[Iraq’s Economy: Floating Over Oil and Turbulences]

What's sad is everyone else in the world knows what Iraq has, and what's possible. But unfortunately, the corrupt country of Iraq knows only one way and the corrupt are very wealthy with no consequences. So, we need to ask ourselves; If you could steal and kill with no response, why would you change things? It kind of sounds like what's happening in our country doesn't it! Its very sad. the only way I see any change is what the Iraqi people are starting to do now, which is to rebel and fight until maybe, just maybe, they might be able to crack that wall of corruption to a point where they can live somewhat of a normal life. I say somewhat because it will never be free from the scum that keeps the people down. Again, it sounds familiar.

[Protesters storm the Presidential Palace in Baghdad, Iraq.]

But don't worry, Frank the snake oil salesman says that the politics have nothing to do with the Dinar and we are on the cusp of greatness! Well, if he says it, we can all relax.  Tell that to the Iraqi people that were killed and are on the streets fighting for their futures. 

[Protesters storm the Presidential Palace in Baghdad, Iraq.]

WTF is Sadr doing now? What a mess!!!!!

[Adviser: Muqtada al-Sadr remains silent, and mediations by political forces are untrue]

Agree! Why is it that we've seen this over and over again, And everytime Barzani goes to Bagdad, he leaves with NOTHING RESOLVED! I get so damn aggravated! I can't imagine how the Iraqi people feel. I've said before and i'll say it again, politics are the ultimate evil in this world and greed and corruption are here to stay forever. We the people, are doomed and what is happening now all over the world, is the sign we dreaded would happen in our lifetime. Greed! Greed! Greed!

[Postponing the holding of the Iraq Forum for Dialogue and Development until the beginning of next year..Document]

In a way, its karma for the gurus (Frank26, Mark Z, etc.) who call it every week. Its getting obvious that we will not see any movement with the Dinar until next year if at all. Sadr is pushing, but it looks more and more that he's a hit wall of corruption that is more powerful than he. There will always be something that stalls forward movement. The corrupt ignore the citizens in every way. It will take a civil war to see possible change, that is not that far away in my opinion. I read where that snake oil salesman, Frank 26 said that the parliament has been dissolved for months. If thats true why doesn't he prove it. But, As we know thats just not true and he can't prove it, only saying that his "boots on the ground" said it. The finance minister resigning is not a good thing. That will only give them a reason to stall even more. What a sad state they are in. Come to think of it, we are in the same boat and it sucks!! Looks like another Christmas without the prosperous gift that we all hope for. I hope I'm wrong, but i don't think so.
