butterfly Kurds to provide maximum security for historic papal visit: PM Barzani
https://www.rudaw.net/english/kurdistan/28022021 7 hours ago
butterfly ERBIL, Kurdistan Region — Kurdish authorities will take every precautionary measure to ensure the historic visit of Pope Francis goes smoothly, without any complications, Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) Prime Minister Masrour Barzani said on Saturday, almost two weeks after a barrage of rockets on the Region’s capital Erbil killed two people and wounded several others, including US service members.
“We are taking every precautionary measure to provide maximum security for his Holiness’s visit to our region,” Barzani told France 24 in an interview on Saturday. “This will be a historic visit for his Holiness to the Kurdistan Region and so to Iraq, and we believe this is going to shed light on the efforts that the KRG has done over the years for tolerance and acceptance of religious groups and minorities that live in Kurdistan for many, many years.”
The Kurdistan Region has been a safe haven for tens of thousands of Christians who have fled violence in the rest of Iraq since 2003, as well as millions of Muslim Arabs and Syrian refugees who have lived in the semi-autonomous region in peace and harmony for nearly 20 years. In a February 15 rocket attack on Erbil, the killed an injured included a father of two from Ramadi who sought safety in the Kurdistan Region for his family during the war against the Islamic State group (ISIS) and a refugee from Kobane, Syria who fled the civil conflict there.
In a visit to the Vatican last February, Barzani discussed with Pope Francis the Kurdistan Region’s achievements in protecting religious and ethnic minorities and hailed successes in guaranteeing freedom of worship for all faiths.
While the Kurdistan Region has been spared most of the violence that has engulfed the rest of the country in recent years, rockets have landed in the capital Erbil, fired by shadowy groups reportedly affiliated with elements within Iraq’s Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF) who are loyal to Iran.

butterfly Vatican envoy to Iraq tested COVID-19 positive: officials
https://www.rudaw.net/english/middleeast/iraq/280220211
butterfly BAGHDAD, Iraq — The Vatican's ambassador to Iraq Mitja Leskovar has tested positive for COVID-19, two officials told AFP Sunday, just days before Pope Francis' historic visit.
"Yes, he tested positive, but it will have no impact on the visit," an Iraqi official involved in the papal plans said.
An Italian diplomat also confirmed the infection.
As apostolic nuncio to Baghdad, Leskovar had been travelling across the country in recent weeks to prepare for the pope's ambitious visit, including visits to Mosul in the north, the shrine city of Najaf and the southern site of Ur.
During foreign trips, popes typically stay at the nuncio's residence, but Iraqi officials have not revealed where Francis will reside during his trip, citing security reasons.
Iraq is experiencing a resurgence of coronavirus infections, which the health ministry has blamed on a new faster-spreading strain that first emerged in the United Kingdom.
The country of 40 million is registering around 4,000 new cases per day, near the peak that it had reached in September, with total infections nearing 700,000 and deaths at nearly 13,400.
Pope Francis, as well as his Vatican staff and the dozens of international reporters travelling with him, have already been vaccinated.
butterfly sheila thanks I post what might be interesting because NOTHING is being posted about what we all are looking for. A lot of great history articles yesterday and today. It will be a great day when it is told to everyone at the same time.......we are finally done and we can go and do our exchange. In the meantime people need to enjoy life, their family, their friends, even their enemies because you never ever know when your number is drawn.
Sheila butterfly true and thanks
Dave butterfly Really good news is that CBI is maintaining an excess of 55 billion/usd......
Zig butterfly : Thanks...variety is good in a chat room...people have different interests, etc....and I usually get along fairly well with my "enemies".....lol
Zig Dave : Why do you think that is really good news?
butterfly Dave Don't misunderstand what I'm about to post...........Throughout the many years I have posted thousands of articles, nothing has changed only in the verbiage.Iraq has a very long road ahead of them. Most don't understand that. Think of a cult, you have a leader and that leader tells you what you can and can't do.....only believe in me.
That cult leader has been taken out.....okay a lot of head scratching.....what do I do now......you have people that will take advantage of the "not knowing what to do now" people.....it will take a very long time. I also read throughout my postings of the IMF saying what is going to happen to Iraq, the latest one says (paraphrasing) it hopes by 2024. Keep the cult mind in your thoughts because there are a lot of people that have moved on with their dinar and have found NOTHING has changed, when and if it does.............everyone will know. I find the history of the middle east is something I am more interested in reading then all the other stuff.
Dave like the budget going to be passed in the coming days.......
Dave IMF World BANK UNAMI all hope Iraq gets their act together.......
Dave Not sure on the Cult Stuff.......Dave Iraq seems still to be under CH7 sanctions,,,,,,still getting spanked.....Not sure if any nation has a globally traded currency while under ch7?
