Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,
Global Digital Asset Rules Advance as Senate Nears Critical CLARITY Act Vote
Momentum is building behind U.S. digital asset legislation as lawmakers race to complete the CLARITY Act before the August recess, while regulators signal they are prepared to move forward even if Congress fails to act.
Overview
The Senate is facing increased pressure to bring the CLARITY Act to a vote before lawmakers leave for the August recess.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has urged Congress to pass the legislation, arguing that regulatory clarity is essential for maintaining U.S. leadership in digital finance.
SEC Chairman Paul Atkins stated the Commission is prepared to issue additional crypto regulations if Congress is unable to enact the legislation.
Key Developments
1. Senate Push Intensifies Before August Recess
Congressional leaders continue working toward a Senate vote on the CLARITY Act, which would establish a comprehensive regulatory framework for digital assets by clearly defining the roles of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC).
Supporters argue that the legislation would reduce regulatory uncertainty, improve investor confidence, and encourage innovation while maintaining consumer protections. With only a limited legislative window remaining, lawmakers are attempting to finalize negotiations before the Senate adjourns.
2. Treasury Secretary Bessent Calls for Immediate Action
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent publicly urged senators to move the legislation forward, emphasizing that clear rules are necessary for the United States to remain competitive in the rapidly evolving global digital asset market.
Bessent also pushed back against criticism surrounding portions of the bill, arguing that concerns over certain provisions should not delay broader regulatory reform. His comments reinforce growing support within parts of the administration for establishing a modern legal framework governing digital assets.
3. SEC Signals It Will Act Regardless
SEC Chairman Paul Atkins stated that the Commission is prepared to move forward with additional regulatory guidance even if Congress does not pass the CLARITY Act.
His remarks indicate that regulators are no longer waiting indefinitely for legislation and are prepared to use existing authority where possible. However, Atkins also acknowledged that congressional action would provide significantly greater legal certainty than piecemeal regulatory decisions.
4. Regulatory Clarity Could Accelerate Institutional Adoption
Financial institutions, investment firms, and blockchain developers have consistently argued that regulatory uncertainty remains one of the largest barriers to broader institutional participation.
A unified federal framework could encourage greater investment in tokenized assets, blockchain infrastructure, and regulated digital financial products while reducing legal uncertainty for businesses operating within the United States.
Why It Matters
The CLARITY Act represents more than cryptocurrency legislation—it is part of a broader modernization of the U.S. financial system. Clear rules governing digital assets could strengthen confidence in emerging financial technologies while helping position the United States as a leader in the next generation of global finance.
Why It Matters to Foreign Currency Holders
Many observers following international monetary developments view digital asset regulation as one component of the evolving global financial architecture. While the CLARITY Act does not affect foreign currency values or trigger any currency revaluation, it supports the development of regulated digital financial infrastructure that may increasingly interact with traditional banking and international payment systems.
Implications for the Global Reset
Pillar 2: Trade
Modern digital asset regulations could improve cross-border financial transactions by providing greater legal certainty for blockchain-based payments and international settlement.
Pillar 4: Technology
The CLARITY Act supports the continued development of tokenization, digital ledgers, and blockchain infrastructure that are becoming foundational technologies for the future financial system.
Closing Thought
This is not simply about regulating cryptocurrency—it reflects the broader transformation of the global financial system as governments work to modernize financial markets, establish trusted digital infrastructure, and prepare for the next generation of cross-border commerce and payments.

