Popular Post Adam Montana Posted July 8, 2015 Popular Post Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 Hey hey hey! Sorry it's late in the day friends! My internet was out earlier and that threw a big 'ol monkeywrench in my day... not to mention spending a few hours on the phone listening to government "hold" tunes and a few other things. No problems now, though, I am back online and back on track! I took last week off from doing the weekly update, but I didn't stop studying the news or communicating with my people. As I suspected, Ramadan once again seems to be the killer of all things great in the story of Iraq's journey "Back From Saddam"... but that's not all that bad. It's just a matter of time, as most things are. In this case, the "time" we are looking at has a defined end, and that end is July 17th. With that said, it's still Ramadan... so here's the Q's! ============================================== LAC got the email re update,but can't find my way to it - the link in email just goes to the main chatlog - help? I'm guessing that was a general email, not a specific chat link. If you click this link, then look on the right side of the page you should see a button that says "follow this forum" - if you click that, you'll get a notification when new threads are posted.z TexasMike1958 Hello Adam, hope you enjoyed your break from the madness. A number of weeks ago, your contacts were telling you that things were about to happen. What are your contacts telling you now??? No change since a month ago Tex! We're looking good, but Ramadan is here, so... Chartman17 How is the Iraqi "man on the street" doing with no money? If the Iraqi "man on the street" has a debit card, what about us? Any new things happening with OGIT? All the best to you and your great staff. The Iraqi man on the street is probably less concerned about an RV than us, because he has probably lost faith in his politicians a long time ago... but he will be happy for any benefit he receives from their actions, just like we will. OGIT is solid. chess ADAM: A little concerned that, as it appears, the Iraqis have no will to fight. Unlike the Kurds, of course. Seems like the consequences of this non-action sets our RV hopes back? Your opinion, please. I'm seeing a lot of articles recently to the contrary. ISIS stronghold capital surrounded by Kurds and allies Peshmerga stop 600-strong ISIS attack south of Kirkuk That was just from a quick search - you can find more if you look. Candy01 Adam, In your June 24th chat, you said you were NOT too optimistic about the HCL being passed soon! Are these STILL your feelings now? Any timeframe of WHEN you think this would finally get DONE? Thanks Much! I'm not optimistic about anything right now because Ramadan... well, because Ramadan. I don't know why, but I always read your caps in a SQUEALING voice. Please stop SQUEALING at me mexican5110 Ha Adam wanted to know if you have heard of any prospects in Cuba ? I have been seeing lot of activity and it seams like a good investment for building hotels and all new construction as well as updating telecommunication if things keep moving forward . I think it was in the 50 when it was hot and doing good not shore on that just reference the godfather movie. I think it will be just as good as Dominican in the next couple of years . I believe the Dominican is not depending on the US for gas now, when I was there they were planting a lot of sugarcane fields and I was told that soon the Dominican will no longer need to buy from the US. Both seem like grate places to get in on before were are pushed out by the big corporations . Thanks again for all you and the rest of the people here at DV do look forward to the upcoming RV. Hey Mex, thanks for the thoughtful post - if you're looking for investments in Cuba, I have nothing. I'm not saying there's no opportunity there, I just haven't personally invested the time to find it, and I will never recommend anything unless I've personally been involved. Dominican Republic is another story - I've been pretty active there and a few other central america locations, and I'll be sharing those with the VIP members as they come along. coorslite21 Hope this isn't out of place........we all have a story........so Adam........how did you first get interested/involved in the IQD????......was it some one????......or something you heard??????..........please share..........also......please.........each.....of you...(me included).....respond with your story....after Adam posts.... and in conclusion.....parenting advice.....how in the world are you going to rein in that crazy daughter of yours........the infamous Hannah Montana?????Thanks......... How did I come into the IQD? That's a long story that needs to be started at 9 AM or earlier, on a beach, in flip flops and tank tops, with nothing on the calendar. I'm not that lucky today Regarding Hannah... SMH. :smh: I blame it on her mother. DinarThug Who Is This Mighty SandFly - And How Can We Possibly 'Thank' Him ? sandfly WEL,,, WHEN IT'S OVER LETS HAVE A DRINK ARE TWO. I don't think I need to add anything to those two posts! ======================================== That's it for the questions, so I'll just leave you with this one thing - we're almost done with Ramadan. It's possible for something big to happen in the next 10 days, and if it does I'm going to be the first one in your inbox, phone, text, and I might be the first one in the chatroom as well. But if Ramadan goes like it normally does, things just slow down over there. Negative Nancys like to say "oh nothing ever gets done", but I disagree - a LOT has been accomplished in a very short time over the last 6 months, and I'm optimistic about the situation. I'm looking forward to seeing things pick up pace again... but not in the next 10 days. Give it a week and a half, and then let's see what happens. I plan on doing the regular weekly update on next Wednesday. It might be a short one, but that's up to Iraq. 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaymar11 Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 Adam are you sure? The Dominican Republic? I can think of one word - HURRICANES. It only takes one to ruin everything. Plus, it is not good to live on any island. I like Ecuador though. Just saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sage449 Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 Today, I'm feeling like a "negative Nancy." So low could sit on a piece of paper and swing my legs. Bummer - guess I'm just mega-tired of waiting - usually I'm pretty upbeat and even Luigi makes me laugh - not today. Thanks though for keeping us on the straight and giving us reasonable intel. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chartman17 Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 Thank you Adam. My thoughts are that the 17th seems like a really, really, good day for an RV! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowGlobe7 Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 Missed this yesterday....thanks for covering for me ROD!!! I also believe things are moving....Please remember what a mess Maliki had mad of things over there....they have to straighten out his mess....get rid of all his cronies....and then at the same time make progress with silly things like infrastructure, banking laws, creating a REAL gov (not the one Maliki set up) and things we prob will never know about. I still have confidence in Iraq 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