Dave or when Iraq is still listed as one of the most corrupt nations in the World.......with no private banking laws to protect foreign investment.....all they have are plenty of MOUs,,,,,,,still awaiting reliable electricity ......cant generate their own....
butterfly Very good Dave......very well said. Yes we must wait until the budget is passed. How many times have we heard that one?
Dave since the getgo......Them Kurds.........still want their share........
butterfly As seck talked with someone in the IMF....it is up to the CBI to or if they change their dinar value.
butterfly Darn Dave stop telling the truth LOL.
Dave oops......
Dave CBI would loose that 55 billion in a heart beat come April 6.......
butterfly I remember having this argument with a person (can't remember his name now) about how he was voting for DJT because DJT was going to change the rate of the dinar. We even exchanged phone numbers to continue our arguing. Here we are today and nothing has changed. Some people have very hard heads.
Dave DJT has a jet full of Dinar.....so the story goes
butterfly LOL OMG I do remember that also.
Dave i have hopium.....just no longer awaken at 3AM to see if i can exchange the next day …. support and sustain.a rv.....seems most reasonable to me
butterfly As I posted a few days ago, way back when all of this was going on the word was put out that buy buy buy the dinar because it is helping Iraq. Stop and think about that for a while.
Dave also.heard tell that an Interim Govt can not pass important laws.....
butterfly Just like here in the US Dave
Dave 2-3% on the spread lol not going there....
butterfly Remember back when the PM of Iraq was going to be visiting the US......everyone held their breath believing/thinking it was going to happen. NOPE....NADA....ZILCH....OL
butterfly Me either Dave....not going there.
Dave learnt my lessons from IQD team....never followed the Gurus
Dave well not much.,.....lol
butterfly Gurus are making a lot of money off of the hype, etc.
butterfly I remember when PTR decided to charge for their nonsense. I paid one month and it took me going to my bank to cancel that card because they kept taking my money once I told them NO.
Dave paid??? get the stuff fer free on the chat
butterfly Yup that was way back when I fell for their lies and met a lot of great people....Zig was one of them. Not back then Dave, you had to pay. Then Seck opened his own website----for free. We brought most of the people over there to chat and read articles, but some were still paying PTR.
Dave Glad i started with this adventure with the IQDteam my perspective........been biased from those negative Nellies?
butterfly I have been away from the IQD for many years now UNTIL Zig ask me to come here and post articles. Fortunately for him I have some time now and who knows when I won't have the time. My life is dedicated to others. Unfortunately I just found out that one of my friend's is starting on the down side of life.
Dave :Sad: but the start of a new beginning........
butterfly Official: Iran, Iraq Accelerating Expansion of Economic Ties
butterfly TEHRAN (FNA)- Secretary of Iran-Iraq Joint Economic Commission Mohammad Vali Alaeddini announced that the development of mutual cooperation has been accelerated due to the decision made by their joint commission.
"Iraq and Iran enjoy many common social, cultural, religious, political and economic aspects, and we were able to take effective steps to expand relations in different sectorsو including export of products in various fields and development of non-oil exports," Alaeddini said.
He pointed out that exports of agricultural goods, dairy products, dam construction, water and electricity, and tourism are among the areas agreed upon in the negotiations held with Iraq.
"We hope that the process of export development with neighboring countries, specially Iraq, will be stable and will continue and increase due to Iran's very desirable capacities," he added.
Economic relations between Iran and Iraq have expanded and the volume of trade has increased in recent years.
Dave USA not sanctioning Iran????
butterfly yes but not full
Dave thought electricity and gas only?
butterfly Tehran, Baghdad Discuss Transfer of Iran's Frozen Assets
butterfly TEHRAN (FNA)- Governor of the Central Bank of Iran Abdolnasser Hemmati and President of the State-owned Trade Bank of Iraq Salem Chalabi in a meeting in Tehran reviewed ways to transfer Iran’s frozen assets in the neighboring country.
Hemmati and Chalabi conferred on methods of transferring and using Iran's resources and frozen assets in Iraq.
The Iraqi official further referred to recent payments to Tehran from its frozen assets in Iraq, underlining that efforts are made to create financial channels to facilitate the process.
In a relevant development in mid-October, Hemmati announced that the volume of Iran's blocked assets in Iraqi banks stood at five billion dollars.
"Tens of billions of dollars of our assets are frozen in foreign banks and even countries that have good relations with Iran cannot cooperate with us due to the US pressure," he said at the time on the sideline of the Cabinet meeting.
