It means a lot of gurus and bull shiters 

I think it’s possible that this article is not correct about the chapter 7 bit, and that they already are out of chapter 7. Are we just a bunch of sheep believing news articles? I’m no expert. Isn’t there a different way to find out for sure?

Was their exit from chapter vii not announced previously? I am sure there is a pinned post on 1 of the forums

there is a pinned post at the top of this forum...

Didn’t they already pay Kuwait off? Or it’s just a small amount remaining.

Possibly small amount if anything, I think they entered into agreement for joint oil fields..

Me too.  I’m confused. 🤪

 

 

You might be right.

 

 

I remember when Biden was VP he made a big deal of them being released from Chap 7. 

 

 

Luckily for us we are in 2024. Does anyone have a DeLorean with a Flux Capacitor to see what 2025 looks like. 

Can I take the Delorean back and NOT buy this stuff!

Trust me, you would still buy because you would have also gone into the future and see that it RV’d. Just come back and tell us when.

I've spent a bunch of grueling time going through article after article in that pinned topic. 

 

I have not found a definitive answer. Tons of figures, plans, and projections. Of coarse the mainstay is the Iraqi art of gibberish and repetitive double talk.

So this lady is working on tax payer money that we give to the United Nations to resolve something that's already been resolved? Sounds like the Biden Administration.

Guru's didn't lie. Iraq was not entirely removed from UN Chapt 7 by the UN Security Council. They still remained under sanctions of UN Chapt 7 until they paid off all of what was owed for the Gulf War - Mostly to Kuwait. Even though the Security Council voted, Iraq still remained under UN Chapt 7 until it met all the criteria. For example, Oil-for-Food was a UN Chapt 7 sanction implementation. The reparations to Kuwait was another sanction implementation of UN Chapt 7. 

 

So while the Guru's (or most of them) didn't lie that Iraq was taken out of UN Chapt 7    back in 2013 by vote of the UN Security Council, they were never fully removed from UN Chapt 7 until the final payment to Kuwait. Even then red tape takes forever and a day to get through hence the delay. 

 

Don't confuse UN Chapt 7 with IMF Chapt 7. UN CHapt 7 is about trying to resolve conflict peacefully and IMF Chapt 7 is making fiscal rules for investment. Both need to be accomplished by Iraq.

I'm sure you meant IMF Article 7, not Chapter 7. IMF has no Chp. 7.

Article VII: Replenishment and Scarce Currencies
1. Measures to replenish the Fund's holdings of currencies
2. General scarcity of currency
3. Scarcity of the Fund's holdings
4. Administration of restrictions
5. Effect of other international agreements on restrictions

Hey Einstein's second cousin twice removed, The US takes our taxes and supports the UN more than any country in the world not to mention it is housed in the US, NY city. That's what I am talking about.

I don't care if she's from Pluto, our government wastes trillions on everything but helping the American people. The Biden administration has done nothing for the American people but put us in further debt, further danger, further from energy independence, and further from the American dream.

You guys really have to reach to attempt to make Biden look bad. Sad.

You are right.  Biden does a good job of that on his own.

I don"t have to even lift a pinky. He's doing just great on his own about that. May be the only thing he does great.
