info/Default.aspx?page=article_page&c=slideshow&id=145110

Ok I believe all the players are now in place. What time will it RV tomorrow? BAGHDAD / Aswat al-Iraq: President Jalal Talabani returned today from the U.S. after attending the UN General Assembly sessions. In a presidential statement, as received by Aswat al-Iraq, it noted that Talabani made a speech in the 66 UN session, held in New York, where he met a number of heads of states. He declared in his speech that "the need will push Iraq, according to the need, to keep US military experts", calling for convening the coming Arab Summit in Baghdad.

<BR><BR>I understand your need to contribute. It is difficult to find the correct platform to assist in our quest for truth and fact, here at Dinar Vets. A better source for you could be researching all agency events and finding minutes from meetings, press releases and the like. Another good one is the News agency through out the UK and the US. Carefully navigate the Middle Eastern Sites to be sure you not being feed a line of out and out crapola. I would highly recomend that you stay clear of the type of stuff you have currently posted . Most folks here, don't give a hoot about the other sites as we continue to preserve our sites integrity via fact based researched news with sources provided. You of course are welcome to post anywhere you like and do as you wish, it just appears to me that your attempt to bring new and good info is sincere and I am attempting to save ya a few steps. It feels good when you get that first really juicy post. You need only watch K98night or Sara to see how its done. They are both addicts now and I'm sure will be attending Newsaholics Anonymous after this RV. I will save them a seat. Good luck to you.<BR>Respectfully,<BR>Quietlearner<BR> That above was locked. That being said I am thinking this one may belong in the news. Great find. I'm gonna do some quick research on this and I will repost. Thanks, Quietlearner

It is apparent that two issues arise in your understanding of what you are reading. It is easy to be mislead by this information if you are not aware of how its actually read. I have learned this the hard way. About one month ago JMW and 20 Million Dinar had a in depth conversation in regards to this very same type of post. First, as pointed out in the first response to your post, you missed the,"Other" listed securities and currencies. The second issue is a clear understanding that securities in this sense is not hard currency when it comes to holding from another Country, but rather debt. This is true in each and every reported Foreign Country Holding that I have been able to research. I am working on finding controlling legal stance to force the Treasury Department to be more forthcoming when I ask them questions. So far, if I actually get to some one that can answer my questions, they simply hang up on me. Nothing like Government Transparency as promised by the Commander and Chief. At any rate thanks for the current update on the UST. And just a quick after thought, take a look at the securities we hold. Now think about that simply being money owed us. How on earth are we in a economic crisis? I just don't get it. Just maybe there are many, many millionaires being made on the Stocks and Bond trade here in the US and abroad than one can fathom. Just maybe. Quietlearner How come it is on the forex? Quietlearner

Hi Blessed2bless, Just wondering since the Divine Dream was so vivid you were able to see the address you were going to live at, did you by chance glimpse a calender or clock. You knew what the date to exact thirteenth year to the fulfillment of this most divine intervention thought if there was that type of clarity you would have a date and rate to boot. Hope it comes true for you and all involved, however, I would hope that you wouldn't subscribe or ask others to subscribe to the idea that if your premonition turns from Divine to a bad trip from the sixties, there would be no chance for RV, as that would be a falsity in itself. Respectfully, Quietlearner

ARBIL / Aswat al-Iraq: A spokesman for north Iraq Kurdistan Region’s government has said on Tuesday that Article 140 of the Iraqi Constitution “is considered the only guarantee to settle differences,” in a comment on recent statements by the Chairman of the Shiite Sadr Trend, Muqtada al-Sadr, who warned against the merger of northeast Iraq’s Khanaquin Township to Kurdistan Region. “The main trend of the Kurdistan Region’s government is to implement Article 140 to settle differences according to the Iraqi Constitution,” pointing out that “the Kurds in Khanaquin and its surrounding areas are facing compulsory immigration out of their home areas, thing that the Kurdistan Region’s government won’t allow,” Kawa Mahmoud told Aswat al-Iraq news agency. Mahmoud said that the Kurdish Peshmerga forces have been spread in Khanaquin “in order to protect its Arab, Turkomen and Kurdish inhabitants and to prevent any demographic change in the area, because such trend does not cope with Iraq’s new policy,” adding that “Kurdistan Region’s government is committed to the Constitution and other forces and parties must be keen to its implementation.” The satellite position of the Political Committee of the Sadrist Trend had quoted Sadr to have said, in his reply on calls to merge Khanaquin and its surrounding areas to Kurdistan Region, thing that the Sadrist Trend said it had “warned from and confirmed that the Federalism would take steps that won’t please anybody.” The Kurdistan Region’s government had spread its Peshmerga forces around the areas surrounding Khanaquin to achieve “protection” for the inhabitants of those areas, after the escalation of violence acts the Kurds say they were targeted against their inhabitants, mostly belonging to the Kurdish Community. Kurdistan Region’s President, Massoud Barzani, has met on Sept. 22 the Mayor of Khanaquin township and other Kurdish personalities and citizens, in which he said that “the main target for spreading the Peshmerga forces in the areas belonging to Khanaquin aims at achieving protection for the inhabitants of the Township, belonging to Arab, Kurdish and Turkomen Communities,” adding that “their security missions does not aim to protect a certain community against another.” http://en.aswataliraq.info/Default1.aspx?page=article_page&id=145061&l=1

