Iggy: A large group of ISIS fighters in Iraq are moving down a road, when they hear the voice of an American from behind a sand dune, “Hey you scumbags! One Marine is better than ten wimpy ISIS fighters!”
The ISIS commander quickly orders 10 of his best men over to the sand dune, where a gun battle breaks out and continues for a few minutes. After a minute of silence, the voice calls out again, “One Marine is better than one hundred of you ISIS scumbags!”
Furious, the ISIS commander sends his next best 100 troops over the dune and a huge gun fight breaks out. After 10 minutes of battle, there is again silence, until the voice calls out again, “One Marine is better than a thousand ISIS fighters.”
The enraged ISIS commander musters 1,000 fighters and sends them to the other side of the dune. Rifle fire, machine guns, grenades, rockets and cannon fire ring out as a terrible fight is fought … then silence.

Mot: Neighbors feared him. Old Clifford liked that fact .................
Clifford and Daisy May were married for many years. Whenever there was a confrontation, yelling could be heard deep into the night. Clifford would shout, "When I die, I'll dig my way up and out of the grave and come back and haunt you for the rest of your life ol' woman!!"
Neighbors feared him. Old Clifford liked the fact that he was feared.
He died at the ripe old age of 98.
After the burial, Daisy May's neighbors, concerned for her safety, asked, "Aren't you afraid that he may indeed be able to dig his way out of the grave and haunt you for the rest of your life?"
She replied, "LET HIM DIG. I HAD HIM BURIED UPSIDE DOWN...AND I KNOW HE WON'T ASK FOR DIRECTIONS."

Mot: Please, can you use this hanger to unlock my car?
She hurried to the pharmacy to get medication, got back to her car and found that she had locked her keys inside. The woman found an old rusty coat hanger left on the ground. She looked at it and said, "I don't know how to use this." She bowed her head and asked God to send her some Help.
Within 5 minutes a beat up old motorcycle pulled up,
driven by a bearded man who was wearing an old biker skull rag. He got off of his cycle and asked, if she needs help?
She said: "Yes, my daughter is sick. I've locked my keys in the car. I must get home.
Please, can you use this hanger to unlock my car?
He said, Sure. "He walked over to the car, and in less than a minute the car was open.
She hugged the man and through tears said, "Thank You God, for sending me such a very nice man."
The Biker heard her little prayer and replied, "Lady, I am not a nice man. I just got out of prison yesterday; I was in prison for car theft."
The woman hugged the man again, sobbing, "Oh, thank you, God! You even sent me a Professional!"

