Wednesday Night News & Opinions @ 9:25 PM MDT - 6/03/2026

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 

 

 

6-3-2026   Reset Intelligence  Letting Iran-backed factions hold Interior or Defense is the one line Washington has drawn and the prize Tehran still wants, so the cabinet was left half-built to avoid answering it. Parliament was meant to take up the rest after the Eid al-Adha break in late May. That break has passed and the chairs are still empty...al-Zaidi is going after the factions' cash, their rifles, and their grip on Interior and Defense at the same time... Cut the money that buys the guns, take the guns, and lock the gunmen out of the ministries, and there is not much faction left to bargain with...The house is not clean yet. But for the first time in 22 years, you can see who is holding the broom.

 

6-3-2026   Stephen  Did you know you could negotiate the fees with your bank when the revolution happens?  A lot of people don't know that.  A lot of people will go to their bank and they'll be like, 'Okay, there's an 8% fee on foreign currency transactions.'  What if you had knowledge beforehand that you could actually negotiate that? What if you had knowledge that you could negotiate an 8% fee down to 5%.  How much money would that save you?  If you're talking about hundreds of thousands, if not millions of dollars, think about 3% going from 8% to 5%.  That 3% could amount to tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands of dollars.  These are little things people don't even know exist...Get prepared.  I don't want you to get screwed by the banks.

 

6-3-2026   Sandy Ingram  Will the Central Bank of Iraq keep the value of the IQD low like Vietnam continues to do?  Or will it allow the value to increase?  We don't know.  That's why [we're here] because we don't know.  Therefore we have to plan on many different levels to obtain and secure our IQD profits.

 

6-3-2026   Thom  Iraq has already moved the rate once. February 2023. 1,460 → 1,310.  No announcement.  No countdown.  No community consensus. The Central Bank of Iraq made a policy decision and it moved. Immediately. The mechanism isn't theoretical. It's already been used. The question was never can it move. The questions are when and how much?  So, let me ask you something. If the CBI moved the rate tomorrow with zero community warning , would you actually be ready?
