The media center explained that the two deputy presidents of the Karkh Court of Appeal, Judges Ali Hussein Jaffat, Lia Jafar, and the Deputy Chairman of the Russafa Court of Appeal, Judge Ayad Mohsen, participated in the meeting with a group of representatives of the Anti-Money Laundering Office of the Central Bank of Iraq, as well as representatives of the rest of the relevant Iraqi institutions.

Tishwash: US Extends State of Emergency in Iraq
United States President Joe Biden has extended the state of emergency in Iraq for another year, citing the ongoing instability in Iraq as a threat to US national security.
On Monday, the White House released the letter of President Biden’s notification to Congress regarding the extension of the state of emergency in Iraq for another year.
According to Biden’s letter to Congress, “to address the unusual and extreme threats to US national security and foreign policy posed by obstacles to the orderly reconstruction of Iraq, the restoration and maintenance of peace and security in the country, and the development of political administration and economic institutions,” the US president has extended the 2003 national emergency in Iraq for another year.
Resolution 13303 was issued by former US president George W. Bush after the Iraq war on May 22, 2003, to protect the Iraqi Development Fund for the reconstruction of Iraq, as well as to protect Iraqi oil products, US interests, and to lift sanctions on Iraq.
“It will allow the US president to take more steps in Iraq, including the use of emergency forces, the deployment of more troops, the imposition of economic sanctions, the suspension of certain laws and measures, or any other step to protect US national security and foreign policy in Iraq.”
The US president must notify Congress of the extension in a special letter 90 days before the expiration date.
In recent years, Iranian-backed Iraqi militia groups have called for US withdrawal from the country.
For future US and international coalition forces in Iraq, the US and Iraq have established a joint Higher Military Commission, which is a military-to-military dialogue between Iraqi and U.S. defense leaders and professionals.
Since its launch in January 2024, the three subcommittees established by the Higher Military Commission have conducted meetings in Baghdad supported by coalition members to discuss the threat of IS, the operational environment, and the capabilities of the Iraqi Security Forces.Link

Frank26 Is Iraq a member of the WTO? 'Well, Frank you say they're a member of the WTO, they qualified for it.' But do you see any official paper that tells you they're a member of the WTO. 'No.' Why not? Until you see the new exchange rate. 'But you don't have to have a high exchange rate to join the WTO. Why do you say something like that?' Because commitments were made in contracts that were guaranteed by Sudani for all these people through the WTO investments for the economic reform of Iraq.
Mnt Goat The UN, IMF and World Bank all on one day, Thursday, noted significant progress that Iraq has made in recent years, despite ongoing challenges. The reinstatement spigot has been opened. The direction is now clear.

Zimbabwe Applies For ISO Code For ZiG Currency (5/22/24)

Harambe: Zimbabwe Applies For ISO Code For ZiG Currency | Pindula (5/22/24)
Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe (RBZ) deputy governor Innocent Matshe said that the central bank is in the process of applying for an International Organisation for Standardisation (ISO) code for the Zimbabwe Gold (ZiG) currency as it moves to make the unit a stand-alone currency, reported.
ISO currency codes are three-letter alphabetic codes that represent various currencies used worldwide. These codes are essential for currency trading and international settlements.
When combined, they form the symbols and cross rates used in financial transactions. For instance, USD stands for the United States Dollar, EUR represents the Euro, and JPY denotes the Japanese Yen.
The ISO currency code for the defunct Zimbabwean dollar was ZWL.