BAGHDAD, Sept. 29 (UPI) -- Attacks in Baghdad and Kirkuk killed at least three people and injured at least 16 others, officials in Iraq said. An Iraqi army officer and a bodyguard were killed and three soldiers were injured Wednesday in an explosion west of Kirkuk in northern Iraq, Aswat al-Iraq reported Thursday. "An Iraqi Army officer and one of his guards were killed, along with three soldiers injured in an explosive charge blast under their military vehicle close to Zab township," a police official in Kirkuk said. Security officials said an Iraqi policeman was killed and another police officer was injured in an attack on an Interior Ministry vehicle northeast of Baghdad Thursday. A security official said the unidentified gunmen escaped, Aswat al-Iraq said. In Kirkuk, at least a dozen people were injured by a car-bomb explosion Thursday, police said. "A booby-trapped car blew off at the center of Kirkuk city, wounding 12 persons as a preliminary result," the security official told Aswat al-Iraq. The car was parked in a garage near a hospital, the official said.

SULAIMANIYAH, Iraq — A suicide bomber detonated his explosives-packed car Thursday near a bank where policemen were picking up their paychecks in the northern Iraqi city of Kirkuk, killing two people and wounding as many as 60, officials said. Kirkuk police spokesman Brig. Gen. Sarhat Qadir said a policeman and a civilian died in the blast, and that most of the wounded were policemen. <P class="heading heading4 left margin-right-12">Loading... </SPAN> Comments Weigh In Corrections? [/url] Col. Salam Zangna, a security official in Kirkuk Hospital, confirmed the deaths and said about 60 others had been injured. “My children are waiting for me to come with the salary today in order to buy school bags and stationery,” policeman Mirwan Sadiq said. “Instead the family will receive sad news about me.” Sadiq had been standing in line near the bank’s front door when the blast knocked him down and into a wall. He was among those wounded in the attack. “These merciless terrorists do not differentiate between military and civilians,” Sadiq added. Kirkuk is located 180 miles (290 kilometers) north of Baghdad. The city has for years been rife with tensions among Kurds, Sunni Arabs and Turkomen who all claim rights to the oil-rich land. Security officials across Iraq are often the target of deadly attacks — in part because militants accuse them of working with U.S. forces who are training them. Attacks on security forces have stepped up in recent years as extremists attempt to highlight Iraq’s continued vulnerability ahead of a planned U.S. troop withdrawal by the end of the year. A police officer was also killed Thursday by gunmen on a motorbike in Baghdad, officials said. Separately, an employee for Iraq’s government-run TV channel died Thursday from gunshot wounds he sustained in an attack late Wednesday, police and hospital officials said. Officials in Baghdad spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to release the information. Meanwhile, lawmaker Ziyad al-Tharib said a former electricity minister who was arrested on Wednesday for questioning about alleged corruption was released Thursday. Attempts to reach Raad Shalal about his arrest were unsuccessful. Al-Tharib said authorities sought details about alleged corruption at the ministry in 2007, before Shalal headed it. Shalal was arrested with a warrant Wednesday issued by the government’s integrity commission after he refused to answer several police requests for an interview. Shalal was fired in August after being accused of failing to follow guidelines in signing deals worth $1.7 billion to build power stations in Iraq. Both al-Tharib and Shalal are members of the Sunni-dominated Iraqiya political coalition. ___ Yacoub reported from Baghdad.

