Frank26 We saw Saudi Arabia come last fall. We were excited...but now we're seeing Kurdistan/Barzani that are making moves - That are calling the shots. I don't care if Kurdistan comes down and they say Iraq has a new exchange rate because that's not who we want to hear it from. What I want to hear is Kurdistan say, 'Hey, we agree with everything in the budget...oil rights...HCL...' It is very interesting to see that the CBI website was down and IMO for an implementation with the Kurds. I told you this thing about the Kurds coming to Baghdad, the budget, it was huge. It was big...

How can they NOW pay salaries with “NEW CURRENCY “ unless they are going to implement the “MECHANISM” of the new rate? And…they said “next Sunday” which is in two days!!! Certainly sounds like they are about to make everyone who has been waiting, very happy! SMILE!! Then give Praise to the ONE Who is making it happen!