Harambe: Zimbabwe Applies For ISO Code For ZiG Currency | Pindula (5/22/24)
Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe (RBZ) deputy governor Innocent Matshe said that the central bank is in the process of applying for an International Organisation for Standardisation (ISO) code for the Zimbabwe Gold (ZiG) currency as it moves to make the unit a stand-alone currency, reported.
ISO currency codes are three-letter alphabetic codes that represent various currencies used worldwide. These codes are essential for currency trading and international settlements.
When combined, they form the symbols and cross rates used in financial transactions. For instance, USD stands for the United States Dollar, EUR represents the Euro, and JPY denotes the Japanese Yen.
The ISO currency code for the defunct Zimbabwean dollar was ZWL.
Speaking at a breakfast meeting hosted by the Zimbabwe Economics Society in Harare on Tuesday, Matshe said:
According to our economic strategy, we believed that the success of our currency, ZiG, would depend on a limited management system, maintaining a tight monetary policy stance, controlling money supply and creating demand for the domestic currency.
This would demonstrate policy consistency, build trust in ZiG and facilitate effective communication. Let me confirm that ZiG is indeed a standalone currency.
We are currently in the process of applying for an ISO code and we expect no deviation from our initial protection policies.
Matshe claimed that Zimbabwe’s economy has been growing despite exchange rate fluctuations and inflation. He said:
It is essential to have an affordable base currency. We cannot sustain a dual currency situation indefinitely. Zimbabwe’s economy has been growing despite past instabilities, including currency fluctuations, exchange rates and inflation. However, we need to address these issues.
Matshe also pointed out that it was critical to include all sectors in currency reform, including those outside the traditional financial and banking sectors. He said:
The introduction of ZiG aimed to end the instability and create a standardised currency. Without robust reforms, our economy would not have grown significantly.
We need a framework that harnesses the potential of all sectors, including those outside the traditional financial and banking sectors.
Inclusivity is crucial and we must understand that digital finance is essential for a 21st-century economy.
We have made progress in electronic financial activities, but we need to think seriously about digitalisation.
Certainty and stability in times of crisis allow for long-term planning and investment, which is key to industrialisation.

Ending the FED: This is the Way
H.R. 8421 and its Purpose
Representative Thomas Massie’s Motivations
Key Supporters and Historical Context
Potential Impact on the Economy
A strong argument can be made that the Federal Reserve Central Banking system has enabled every financial crisis since its creation in 1913.
Initially established to stabilize the American monetary system, the Federal Reserve’s primary goal has been to control the U.S. dollar.
Over the years, the Federal Reserve has implemented strategies such as removing the dollar from the gold standard and monetizing the national debt issued by the U.S. Treasury.
Despite its significant monetary control, the Federal Reserve is not a government entity; it is a private bank owned by a collective of private board members and the largest banks in the United States.
This private ownership raises concerns about the Federal Reserve’s true motivations and accountability.
The introduction of the Federal Reserve Board Abolition Act faces formidable opposition from these powerful Banksters, who will undoubtedly fight to prevent this bill from becoming law.
This bill, sponsored by Representative Thomas Massie (R-KY), seeks to dismantle the Federal Reserve System, aiming to address the inflationary pressures that have plagued the American economy.
With substantial support in the House of Representatives, this legislation could significantly alter the nation’s financial landscape.
Introduction of H.R. 8421 and its Purpose
H.R. 8421 proposes the abolition of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the Federal Reserve banks.
It also calls for the repeal of the Federal Reserve Act of 1913, the law that established the Federal Reserve System.
This significant move aims to dismantle the central bank, which Rep. Massie and his supporters argue has been responsible for severe economic issues, particularly inflation.
Representative Thomas Massie’s Makes His Case
Rep. Massie has been vocal about his concerns regarding the Federal Reserve’s role in the economy. He argues that the central bank’s policies during the COVID-19 pandemic, which included creating trillions of dollars and lending them to the Treasury Department, have led to unprecedented deficit spending.
According to Massie, this “monetizing of the debt” has devalued the dollar and fueled the inflation that is now impacting millions of Americans.
“Americans are suffering under crippling inflation, and the Federal Reserve is to blame,” said Massie.
He believes that ending the Federal Reserve is the most effective way to curb inflation and protect the financial well-being of retirees and savers.
Key Supporters and Historical Context
The Federal Reserve Board Abolition Act is backed by several prominent members of the House, including Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ), Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO), and Rep. Josh Brecheen (R-OK), among others.
This legislation echoes previous efforts by former Representative Ron Paul (R-TX), who first introduced a similar bill in 1999 and continued to champion the cause until 2013.
Rep. Massie’s reintroduction of this bill is also complemented by his Federal Reserve Transparency Act of 2023, which aims to audit the Federal Reserve.
This dual approach seeks to both dismantle and scrutinize the central bank, reflecting a broader movement among certain lawmakers to reduce the power and influence of the Federal Reserve.
Impact on the US Economy
If enacted, H.R. 8421 would initiate a one-year period during which the Federal Reserve System would be dismantled.
During this time, employees would receive compensation, and the assets and liabilities of the Federal Reserve would be managed and liquidated. The Director of the Office of Management and Budget would oversee this process, ensuring an orderly transition.
The abolition of the Federal Reserve could lead to significant changes in the U.S. financial system. Proponents argue that it would eliminate the inflationary policies that have eroded the value of savings and increased economic inequality.
Critics, however, warn that such a drastic move could destabilize financial markets and lead to economic uncertainty.
As if we are not already in unprecedented times of financial uncertainty?
The Bottom Line
The introduction of the Federal Reserve Board Abolition Act by Rep. Thomas Massie is a bold proposal aimed at fundamentally restructuring the U.S. financial system.
With significant support in the House, this legislation represents a critical juncture for economic policy and monetary independence in America.
We all need to support this Bill with passion. Let your congressional representatives know you want to END THE FED.

