Rock1941: so getting rid of isis didn't mean squat?
Briona: If isis was still active in Iraq, there would be no chance of an RV, so isis being gone is a big deal. Iran is also a big deal.
Eccle519: The issue with Iran in Iraq is more of a century old Suni and Shiite Problem. Our thinking is citizenship Iraqi or Iranian or Mexican and American. But religious ties are so much more difficult but the bottom line is they need to root out the corruption regardless of religious belief. I believe they are doing that now
Eccle519: The US has invested Trillions into Iraq and the plan is not going to fail...it's just been adjusted and added to over the years. The launch is fast approaching imo!
Eccle19: Who is in control, imo is the ones that have invested the most money...so not the IMF or WTO or UN and NOT Iraq!! The USA is in control because they have the most invested and with this business minded Admin in the White House, it's close to a done deal

ChrisC: You are SO right here. Most people are soft and lazy and have had to make no, or very little sacrifice to have the comfort and safety that they currently enjoy.
The Patriots that sacrificed their lives and risked their families to give us this safety and comfort are heroes, just as the ones in Iraq are that are willing to sacrifice their lives and risk that of their families. I have to say, they are taking this with WAY more control than I think I could exhibit.
I would be more like Rambo in First Blood and tearing it up with a belt fed machine gun.

DELTA: picture
Popeye7: Thanks Delta for bringing us the latest on how corruption is being dealt with in Iraq... I have to admit that I'm surprised that Mahdi was involved...
The other 2 shown, well, we knew they were being used by Iran... Can you explain why the Kurds were willing to work with Mahdi?... They were unwilling to work with Maliki for obvious reasons... Neither were they willing to work with Abadi... Was Mahdi gotten to in the end?... Especially after setting the stage for the economic reform to take place?...
Certain things do not make sense to me... Did Mahdi allow himself to be used in order to bring out those who were hindering progress within Iraq, and not allowing reform to take place?.... So many things going on behind the scenes we do not know about... Anyway, thanks again, and God bless...
DELTA: YOU WELCOME ...MAHDI GAVE THE KURDS MORE THAN MALIKI ..FOR SOME REASON MAHDI LOVE THE KURD ...BUT LIKE I SAID BEFORE CBI IS MOVING FORWARD AND IMO NEXT WEEK SHOULD BE SOOOOOOOO HOT ...
Popeye7: So both Maliki, and Mahdi were essentially keeping the Kurds happy from a financial perspective, and thus allowing them to continue to allow for Iran to run things in Iraq, while bribing elected officials within Iraq... That would explain why it was so difficult to get quorum within Iraq's parliament... CBI moving forward in order to help ensure that the people of Iraq have an opportunity to weed out corruption within their government... Looking forward to this weekend into next week...
Rommy: IMO these 3 should be handed over to the Iraqi citizens.
ChrisC: IMO, if they don't get to hang someone they will never feel satisfied. Imagine if someone captured your family and slowly starved them to death and tortured them. Would you feel good if they just got fired or went to jail? I doubt it.
That article yesterday saying how low Iraq was in education, safety, desirability to live there, etc. on an international scale was appalling. Iraq was almost ready to dissolve.
These A holes had almost sucked the life out of Iraq and they need to swing. A really good parasite (evolutionarily that is) is one that isn't even noticed by the host. A really stupid one is one that sucks the life out of the host until they are dead. That is what Iran was doing to Iraq, sucking the life right out of them.
If they hadn't been so greedy, Iraq might not have complained about it or even noticed it, but that, thankfully, is not how it played out and Iraq is taking a big spoonful of wormer now.
Maliki deserves to swing for being so stupid. If I was him, I would have Ethan Hunt make me a mask and I would be living as a sherpa in the Himalayas.

Alison: Delta, I sure hope so! So far these stated "necessary conditions" for the RI to happen seem to be nothing more than wishful thinking. More of an excuse for inaction rather than a reason to proceed.
For the love of God CBI-- just give the citizens what you have promised!
Now we know clearly why WS previously expressed his frustration when doing business in Iraq! Holy Moley!!! Iraqis are so backward in their ability to move forward they make standing still look like substantial progress! LOL

Samson: Iran: Iraqis have the right to criticize the wrong management of their country
15th November, 2019
Tehran's interim preacher, Grand Ayatollah Emami Kashani, on Friday backed Iraqi protests against what he called "the incorrect management of their country."
"There is a strong reference in Iraq, and the Iraqi people, with their consciousness and interest in the authority, managed to dispel the strife that was planned for Iraq," he said.
"The Iraqi people have the right to express their opinion and protest the high cost, and the Iraqis have the right to criticize the incorrect management of their country," he said.
Titus2Mom4: Then IMO Iran it's time for you to go. Leave Iraq alone.

