TNT:

Yada: Great find : "The first step is to dissolve Parliament... an extension that lays out a road map to defuse the crisis". Read this folks because it sets the path they are to follow to diffuse the situation and DISSOLVE parliament. Considering the US/UN are set to come back in if nothing is done. Their holiday ends the 16-17th. Parliament is set to meet.

Yada: Believe Kazimi will again be the PM because it limits the PM from running as PM and hence, putting the loose around the necks of the bad guys, which they don't want. This gives a list of things to accomplish before the next election but mainly, for us, once they give the interim government their authority, THE RATE WILL BE RELEASED.

TP40:  Yada..has this plan started? What do you think is the timeframe to give the interim government the power to start ?? Thanks

Yada:  Tp40,,in lieu of the reality of the UN/US coming back, there was an article that at the end of this 40th holiday, 17th, they will get this process started.

TP40: Awesome Yada .. thanks for the explanation

Yada:  OK folks the news continues to get better: "Barzani and Al-Halbousi agree to form a new government headed by Al-Kazemi" Thanks Candykisses

KaseyKo1:  Unfortunately, yada, another article came out disputing that agreement. So who knows what's really happening?

Yada:  Kaseyko, I'm of the mind they, the Framework types, will want Kazimin in place because after this temporary stint, he would not be in position to leverage the corruption files against them in the newly voted government. He will be one more and done.

KaseyKo:  Yada, I like your thinking! I'm also encouraged by just reading the article where it looks like there was some movement forward in getting Iraq accepted into the WTO.

Yada:  Agreed Kaseyko.. Believe while we were waiting for the courts to drop the ball, knowing they would, these articles are coming to light that this may be their pathway. I remember about a month ago that Maliki thought that since they had the largest block in parliament, they would form the temporary government but Sadr immediately stated, no way.

Yada:  Told my wife, in the war movies, we always knew a missile was coming in by the whistle. Believe Iraq heard the whistle of a missile coming when the country was in a uproar 10 days ago. Sadr disarmed the missile and the US/UN heard it as well. Too close.