Iraqi Legislature charges regional states with fighting Iraqi palm-dates 9/29/2011 10:32 AM KARBALA / An Iraqi legislature has charged some regional states with “fighting Iraqi palm-dates, through spreading rumors that they are not safe for human consumption, due to their exposure for radiation.” “There are certain states, fighting Iraq since the beginning of its political change in 2003, aiming to besiege it, in order to force its political, democratic and economic failure, because it undermines their Royal and Prince’s position,” Legislature Fuad al-Duroky told Aswat al-Iraq news agency. “Those states are besieging Iraq on the agricultural level, including launching a war against its palm-dates, in order to prevent its revision its position as the world’s first palm-dates exporter in the world,” Duroky said. The Iraqi Legislature said that “those states are spreading rumors that Iraqi palm-dates are exposed for different radiations, due to the wars, waged by Iraq’s former regime, and are not safe for human consumption,” charging that “those states buy Iraqi palm-dates, repeat its canning and exporting it for world markets, claiming that they are of their own production, a policy aimed at the destruction of agriculture in Iraq.” http://en.aswataliraq.info/Default1.aspx?page=article_page&id=145075&l=1

A Kuwaiti lawmaker has dismissed demands by more than 100 Iraqi parliamentarians to their government to reject the current United Nations border demarcation between Kuwait and Iraq By Habib Toumi, Bureau Chief Published: 15:14 September 29, 2011 .ie8 { padding-bottom:0px !important; } [/url]var addthis_config = {"data_track_clickback":true}; Manama: A Kuwaiti lawmaker has dismissed demands by more than 100 Iraqi parliamentarians to their government to reject the current United Nations border demarcation between Kuwait and Iraq. An Iraqi parliamentary bloc last week said that it was signing up lawmakers to force the government to call for a review of the border agreement “reached under pressure from the US”. “We are used to reading or hearing statements by Iraqi individuals or groups regarding some cases related to Iraqi-Kuwaiti ties just like we are used to the Kuwaiti government’s low key response to such statements,” MP Ahmad Al Saadoun said. “This eerie silence cannot be accepted while Iraqi MPs continue making such statements in regards to Security Council Resolution Number 833/1993 and the call for what they describe as friendly talks between Iraq’s and Kuwait’s parliaments to redraw the borders,” he said, quoted by Kuwaiti daily Kuwait Times on Thursday. Article continues below window.onload=initial; The veteran lawmaker said that “it is necessary to confirm that neither Kuwait’s parliament nor Kuwait’s government has the right to discuss this subject after it was decided by UN Security Council Resolution 687/1991 in regards to the ceasefire which was issued on April 3, 1991 and following resolutions.” "The Republic of Iraq has deposited its compliance document and the procedures the Security Council asked for in its resolution 949/1994. It thus became a UN document," he said. Iraqi protesters have this month staged demonstrations to demand "the nullification of the UN resolution related to the demarcation of the Kuwait-Iraq border." A controversy over the construction of the Mubarak Port in Kuwait has recently erupted between politicians and parliamentarians from Kuwait City and Baghdad amid concerns it would degenerate into a deep crisis, particularly that several vexatious and thorny issues between the two countries have not been settled. On Tuesday, Iraqi media reported that Baghdad was taking drastic measures to limit trading with Kuwait. According to the reports, Iraq will decrease the number of trucks crossing the Safwan border point from 2,000 to 60 a day, and to increase fee dues for trucks from Kuwait to $100. http://gulfnews.com/news/gulf/kuwait/kuwait-lawmaker-slams-calls-for-border-demarcation-nullification-1.881473

KIRKUK / Aswat al-Iraq: Iraq’s oil exports through the main oil pipeline, carrying Iraqi crude through Turkey, has stopped entirely, due to leakage, caused by erosion of the of the main line close to Salahal-Din Province, a source at Iraq’s North Oil Company in Kirkuk reported on Thursday. “Oil exports stopped from Kirkuk since Wednesday morning, across the Iraq-Turkey oil pipeline, because of a case of leakage of crude oil from the main line," the source told Aswat al-Iraq news agency, noting that the "leakage happened at the limits of Shirqat township of the province of Salahal-Din." <BR style="mso-special-character: line-break"><BR style="mso-special-character: line-break"> He said that technicians were sent to the scene to replace the eroded part of the oil pipeline.

The Iraqi Oil Ministry has announced amendments to the contracts for the fourth oil licensing round after complaints from participating companies, reports AKnews. The Ministry’s Director of Contracts and Licenses, Abdulmahdi al-Amidi [Abdul-Mahdy al-Ameedi], said that a final formula will be issued before the beginning of the negotiations in November. “These contracts purchased by the companies are not final,” Amadi said. The Ministry has already revised the fee structure for these contracts. The Iraqi Oil Ministry had presented initial contracts for 12 oil and gas sites in Iraq to 46 foreign companies intending to participate in the bidding. http://www.iraq-businessnews.com/2011/09/28/oil-ministry-announces-amendments-to-new-oil-contracts/
