Raleighwood Posted April 11, 2013 Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 No wonder people gave up on you and trying to discuss this matter with you. Do you always get so defensive and name call when people ask you a question that might nullify your ignorant statements? I was trying to get you to actually think by leading your brain into a different train of thought, one that would help you come to a more concise and accurate conclusion on the information YOU presented because what you have posted, and what you got from it are two different things. I apologize for trying to make you think. Its clearly an exercise you are not capable of completing. Please do continue with your misguided assupmtions. It will at least be entertaining to read.

dontlop Posted April 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 they gave up because they cannot prove it false .. you can not say kuwait did not revalue because their official exchange rate did not change then say the swiss dinar did not revalue when its official exchange rate did change you can not prove it otherwise either .

powerpager Posted April 11, 2013 Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 So while we wait for things to calm down so they can RV, 10 tons of gold are stolen and 16 people killed by a bomb. We are suppose to be close enough to hear "SOON" but instead of finishing or accomplishing anything they want 2 months vacation off. Who in the world takes 2 months off when the people you represent are living in a toilet. There is no way it will RV this year !!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontlop Posted April 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 (edited) saddam ordered the kuwait dinar to be exchanged 1 kuwait dinar for one saddam dinar .. saddam gave kuwaitis till october 6th 1990 .. to exchange in all their dinars for iraqi dinars ,, and after that the kuwait dinar was demonetized as worthless paper . since he was incharge .. during that time frame the kuwaiti dinar was worthless by decree.... so i guess when he was removed by coalition forces ..the kuwaiti govt took over kuwait again and by decree they reinstated the old exchange rates for the kuwaiti dinar ..so i guess the kuwaiti dinar was revalued from zero to over 3 dollars .. reinstated.. revalued ,,,,no difference .. so i wonder if its fair to say the kuwait dinar didnt revalue after it was ordered worthless as of october 6 1990 by saddam who was incharge of kuwait at the time like the cpa was incharge of iraq at the time in 2003... when they ordered the swiss dinar to be re-monetized in 2003 saddam was still on the loose fighting the war ... so was saddam still incharge .. the kuwait govt was gone too .. so was kuwait govt still incharge one or the other was revalued kuwait dinar ..or swiss dinar ..both were demonetized if saddam being in control of kuwait gives him the authority to monetize .. de- monetize by decree like the cpa had authority to do so by decree Kuwait's Currency Declared Invalid by Iraq With AM-Gulf Rdp, Bjt TERRIL JONES , Associated Press Sep. 24, 1990 4:42 PM ET NICOSIA, CYPRUS NICOSIA, Cyprus (AP) _ Iraq, underscoring its control over Kuwait, has declared Kuwait's currency invalid and set a deadline for all who hold it to exchange it for Iraqi money, the government said Monday. Iraq will reimburse those who possess Kuwaiti dinars with Iraqi dinars on a 1-for-1 basis, the government said. Those who hold Kuwaiti dinars have until Oct. 6 to exchange it for Iraqi currency, said the announcement, carried by state Iraqi News Agency. After that date, Kuwaiti dinars will be considered worthless, the Baghdad government said. Iraq has methodically dismantled Kuwaiti institutions following its Aug. 2 invasion and annexation of Kuwait. Iraqi authorities have officially disbanded Kuwait's government, military and national airline, and call Kuwait Iraq's 19th province. The currency measure was taken ''to facilitate transactions throughout Iraq and ending duality in the monetary dealing,'' the government said. http://www.apnewsarchive.com/1990/Kuwait-s-Currency-Declared-Invalid-by-Iraq-With-AM-Gulf-Rdp-Bjt/id-978b923d961916791ee3c34fce20be34 alot of strange things happen by decree if your making the case for the swiss dinar not revaluing .. how can you make a case that the kuwait dinar did not .. i suppoose you can say the official rates never changed on the kuwait dinar .. but then how can ya defend the swiss dinar after saying that .. since the official rates did change for the swiss dinar its a bunch of bla bla bla ... unless someone can show the swisss dinars official exchange rates at the central bank of iraq and had official exchange rates before the october 2003 decree ,, and after 1990 demonetization of the swis dinar .. i have yet to see anyone post that official exchange rate for the swiss dinar from the cbi during the 1990s Edited April 11, 2013 by dontlop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RVPleaseToday Posted April 11, 2013 Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 (edited) dontlop, you keep saying the same things over and over. Bottom line, what are you trying to prove by all of this stuff you keep posting? What does any of this have to do with the current dinar and RV? The history is interesting, but in no way bears on the current situation in Iraq. Nothing is the same today. The CPA no longer exists.

