Friday Early Night Opinions @ 8:44 PM MST - 8/22/2025

REMEMBER, no one really knows what will happen, or when. They're simply stating their opinions based on what they perceive to be happening in Iraq... So, take everything with a grain of salt ... RON 

 

 

8-22-2025   Militia Man  The theme is Iraq is integrating into the global financial system.  I think the evidence is quite clear.  It's almost undeniable that that's the process.  Obviously we don't know what day they're going to do that.  We're not supposed to know that and obviously we're not going to know exactly what the rate is.  We might have some good estimates.  I don't think anybody truly knows that and by rights they shouldn't know that.

 

8-22-2025   Pimpy  Article: "Inflation rate in Iraq drops to .8% in 2025"  This is really great news. That's a very low inflation rate.  Quote: "The drop in inflation rate reflects a decrease in the overall price levels which improves purchasing power of both consumers and companies..." Which is exactly what you want. You want to see the purchasing power of the Iraqi dinar increase.

 

8-22-2025   Paulette  Politicians who think that the people want Sudani for another term will start making statements that they support Sudani so that they can get elected. Sudani is on the clock to get tasks completed as Trump has said he will not support a second term for Sudani unless he disarms and dismantles the Iranian militias and ends the money laundering through Iraq banks to Iran and its agents.  Neither of these have been accomplished as of this date.

"You want to see the purchasing power of the Iraqi dinar increase."

 

I'm glad Pimpy verified this....I get so confused sometimes.

Trump better be careful what he says about Sudani because it will empower Maliki to do what ever to keep him out of office and you don’t know who the next PM will be.   Keep your mouth closed and don’t let them know what you are thinking.

Maliki is who brokered the deal to put Sudani in office

He did but Sudani did a 180 and didn’t do want Maliki or Iran wanted him to do.
