skrappyone Posted February 7, 2015 Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 The way I see it is this. They lifted the decade old curfew, they have retaken a lot of areas that ISIS was in control of, and now they are resuming flights from all over the world. This to me, tells me, that we may not be seeing the real story as far as security in Iraq. I think if it was as bad as they lead us to believe that they would not be accepting people from all over the world. I see this also as an attempt by Iraq to try to impress the world and show that they are back in control of their country so foreign investors will move in. A lot of the news we are able to see is distorted and confusing. Unless you are there, you have no true way of knowing what is right and what is smoke. I do think they have been trying to run out investors/speculators so we would give our Dinar back and get it out of the foreign citizens hands. This will come. When I don't know. How much? I don't know. But remember, NOBODY truely knows the answers. Hang in as long as you can and let's all hope for the best. This is only my opinion of course. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