dontlop Posted April 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 (edited) what im saying is currencys change in big ways over night by decree and foriegn reserves are not a factor ,, as demonstrated by the swiss dinar .. unless someone can show where the reserves were turned over to the cbi justifying the value of the swisss dinar and giving enough reserves to back all those bremmers they recieved .... where the reserves would of been kept that backed the swiss dinar since thers only one central bank of iraq ...there was nothing to back the swiss dinar to exchange it for 150 bremmers for one swiss . i was just tired of hearing the lopsters say it never happened before .. and we all saw who it was that argued that it never happened it did happen.. in recent history .. and with out getting out books .. its hard to tell how many times this has happened throughout history .. things were not logged onto the internet through out history .. we will never know how many times this has happened .. so just to say it never happened before .. id like proof that its never happened before before i believe that .. its just a referance .. we all know what has happened through out history has no bearing on iraq .. so that cannot be used to support a lop or a revaluation. so as long as i dont hear it any more i wont bring it up any more .. but if it does .. i wanted to log it all on the net ...so i can reference it if anyone wants to argue the point .. ill present the information and back it up .. and i will request that same referances from those who say differently . its a log of info .i can use this information in the future until someone puts up verifiable legitimate sources that prove different .. and i wont be searching the internet next time .. ill simply recall these links off these posts if theres proof otherwise please post it not just a bunch of no it didnts link please .. when this is all over ill write a final thesis on it ... so far i got nothing proving other wise .. either the kuwaiti dinar or the swiss dinar revalued cant have it both ways my final thesis will delete the arguements made by everone that wasnt verifyable ..

RVPleaseToday Posted April 11, 2013 Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 "what im saying is currencys change in big ways over night by decree and foriegn reserves are not a factor ,, as demonstrated by the swiss dinar .." dontlop, the situation with the Swiss dinar shows no such thing. Folks in the North who held and still used the Swiss dinar broke even. They didn't make anything. The CPA, by their decree, effectively said, "Yesterday, your Swiss dinar had a purchasing power such that you could buy 150 bags of camel snacks when the Saddam dinar would only buy one. Today, we have introduced a new dinar, so today we are going to give you 150 new dinar for each Swiss dinar so you don't lose anything and can still buy the same number of bags of camel snacks. As soon as they exchanged their Swiss dinar for New dinar, a dinar became a dinar. They didn't make a profit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontlop Posted April 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 (edited) ya cant say they made nothing ,, they made the reserves that now sit in the central bank that backs up that worthless swiss dinar .. it was a piece of paper .. that very few people didnt exchange during the exchange period . it was backed by nothin .. now it is backed by something . they gained all those reserves .. in the name of a demonetized swiss dinar Edited April 11, 2013 by dontlop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dontlop Posted April 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 i guess you can do that with any currency . demonetized or not .. no foriegn reserves are necessary to back it up .. heck they can just come out and say the bremmers are worth 500 hundred times what they are worth ,, no need to show reserves backing it .. unless you can show the kurds brought with them gold or foriegn currency backing their demonetized swiss dinars and turned those reserves over to the cbi along with those demonetized swiss dinars for the exchange in 2003 ,, your saying no reserves are necessary they can just by decree a currencys worth and as long as they all play along ,, it is what it is .. but you wouldnt say that .. or i guess you just did nothing backs a demonetized currency ..not one penny at the central bank .. and they are the only one with authority to issue legal tender Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dontlop Posted April 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 (edited) yes ... the us sent over 4 billion dolars from the federal reserve bank in new york that were frozen funds of saddams .. but you got to remember those were not swiss dinars .. the swiss dinars were backed by nothing but a decree of someone with out legal authority ,, in northern iraq . but they were not legal tender anywhere in iraq .. which means nothing was backing them up by the cbi ..every penny was backing the saddam notes swiss dinars were demonetized .. i got an idea for ya .. when the bremmers have their exchange period .. dont exchange your bremmers till after they are demonetized and see how much you get for them ..tell them how they are worth 150 times more since they quit printing them . see what happens and get back to us heck wait 13 years after the bremmers are demonetized ... and all iraqs reserves are switched over backing the new dinars and tell them you want to exchange them in for 150 times what the new rate is .. tell them you decree the value yourself .

