Jer39prov8:  I am just really EXCITED to see Iraq being removed from the sanctions list of the U.N. after Saleh’s recent visit and speech! With trade and ports officially off of sanctions they are free to trade internationally unless I’m missing something. That would mean they HAVE to have a revalued exchange rate to compete with prices & trade internationally, right? I’m excited again for the first time in almost a decade! 

I copied one of the articles from Facebook but it’s all there in black and white!