My Bags Are Packed by Dr. Dinar
So here we are, in week 341 of this global stay-at-home shutdown thing, and if you're anything like me, you're pretty much losing your mind.
Or what's left of your mind, anyway.
I know I sure am.
All of this mandatory do-nothingness is really taking a toll on... on... on my do somethingness.
That's not to say I'd be doing anything different this weekend than I'm already doing.
But it sure would be nice to do nothing because I wanted to.
Not because someone somewhere says I have to
Thank You Dr. Dinar
My Bags Are Packed by Dr. Dinar
So here we are, in week 341 of this global stay-at-home shutdown thing, and if you're anything like me, you're pretty much losing your mind.
Or what's left of your mind, anyway.
I know I sure am.
All of this mandatory do-nothingness is really taking a toll on... on... on my do somethingness.
That's not to say I'd be doing anything different this weekend than I'm already doing.
But it sure would be nice to do nothing because I wanted to.
Not because someone somewhere says I have to.
Well, they didn't actually say I shouldn't do anything but their suggestions of what to do aren't the most exciting.
Nor are they exactly a one-size-fits-all menu of fun filled items.
Nope. Basically it's a laundry list of items from someones imaginary Honey-Do list.
A bunch of things that would be nice to get done when time permits.
Fortunately, at least up until now anyway, I didn't have the time.
Unfortunately, now that I have the time, I no longer have the built-in excuse of not having enough time.
Funny how that works, isn't it.
Grabbing a nearby pad of paper, I began to jot down a few items.
You know, a few of the usuals.
Things like mow the lawn, rake the leaves, repaint Sheryl's She-Shed.
Basic stuff like that.
Okay, list in hand, I was off and runnin'.
Well, at least until I opened the front door, anyway.
YIKES! Major meltdown!
As Walter Matthau would say, "We're havin' a heatwave!"
Looks like they win again.
Guess it's gonna be an inside job kinda day.
Once again, pen and paper in hand, let the scribblin' begin.
Okay... let the scribblin' begin.
One more time, start scribblin'.
And... nothin'.
The more I attempted to focus on creating a list, the less things I could think of to fill the list.
Sure, there were the typicals like doing the dishes, laundering some laundry, sweeping various sweepable areas.
Once again, the usual.
Not only did everything on the list spell BORING, nearly everything inside required some part of it being done outside.
Even if only to grab a few of the necessary implements required to complete these tedious tasks, it still required a trip outdoors.
And since I had already determined outside was off limits, especially with a mandatory mask involved, it was once again time to rethink the list.
Perhaps what I needed was more of a directionally strategic approach.
As in a left to right, North to South, front to back type of thing.
But exactly how would that work, knowing there were areas that I wanted to avoid.
Didn't take me long to realize that wouldn't work.
The hodge podge randomizer method wasn't going to get it done either.
A quick glance at the clock and I realized I was already an hour into the indecision process.
Meaning if I didn't make a decision very soon, there wouldn't be a decision made.
Of any sort.
As I continued to contemplate this dilemma, I noticed that my feet were becoming increasingly uncomfortable.
Ah ha! Having previously planned to work outdoors, I'd already put on my outside shoes.
And they weren't gonna cut it on an inside job.
No way. I needed my trusty flip flops if I was gonna tackle anything indoors.
So it was off to the hall closet I went, knowing my summer slippers were waiting for me, looking forward to their time to shine.
Opening the door, first thing I noticed was just how dark it was in there.
Feeling around on the wall just inside the door sill, I quickly found the switch.
Upon flipping the switch, the light was on.
And then, even quicker than it was on, it was off.
What the hay!
Sheesh, that didn't last long.
Have you ever noticed how a light bulb never goes out during usage.
It's only a split second after it's clicked on that it goes out.
It's no wonder so many projects get sidetracked and never reach completion.
Quickly reassessing the situation, knowing that light would be mandatory, how best to go about this.
Quickly realizing those oh so high ceilings I love so much in the living room also extend to the hall closet means a bulb change will require lots of work.
Which will also require lots of time.
Time I just don't have.
Not if I want to accomplish anything at all today.
Not to mention it will require a trip out to the garage to get the ladder.
Which will require once again putting on the very same shoes I just removed.
Talk about one step forward, three steps back.
Nobody has time for that.
Especially not me.
Look how much time it's taken me to get to this point.
And I still haven't gotten anything done.
Okay, so replacing the light bulb is out.
Off to the kitchen I go in search of my trusty flashlight.
I so enjoy being prepared in an emergency and fortunately I know exactly which drawer it's in.
Sliding the drawer open, there she is, in all her glory.
Woo Hoo, back in action without a hitch, off to the hall closet I go.
Click... click... click! And... nothing.
Are you kidding me!?!
Yes, I found the flashlight.
No, I hadn't replaced the batteries in like... well, I couldn't remember in how long.
Okay, so the flashlight was out. Literally.
Thinking quickly on my bare feet, what's my next best option.
Shoes back on, a skin fried trip back outside to a garage that was pretty much guaranteed to be even hotter than it was outside in the direct sun.
Nope. There had to be a better way.
Once again, thinking fast on my feet, what about putting my phone in flashlight mode.
Not the best nor the brightest but it should work well enough to scrounge around for my flip flops.
Settings... scroll... scroll... scroll... click... click... click..., let there be light!
Okay then, I'm back in action.
Off to the closet I go. Again.
Fortunately for me, I know they're in here. Somewhere.
At least I think they are, anyway.
Let's put it this way. They should be.
So far though, no luck.
Peeling back the various jackets, coats and shirts hanging there, hoping to catch a glimpse of these elusive summer slippers that I'm oh so sure are hiding there and WHAM!
Oooouuuccchhhh... what the heck was that!
Nearly dropping my phone in excruciating pain, I quickly reach for my pinky toe, hoping it's still attached to my foot.
One... two... three... four... and five.
Woo Hoo, found it!
Thankfully it was still attached, but based on the pain, I wasn't sure how long it would be before my toe turned black & blue and fell off.
At this point finding my flip flops would have to wait.
I needed to know the source of my pain and do whatever necessary to prevent such a situation in the future.
Knowing I'm not a Bowler, although it certainly felt like it was, it wasn't likely to be a 16 pound bowling ball in a bag.
Eliminating that from the list, what on Earth could it be.
What in the world could be sitting in that closet that weighed so much, held such sharp-edged objects, yet escaped my memory.
Reaching down to the exact location of the toe jamming incident, I felt something that felt like canvas.
You know, that rough kind of heavy duty material feeling.
Grabbing hold of it, attempting to pick it up and no go.
Much too heavy.
And so I proceeded to slide it out into the light.
What in the world is this... no way!
As soon as it hit the light I knew exactly what it was.
It was my "To Go" bag!
Now, you might be asking yourself what exactly is a To Go bag.
Well, if you were around back in the day, then you'll be all too familiar with this item.
If not, please allow me to shed some light on the subject.
Those that have only been around this RV/GCR ordeal for the past few years might not be too familiar with 'em.
Back in the 2010 era, one of the big rumors floating around Dinarland at the time was you better have your To Go bag at the ready, waiting for split second notice to run to the Bank and Cash Out.
By the way, if you still hear anybody saying Cash Out or Cash In, you'll know they're Old School and have more than likely been in the game for quite some time.
Nowadays we know to say Exchange (or redeem as applies to the Zim) but back then, the nomenclature battle raged between "Cash In" or "Cash Out".
Then again, back then it was all about the RV.
The GCR hadn't really gained much traction on the rumor mill and was still a ways off in the distance.
Just another of the many changes that have taken place along the way.
Anyway, back to the bag.
It was highly suggested that we have a To Go bag at the ready, sitting by the front door.
Just as you would if you had an expectant Mother living in the house.
You'd want all of your essentials at the ready, knowing it's best to be as prepared as possible for whatever may come.
Whenever it may come.
Same goes for the RV/GCR To Go bag.
Everything at the ready, ready to grab 'n go, getting you to the Bank asap.
Yep, this was also back in the day where we thought we'd be going to a regular bank to conduct our transactions.
Once again, look how much we've learned along the way.
What's inside this bag?
That's up to each individual and over the years the rumor mill has constantly debated over how much info do we really need.
Forgive me as it's been such a long time and my memory isn't quite what it once was but I'll do my best to break it down.
In the old days it was something like 12 forms of identification... six of which required a photo.
The other six could be from various sources.
Be they utility bills, property taxes, AARP cards, Mug Shots, Christmas Cards from family members, anything that would show a connection between you and your address.
They wanted confirmation that you were who you said you were, lived where you said you did, couldn't claim anyone else as a dependent, and so on.
They also highly suggested that you bring all of your receipts for all of your purchases.
For some, no big deal.
For others, this could've been a very big deal as we weren't originally instructed that we'd need anything of the sort.
After all, this would be a simple Cash Out (or in, I forget now which was which).
And that being the case, many folks never took the time to keep track of their receipts.
No big deal, it was only going to be a couple weeks before we'd be at the Banks transacting our transactions.
And it that amount of time we wouldn't have any trouble remembering where we purchased our IQD.
The other thing we'd need, which I'm sure goes without saying, would be our currency.
Which, for most of us, would simply be a small envelope.
Sure, we'd heard all the random rumors of the Whales who'd made mega purchases but for all we knew, that was just another part of the mystery.
The mystery that was and continues to be Dinarland.
The only other ingredient in our To Go bags was our outfits.
What we would wear on the big day.
It was suggested that we dress in a Business Casual manner, leaving the jeans, t-shirts and overalls at home.
Of course, that was pretty much left up to our own discretion.
Some folks wouldn't feel comfortable being over dressed, others wouldn't hear of not looking the part.
I myself knew exactly what I'd be wearing.
It was definitely a no-brainer.
I'd already had the situation all planned out in my mind, having perfected my elevator speech down to the last nonchalant yawn.
I practiced enough in front of my bathroom mirror, knowing full well I was beyond prepared for whatever they threw at me.
Was I concerned that my outfit might be construed as being a bit too fashion forward?
No, not in the least.
I wanted them to know that for me, it was all about my making the most of the situation.
Which meant getting the best rates, a boatload of perks, and swaggering my way outta there, held held high in conquest.
And nothing says Cash Out King more than a suit covered in cash.
Am I right?
They'll see me comin'... and they'll definitely remember me goin'.
That's a fact.
Sitting there at the kitchen table, rummaging through my To Go bag, it was painfully obvious that I was in dire need of not only updating my list of Exchange Essentials but my Cash Out suit was in need of some serious dry cleaning.
After lying dormant in that bag for all these years, my suit was anything but ready to go.
Then it dawned on me, while on one hand I was happy to have rediscovered my bag of tricks, with nearly every business currently being closed down, it would be difficult, if not impossible, to get my suit dry cleaned any time soon.
Jumping on the computer I began to search for ways to achieve Dry Cleaner results during a Stay-At-Home restriction.
So far, no luck, but the search continues.
I never give up.
Did I ever find my flip flops?
As of now, no I didn't.
However, at this time I'm on to more pressing things.
I want to be ready when we finally get the GO signal.
When will that be?
Who knows. Not me, that's for sure.
All I know is both me as well as my To Go bag will be ready, willing, and waiting by the front door, ready to take off at a moments notice.
Hang in there folks and do your best to get your To Go bags in order.
It's not a matter of "if" you're going to need it, it's simply a matter of "when".
Kindly,
Dr. Dinar