IMO..they can see that the GOI is being "worked" on because Mahdi within less than an hour yesterday changed his stance and said that there were new members put in place that were Not affiliated with any blocks..i.e. new blood in the pen..IMO.. and then today to see a 0 on the auctions...it all sounds really good to me for a possible showing of S&S (security and stability) for the RI!

Samson: IBBC hosts Major Iraqi Business Delegation in London
14th November, 2019
IBBC hosts largest ever delegation of Iraqi business people at London Business Forum
In a wide-ranging business event over 230 Iraqi business-people and 70 British gathered to meet and discuss Business relations, trade, investment and engagement with the UK’s Business community.
Delegates from all regions of Iraq through the chambers of commerce gathered to hear from representatives of trade associations, IBBC members, chambers of commerce and investors.
Baroness Nicholson, President of IBBC, welcomed the new Iraqi Ambassador, H.E. Mr Mohammad Jaafar Al- Sadr, who gave a keynote address at the conference. The Ambassador speech was followed by an address of H.E Mr Karwan Jamal, High Representative of the Kurdistan Regional Government.
Of note were the panel from Iraqi business people, headed by Dr Dara Jalel Al-Khayat, Chairman of Federation of Chambers of Commerce and Industry of Kurdistan, and representatives from Babil, Baghdad and Basra Chambers, as well as the chair of the Importers and exporters association in Kurdistan.
From the British side, a panel consisting of Rod Dowler of the Industry Forum, Alan Rides MD of Hounslow Chamber of Commerce, Brigadier James Ellery of Turnkey LLC and Mr Peter Hunt of HWH Associates and Raed Hanna, MD of MFL Finance, all spoke positively of their experiences in Iraq, but tempered with advice on improvements to the Iraqi experience. Finally, Jessica Hao of Crossboundary associates spoke of opportunities to invest in start-ups and SMEs in Iraq with support of USAID.
Key messages included the enthusiasm with which the Iraqis are keen for British Investment into numerous sectors in Iraq, especially Agriculture, Petro Chemicals, Food Processing, Housing and Consumer goods.
The idea of joint ventures with British know how and expertise and Iraqi partners are also suggested as ways to overcome perceptions of risk in the country. However, many delegates all supported the notion that despite the present legitimate protests in many parts of the country overall peace and stability has returned to Iraq following the defeat of DAESH and that the business environment is getting more favourable. Nevertheless, much needs to be done to free up and boost the private sector, an essential step to meet the demands for real jobs and futures of the ever-increasing young Iraqi population.
Following the formal event, the delegates networked extensively with each other and the British contacts in the room.
The group move onto Northampton University, Ardley high tech waste centre, and High-tech leather innovation centre in Northampton University before returning to Iraq. LINK
MilitiaMan: They didn't have a Baghdad Fair? Really? The venue just may have changed location.. On schedule (hiccup)... lol ~ MM

Don961: Iraqi women correct the course of the uprising
- 14 Hours Have Passed
By coming out of silence, Muqtada al-Sadr proved that he lives in another world. A magician has lost his ingenuity. Just old tricks, just like the wooden language he used .. Even the shape is out of date to suit the requirements of the presentation.
Sadr found only a consuming phrase to use, linking what is happening today in the Iraqi street, and the "forces of global arrogance."
The Iraqi street is rising today because of this language, a language that smells of loyalty to the mullahs of Iran.
Unlike Sadr, Shiite cleric Ali al-Sistani said he feared the protests would reach the holy city of Najaf.
While Sadr rushed to question the popular uprising, and hint at the existence of an imperial conspiracy behind him, Sistani refused to ask the demonstrators to withdraw from the yards of protest.
The Iraqi government is making every effort to break up the sit-ins, end the uprising, and empty the Tahrir Square in central Baghdad.
Pro-Iranian parties may succeed in breaking up protests. But it will not succeed in removing the reasons that led to the uprising of the Iraqi street. The formal concessions it seeks to make, and the change of ministers' faces with new faces, will not be accepted by the protesters.
The Iraqis rose up against Iranian control over their country, specifically, and against Iran's proxies in Iraq, the clergy and politics. What Iraqis want now, after tired of the sectarian game played by the clerics, is to return Iraqis as they were, first. Iraqis will no longer accept to be humiliated in Mesopotamia and to live in a country with no authority to law, the country that enacted the first law known to mankind.
Third, the form of the exit of Iraqi women, to participate in the protests men, added the intifada gained another dimension. The demands of women are not limited to the rejection of the political class, the power of traditional parties, the quota system, and corruption.
The women's uprising is against "religious tribalism," which promotes ideas about women's role in society.
The Iraq represented by Moqtada al-Sadr is not the one that the Iraqi women aspire to today. What the Iraqi women aspire to is Hammurabi Iraq, which singled out women with 30 legal articles in their law. Iraq in which the country was ruled by queens such as Queen Sha'bad, Semiramis, and Copapa.
Does Sadr, and others like him, believe that three decades are enough to erase a civilization spanning four thousand years? Despite its ugliness, the 20th or 30th years will not forget us, the Nazik Angels of Iraq, Mary Nerma, Polina Hassoun, Leila Attar, Zaha Hadid and Asia Kamal.
Sistani and Sadr, along with parties loyal to the mullahs of Tehran, may be able to quell the protests for a while, but they will certainly not last.
What is happening in Iraq today is an extension of what is happening in Syria, in Lebanon, in Libya, and in Yemen. And what happened in Sudan, in Egypt, and in Tunisia .. It is an uprising on the internal and external tutelage.
Sadr and Sistani should have kept silent, and since they chose to speak, they would now be better prepared to leave.
The Arabs link
MilitiaMan: This is a powerful message! There is now twice the power behind it too. The silent are now AWOKE! Good deal! Sounds like SADR and SISTANI are now on notice that the warehouse full of money was an eye opener, and the lack of attention to the citizens needs (including female) of late has been duly noted. They clearly see that Terhan's influence was not lost on blind eye's. Sadr's recent trips to Iran were public.. Today the auction for cash was 0.. Very interesting... imo ~ MM

