Synopsis Posted September 24, 2017 Report Share Posted September 24, 2017 (edited) Oh, Oh folks, I made an error (imagine that). Sorry, the math should be 17 billion AED / (3.6734 AED/USD) = 4.63 Billion USD. PLEASE CONSIDER THE REMAINDER OF THE POST AS ENTERTAINMENT ONLY - ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well, OK, I am going off the title of the article stating 17 BILLION Dirhams and not 17 billion USD as the text of the article implies. In my opinion, folks, this is some serious chunk of investment with17 billion Emirati Dirham so 17 billion AED x 3.6734 USD/AED = a whopping 62.45 BILLION USD Smokin'!!! Hey, and what is this small potatoe's bi'ness about 5.4 billion USD in Gubmint Loans???!!! Hmmmmmmmmmmmm......................................?????????????!!!!!!!!!! In my opinion, it is all about the investment monies. To me, this indicates the threshold of "international" and all that implies for Iraq - if not already there. Who would invest this chunk of change in an insecure investment venue with a financially sanctioned country? No mo sanctions on Iraq or what???!!! http://www.xe.com/currencyconverter/convert/?Amount=1&From=USD&To=AED XE Currency Converter: USD to AED 1 USD =3.67340AED US Dollar1 USD = 3.67340 AED ↔ Emirati Dirham1 AED = 0.272228 USD 2017-09-24 21:58 UTCAll figures are based on live mid-market rates.