5 Pieces of Financial Advice to Avoid at All Costs
Suze Orman on the commonly accepted money tips it pays to ignore.
By Suze Orman
Bad financial information doesn't come only from scammers; even our loved ones can unwittingly steer us wrong. That's why knowing what not to do with your money is often your biggest asset. In general, there are two little words that should set off everybody's suspicion meter: Trust me. Anyone who gives you this line—whether a financial adviser or your significant other—is disrespecting you.
You should never entrust a money decision entirely to someone else. I know, I know: Sometimes you'd rather pass the buck. But remember, we're talking about your security, your future, your peace of mind.
It's one thing to hire an investment adviser to help you choose funds for your IRA, or to cheerlead a spouse as he or she sets up a 529 plan to help pay your child's college tuition. It's quite another to tune out completely.
Find an hour or so a month to peruse a personal finance Web site or a magazine like Money or Kiplinger's, which will keep you up-to-date on the basics. The blog at Mint.com is also a great resource, with posts on everything from choosing a mortgage to spotting medical bill errors. By educating yourself in these simple ways, you'll sidestep all sorts of traps. Here's some common advice you should disregard—and more profitable leads to follow instead.
Don't Buy It: "Your child's college degree is a great investment."
A blanket statement like this is missing a crucial qualifier: An affordable college degree is a great investment. The unemployment rate for Americans 25 years of age and older is a lot lower for college graduates than for those with only a high school diploma (3.9 versus 8.1 percent).
But that doesn't mean you should tell your kids to set their sights on any school—regardless of whether it will leave you with a crushing amount of debt. All too often, parents fail to strategize when it comes to paying for education and end up getting off the track to retiring comfortably.
Ironically, this does kids a major disservice: If you lack sufficient retirement savings down the line, your children are the ones who'll bear the burden of supporting you.
A Better Idea: Think in terms of long-run affordability. (This goes for you and your child, since I firmly believe kids must borrow for school before parents dip into their savings or take out a loan.) Mark Kantrowitz, publisher of FinAid.org, says students should limit their total borrowing to an amount no greater than what they can reasonably expect to earn in their first year of full-time work; borrow more, and the odds of running into payback problems and default soar.
Check out typical starting salaries at Salary.com; even if your child doesn't have a specific career in mind yet, it's a great exercise for families to do together, to start getting grounded in postcollege reality.
When it comes to financing options, remember that federal Perkins and Stafford loans offer the best deals; private loans are risky and can end up being far too expensive. The maximum Stafford loan amount a dependent student can borrow for all undergrad years is $31,000.
Parents who want to chip in should first figure out if they can afford to do so by using the T. Rowe Price Retirement Income Calculator and then look into federal PLUS loans.
Finally, your child should apply to at least one public institution; if money is extremely tight, there's also the option of attending two years of community college (whose credits are usually transferable) and finishing at a four-year school.
Don't Buy It: "Renting is a waste of money."
Buying a home can of course be a wise investment, especially considering today's record-low mortgage rates. But that doesn't mean choosing home ownership over renting is right for everyone. In some regions of the country, the cost of owning may still be higher than that of renting (to account for total ownership expenses, including property tax and maintenance, my rule of thumb is to add about 30 percent to the base mortgage amount).
And while home values may be stabilizing in many parts of the United States, that doesn't mean they're suddenly going to start rising at a fast and furious pace.
Over the next five to seven years, you still might not see a home's value appreciate the roughly 8 to 10 percent it would need to simply to cover the costs of relocating (which at the very least include the real estate agent's typical 6 percent commission, as well as movers' fees).
A Better Idea: Do the math carefully before you consider buying. Ask yourself: Do you have any inkling that you'll want to move in the next five to seven years, whether for a job, a fresh start, or a new experience? If so, purchasing a home is not a smart choice. Keep renting until you can commit to settling down for longer, and tune out everyone who says you're throwing away money.

Clare: The disappearance of small change from Iraqi markets: Who controls the flow of money?
July 29, 2026
Complaints are increasing in Iraqi markets from citizens and shop owners about the difficulty of obtaining small denominations of currency, especially the 250 and 500 dinar notes, in a phenomenon that disrupts daily sales operations and raises questions about the efficiency of distributing the local currency between the Central Bank, banks and markets.
Shop owners and customers told Al-Mustaqila that returning the remaining amounts to customers has become more difficult, prompting some stores to round up prices or replace the remaining amount with a small item, which represents an additional cost to the consumer when repeated in a large number of transactions.
There are no official indications that the two denominations will be withdrawn from circulation, as they remain legal tender. However, their continued legal tender status does not explain their limited availability in the market, particularly in sectors such as transportation, convenience stores, and services that rely on small amounts of cash.
The shortage may be related to weak demand from banks for small denominations, or their unbalanced distribution among branches and governorates, or some commercial activities keeping them to cover their needs, as well as quantities leaving circulation due to damage and overuse.
The currency moves from the central bank to banks, then to companies, traders and citizens, which means that the problem may occur in one of the distribution links and not necessarily in the size of the currency issue itself.
The central bank had previously instructed banks to promote the circulation of small denominations and open windows for replacing damaged banknotes, but the continued complaints indicate that the implementation of these measures has not ended the problem in the markets.
There is no publicly available periodic data showing the quantities of each category being pumped out, the number of banknotes withdrawn due to damage, or the share of each governorate and bank, which makes it difficult to determine the actual reasons for the shortage and the extent of the responsibility placed on each party.
There is no publicly available evidence that an entity is deliberately collecting the small denominations or that there is an organized market for selling them for commissions, but their continued scarcity may open the door to informal practices for providing them.
Despite the expansion of electronic payments, large sectors in Iraq still rely on cash, making the availability of small denominations a necessity for stabilizing sales and protecting consumer rights.
The crisis puts the central bank and banks to a test of transparency and efficiency in managing cash, as it requires publishing detailed data on the denominations in circulation and ensuring that banks and markets are supplied with the required quantities.
The question remains: if the 250 and 500 dinar denominations are still within the money supply, why don't they reach citizens and markets regularly? LINK