Tishwash: Biden's decision to extend the emergency in Iraq protects Baghdad's money - Iraqi expert
The expert in American affairs, Professor Aqeel Abbas, confirmed that the White House’s decision, which was issued yesterday, to extend the state of emergency in Iraq, stems from economic and financial reasons, and has no military or security aspect.

Tishwash: Biden's decision to extend the emergency in Iraq protects Baghdad's money - Iraqi expert
The expert in American affairs, Professor Aqeel Abbas, confirmed that the White House’s decision, which was issued yesterday, to extend the state of emergency in Iraq, stems from economic and financial reasons, and has no military or security aspect.
He said that the United States protects Iraqi funds from seizure in accordance with this decision, as There is an unknown number of companies and entities around the world that have sued Iraq over the invasion of Kuwait, and if this protection decision is cancelled, Iraqi funds outside the country will be subject to seizure.
Aqeel Abbas, in a statement:
Extending this decision is economic and financial, not military or security. It protects Iraq from judicial rulings issued by courts in several countries against Iraq, some of which we do not know yet, because the Iraqi state did not inventory the cases filed against the backdrop of the invasion of Kuwait. Many companies were harmed at that time and lawsuits were filed in different countries.
If the US decision is not extended, many Iraqi funds will be seized, and it will be difficult for Iraq to transfer oil money to the Central Bank.
Today, the United States is the protector of Iraqi funds. The funds go to an American bank in New York and then are transferred to Iraq.
Biden stated in a letter addressed to the US Congress:
Obstacles to the orderly reconstruction of Iraq, the restoration and maintenance of peace and security, and the development of Iraq's political, administrative, and economic institutions continue to pose an extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of Iraq and to the United States.
The national emergency declared in Executive Order 13303 relating to Iraq will remain in effect after May 22, 2024 for another additional year. link

Locked & Loaded: With Blockchain, your money is locked up tight. No hackers, no scammers, no funny business. It’s like having a 24/7 bodyguard for your bank account.
The Speeding Bullet: Forget waiting days for your money to move. Blockchain transactions are fast, secure, and convenient. Getting paid and paying others is extremely quick.
Bye-bye, Big Banks: Blockchain puts the power back in the hands of the people. No more relying on those suits in the high-rises to handle your dough. You’re in control now. So be wise with your decisions.
Transparency Is Key: Blockchain is like an open book. Everyone can see what’s going down, but nobody can mess with it. That means no shady dealings or backdoor schemes.
Uncle Sam In The Crosshairs: With Blockchain, the government can’t just print money like it’s going out of style. This helps keep inflation in check, so your cash doesn’t lose its value. Factor in the gold standard and you are basically invincible.
ISO-20022, Basel ¾ Comes 589 SOFTR: We will have all the tools in the world to secure our financial independence.
This was passed by a 334-79 majority. Any political figure caught trying to vote against this will be voted out of office. It will be plain as day for those who want to keep the American people in financial turmoil.
Now I see why some are now supporting crypto/digital age. Everything will be tokenized.