Sadr and Sistani are being called out by the good women and men of Iraq now.. Loyalty to Iran may not be a good venue, let alone being found out to be complicit in the outcome of the dead from said weapons.. ~ imo ~ MM

Oil rose after data in the sector showed a sudden decline in US crude inventories, while additional support came from an OPEC official's comments on the below-expected growth in US shale oil production in 2020

Swept Iraq, a wave of angry and violent protests in Baghdad and the southern provinces, where the demonstrators were chanting for the fall of a political institution say it does not give them priority in their interests.

"The province, which represents the lion's share of Iraq's crude oil exports, but we are unemployed and poor even though we see oil rights flares every day, where millions of dollars have gone," said activist Huda from Basra.

“But with all this, Iraqi citizens rarely see the fruits of these wealth due to financial mismanagement, inefficiency, bureaucracy and corruption, where the total unemployment rate is about 11% while 22% of the population live in poverty.”

I recall that exchange rate fluctuations in the past were caused by speculators' rumors in the market, but reflecting the commitment of everyone to the country's fate and the country's economy.
Question: How long will the exchange rate hold?
Certainly, it is necessary to hedge the possible variables as the situation continues for a longer period and may cause future volatility, God forbid.
In order to benefit from the Lebanese experience that is undergoing the same conditions and movement, the tracer of the popular movement is seeing legitimate fears of losing control over a fixed exchange rate that has lasted for decades.This means that the disruption of banks and the central bank from working will affect the reality of the exchange rate and its repercussions on the general economic situation.
They are confident that a successful monetary policy is able to deal with events in order to mitigate the potential effects, provided that it is allowed to continue its activity.
Although this part is seen as small compared to the effects of the popular movement on the economic reality, I find that this part is of great importance to compensate for all possible losses due to events.
I am talking here as an economic observer away from what is being raised by the attempts of some to involve monetary policy in this movement; it is a safety valve for public money .. However, I call the Central Bank, through its strategic partner, the Association of Private Banks to maintain contact with public and private banks to track the effects of the movement on the financial and banking reality Expected and researched how to deal with crises and their effects.
Whatever the outcome of the movement and events going through Iraq, the result is always to maintain the national economy and the outcome of how to manage liquidity and maintain the balance of exchange and this is what we pledge monetary policy independently and impartially, so that the Central Bank remains independent as the Iraqi judiciary and then win the interest of the country that Inclusive and subject matter requires wisdom and prudence in dealing with peaceful popular movement and the possible effects.

Why bother preparing, only to jerk the proverbial rug out from underneath the Iraqi citizen?... As Frank pointed out, Mahdi has made some asinine statements during these protests... Which again does not make sense to me...
Is there another reason the Iraqi PM is making himself look like the bad guy in the eyes of the Iraqi citizen, and those paying attention to what is transpiring within Iraq?... Is he being used by the Iranian government, or is he willingly being used to draw out the Iranian influence within Iraq?...
The one thing that still puzzles me is that the Kurds were willing to work with Mahdi in order to unite themselves with Baghdad for the betterment of the Iraqi citizen... But the Kurdish leadership did not want to work with former PM Abadi... All IMO...