Iraqi Banks Accelerate US Compliance Measures
2026-07-30 07:08 Shafaq News- Baghdad Iraqi private banks have begun implementing urgent compliance measures tied to lifting restrictions on several lenders, banking sources told Shafaq News on Thursday.
The Central Bank of Iraq (CBI) instructions require stronger anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing controls, tighter governance, closer monitoring of dollar movements, and measures to prevent smuggling and illicit transfers, the sources explained, adding that banks were given deadlines to complete the procedures, with failure potentially limiting access to international banking services.

Employees at several private lenders separately told Shafaq News that management had intensified work, with some staff working about 12 hours daily and reporting severe exhaustion and fainting cases.
On July 18, Prime Minister Ali Al-Zaidi’s Media Office said CBI Governor Nizar Nasser Hussein held high-level meetings with US Treasury officials that produced an understanding to return restricted Iraqi banks to foreign correspondent channels in currencies other than the US dollar.

Hussein said seven banks are currently eligible to resume non-dollar correspondent banking and may later qualify for dollar transactions after completing further compliance and governance requirements.

Oil Prices Retreat On Steady Gulf Supply Routes
2026-07-30 Shafaq News Oil prices erased some of their previous gains on Thursday, despite escalating attacks in the Gulf as investor focus shifted to supply flows through the key chokepoints in the region.
Brent futures fell 96 cents, or 1.06%, to $89.78 a barrel as of 0418 GMT. U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude fell 64 cents, or 0.76%, to $83.82 a barrel.
Brent settled up 7.91% in the previous session and WTI up 6.56% in one of the sharpest spikes of the Iran war, reversing a 5% plunge on Tuesday after a pause in hostilities in the five-month conflict.
Prices surged as U.S. President Donald Trump threatened on Wednesday to hit Iran "very hard" after an Iranian missile attack on Tuesday on a U.S. base in Jordan.
On Wednesday, the U.S. and Saudi Arabia attacked Iran-backed paramilitary forces in Iraq, the first time that Saudi had publicly joined U.S. air strikes, in retaliation for drone attacks on Saudi oil targets launched from Iraq.
The U.S. also carried out two hours of attacks on Iran on Wednesday, the U.S. Central Command said. That ended a lull in U.S. strikes on Iran that began over the weekend.
"Trump’s 'hit hard' rhetoric caused the price spike immediately but looks like the market has fully priced (that) in and (is) considering the 'TACO' possibility right now," said Lin Ye, vice president of commodity markets, oil, at Rystad Energy, referring to the acronym Trump Always Chickens Out.
Ye said the market is following a pattern: geopolitical headlines are triggering rapid price spikes, but those gains are often short-lived as actual supply flows and parallel diplomatic efforts tend to determine how long those upward price moves persist.
Prices are being capped as crude supply is still moving from the key Gulf region despite the near shutdown of the Strait of Hormuz. Iran closed the waterway, through which around a fifth of global oil and gas flows previously passed, after the U.S.-Israeli war began on February 28.
Rystad Energy estimates about 13 million barrels per day of oil from the Gulf is still reaching markets.
Even after the Iran-aligned Houthis in Yemen imposed a naval blockade on Saudi Arabia in the Red Sea on July 20, disrupting shipping in the Bab el-Mandeb strait, some cargoes, particularly on Chinese-connected tankers, have flowed to markets.
"While overall volumes are reduced, oil continues to leak out of the region through multiple channels, and additional workarounds are being explored. The longer this situation persists, the more these alternative routes and methods will erode Iran's leverage over the Strait of Hormuz," IG market analyst Tony Sycamore said in a note.