Finally.
And by finally, I mean... well, FINALLY!
Finally, after all these years, I've finally seen something with my own eyes that I consider to be a huge piece of the GCR puzzle actually become a part of the public awareness.
Something they can't simply make disappear as they do with everything else that doesn't serve their best interests.
I'm referring, of course, to last Monday's shocking collapse of the oil futures market.
That had to be a tough one for anybody to miss.

Something they can't simply make disappear as they do with everything else that doesn't serve their best interests.
I'm referring, of course, to last Monday's shocking collapse of the oil futures market.
That had to be a tough one for anybody to miss.
As far as importance in the way it affects their everyday lives, that's pretty much anybody's guess.
Sure, for many people this more than likely just flew right over their heads, never even thinking twice about it.
Except for those few that equated it to lower prices at the pump.
Low and behold, in most states, that did seem to happen just a few short days later.
Yes, they can and do manipulate fuel pricing so I'm more of a believer in their making it appear as if it had an instant affect on fuel prices but to be honest, these were oil futures.
So this once in a lifetime drop in oil prices didn't actually have an immediate impact.
But at least it appeared that way.
And at this point, that's good enough for me.
And hopefully it did for anybody else looking forward to seeing the end of this whole RV/GCR soap opera.
I'm just so overwhelmingly excited to finally see something tangible.
Something we can sink our few remaining teeth into.
Something some of us have been waiting and hoping for over the past decade.
That being something that feels real.
At least as real as real can feel in this whole RV/GCR thing anyway.
Up to this point everything that's supposedly happening has always been according to secret sources behind the curtain and we're continually being tested on our ability to believe in the unbelievable.
And taken to task if we refuse to follow along with all those that believe in the unseen.
But this... this is different.
Not only is it happening in our local public's eye, it's affecting the global markets as well.
And that has to be a huge signal of some form of progress.
A sign that things are changing in our global economy and that just has to be working in our favor.
Like it or not, it's becoming increasingly clearer that they won't step in and fix this economic situation until the very last minute.
Until the last straw is truly at its breaking point.
Is that part of the plan? Who knows.
At this point I'm still unconvinced that they even have a plan.
Unless you consider expecting the unexpected, thereby making the unexpected the expected, as being their plan.
If so, then they very well could be sticking to their plan.
Otherwise, as far as any plan goes, I believe they're working more in a reactionary mode as opposed to an actionary mode.
Especially when you add in all of this other global chaos that we're being submersed in as of late.
Any way you choose to look at it, things are getting crazy (crazier?) and I truly believe things will eventually reach a point to where they can no longer simply print their way out of a corner and will have to make the switch.
And that will signal our time to shine.
Our time to execute our plans.
The plans we've been working on for far too long.
So please folks, hang in there.
Don't allow all the chaos we're currently surrounded by to in any way dissuade you from reaching the finish line.
We just have to be getting close.
Anyone can see that.
If you've made it this far, you'll make it to the end.
Then we can all celebrate in whatever way we deem fit.
Be it a Tuesday or any other day ending in "Y".
Kindly,

Samson: International Monetary: Approval of the postponement of the payment of debt installments of 25 countries
09:45 - 16/04/2020
The International Monetary Fund Board agreed to suspend debt service payments to 25 member states, including two Arab countries, to help these countries to face the repercussions of the emergence of the emerging Corona virus. The fund said that it was agreed to suspend the debt service for these countries for a period of 6 months as an initial stage, provided that it takes a similar decision regarding at least 4 other countries.
The list of countries benefiting from this decision included two Arab countries, Yemen and Comoros, along with Afghanistan, Benin, Burkina Faso, Haiti, Tajikistan, Chad, Congo, Democratic Republic of the Congo, The Gambia, Guinea, Guinea Pisa, Liberia, Madagascar, Malawi, Mali, Mozambique, Niger, Nepal, Rwanda, Sotome, Principe, Sierra Leone and Togo. Earlier, the fund said that deferring payments would cost 213 million dollars, which would be paid from a special account set up by the fund.
The fund’s management announced a fundraising campaign that would allow loan payments to the poorest countries to be deferred for two years. According to the fund, the suspension of debt payments will allow the poorest countries to channel these resources to vital emergency supplies. On Wednesday, G20 finance ministers agreed on a coordinated approach to suspending debt service payments due to poor countries from May 1 to the end of this year. LINK

The Difference Between Men and Women
.Humor while we wait!
The Difference Between Man and Woman!
Let's say a guy named Fred is attracted to a woman named Martha. He asks her out to a movie; she accepts; they have a pretty good time. A few nights later he asks her out to dinner, and again they enjoy themselves. They continue to see each other regularly, and after a while neither one of them is seeing anybody else.
And then, one evening when they're driving home, a thought occurs to Martha, and, without really thinking, she says it aloud: "Do you realize that, as of tonight, we've been seeing each other for exactly six months?"
And then, there is silence in the car.

