Mr. Harfax: "IMO - I know we aren’t supposed to post so I’ll quote. You can see the actual post if you go the Govt of Iraq’s twitter page. On their page they posted Not long ago a thread and the last part reads..
We call on the Kurdistan Regional Government to fulfill its constitutional obligations and return to the negotiating table in the public interest.
What are your thoughts on this? ~ Mr. Harfax"
MilitiaMan: They are in negotiations that need to get resolved. They are now more public about it.. That is in my opinion pressure through a brinkmanship way of doing things by using twitter. They are notorious in going to the limits.. Timing is now of a concern. Down to the wire. They are being challenged to get things sorted. There comes a time when things have to be completed or get left out. Enough is enough.. That is my view on the matter. Am I right? We shall see. ~ MM
Mr. Harfax: Thank you for the insight. I also feel it’s a bit of game-manship as we enter the final stage. Fingers crossed this is a part of their last dance..

Frank26 ...the details have been worked out for the monetary reform, those details were a long time ago. What we're seeing as far as the 20th with the Prime Minister Kazimi and our President Trump is nothing more than a table that has already been set. Kazimi's coming over to feast off of that table. It's nothing more but a formality. It's really about the investments that the United States of America is about to make in Iraq . Now there's no way we can do this unless they're Article VIII which means that they have to raise the value to be Article VIII according to the IMF. They have to make this announcement.

We had a deflationary economy under the gold standard and it worked wonderfully to keep checks and balances on world trade. . It’s the transition that is the hard part we are in right now.
In this episode of Keiser Report’s annual Summer Solutions series, Max and Stacy chat to tech entrepreneur, Jeff Booth, author of “The Price of Tomorrow: Why Deflation is the Key to an Abundant Future”.
They discuss the role of technology in causing the deflation that may lead to an abundant future, if the gains are shared.
They examine the situation with artificial intelligence and whether or not advances by China in that arena are the real cause behind the sudden tension between the United States and that nation.
Finally, they discuss how to prepare for the central banks offering more money printing solutions for the deflation they have been fighting.
