Two ways this could play out. 

   1-Abadi signs HCL as a huge televised event. 

   2-Abadi blows the crap out of Barzani.

[Synopsis]

I really like what President Trump had to say in the preceding speech to the UN General Assembly today.

 

I believe the references to Kim Jung Un are entirely accurate and warranted.

 

However, President Trump's comments failed to recognize Kim Jung Un as lil' "Fat Boy" with an exceptionally bad hair cut.

 

This Kim Jung Un Grease Ball needs to be Greased.

 

Kim Jung Un fails to realize that consuming those massive amounts of chicken wings will never give him the capability to fly.

 

I mean the guy needs an "exceeding large" motorized rocket launcher just to move him around.

 

I am concerned that Kim Jung Un's missiles are currently unreliable enough to transport lil' "Fat Boy" to the rightful destination.

 

No worries, we just need to acquire Kim Jung Un and drop ole lil' "Fat Boy" over Iran so that Kim Jung Un can realize the full potential of his very own nuclear weapons potential and neutralize Iran's nuclear ambitions at the same time. Two birds with one stone.

 

I like it.

 

Problem(s) Solved.

 

Just thinking out loud here.

 

Go Moola Nova!

Sheikh Sabah Al-Khalid said in his speech that the "important meeting" is to discuss ways to draw peace in Iraq by achieving elements of stability and reconstruction of liberated areas.

 

Deputy Foreign Minister Khalid al-Jarallah announced last month that his country had begun extensive contacts with the countries of the world, the World Bank and Iraq to host a conference for the reconstruction of destroyed areas north of Baghdad.

 

This step comes in the midst of the military operations against Da'ash, which recovered a large part of it within the battle of Mosul, about nine months ago, and ended with the announcement of Prime Minister Haider Abadi, 'victory over Daas.'

So any good news yet?

[NEPatriotsFan1]

 I listened for a long time blah blah blah we need peace and security we need help from the international community but nothing about any reevaluation of currency.  He also stated that Iraq supports Palestinians for a two state solution with Israel they will not interfere in Syria but that I rack has so many displaced people that still have nowhere to go and they need the international community support financially. It's funny cuz I  was thinking we needed the support of Iraq financially maybe I'm confused

[Tuck]

disappointing that so few nations were represented, according to the videographer's panning of the auditorium...as to substance,  his message included an overview and request for humanitarian aid for displaced Iraqis relative to D'aesh, among other things.

And yes, he did mention political solution in Syria, and 2 state - Palestinian and Israeli with pre '67 boundaries. Also wants nuclear capability.

And he was speaking with a woman's voice which I found odd  Maybe be he self identifies as a woman and since he's in New York... he feels free to be who he really is inside

Perhaps folks are so Gosh Damn Sick & Tired of listening to Iraq run their mouths for well over a decade; the attendance was not what it might have been otherwise.

The UN is still ( with all it's problems ) RESULTS ORIENTED.

 

Owing to yet more chin wagging, dramatic pleas for help and probably little in the way of plan to convince most in the UN to think anything other than Iraq still has it's head firmly jammed up their own AZZ; with a Brown Ring around their neck proving they're still in AZZ Hole Defilade. 

 

Iraq really does need to pull their finger out and get back into the Global Arena with the rest of the world. They've become so very tiresome and predictable and the Iraqi citizenry still suffers mightily had the hands of government officials more interested in lining their own pockets than launching Iraq onto the Global Stage.