The Difference Between Man and Woman!
Let's say a guy named Fred is attracted to a woman named Martha. He asks her out to a movie; she accepts; they have a pretty good time. A few nights later he asks her out to dinner, and again they enjoy themselves. They continue to see each other regularly, and after a while neither one of them is seeing anybody else.
And then, one evening when they're driving home, a thought occurs to Martha, and, without really thinking, she says it aloud: "Do you realize that, as of tonight, we've been seeing each other for exactly six months?"
And then, there is silence in the car.
To Martha, it seems like a very loud silence. She thinks to herself: I wonder if it bothers him that I said that. Maybe he's been feeling confined by our relationship; maybe he thinks I'm trying to push him into some kind of obligation that he doesn't want, or isn't sure of.
And Fred is thinking: Gosh. Six months.
And Martha is thinking: But, hey, I'm not so sure I want this kind of relationship either. Sometimes I wish I had a little more space, so I'd have time to think about whether I really want us to keep going the way we are, moving steadily towards, I mean, where are we going? Are we just going to keep seeing each other at this level of intimacy? Are we heading toward marriage? Toward children? Toward a lifetime together? Am I ready for that level of commitment? Do I really even know this person?
And Fred is thinking: ...so that means it was...let's see...February when we started going out, which was right after I had the car at the dealer's, which means...lemme check the odometer...Whoa! I am way overdue for an oil change here.
And Martha is thinking: He's upset. I can see it on his face. Maybe I'm reading this completely wrong. Maybe he wants more from our relationship, more intimacy, more commitment; maybe he has sensed - even before I sensed it - that I was feeling some reservations. Yes, I bet that's it. That's why he's so reluctant to say anything about his own feelings. He's afraid of being rejected.
And Fred is thinking: And I'm gonna have them look at the transmission again. I don't care what those morons say, it's still not shifting right. And they better not try to blame it on the cold weather this time. What cold weather? It's 87 degrees out, and this thing is shifting like a garbage truck, and I paid those incompetent thieves $600.
And Martha is thinking: He's angry. And I don't blame him. I'd be angry, too. I feel so guilty, putting him through this, but I can't help the way I feel. I'm just not sure.
And Fred is thinking: They'll probably say it's only a 90-day warranty...scumballs.
And Martha is thinking: Maybe I'm just too idealistic, waiting for a knight to come riding up on his white horse, when I'm sitting right next to a perfectly good person, a person I enjoy being with, a person I truly do care about, a person who seems to truly care about me. A person who is in pain because of my self-centered, schoolgirl romantic fantasy.
And Fred is thinking: Warranty? They want a warranty? I'll give them a warranty. I'll take their warranty and stick it right up their...
"Fred," Martha says aloud.
"What?" says Fred, startled.
"Please don't torture yourself like this," she says, her eyes beginning to brim with tears. "Maybe I should never have...oh dear, I feel so..."(She breaks down, sobbing.)
"What?" says Fred.
"I'm such a fool," Martha sobs. "I mean, I know there's no knight. I really know that. It's silly. There's no knight, and there's no horse."
"There's no horse?" says Fred.
"You think I'm a fool, don't you?" Martha says.
"No!" says Fred, glad to finally know the correct answer.
"It's just that...it's that I...I need some time," Martha says.
(There is a 15-second pause while Fred, thinking as fast as he can, tries to come up with a safe response. Finally he comes up with one that he thinks might work.)
"Yes," he says. (Martha, deeply moved, touches his hand.)
"Oh, Fred, do you really feel that way?" she says.
"What way?" says Fred.
"That way about time," says Martha.
"Oh," says Fred. "Yes." (Martha turns to face him and gazes deeply into his eyes, causing him to become very nervous about what she might say next, especially if it involves a horse. At last she speaks.)
"Thank you, Fred," she says.
"Thank you," says Fred.
Then he takes her home, and she lies on her bed, a conflicted, tortured soul, and weeps until dawn, whereas when Fred gets back to his place, he opens a bag of Doritos, turns on the TV, and immediately becomes deeply involved in a rerun of a college basketball game between two South Dakota junior colleges that he has never heard of.
A tiny voice in the far recesses of his mind tells him that something major was going on back there in the car, but he is pretty sure there is no way he would ever understand what, and so he figures it's better if he doesn't think about it.
The next day Martha will call her closest friend, or perhaps two of them, and they will talk about this situation for six straight hours. In painstaking detail, they will analyze everything she said and everything he said, going over it time and time again, exploring every word, expression, and gesture for nuances of meaning, considering every possible ramification.
They will continue to discuss this subject, off and on, for weeks, maybe months, never reaching any definite conclusions, but never getting bored with it either.
Meanwhile, Fred, while playing racquetball one day with a mutual friend of his and Martha's, will pause just before serving, frown, and say: "Norm, did Martha ever own a horse?"
And that's the difference between men and women.