Good Evening Dinar Recaps,
"The final elements for the implementation of Basel III in the EU are now agreed and will start applying on the 1st of January 2025."
Currently, we have tokenized assets and stablecoins backed by gold and other commodities moving through legislation and expected to become law at the end of June 2024.
This is forcing governments around the world to begin making decisions to implement their new digital economy. These monetary policy shifts will create credit valuation adjustments across all sectors of the market including Forex.
Countries have began moving towards bilateral trade agreements utilizing their own currencies in trade. This move will increase the demand for their currencies, yet they still need a stable price on them.

This is forcing governments around the world to begin making decisions to implement their new digital economy. These monetary policy shifts will create credit valuation adjustments across all sectors of the market including Forex.
Countries have began moving towards bilateral trade agreements utilizing their own currencies in trade. This move will increase the demand for their currencies, yet they still need a stable price on them.
This is where stablecoins come into play. Stablecoins are backed by commodities. This alone will support the need to raise the value of currencies around the world to level the playing field in trade.
For the last 4 years, trade has been disrupted and rerouted to increase the level of exports in countries around the world offering support for these new currency values that are about to come into play.
The IMF has been working with countries globally to give guidance and instruction on their countries' ability to shift into a new supply and demand regimen. Work has been done to increase Capital Requirements through commodities and increasing exports.
These measures will support new values and justification for currency valuation adjustments because their credit in the ability of doing so will be met by the above requirements.
We have a deadline for these changes to take full effect by January 1st, 2025. As you can surmise, price pressures to move into a real value between now and then are about to begin.
Look for XRP and XLM to be the first movers in the new digital economy. Their supporting actors will be ISO 20022 digital coins. These ISO tokens will be networks that will move money from one sector of the market to another.
Our movement from wire transfers to instant transfers electronically and through a quantum computer will increase money velocity. This will increase demand and increase the value and support for currencies going to higher levels.
Just holding ISO tokens and utilizing them in the new economy, with gold backing each of them, will serve as the bridge to our next economy. Commodities will be the next long-term Bull Run.
Our first RV (digital) is about to interface with traditional market assets on the QFS. This will transform our banking system and markets (paper money) into the new digital asset based trading system - the second RV. Study Smarter The Print IT Supply Chain Investopedia Deloitte

"Ripple CLO Claims The SEC Has a NODE on the XRP Ledger"
A NODE offers ways to approve and process transactions without a centralized authority.
A node validates and authenticates blockchain transactions. A Blockchain node's primary job is to confirm the legality of network transactions.
Once a confirmation is made between two digital networks through a blockchain consensus, a transaction is validated on both sides of an exchange.
A protocol brings all nodes of a distributed blockchain network into agreement on a single data set or similar data confirming the right to move forward inside a blockchain connection. Then, a digital transaction can go through for both parties.
This is done electronically and without the need of someone mediating the transaction on the QFS.
It looks like XRP and the SEC have decided to play ball together. Times Tabloid Trade Marks Ledger