Dave YIPPIE.......No good news?????????? 100s of billions.....holding out on me.......? Maliki still has some nice mansions in London

Dave terror attack by Iran.........
butterfly Just like I posted before, when you have a cult leader (if you don't understand that phrase, do some research on it) don't close your eyes because everything will be taken from you and you never even knew it.
Dave Iran would hate to see Iraq become powerful.......:Mask: LOL
butterfly Yes and they don't have someone with balls to tell them f off.
Dave Sectarianism still at play......
Zig I am starting to think that some of you don't believe that Jeff AKA "Dinar Investor", who thinks we will all be rich by April...the rate changing in late March or so...
butterfly Zig thanks for the laugh.............NOW how many times have you, I, them heard this? LOL
Dave Zig yeah because that is what Kuwait did...,...?
Zig Yes!!!....Now you understand @Dave
Dave SAM speak of the Devil!
Sam I Am I don't believe
Zig Aw come on @Sam
Sheila Zig Regardless of what Dinar Investor says, the WEF says there is going to be "Great Reset". And any Social reset always has a price tag -- or Financial Reset. So even the WEF says there's going to be a Great Reset. Good or bad for us is the real question that springs to mind.
Zig I will say that @Jeff does not come across as some kind of nut....a reasonable guy IMO
butterfly I have been watching the numbers here in this chat. the number was pretty high BUT when we started telling the truth.....BAM they all disappeared. LOL
Dave truth hurts somertimes.....
butterfly Sam I Am are you the one that had the website that exposed all of these "gurus"?
Sam I Am dat's me
butterfly Thank you.
Dave and thats what Kuwait did......yrs ago...... Sam I Am ?
Sam I Am you're welcome
butterfly Unfortunately cult minds won't believe anything that you exposed about them.
Sam I Am Kuwait did nothing except get invaded .... and after they were liberated they restored the Kuwaiti dinar as the official currency
Dave Sam I Am i recollect ...lol
Dave Mexico Russia Belarus...
Zig butterfly : Most people have to discover things on their own IMO....will not listen for a long time to reason.....
butterfly cult minds Zig
Dave butterfly no just to lazy to do any research on their own?
Zig Dave : True...Guilty as charged....lol
Sheila butterfly maybe it was like probation for time period and not a "permanent" ban.
butterfly Oh no not what I read sheila
Zig sheila : Do you ever think that this whole endeavor may be a scam??
Sheila Zig nope
Zig I do consider that
Dave scam i am ahead of the curve bought 1million/700
Zig Nobody's views ever bother me...some people get so upset....lol...I just go with the flow....
Sheila Zig U.S. has done currency devaluations to about 80 countries. War, invasion, break them financially with currency devaluations - then conquer, rebuild along with new currency valuations. This time is different because it didn't happen as fast or as quiet as this has been done historically.
Sheila Zig correct this if I am incorrect in these statements.
Zig sheila : Does someone like @Sam coming in here telling you it's a scam upset you?
Sam I Am sheila What country has revalued their currency by more than 50%?
Sheila Zig EO 13303
Sheila Zig nope
Dave Sam I Am how many rounds and yrs.......
Sheila Sam I Am Why don't you share the point you are trying to make with that question?
Zig sheila : I don't know enough to correct you about anything.....lol
Sheila Sam I Am Kuwait might the most recent.
Dave okay wallets or wheel barrows.........said it!
Zig We welcome all views in here though I am sure some don't like that....lol
Sam I Am sheila The point I am making is that if no country has ever revalued at more than 50% then essentially the dinar investment is a bet that something unprecedented is going to happen
Sheila @Sam I Am Germany back in WW2 might be another one?
Dave Zig because that is what Kuwait Mexico Belarus did......lol
Zig Dave : Why are we still in this @Dave????.....lol
Sam I Am sheila Germany didn't revalue ... they replaced the old reichmark with the deutchmark in a redenomination
Sheila Sam I Am Personal opinion, the Dinar might not be the only currency revalued as part of this "Great Reset".
Dave Zig FAITH and GOOD research!
Zig Dave : Okay
Sam I Am sheila And Kuwait didn't revalue ... they reinstated their currency at the same valuation after they were liberated
Sheila Sam I Am Did their currency increase in buying power?
Sam I Am no
Dave sheila Sams correct
Zig Sam I Am : You have seen the story about @TWW making money from the Kuwaiti Dinar....do you believe it??
Dave Saddam cleaned them out mint plates too
Sheila Dave good points. Still if I had Kuwait dinar, it's exchange value went back to reinstatement value.
Dave Zig a window of opporunity fer a few days possibly
Zig Dave : Maybe a black market?
Sam I Am Zig I don't believe any of these Kuwaiti dinar stories
Sam I Am There were probably some currency traders in Jordan who profited but that's about it
Sheila Sam I Am LOL - they why are you here?