WWG1WGA!!!'
Q
For those of you new to Q drops, WWG1WGA stands for Where We Go One We Go All. It was inscribed on a bell on JFK Senior's yacht. JFK Senior attempted to introduce the gold standard into America and was assassinated. Donald Trump took up his mantle. He WILL succeed. Donald Trump is close friends with JFK Junior. Notice that I said IS - I believe JFK Junior is alive and playing an active role, alongside President Trump, to liberate humanity.
Q drop number 3908 from 28th March features a photo - no words - of a USA flag with NO gold fringing. The removal of gold fringing from USA flags has always been seen by Anons as a sign of the restoration of the Republic.
Scroll down I ET 17's Twitter feed until you find a picture of President Trump giving a speech in front of the naval 'hospital' ship Comfort. Note the flags...
https://twitter.com/Inevitable_ET
I ET 17 has retweeted Billy Bear...
'NO gold fringes on flags...this is HUGE!!!'
I ET 17 has added...
'Check it. Top kek. Q+'
In the picture, notice the large white Q super-imposed over POTUS and the large white + super-imposed over the red cross on the ship. This is very cool imagery - and no accident. President Trump is known as Q+ to Anons. Oh, and 'kek' is an Anon word. There is a whole special vocabulary in Q world!
On another topic...
There is great debate among Light Warriors about the Ten Days of Darkness. Interestingly, it seems that some You Tube Q commentators aren't supporting the concept. Maybe because their channels are monetized and they would lose income if the internet went down?? Whereas Tweeters such as I ET 17 and Joe M(StormIsUponUs) are being open-minded.
It is one reason why I have gravitated away from videos and now use Twitter for my intel. There is financial motivation for You Tubers. Light Warriors on Twitter are not there to make money. They are there to INFORM. They are true journalists - old school, the way I was trained. They are supplying daily information and allowing us to form our own opinions.
I will end with a Tweet from Joe M(StormIsUponUs). I resonate with these words...
https://twitter.com/StormIsUponUs
'We know that major drama is coming in the hot phase of a corrupt purge that will shock the world and disrupt the collective consciousness of humanity forever. If not during a once-in-a-lifetime event when the planet is at home in lock down, then WHEN?!'
Exactly.
Where We Go One We Go All.

Frank26 ...nobody knows the date or the rate...at this pace. If I didn't know any better. It sure feels like the same thing that happened in Kuwait. There was every reason for it not to happen. There was every delay and every reason for it not to go up in value and then all of a sudden - BOOM! We woke up and their money went up in value. This is very interesting.
Delta ...I might be wrong but my opinion is that come April the Central Bank of Iraq is gonna make the move...remember if they are going to increase the value...they want to be sure they paid salaries before they do anything. They are moving very fast to pay those salaries...I've never seen the CBI rushing the citizens...to [give] a due date, 'You have by Tuesday to go get your money.' It never happened before...I do believe after they pay all the salaries the Central Bank of Iraq has to move forward and raise the value...they have only one month. Next month and then it's a disaster for Iraq. They have to come up ASAP...
Pimpy ...these people are in such an economical financial crunch they need to increase the rate. They need the increase very soon before they can't recoup. They need to do this so they can start buying the things they need to get the country kick-started and rebuilding...99% of us feel like for some reason this coronavirus is just a distraction...

Mot: Jay Leno went into the audience to find the most embarrassing first date that a woman ever had................
Jay Leno went into the audience to find the most embarrassing first date that a woman ever had. The winner described her worst first date experience. There was absolutely no question as to why her tale took the prize!
She said it was midwinter, snowing and quite cold... and the guy had taken her skiing in the mountains outside Salt Lake City, Utah. It was a day trip (no overnight).
They were strangers, after all, and had never met before. The outing was fun but relatively uneventful until they were headed home late that afternoon. They were driving back down the mountain when she gradually began to realize that she should not have had that extra latte !!
They were about an hour away from anywhere with a restroom and in the middle of nowhere! Her companion suggested she try to hold it, which she did for a while.
Unfortunately, because of the heavy snow and slow going, there came a point where she told him that he had better stop and let her go beside the road, or it would be the front seat of his car.
They stopped and she quickly crawled out beside the car, yanked her pants down and started. In the deep snow she didn't have good footing, so she let her butt rest against the rear fender to steady herself.
Her companion stood on the side of the car watching for traffic and indeed was a real gentleman and refrained from peeking. All she could think about was the relief she felt despite the rather embarrassing nature of the situation.
Upon finishing, however, she soon became aware of another sensation. As she bent to pull up her pants, the young lady discovered her buttocks were firmly glued against the car's fender.
Thoughts of tongues frozen to poles immediately came to mind as she attempted to disengage her flesh from the icy metal. It was quickly apparent that she had a brand new problem, due to the extreme cold.
Horrified by her plight and yet aware of the humor of the moment, she answered her date's concerns about' what is taking so long' with a reply that indeed, she was 'freezing her butt off' and in need of some assistance!
He came around the car as she tried to cover herself with her sweater and then, as she looked imploringly into his eyes, he burst out laughing. She too got the giggles and when they finally managed to compose themselves, they assessed her dilemma. Obviously, as hysterical as the situation was, they also were faced with a real problem.
Both agreed it would take something hot to free her chilly cheeks from the grip of the icy metal! Thinking about what had gotten her into the predicament in the first place, both quickly realized that there was only one way to get her free. So, as she looked the other way, her first-time date proceeded to unzip his pants and pee her butt off the fender.
As the audience screamed in laughter, she took the Tonight Show prize hands down. Or perhaps that should be 'pants down'. And you thought your first date was embarrassing.
Jay Leno's comment..... 'This gives a whole new meaning to being pissed off.'
Oh, and how did the first date turn out? He became her husband and was sitting next to her on the Leno show.

