Not in our time but in God's time. Things will happen as they should. Most importantly, I hope the people of Iraq are brought to a fair and positive lifestyle for living in such a resource rich land. They have suffered greatly. I do also hope and suspect that the dinar will revalue. But even if my small investment did something to help someone there who has suffered, then it is all worth the energy I am putting into following this speculative investment.

God bless!
