Frank26  ...IMO when they give you the Prime Minister somewhere in that ballpark range of 30 days I believe they are going to release the new rate and new small category notes...the prime minister that the citizens want will be granted to them IMO by the United States of America at a specific time where that time-frame we believe they will release the new rate and the new currency... 

Jeff   Article Quote "The budget bill is compete and will be sent immediately to the parliament after the formation of the new government"  ...that's great news because that's just telling us everything...demonstrators demands, article 140, HCL, the budget everything with the country of Iraq is very clearly waiting on the rate change...

Jeff    ...when Iraq had their internal differences typically a representative inside the U.S. Embassy in Iraq would meet with them.  Coach them...help them resolve their political differences...after Mahdi resigned at the beginning of December just roughly a week later Salih flew to Washington to meet with Trump...Approximately 24 days later they amended the election law...and then they amended the Financial Management Law...remember this is a classified event.  That's why they have to mislead us and make Iraq look more unstable than it really is.  IMO I firmly believe the formation of the government  is complete...the budget and everything in Iraq right now is waiting on the rate change.  That has to happen first, then everything else including the budget can start...