.Keep Believin' In The Unbelievable!
by Dr. Dinar
Sheesh. They can put a man on the Moon. Or at least we think they can anyway.
Could've been Hollywood magicification for all we know.
Without a doubt the lighting situation was highly suspect.
But let's go ahead and give 'em the benefit of the doubt, just for the sake of discussion.
What we do know is they can put shampoo and conditioner in the same bottle.
Well, according to the label anyway.
Keep Believin' In The Unbelievable!
by Dr. Dinar
Sheesh. They can put a man on the Moon. Or at least we think they can anyway.
Could've been Hollywood magicification for all we know.
Without a doubt the lighting situation was highly suspect.
But let's go ahead and give 'em the benefit of the doubt, just for the sake of discussion.
What we do know is they can put shampoo and conditioner in the same bottle.
Well, according to the label anyway.
Even if we're unable to see inside the bottle itself, that much we can see.
However, based on the results, it certainly appears we're being fed some serious misdisinfo.
Would the shampoo company intentionally deceive us?
Naw... they wouldn't do that.
Or would they.
The all-in-one results certainly aren't anything even close to those derived from implementing them in a two-step process. Shampoo first, then conditioner.
Matter of fact it almost feels (and looks) as if there's been no conditioner applied whatsoever.
Once again, we're left with two options. Believe or don't believe.
Moving on, let's go with something a bit more visible. Like a sandwich.
We know they can put peanut butter and jelly in the same jar.
How do we know that? Because we can see it.
Yes, thanks to something as simple as a clear glass jar, we're able to see the two key ingredients in all their swirlicious glory.
We know what Peanut Butter looks like. We know what Jelly looks like.
Especially when both are applied to two separate slices of bread.
Both easily recognizable, totally different colors as well as tastes.
So when you see them both swirlified in the same clear glass jar, it's pretty much a no-brainer.
No need to be a believer in the unseen, the evidence is unmistakably clear.
So it only stands to reason that if they can do all of those things, then why on Earth can't they get this GCR done.
Yeah, yeah, I get it. This is a biggie.
A never previously been attempted, once in anybody's lifetime, one for the history books, global sized event.
Yet, isn't that exactly why they assigned this task to only the most intelligent folks on the planet.
If it were up to me and my goal was to make this GCR thing happen, I know I would do everything possible to ensure I had assembled the best Team available. Wouldn't you?
Isn't that sort of Rule No.1, hire those more intelligent than yourself.
It only makes sense.
Keeping all that in mind, we also have endless amounts of trendsetting technology at our fingertips.
From talking clones to flying drones, without a doubt we're wise beyond on years.
And still, with all that at their disposal, they still can't seem to get this done.
We're constantly being told that they've been working on getting this thing done for the past fartoomany years.
However, with no visible proof, one can't help but begin to wonder if this thing truly is getting done.
As in making forward progress of any sort.
Not to point fingers but if any of us were to be appointed to a similar position, we'd have been fired long ago.
And rightfully so.
After all, you're hired for one reason. To do a job.
One job. Complete a desired task.
Basically, to git 'r done.
And I don't know about you but from where I stand, they ain't got it done.
Not yet anyway.
Close? Maybe. But done?? Not so much.
I don't care how many hundreds of times I hear "It's done... we're just waiting for the release."
Until they release it, it ain't done.
Until it's liquid and spendable, it ain't done.
Until I can buy groceries and pay the electric bill to keep those groceries cold in the fridge, it ain't done.
Until I can buy the groceries for the person behind me in the grocery store line, it ain't done.
So please, if you're one of those continually saying "It's done, but... .", please check to see how important that add-on but is.
I believe you'll come to find that one little but makes all the difference.
Which brings me back to my original thought.
That being if any of us were in charge of getting it done, regardless of what "it" is, yet we continually fell short in accomplishing our goal, we'd surely be excused from our place of employment.
And our replacement would be hired (or recharged, depending on if we were to be replaced by a Robot or not) post haste.
Hmmmmm... replacement. That's it!
What if we seek out replacements for whomever the heck it is that's responsible for completing this task.
Whomever's job it is to make this RV / GCR thing happen. To git 'r done.
The one's that don't appear to be getting it done. Yeah, them folks.
Would it be a group such as the A-Team, with all of their battle-hardened skills?
Or a bunch such as Charlie's Angels, with their super-stealthish abilities among their many attributes.
Surely they could get the job done.
And no, I didn't refer to any of them as Shirley.
Heck, at this point I wouldn't care if it was The Brady Bunch.
As long as we're assured they're on our side and want the best for humanity, I'm okay with it.
But wait. Let's think about this for a second.
What if I'm wr... wro... mistaken in my thought process.
What if the people assigned to completing this task actually do want it done.
What if they are in fact doing their very best to get it released.
What if they are indeed on the good side, wanting the best for humanity.
After a decade of feeling as if it's entirely possible we've been duped, I think it's only natural to be more than a bit skeptical.
To begin to question everything and everyone involved in this situation.
Especially when we're all too aware of the many folks that don't want this to happen.
Yet, at some point you have to have faith.
In both the people in charge as well as the ongoing process itself and the supposed progress being made towards completing the process.
Think about it. Doesn't matter how long you've been involved in this exchange endeavor, if you're anything like me, then you've yet to see any factual signs of progress.
After hearing words such as Article 140, the HCL Law, new Prime Minister seated, Erbil Arbil Gerbil ramblin' by our monitors for over a decade now, one becomes quite numb to all of that delirium.
Meaning all of the supposed results are just as intangible as the forward progression of the process itself.
As Bruce Springsteen often says, we're runnin' on empty, runnin' blind, unable to see any progress nor the process itself.
He must be a currency holder.
Come to think of it, looking back, hasn't it pretty much been that way since the very start.
Runnin' on faith, believing in the unbelievable.
For the most part none of us had ever been to Iraq.
Yet we were so anxious to connect with someone that had (or had a connection to someone that had) that we were easily swept up by people that continually made claims of having connections in places we could never have imagined.
Were we idiots for believing them? Hmmm... perhaps. Let's hope not.
Believers in the unbelievable? Without a doubt.
And who could blame us.
If you're going to get involved in anything like the RV/GCR and you refuse to believe in the unseen, I wish you all the luck in the world.
You're gonna need it.
This whole thing runs on the unverified and unseen.
Believing in the unbelievable is key to surviving this journey.
So at this point in the process we're pretty much stuck believing that the people in charge of this RV/GCR thing, whomever they may be, have only the best of intentions.
Believing that they're working with much more intelligence and knowledge than we tend to give them credit for.
Or at the very least hoping they are well aware of Google and aren't afraid to use it.
Who knows, they might be just like us.
Fed up with the seemingly endless broke Holiday Seasons and want this done and completed just as much as we do.
Perhaps even more.
They've still got a few weeks to get this done.
Let's hope this is a season of miracles after all.
And let's hope our Christmas Bonus isn't just enrollment in another year of the RV/GCR "Rumor Of The Month" Club.
The global economy ain't got time for that.
And neither do we.
Hang in there folks and keep on believin' in the unbelievable.
Kindly,

Iggy: I wish you a day of ordinary miracles
I am now, probably for the first time in my life, the person I have always wanted to be. Oh, not my body! I sometime despair over my body – the wrinkles, the baggy eyes, and the sagging butt. And often I am taken aback by that old person that lives in my mirror, but I don’t agonize over those things for long.
I would never trade my amazing friends, my wonderful life, my loving family for less gray hair or a flatter belly. As I’ve aged, I’ve become more kind to myself, and less critical of myself. I’ve become my own friend. I don’t chide myself for eating that extra cookie, or for not making my bed, or for buying that silly cement gecko that I didn’t need, but looks so avant-garde on my patio.
I am entitled to overeat, to be messy, to be extravagant. I have seen too many dear friends leave this world too soon; before they understood the great freedom that comes with aging.