Sam I Am because I was invited
Dave Sam I Am thought you said you still held some?
Zig sheila : I like a room with different views...lol
Dave Zig Views in Speculation........
Zig Dave : Sure...why not....
Sam I Am Dave I still have about 100,000 in LD
Sheila Zig I'm good with that. Respect.
Dave only have a view when you open a window
Zig Makes for some good conversations if people can avoid getting upset and name-calling.....lol
Dave Sam I Am Swiss notes or 50s?
Zig Of course I do understand that many people out there only want to hear that they will be rich tomorrow....
Sheila Zig hope is good for the soul, spirit
Dave Zig I do prefer the View of CBI......not the views of others as much
Zig True sheila
Zig Dave : I know that...agree but boring....lol
Dave good fer giggles......
Zig Yes
Sam I Am Dave I have some 50s, 250s, 500s, and 1Ks
Dave have some 50s too
Sheila Baltic Dry Index -- https://www.bloomberg.com/quote/BDIY:IND
Sheila Sam I Am Would love a Reinstatment. 3.22 or 3.40 or 3.80 -- Absolutely wonderful numbers.
Dave id take a nickle … at 1/10 of a cent a penny would be 1000 %ROI.....
Sam I Am sheila They're not going to do a resinstatement because their currency wasn't replaced like Kuwait's was.
Sheila Dave For dong, consistently hearing .47 cents... At devaluation, VND was over 2 dollars.
Dave Sam I Am break out the whell barrows
Sheila Sam I Am Wow, then why don't you educate us?
Sam I Am The Kuwaiti dinar was replaced by the Iraqi dinar when Kuwait was under occupation. When they were liberated the reinstated their currency. No such scenario in Iraq.
Dave Rice aint worth as much as light sweet crude
Zig @PeteV: Still like this room??...lol...you won't always hear what you "want to hear" in here....
Sheila Sam I Am Didn't the Iraqi Dinar replaced with US Dollar for people to use?
PeteV its all good
Zig Good....lol
Dave sheila IMF dont like MCP........
PeteV i hope the VND goes at the same time---wishing
Sam I Am sheila Not sure what you mean. When Saddam was overthrown they set up a provisional govt and replaced the old dinar with Saddam's mug with the new dinar valued at about 1400:1 ... then it climbed up to 1166:1 before they started devaluing
Dave sheila Thats the RV.......
Sheila Sam I Am continue
Dave missed that...But CBI did mention Delete 3 zero program later
Sam I Am sheila That's pretty much it
Dave and Cbi still mentions the 3 zero program after the sadam notes went bye bye
Sam I Am The purpose of replacing Saddam's currency was to represent a new era for Iraq post-Saddam. They wanted the country and economy to stabilize before redenominating
Dave Sam has difficulties with past present future
Sam I Am and redenominating is what "delete the zeros" means
Dave CBI subsequently came out with the 3 zero program after this redemonination
Dave geeze
Sam I Am right ... to remove the effects of hyperinflation from the 80s
Dave and continues to mention it 11 yrs after
Dave yes wallets or wheel barrows
Sam I Am you don't need wheelbarrows once you add zeros, which is what they did
Dave each ld costs 7 cents each to mint Dave fils more 1000 fils fer that coke...with no RV.....call that inflationary
Sam I Am there
Sam I Am there's no currency called a fil
Dave cost CBI 100 bucks to mint enough coins ti opay fer that coke not yet but soon
Sam I Am the fil concept is used for accounting
Dave open your window
Dave CBI said otherwise
Dave 6 cents a note........60 bucks fer enough ld notes to pay fer thatn coke then.....ouch!
Dave thats not inflationary? and make change if you provide a 25K note???????? I want change please.....That sounds really reasonable.....LOL Have i missed the boat on that Sam I Am ? not a reasonable arguement? my math wrong?
Sam I Am I didn't see any math I've never followed your logic when you start talking about cokes and smokes
Dave how much to print 1 note?
Sam I Am How much does it cost the US to coin a penny?
Dave 1 coke currently 1000dinar
Sam I Am it costs 2 cents to mint a penny
Dave notes 6-8 cents each
Sam I Am does that mean we're going to revalue the dollar?
Dave fer arguement sake 1dinar note... 6 cents
Dave https://govtrackinsider.com/it-costs-2-to-make-a-penny-and-7-to-make-a-nickel-but-cents-act-could-bring-those-costs-down-aa6aabfc9a8b
Dave what size fer them fils.....doubt they would be smaller than a cent
Sheila Dave metals
Dave yeah iqd at 1/10 of a cent......