Tuesday, November 12, 201
Inflation is defined as a continuous rise in the general level of prices. The rise is always associated with a continuous decline in the value of money.
Inflation rates are governed by a range of factors, including the country's monetary policy, the size of GDP, the balance of trade with other countries, the country's self-sufficiency rates of industrial and agricultural goods and products, and population growth rates.
Inflation comes from the large and persistent demand for goods and products and the lack of supply, because of the imbalance between supply and demand in favor of demand, leading to a cumulative rise in prices of goods, products and services and a successive decline in purchasing power للنقود.
Inflation is also an economic phenomenon to which the various countries of the world are subjected to their different capitalist or targeted economy.
Inflation causes negative economic and social impacts on members of society of varying intensity, which requires work to reduce these negative effects, both economic and social.

Iraqi American National Friendship Association thanks White Houce concerns to events in Iraq
Tuesday، 12 November 2019 01:32 AM
The Iraqi American National Association sent a letter to President Trump thanking him for the White House concerns to the ongoing events in Iraq.
The message was as follows:
Dear Mr. President,
As you are well aware that Iraqi demonstrations that started since October 1st have been brutally attacked by the Iraqi regime and their militias working under the guidance and instructions of Iranian general Qasem Suliamani who is on the US terrorist list. More than 300 innocent protesters have been killed, over 15 thousands injured and hundreds detained and kidnapped.
We are very encouraged and excited by the White House statement issued yesterday by Stephanie Grisham that shows your administration's concerns to these events and your call on the rest of the international community to join you in supporting a better future for the Iraqi people.
The people of Iraq are simply fed up with this corrupt regime that has been funneling billions of dollars every year to the Iranian regime evading the US sanctions while our people in Iraq lack basic services of water, power, health and education and employment.
The free Iraqi people are requesting the US administration to take immediate action in supporting them in:
- Closing all militias.
- Getting rid of Iranian personnel and influence.
- Resignation of this sectarian government.
- Dissolve the corrupt parliament.
- Establish a transitional government of technocrats, professionals and senior military individuals that have no affiliation to any of the existing religious and political parties.
- Rewrite the constitution away from religious and ethnic quota.
- Have a new free election under the supervision of the United Nations.
Your Administration involvement is eagerly needed.
Thank you.

MilitiaMan: WOW! This one has all that we need in it.. MARKET ECONOMY! Not at 1190 you don't. lol ~ MM
2Cents: Hey MM, Just to point out that IMO this appears to be what was agreed and voted in 2004 on which today they did a first reading to amend......
DinarDiva1: Thanks so much for the comments! How many times do they have to vote on it ?
2Cents: Hey DD, IMO, they voted on the original in 2004 and have amended it two times since. I vaguely remember the last time which I believe was to solidify the autonomy of the CBI...It was a couple years ago and had us all excited...I have not seen what this Amendment today was to be for which has me "curious" especially in light of no Sales posted YET for today.....
Giants: Thanks 2, IMO, and let’s wait and see, since this is an amendment we don’t need 3 read throughs to be a law. Therefore, if this could be one of the laws you mentioned that could be voted on tomorrow. ( if I’m wrong, pleas feel free to correct me) but if this is the case everything the CBI is doing with the auctions could make since. But let’s wait and see before anyone gets too excited. But all looks like things are coming to an end especially since an article came out today saying that the budget will be ready at the end of this month. And many agree that the 2020 budget should have a new market rate.
2Cents: Great points Giants!!!....IMO, the Amendment will need a 2nd Reading and can then move to vote......And, I think they have to go at least 48 hours between the First and Second Readings, it may be longer but i am unsure. That is why I think it could be voted Saturday
Let’s also not forget the Kurds are supposed to come in this week to hopefully finalize an agreement on all things. And Barzani met with the 3 presidents today which I believe was to lay the groundwork for the working group.

Harambe: Bloomberg: Cashless Zimbabweans Kept Waiting as Banknotes Fail to Arrive
(11/11/19)
Zimbabweans haven’t had their own currency for almost a decade and on Monday cash-strapped citizens were kept waiting a bit longer for the promised first batch of new banknotes.
The Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe was expected to officially release the $2 bond coin, Z$2 and Z$5 banknotes in a bid to ease a cash crunch. The Zimbabwe dollar was reintroduced by authorities in June as the sole legal tender.
The bank notes and coins would substitute electronic balances, the central bank said and Z$1 billion would be “drip-fed” into the economy over the next six months to help end arbitrage and premiums charged for cash of as much as 60% on the parallel market.
Zimbabwe President Emmerson Mnangagwa reiterated at a rally over the weekend the cash and coins would be in circulation by Monday, but none had arrived at banks at the country’s two biggest cities by mid-afternoon.
John Mangudya, the central bank governor, didn’t immediately respond to calls seeking comment on the delay in the release of notes. The Bankers Association of Zimbabwe didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment.
