Jeff  ...Trump made it very clear we are not removing our troops until we've been paid which means theoretically...we're not pulling the troops until Iraq has revalued the currency and it has value because we've already been paid in dinar it just doesn't have value. So until it has value we have not been paid...

Pimpy  ...it looks to me like they're just getting ready to make a huge move into rebuilding Iraq .  There are some things I want to see get done first and it looks like they're heading in some major positive ways...this is a great huge step forward for Iraq...sort term/long term I'm looking for anything that can help the economy grow, anything whatsoever because if their economy grows so does the value of their currency.