Frank26 Article: "The Central Bank begins the second phase of its banking reform strategy" THE SECOND PHASE OF THE MONETARY REFORM OF THE IQD...'WILL BE REFLECTED IN THE STABILITY OF THE EXCHANGE RATE AND THE RECOVERY OF THE IRAQI DINAR INEVITABLY'! (INEVITABLY MEANS IT HAS TO HAPPEN... IN CONCLUSION: A SANCTIONED PROGRAM RATE DOES NOT REFLECT STABILITY !)
Pimpy There's a lot of interesting news but one in particular just got my attention. The conversation about floating the Iraqi dinar. If ever you wanted something to happen and for it to move in a positive way, floating the Iraqi dinar would be it since they have not re-denominated and they have not removed the zeros, if they go to a floating exchange rate and... the world goes crazy and starts buying up a lot of Iraqi dinar and it causes the exchange rate to jump up in value really quickly...as soon as you spot a rate you're comfortable with, man you better sell and...get rid of the dinar...This is really exciting if they decide to go that route. I just don't think they're going to do it.

Civil War… Really?
Civil War… Really?
Notes From the Field By James Hickman (Simon Black) May 20, 2024
On July 12, 1648, dozens of angry French politicians gathered at the hallowed Palais de Justice in Paris to draft the final ultimatum that would be sent to their nine-year-old king, Louis XIV.
The politicians were all members of France’s national parliament, and, like most modern politicians, they were almost all lawyers who lived extremely privileged lives at the expense of French taxpayers.
In France, most aristocrats historically came from a group known as the noblesse d'épée, essentially Knights of the Sword. They were warriors who had fought valiantly and had won their power for their dedicated service to France.
This new class of politicians, however, came from a different group known as the noblesse de robe. They had never fought or bled for France, and rather had spent their lives in academia and law school without any understanding of the real world.
Civil War… Really?
Notes From the Field By James Hickman (Simon Black) May 20, 2024
On July 12, 1648, dozens of angry French politicians gathered at the hallowed Palais de Justice in Paris to draft the final ultimatum that would be sent to their nine-year-old king, Louis XIV.
The politicians were all members of France’s national parliament, and, like most modern politicians, they were almost all lawyers who lived extremely privileged lives at the expense of French taxpayers.
In France, most aristocrats historically came from a group known as the noblesse d'épée, essentially Knights of the Sword. They were warriors who had fought valiantly and had won their power for their dedicated service to France.
This new class of politicians, however, came from a different group known as the noblesse de robe. They had never fought or bled for France, and rather had spent their lives in academia and law school without any understanding of the real world.
And while they claimed that their political crusade was all about ‘the people’, it was obvious that they just wanted more power for themselves.
France was just coming out of the Thirty Years’ War. The King was just a boy. The chief minister-- Jules Mazarin-- was extremely unpopular. So, these politicians saw an opportunity to take power.
They relied on their friends in the media to create divisions in French society-- Catholics versus Huguenots, peasants versus merchants-- and before long there was talk of civil war. And it didn’t exactly go as planned.
On August 27, a few weeks after submitting their ultimatum, roughly 160 politicians marched to the royal palace. They were joined by a small crowd of peasants who were dumb enough to believe that these nobles actually cared about commoners’ problems.
The royal court initially decided to placate and respect the crowd, so Louis’ mother took him outside of the city for a while. The politicians and their peasant followers immediately declared victory and turned Paris into a sort of ‘autonomous zone’.
But as months went by and nothing really improved, many of the peasants began to realize that they were just pawns in the noble’s attempt to seize power and turn France into an even worse feudalist state.
Eventually the boy king returned-- this time with his army. And suddenly the rebel nobles realized that their civil war was about to get real. Trained, professional fighters were about to march through Paris and vanquish all the sissy elites who had never fought a day in their lives.
Sure, the elites knew how to write angry letters. They knew how to use the media to stoke divisions and call their opponents all sorts of horrible names. They knew how to talk tough. And if they were alive today, they’d probably be really great at making TikTok videos.
But they were ultimately a bunch of cowards who weren’t even willing to get a bloody nose for their so-called beliefs. And France’s ‘civil war’ was over in no time.
This is one of the great lessons from history: it’s easy to pretend that you stand for something when the cost for doing so is absolutely nothing. You only find out what people truly believe when their own blood and livelihood is on the line.
In our modern era, we have equally incompetent, idiotic, wimpy politicians who are devoid of backbone. They have no clue how the real-world works, and they live a life of lavish status courtesy of the taxpayer.
They, too, have stoked division and animosity among the population. People used to be able to disagree with one another civilly. Now countless fanatics viscerally hate the other side and call for large groups of people, whether ‘billionaires’ or ‘Trump Supporters’ or ‘oil execs’, etc. to be lined up against the wall and shot.
There is no rational discourse anymore, only shouting matches, angry Twitter feuds, and ‘mostly peaceful’ protests. The takeover of so many college campuses across the Land of the Free is a testament to how far civil discourse has fallen.
It’s so bad that a number of polls suggest up to 43% of Americans think another civil war is coming within a decade. Even Ray Dalio-- billionaire founder of the world’s largest hedge fund-- recently said the same thing in an interview with the Financial Times last week. Some politicians and vocal social media personalities have also called for a ‘national breakup’.
Given that there’s even a Hollywood production out in the theaters right now literally called Civil War about a future breakdown of the US, we thought it was time to weigh in with a dose of reality.
Let’s be honest: an actual “war”, i.e. shooting, violence against violence, etc. isn’t going to happen.
Just like the French civil war in the mid-1600s, the majority of the hyper-angry progressive rebels in America today are elitist cowards. One need only take a look at the people who have taken over the universities: they’re idiot kids, not terrifying holy warriors.
Sure, it’s easy to look tough and storm an administrative building when your spineless university president tacitly (or explicitly) supports your cause.
But the second there’s any real violence, i.e. someone who fights back, they’ll all run away in an instant. They can’t even take a bloody nose.