Whose business is it if I choose to read or play on the computer until 4 am, and sleep until noon? I will dance with myself to those wonderful tunes of the 60’s, and if I, at the same time, wish to weep over a lost love.. I will I will walk the beach in a swim suit that is stretched over a bulging body, and will dive into the waves with abandon if I choose to, despite the pitying glances from the bikini set. They, too, will get old!
I know I am sometimes forgetful. But there again, some of life is just as well forgotten, and I eventually remember the important things.
Sure, over the years my heart has been broken. How can your heart not break when you lose a loved one, or when a child suffers, or even when a beloved pet gets hit by a car? But broken hearts are what give us strength and understanding and compassion. A heart never broken is pristine and sterile and will never know the joy of being imperfect. Old Age is a Gift
I am so blessed to have lived long enough to have my hair turn gray, and to have my youthful laughs be forever etched into deep grooves on my face. So many have never laughed, and so many have died before their hair could turn silver. I can say ‘no’, and mean it. I can say ‘yes’, and mean it
As you get older, it is easier to be positive. You care less about what other people think. I don’t question myself anymore. I’ve even earned the right to be wrong
So, to answer your question, I like being old. It has set me free. I like the person I have become. I am not going to live forever, but while I am still here, I will not waste time lamenting what could have been, or worrying about what will be. And I shall eat dessert every single day
Today, I wish you a day of ordinary miracles.

Iggy: and one of my favorites...words to live by...imo
Here is a quote by - Charles R. Swindoll
The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, than money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do.
It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company... a church... a home.
The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable.
The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you... we are in charge of our Attitudes.

Dr. Mark Skidmore - Financial Crisis Might Be Best Thing
GregHunter: Nov 23, 2019
Michigan State Economics Professor Mark Skidmore revealed there was $21 trillion in what he calls “missing money” from the Department of Defense (DOD) and Housing and Urban Development (HUD) two years ago. This was a stunning revelation and the biggest auditing discovery in the history of accounting.
This is being ignored by academia, government and the MSM, but you cannot pretend there will be no consequences forever. Dr. Skidmore says, “The financial crisis that may come in the near future may not be the worst thing. That may be the best thing so we can reset and get a footing in reality and something that has integrity.
I am concerned we won’t turn back and move in the right direction. What does it mean to my children when a government can say we can just create fake books and pretend they are real? This sure looks like a giant fraud to me. . . .
These unsupported adjustments are a sign of fraud. Why don’t we look?” Join Greg Hunter of USAWatchdog.com as he goes One-on-One with Michigan State Professor Dr. Mark Skidmore, who discovered $21 trillion in ‘missing’ federal money.

