An official security source said on Monday that the Nineveh Operations Command rejected a letter to the Iraqi government to unload the large trucks at the crossing with the province of Dohuk in the province of Kurdistan by small trucks.

The source said that the Nineveh Operations Command rejected a book issued by the National Operations Center after it was brought by the operators of the trade exchange in Flvail on the Mosul Dahuk road north of the city, forcing large trucks to unload their cargo into small load trucks under the pretext of not carrying bridges in Mosul.

I seriously believe what we see in Iraq is for the most part scripted, I think we will see the changes when the powers that be decide its time. What we see in their news and what actually happens behind the scenes are very different. I do 100% that when this event happens (RV) everything will come together

We are getting closer to Brexit. Mrs May has promised on our news today that we will leave the EU on time. Brexit is going to cause shockwaves across the world. An RV of the Iraqi dinar will cushion that shockwave in my opinion
