Tishwash:  International reality alone determines the achievement of economic stability in developing countries.

Any talk about achieving economic growth or development in the third world countries remains dependent on the struggles of the great powers over the domination of the global economy, which is embodied in the game of adults through the structures of international alliances and their changes according to interests.

Sometimes you find it with this country or that and at other times you find it in the opposite, and it is this creative chaos that feeds the survival of the third world countries outside the system of economic stability.

And the tracker of the changes that occurred during the Corona era and the crisis of fluctuating oil prices downward since the end of the year 2019, as its effects intensified in the first quarter of the year 2020, and its indicator is the contraction that afflicted the global economy and the extent of the damage suffered by countries, even to varying degrees, due to the complete economic closure and semi-cessation The life that appeared.

But soon the adults reached somewhat reassuring vaccines, and economic life returned to normal in the countries of the game, and the effects continued to gnaw at the economies of developing countries.

Note now that policies and alliances have begun to change according to the higher interests of each country, and so the game continues, one day with you and one day against you, which means that the international reality alone is responsible for achieving stability here, creating and continuing chaos there.

These external factors, which are politically termed “greedy” and economically “challenges” are what define the identity of the new economic system and control the future of developing economies and emerging.

The decisions of the “eight” countries do not accept the veto. As for the decisions of the “20” countries, they only have to obey and implement. As for the rest of the economies, they must receive painful consequences and blows.

This scene depicts to us the nature and features of the new economic system based on the remnants and rubble of globalization. It does not differ from it at all. Rather, its impact will be broader and deeper. This is how the picture appears to me about the future of the new global economy.

Perhaps the ongoing regional conflicts between the developing countries are the fuel that nourishes and revives and develops the new economic system and keeps it, as I said, at the mercy of the global mood because it alone controls the determination of economic stability.

How will the developing countries and Iraq among them think in the face of this hurricane while they are preoccupied with useless conflicts, but the loss of their peoples and the survival of their economies reeling from the effects of the international mood?

So far, it has not been clear who will win the leadership of the global economy, and this is a mystery that only the hands of those who are firmly rooted in the science of political game can decipher. link

Mot:  A husband was dying to prove to his wife that women talk more than men.

He showed her a study which indicated that men use about 10,000 words per day, whereas women use 20,000 words per day.

His wife thought about this for a while. She then told her husband that women use twice as many words as men because they have to repeat everything they say.

Her husband looked stunned. He said "What????"

Mot:  Several men were in the locker room of the gym when a cell phone on a bench rang ~~~

Several men were in the locker room of the gym when a cell phone on a bench rang and a man put it on speaker and begins to talk.

Everyone in the room stopped to listen.

Man: Hello!

Woman: Hi honey, its me. Are you at the club?

Man: Yes.

Woman: I’m at the shops now and found this beautiful leather coat. Its only $2000: is it OK if I buy it?

Man: Sure, go ahead if you like that much.

Woman: I also stopped by the Lexus dealership and saw the new models. I saw one that I really liked.

Man: How much?

Woman: $90,000

Man: OK, but for that price I want it with all options.

Woman: Great! Oh, and one more thing. I was just talking to Jane and found out that the house I wanted last year is back on market. They are asking $980,000 for it.

Man: Well, then go ahead and offer $900,000. They’ll probably take it. If not, we can go to the extra $80,000 if that’s what you really want.

Woman: OK. See you later! I love you too much!

Man: Bye, I love you too.

The man hung up. The other men in the locker room were staring at him in astonishment, mouths wide open.

He turned and asked: Anyone knows whose phone is this?

Mot:  Upon arriving home, a husband was met at the door by his sobbing wife. Tearfully she explained, “It’s the pharmacist. He insulted me terribly this morning on the phone.”

Immediately the husband drove downtown to confront the pharmacist and demand an apology.

Before he could say more than a few words, the druggist told him, “Now, just a minute, please listen to my side of it…

This morning the alarm failed to go off, so I was late getting up. I went without breakfast and hurried out to the car, just to realize that I locked the house with both house and car keys inside. I had to break a window to get my keys. Then, driving a little too fast, I got a speeding ticket.”

He continued, “Later, about three blocks from the store, I had a flat tire. When I got to the store there was a bunch of people waiting for me to open up. I opened and started waiting on these people, and all the time the darn phone was ringing off the hook.”

He continued, “Then I had to break a roll of nickels against the cash register drawer to make change, and they spilled all over the floor. I got down on my hands and knees to pick up the nickels; the phone was still ringing. When I came up I cracked my head on the open cash drawer, which made me stagger back against a showcase with bunch of perfume bottles on it…all of them hit the floor and broke.

Meanwhile, the phone is still ringing with no let up, and I finally got to answer it. It was your wife. She wanted to know how to use a rectal thermometer…and, honest mister, all I did was tell her!”