Kuwaiti Dinar: Understanding Currency Exchange Rates and Purchasing Power
Currency re-denominations and exchange rate purchasing power are essential concepts to clearly understand in a global financial system.
They influence how money is valued and used in different economies.
Introduction to Currency Re-Denominations
Currency re-denomination involves changing the face value of a country’s currency by removing zeros from the notes. They are not rare.
Romania, for instance, re-denominated their currency in 2005 by deleting five zeros. Both the old and new notes remained in circulation together.
Romania deleted five zeros from their currency in 2005
This process does not alter the currency’s actual purchasing power. It is typically undertaken to simplify transactions and accounting.
Practical Examples and Misconceptions
Example: Iraq
Consider Iraq, where a 1,000 IQD note currently buys a single loaf of bread.
If Iraq re-denominates its currency by removing three zeros, the new note would be a 1 IQD note. Despite this change, the new 1 IQD note would still buy the same loaf of bread.
The purchasing power remains unchanged because the value of the currency relative to goods and services stays the same.
Common Misconceptions
Some people believe that removing zeros from a currency increases its purchasing power.
For example, they might think that the new 1 IQD note would buy 1,000 loaves of bread instead of one. This misconception ignores the fundamental principle that re-denomination is merely a cosmetic change.
The actual value of the currency, and what it can buy, does not increase.
The Impact on Salaries and Real-Life Scenarios
To further clarify, let’s consider a salary scenario.
If an individual in Iraq earns 100,000 IQD per month, a re-denomination removing three zeros would change their salary to 100 IQD per month.
The new 100 IQD salary would still have the same purchasing power as the old 100,000 IQD salary, allowing them to buy the same amount of goods and services.
Historical Context: Zimbabwe
Zimbabwe’s experience with re-denomination provides a similar example in reverse.
During periods of hyperinflation, Zimbabwe repeatedly added zeros to its currency, creating notes worth trillions of ZIM.
Zimbabwe 2008 100 Trillion note.
However, these new notes did not buy more than the previous billion ZIM notes, illustrating that re-denominations do not enhance purchasing power.
Understanding Currency Exchange Rates and Purchasing Power in Kuwaiti Dinar (KWD)
Determining a currency’s purchasing power relative to other currencies involves complex calculations, especially with fiat currencies.
For example, Kuwait’s dinar (KWD) has the highest exchange rate against the US dollar. However, this does not mean that the average Kuwaiti has higher international purchasing power than the average American.
Salaries in Kuwait are lower in KWD terms, reflecting the exchange rate’s impact.
Example: Moving from the USA to Kuwait
If someone earning $100,000 per year in the USA moves to Kuwait for work reasons, they cannot expect to earn 100,000 KWD per year.
This would be equivalent to earning $260,000 per year instead of the previous $100,000/year.
It would be great for the person moving to Kuwait, yet it is a completely unrealistic scenario.
Instead, their salary in Kuwait would be adjusted to match the KWD/USD exchange rate, likely around 38,000 KWD per year at current rates.
This ensures that their salary purchasing power remains reasonably consistent across currencies.
The Bottom Line
Currency re-denominations and exchange rates are vital in understanding how money functions globally.
Re-denomination changes the face value of money but not its purchasing power.
Similarly, exchange rates impact how much goods and services can be bought in different currencies.