"Breaking News From the North Pole" by Dr. Dinar
.Breaking News From The North Pole!
by Dr. Dinar
Just when I think I’ve heard it all, look what comes scrolling across my television screen.
I mean, you just can’t make this stuff up. Or can you.
What with all this fake news floating ’round out there, one can never be 100% certain.
Of anything. Especially what comes out in today’s mainstream media.
Yet, low and behold, there it was. Right before my eyes.
Breaking News From The North Pole!
by Dr. Dinar
Just when I think I’ve heard it all, look what comes scrolling across my television screen.
I mean, you just can’t make this stuff up. Or can you.
What with all this fake news floating ’round out there, one can never be 100% certain.
Of anything. Especially what comes out in today’s mainstream media.
Yet, low and behold, there it was. Right before my eyes.
While watching the latest episode of As The Dinar World Turns what should happen to pop up on my front screen but this amazingly unexpected Breaking News alert.
To say it caught my attention is a huge understatement.
In fact, if I hadn’t seen it myself it’s highly doubtful I’d be gullible enough to take someone’s word for it.
Fortunately I was able to capture this screenshot before it disappeared because as we know all too well, when certain super-sensitive info happens to slip through the cracks, somehow reaching the surface, it’s equally as quickly removed from existence, never to be seen or spoken of again.
Apparently, according to popular rumor, our bright-nosed buddy Rudolph, after who knows how many years of extremely dedicated, uninterrupted service, has given his notice.
As in his two week, tell HR to cancel my 401K, never to punch a time clock again notice.
Yes, the very same Rudolph that has spent nearly his entire life circling the globe, helping a certain special someone spread joy throughout the world.
Now, let’s think about this for a second.
What is Rudolph best known for.
Yep, using his oh so bright nose to lead a certain well known individual from country to country, house to house, chimney to chimney, all throughout the entire global community.
And who might this well known individual be that Rudy’s been helping with his nose so bright as well as his awesome sense of direction?
You guessed it, the one and only, ever elusive entity known as Santa Claus.
Good ol’ Kris Kringle, the jolliest guy this side of the North Pole Mall.
To say he’s well connected to those that are well connected goes without saying.
But does that mean he’s the most well connected guy on the planet?
Not necessarily.
Taking this a step further, who would most people consider to be the most well connected person on the planet.
Jeff Bezos, CEO of Amazon? While he may be labeled as the World’s Wealthiest Man, does that automatically imply his being the most well connected guy out there?
Not necessarily.
While his company unquestionably has global connections beyond contemplation, him personally, just not seeing it.
Bill Gates? Again, I picture him as someone that has far too much money and a personality that leaves quite a bit to be desired.
Once again, connections not being a priority in his life.
Not saying there’s a direct correlation between personal wealth and global connections but it certainly doesn’t hurt.
Take Mark Zuckerberg, the face of Facebook, for example.
Basically fell face-first into a huge bucket of funds and yet, he still can’t buy a personality.
While his company may boast of a couple billion monthly users, he himself, not too high on the connections list.
Sure, they snoop on you when you’re messaging and reprimand you when you’re a flake, but again, one on one connections aren’t their strong suit.
In today’s world not only do you need great communication skills as well as extensive global reach, it never hurts to have a bit of insider help as well.
And when you think insider connections, the who’s who of knowing who, who comes to mind.
Sure enough, the jolly ol’ fellow in the red suit.
Think about it. He’s got nearly everyone on the planet on his Lists.
Naughty, nice or somewhere in between, chances are more than good they’re on one of his Lists.
And when you take into consideration that he sees you when you’re sleeping as well as when you’re awake, there’s pretty much nowhere to hide.
So based on all of that, there’s only one thing we can conclude.
He’s as close to an RV/GCR source as we’re ever gonna get.
At least at our pay grade anyway.
No, he himself likely isn’t involved in the process per se nor is he in charge of pushing the GO button but who better than him to know those that are.
Therefore it only stands to reason that his actions are more than likely based on what he’s both seeing as well as hearing.
And yes, I have it on good authority that he’s a currency holder just like we are.
He’s no dummy. He’s done his research and despite all of the constant objections from Mrs. Claus, he’s gone all in on the IQD, VND and the ZIM.
He’s even gifted all of his Elves with currency as well.
Truth be told, after hearing how committed he was, it pushed me to get even further involved in the Top 3 possibilities.
And now, with this latest rumor floating around out there about Rudolph retiring and then the capper of all, knowing that Santa is out there secretly scouting the Bentley Sleigh market, it leads me to only one conclusion.
This thing is about to pop!
C’mon, it only makes sense.
First of all, why else would Rudolph be retiring.
Think about it. He only works one night of the year and collects unemployment for the remainder of the year.
Yeah, the rest of the time the other reindeer are continuously bullying him, laughing at him and calling him names.
But he learned to just roll with it, knowing what a great gig he has and now he doesn’t waste time giving his haters the time of day.
So when you’ve basically got it all wrapped up in a pretty little bow, why retire.
Does he know something we don’t.
Hmmm…. certainly looks that way, doesn’t it.
Especially when you consider that for the most part his only social interaction is with the most well connected individual on the planet.
And now we have said individual out shopping for a Bentley Sleigh, one can’t help but put 2 & 2 together.
It’s not like Santa’s a politician or anything, making millions upon millions, year after year, off the books.
Nope. Come to think of it, I’m not even sure he receives a paycheck of any sort.
So how on earth is he expecting to afford that new Bentley Sleigh.
Last time I checked Bentley Dealers don’t take milk & cookies as a down payment on a new car, let alone a new sleigh.
Is it possible he’s just out their Dream Sleigh shopping, doing his best to keep his RV/GCR dream alive?
That would be understandable but when you take into consideration Rudy having already tendered his resignation, that just doesn’t make any sense.
That on its own is some tough to argue with confirmation of forward progress right there.
To me everything points to Santa getting some serious hints regarding the pending release of the RV/GCR.
Some people are micro focused on Iraq and all the goings on over in the Sandbox.
And if that gives them the best perspective and helps them through the night, then more power to ’em.
For me, Iraq is far too 2012. Meaning it was okay way back when things were RV focused but now that we know the GCR has run right over the top of that RV game plan, like a runaway snowball racing down from the top of Mt. Dinar, I pay zero attention to anything Iraq-ish.
I much prefer to remain focused on the global economies and how the longer this thing drags out, the more countries continue to collapse.
Contrary to others who believe they want the entire world to collapse prior to all currencies going asset-backed, I’m of the opinion that in reality nobody wins if they allow everything to fold.
And from what I can see, this house of corrupt cards is getting awfully close to crumbling with each and every passing day.
Which only serves to give me even more hope that sooner rather than later, they’re finally going to have to release this thing.
Leading to Santa getting his dream Bentley and I can finally begin to rebuild my life as well as the lives of my family and friends.
Could I be wrong about all this, my interpretation being totally skewed by viewing everything through Dinar goggles? You better believe it.
Please keep in mind it’s simply my opinion based on absolutely nothing other than lots of faith and an overwhelming overdose of hopium.
If I am wrong, I don’t wanna know it.
After a decade on this journey, I enjoy having something to hold onto.
Admittedly the foundation of knowledge that I built far too long ago isn’t quite as stable as it once was.
With all of the changes in the process and protocols throughout this journey, that should be easily understandable by most everyone.
I’m fairly certain that I’m not alone in wondering if my sisters Hairdresser’s Dentist’s Nanny’s Brother in Law wasn’t right in saying that this whole thing is a too good to be true pipe dream.
Could that deterioration be caused by the Boy That Cried Wolf having finally lost his vocal chords after calling it so many times, thereby eroding my footings?
Again, all possible and easy to understand considering how long this has continued to drag out.
So if I’m wrong, please let me survive this journey by any means necessary.
And I’ll gladly do the same for you.
But if I’m right, which I truly hope I am, then this could very well be THE best Holiday Season on record.
Sheesh, I sure like the sound of that.
Just because they’ve failed to get it done all of the previous years they were rumored to be working on it, hoping to reach completion, doesn’t mean this Christmas won’t be different.
After all, according to pretty much everyone out there in Dinarland, everything’s done.
We’re simply waiting for the release.
Let’s hope they’re right this time. After all, they only have to be right one time.
And there’s no better time to be right than right now.
Rudolph, please enjoy your retirement and Santa, I know you’re gonna be flyin’ around faster than the QFS can process a wire transfer but remember, despite what the Bentley Salesman said, that GPS isn’t infallible.
Don’t hesitate to rely on Rudy for directions.
As you well know he’s been around the block a time or two and one can’t imagine a better co-pilot.
Hang in there folks, we could be in store for the best Christmas ever.
Kindly,
Dr. Dinar
