  1. Obama may be doing the right thing

    What we are seeing is the results of the usa not getting completely involved

    There may be a reason

    In my opinion

    Not getting involved outside the strategic framework agreement means they got to defend themselves

    They have humans too that can stand on the line and fire a rifle

    There is no need for us to send our troops while they just run away

    A lot of people call out all Muslims as terrorists and blame them all, the Muslims say we are not all like them

    Well

    Prove it

    What we are seeing is the Muslims going out and killing the disease

    Jordan is kicking their rears with jets , then standing their ground at their border waiting for these so called jihadists

    Bring it on

    So if they can defeat this disease themselves Muslims will gain respect from those who put them all in the same boat

    I say stay out and let them pick up a weapon and destroy the terrorists and quit running away

    Show the world there are good Muslims

    King of jordan is setting a good example calling them out he's not going to wait around for isis to grow syria needs to have a major ground assult on their invaders , iraq needs a major ground assult on the invaders

    Turkey needs to bomb the crap out of isis and put thousands of troops on its borders too

    Iran the same thing

    Saudi Arabia too but I doubt them I think they feed the terrorists financially and militarily

    Lebanon needs to join Egypt needs to join libya needs to join Pakistan needs to join

    Why should we need to join they got a billion Muslims run it for their lives from the terrorists where ever they show up

    It's time for them to load up and protect themselves and vindicate themselves

    The strategic framework agreement calls for the removal of U.S. troops by 2013 and the support we give is to be training and supervision.

    Not go back to iraq and fight all the wars for the rest of their lives

    They wanted us out

    We left

    They wanted out of chapter 7

    Their out

    They cheered the usa leaving

    They cheered getting out of ch7

    They say they can handle their own affairs

    Well

    Handle them

    Put your sons on the front line

    A hundred " million " people lost their lives in ww1 and ww2

    They ran into enemy fire until they won

    How many Muslims helped get rid of hitler ?

    I agree with this philosophy whole heartedly. The only problem is, they have been having these same wars over and over again since the beginning of time. When are they going to sort it out?
  2. +1 , yet I would go camaro when it finally drops the new lt1 in their.

    I had a 2014 45th anniversary cameron and traded it in on a genesis r-spec.   wish i coulda kept both, but i decided i was getting too old to sit 2 inches off the ground and try to hold my coffee while i was shifting................man i'm getting old!

     

    or maybe just too fat!

  3. "the process of replacing the currency after deletion of zeros requires big money, and Iraq is unable at this time to do these procedures."

     
    This i do not like at all.  printing new money costs a lot of money and i really hope that's not what they are talking about.
  4. I tend to agree with you but Im wondering how they are going to move to a more economically open market economy without moving to article 8 with their currency.  Maybe they can I dont understand it.  Seems to me if the private banks are going to start operating like banks in other countries and they plan to implement tariffs and new taxes and everything else these economic laws will bring wont they need an international rate for the dinar?  Not a sanctioned program rate?

    this is what i was pondering as well.  not to sure about it.

     

    and on a side not, i see things getting real shakey in this transistional shift.  could be a lot of problems in the streets before things start to improve.

  5. I probably don't know what i'm talking about but..........i like the idea of a managed float.  if they could control a slow steady rise in the value, it would eliviate a lot of the problems of a currency that is suddenly hundreds of times more valuable overnight.  Just my thinking..........................

  6. I so do not like Iraq's economy being tied to oil.  It is one of the most speculative commodities in the world.  Notice how the minute the oil refinery union went on strike, gas prices jumped by $0.20 the next day.  That's not how the reality of it is suppose to work.  when the price of crude moves, it usually takes about 3-6 weeks for the prices to reflect at the pump (under normal circumstances)  but with futures speculation it can jump or decline astronomically within days.

    I SOO HATE IT!!!

  7. The more i think about it, the more i agree with DL.  How in the world could they adjust the decimal 3 places on the nominal value for the US dollar and no other country?  If they go international and revalue their currency, it will have to be in correllation to every other currency in the world as well.........ie: (like dontlop said)  if they move the decimal 3 places, will the yen be worth $8.40 to the dinar?  it just doesn't make sense, and seems to be a catastrophic headache throughout the currencies of the world.  Every currencies value has to move in relation to all the other currencies, otherwise it's not international.

    I have no idea what they will do, and really........i wish they would do this, but it seems kinda far fetched.

  8. It amazes me (and is clear now) ........a.) how much the auctions actually control the rate, and .......b. ) how adept they have been at doing it. We've always known it was a tool for this purpose, but the effectiveness of it is pretty shocking. I wonder if they depegged from the dollar and attempted a managed float, would they still have this kind of control? Or is that a different story all-together?