Tishwash: Iraq is whitewashing its debt book... and fears of financial waste
Iraq closed the file of its debts owed to the International Monetary Fund and accumulated since 2003, with a total amount exceeding 8 billion dollars, through several loans that were aimed at supporting macroeconomic stability and implementing financial reforms.
According to the financial advisor to the Iraqi government, Mazhar Muhammad Salih, after 2003, the International Monetary Fund provided several loans to Iraq that were aimed at supporting economic stability and implementing financial reform processes between the years 2003 and 2021.
Saleh explained, in an interview reported by the Iraqi Media Agency (INA), that Iraq obtained several financing programs from the International Monetary Fund, including emergency loans and relatively long-term financial aid.
Saleh stated that since 2003, the value of loans and financial aid granted by the International Monetary Fund to Iraq amounted to $8 billion, and was repaid in full, with a focus when granting loans on implementing programs linked to supporting macroeconomic stability and implementing the necessary financial reforms. The International Monetary Fund had previously explained that Iraq needs to gradually correct its public financial conditions, to achieve debt stability in the medium term and rebuild financial reserves.
In its statement, the Fund welcomed the strong economic recovery, low inflation in Iraq, and the improvement in local conditions that led to the implementation of the first three-year budget, stressing the necessity of sound economic policies and structural reforms in Iraq to secure public finances and debts, given the regional conflicts that may affect oil prices.
At the end of last year, 2023, the International Monetary Fund stated that Iraq's economy relies heavily on oil revenues, and needs radical structural reforms to diversify sources of income and achieve sustainable growth.
Financial waste
In this context, the financial expert, Rashid Al-Saadi, said that financial waste in Iraqi state institutions exceeds 40 billion dollars annually, and that Iraq is capable of addressing this serious problem by drawing up a sound monetary economic policy and reducing levels of financial waste. Al-Saadi added to Al-Arabi Al-Jadeed that Iraq was one of the founding countries of the International Monetary Fund in 1944, and has a strong position in the international financial system, due to its high confidence that enables it to achieve its economic policies and provides sustainable development opportunities.
He pointed out that the International Monetary Fund's decision not to provide Iraq with development loans comes because of the Fund's policy, which requires granting debts for the purpose of achieving sustainable development projects and not in order to pay salaries and the deficit in the state budget. Al-Saadi stated that the IMF stressed greatly the importance of Iraq’s move to rationalize its cash consumption, work to achieve new resources, and invest its natural and human resources to achieve the optimal financial output away from the financial waste occurring in state institutions.
He stressed that there are more than 100,000 employees who receive salaries without any work or production, in addition to the presence of approximately 150,000 employees who receive more than one salary, in addition to the great waste in the expenses of the government and its higher institutions. He stated that the financial waste in salaries and expenses holds the state budget at more than 40 billion dollars annually, which is a dangerous percentage that leads to significant slackness and a dangerous increase in the volume of expenditures, stressing the importance of reducing surplus expenditures and working to diversify the sources of national income for the Iraqi state.
Loan burden
The economic researcher, Ahmed Sabah, said that Iraq tried to improve its relationship with the International Monetary Fund after 2003 through the Paris Club Agreement and the resulting decisions in order to extinguish the debts incurred by Iraq before its invasion in 2003, which were estimated at around 100 billion dollars, and which passed Several stages ended in 2008.
Sabah added to Al-Arabi Al-Jadeed that Iraq bore the burden of new loans at the beginning of 2014, which witnessed a rise in government expenditures on the battles to regain control of the areas that fell under the control of ISIS, and the financial problems that befell the state and a large deficit in the balance of payments. Which prompted him to request a loan from the International Monetary Fund worth $5.34 billion to meet his financial obligations.
Sabah stressed that Iraq did not sever its relationship with the International Monetary Fund, but rather the economic policy currently followed has caused the Fund to lose its confidence in it, due to the large waste of money in Iraq and the high volume of unjustified spending far from production and the multiplicity of means of national income. He stated that Iraq's economy is unstable and suffers from many fluctuations due to its total dependence on oil revenues, in addition to the state's poor economic management and its weak production performance.
Sabah stated that any decline in global oil prices will cost Iraq a lot, increase the deficit rate and raise the levels of economic risk that will result in Iraq’s bankruptcy and its reaching dangerous stages. He stressed the importance of improving Iraq's financial situation and strengthening its economic relations with international financial organizations and bodies to raise the level of confidence and confront economic crises. link