dontlop Posted April 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 40 bilion not 4 bilion .. i believe 4 billion was the cost to print up all those bremmers The money came from an account held at the New York Fed called the “Development Fund for Iraq” which was made up of billions of dollars in Saddam Hussein’s financial assets that had been frozen under various US and global sanctions regimes. They weren’t taxpayer dollars, but the US government was responsible for making sure they got where they were going. The CPA official was a stocky, middle-aged naturalized American citizen of Lebanese descent who was born in Saudi Arabia. His first name is Basel. At his request, CNBC has agreed to withhold his last name from this story. Basel ferried cash in Baghdad for the CPA and the American embassy from 2003 until 2008—all told handling, he said, about $40 billion in cash. His job made him the very last American to see that money before it disappeared into the vaults at the Central Bank of Iraq. And it may have made him the only person in the history of the world to oversee the movement of $40 billion in a combat zone. http://www.cnbc.com/id/45031100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dontlop Posted April 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 actually it does nothing to make anything happen .. but it does show that by decree . a demonetized currency can be given an official exchange rate and it doesnt have to be backed up by any thing .. if that can be done with demonetized money with nothing backing it up .. just think what they can do with the bremmers which is legal tender by decree ... what ever they choose i guess . i was just looking for any kind of substanciated information something backed up by documentation that i can read you know with a link ..from people who say with out backing up what they say .. its never happpened before ,, or its got to be backed by reserves to rv .. i say it has happened .. they say it hasnt . and they cant stay away from this topic ... but they cant prove it wrong . i guess thats why we use the term speculation . .. so i guess no one should be attacked for speculating .. unless they can back up what they say like if some guy says it is going to rv tommarro .. and hes attacked without proof it wont rv tommarro whats the difference between him and the one who says it wont rv .. they are both speculating ..or next month .. next year .. or after this law is passed .. or they get out of chapter 7 . or what ever there reason for saying its going to rv .. now some peoples screen names are known for daily calling for rvs .. we all know they are just full of it .... so its not even worth going there and being serious and attacking them.. its a joke .. some day they may be correct and they will say .. see i told ya ..lol.

dontlop Posted April 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 this makes ya wonder The New Iraqi Dinar (NID) - a free floating currency - was introduced in January 2004 together with a new monetary control system. There are no restrictions or taxes on the purchase or sale of currency; the CBI carries out a regular currency auction in order to stabilize the exchange rate, which now stands around 1300 NID to the US $. The NID is fully convertible and there are no restrictions on capital flows. http://www.iraqitic....ironment_ar.php thats why i posted this ... is there any proof that the dinar is pegged ... is there an official anouncement by the cbi that it is pegged .. i saw it changed a couple times since 2003 . and all i can find is an imf statement that its has a stablized arrangement .. whats that supposed to mean .. they stablize their exchange rates with auctions ? heck all that talk is way above my pay scale >> trillema and impossible trinity ,<<< ill keep looking it over ..

dontlop Posted April 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 Lacking effective control on the free movement of capital, the Impossible Trinity asserts that a country has to choose between reducing currency volatility and running a stabilising monetary policy: it cannot do both. As stated by Paul Krugman in 1999:[8] “ The point is that you can't have it all: A country must pick two out of three. It can fix its exchange rate without emasculating its central bank, but only by maintaining controls on capital flows (like China today); it can leave capital movement free but retain monetary autonomy, but only by letting the exchange rate fluctuate (like Britain – or Canada); or it can choose to leave capital free and stabilize the currency, but only by abandoning any ability to adjust interest rates to fight inflation or recession well iraq can just keep blaming everything on shabbs and see how that works out ... id like to see what they came up with after the standby agreement ended ,,, they said they were working on its exchange regime.. and that was why they gave them that extension that ended at the end of february .. and i noticed the pairings got alot more movement after it ended.. im waiting for that report . i look alomost every day and am on their e-mailing list . for iraq publications .. maybe by the end of the second quarter i do know reading that brings ya back to earth ./ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontlop Posted April 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 . the only way i would care about its exchange regime is if i wasnt expecting a rv .. and counting on this slowly growing .. .. that would suck if you were hoping for slow growth and it doesnt move for 3 years . .dollarize .....rv.....de-dollarize .. i dont care if they float it or peg it afterwards i hope its pegged afterwards so it maintains its value long enough to cash out . then they can float who cares .