RV Excerpts from the Restored Republic via a GCR: Update as of Tues. 21 May 2024
Compiled Tues. 21 May 2024 12:01 am EST by Judy Byington
Judy Note: The Globalist Cabal was bankrupt and trying to create World War III. They wanted to profit from both sides of another war, plus was setting up The Great Reset of fiat digital currency in order to completely control the World’s financial System and subsequently, the People of the World.
In the meantime the Cabal’s once ally Iran was accepted into BRICS gold/asset-backed currencies, which meant they agreed to 100 years of peace.

Another World War would create a Global Financial Crisis that makes way for implementation of the Cabal’s Great Reset.
The Cabal’s Blackrock former Portfolio Manager Ed Dowd, explained why every last remnant of human freedom depended on widespread rejection of the Great Reset’s CBDC. “It is literally a prison planet. Once the Central Bank digital currency is linked to all your credit cards and bank accounts, then social controls can be implemented. If you’re a dissenter like me, talking about truth, they shut you down.”
Experts warn that US may freeze bank withdrawals as currency fear rises.
Judy Note: Could the Cabal’s US Inc. be involved in the Iranian helicopter crash on Sun. 19 May where the Iranian President and all his high up government officials were killed?
Iran was collaborating with Russia on creating a single BRICS currency – which would nullify the Cabal’s US Inc. planned Great Reset.
The Cabal was broke due to their fiat Federal Reserve US Dollar and they needed a World War to keep themselves financially afloat.
The death of Iranian officials triggered the Iranian Stock Market to crash, which affected a downfall of the Global Financial System.

Frank26 There's some good articles about the float... that's the number one topic right now...We're looking for those videos I told you about. We're looking for more information to be coming out. This plethora of articles, notice they're all focusing on what? The float. Because that IMO is what's next.
Fnu Lnu [Reference to the need for an NDA] There is nothing for any Dinar holder to disclose. ALL DINAR OWNERS will get the exact same amount for the exchange rate of their Dinar. There will be NO DIFFERENCE in rate between participating banks or whether you go to an off-site exchange location or not. NONE! NADA! There is NO information to protect for the ordinary Dinar owner/investor. People who were invited to participate in the Private Placements were typically those who have over 10,000,000 Dinar and the reason for the NDA is because they will receive a substantially higher rate for their exchange because they are selling to private foreign entities, in a private sale, outside the general public participant who typically owns only one 25,000 Dinar Note.