Najaf Advances Oil Exploration With New Well
2026-07-29 Shafaq News- Najaf Najaf, in southern Iraq, is preparing to drill a new exploratory oil well in the Al-Qarnain oil block after completing the installation of a new drilling site, Governor Yousef Kanawi said on Wednesday.
In a statement, Kanawi described the project as part of the province's plan to explore and develop its oil resources.
Operated by China’s ZhenHua Company through Qarnain Petroleum Company (QPC), the Al-Qarnain field spans roughly 8,773 square kilometers near the Saudi border and is considered one of Iraq’s most promising exploration areas.

Three Oil Tankers Dock At Iraq’s Basra Port
2026-07-30 Shafaq News- Basra Three crude oil tankers with a combined capacity of five million barrels have docked at Iraq’s Basra Oil Port to load cargoes bound for global markets, a source at the state-owned General Company for Ports of Iraq told Shafaq News on Thursday.
The chartered vessels, operated by Indian and Chinese companies, berthed at the port’s single-point mooring terminals. Two can each carry two million barrels, while the third has a capacity of one million.
Additional tankers are expected in the coming days, with some already approaching Iraqi territorial waters and others waiting offshore for clearance.
Iraq, OPEC’s second-largest producer, exports about 95% of its crude through southern terminals, leaving it highly exposed to disruptions in Gulf shipping. Eco Iraq, an economic affairs observatory, estimated that the closure of the Strait of Hormuz had cut exports by about 350 million barrels by June 20, costing the country roughly $37.7 billion in revenue.
The Oil Ministry reported earlier this week that Iraq exported 32.11 million barrels of crude, including condensates, worth about $2.34 billion during May and June. The total comprised 20.24 million barrels from Basra, 10.31 million barrels of Kirkuk crude shipped through Turkiye’s Ceyhan port, and 1.56 million barrels from the Kurdistan Region through the same route.

According to Shafaq News market survey, the dollar traded in Baghdad’s Al-Kifah and Al-Harithiya exchanges at 150,650 dinars per 100 dollars, up from the previous session’s 150,300 dinars.

Gold extends gains in Baghdad and Erbil
2026-07-30 Shafaq News- Baghdad/ Erbil On Thursday, gold prices hovered near 855,000 IQD per mithqal in Baghdad and Erbil markets, according to a survey by Shafaq News Agency.
Gold prices on Baghdad's Al-Nahr Street recorded a selling price of 853,000 IQD per mithqal (equivalent to five grams) for 21-carat gold, including Gulf, Turkish, and European varieties, with a buying price of 849,000 IQD. The same gold had sold for 848,000 IQD on Wednesday.
The selling price for 21-carat Iraqi gold stood at 823,000 IQD, while the buying price reached 819,000 IQD.
In jewelry stores, the selling price per mithqal of 21-carat Gulf gold ranged between 855,000 and 865,000 IQD, while Iraqi gold sold for between 825,000 and 835,000 IQD.
In Erbil, 22-carat gold was sold at 899,000 IQD per mithqal, 21-carat gold at 859,000 IQD, and 18-carat gold at 735,000 IQD.

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,
Global Digital Asset Rules Gain Momentum as Senate Faces Critical CLARITY Act Deadline
Growing bipartisan support and renewed pressure ahead of the Senate recess are keeping U.S. digital asset legislation at the center of efforts to modernize the financial system.
Good Morning Dinar Recaps,
Global Digital Asset Rules Gain Momentum as Senate Faces Critical CLARITY Act Deadline
Growing bipartisan support and renewed pressure ahead of the Senate recess are keeping U.S. digital asset legislation at the center of efforts to modernize the financial system.
Overview
Support continues to build for the CLARITY Act as lawmakers push to complete negotiations before the Senate's August recess.
Ethics provisions remain the primary obstacle, even as many lawmakers agree on the need for clear digital asset regulations.
A successful vote would establish one of the most comprehensive federal regulatory frameworks for digital assets, potentially strengthening America's leadership in financial innovation.
Key Developments
1. Senate Faces Narrow Legislative Window
With only a limited number of legislative days remaining before the August recess, Senate leaders continue working to advance the CLARITY Act. The compressed schedule has increased pressure on negotiators to resolve remaining issues quickly while maintaining bipartisan support.
2. Ethics Negotiations Continue
The largest remaining challenge centers on ethics language governing public officials' involvement with digital assets. While revisions have narrowed differences, several senators continue seeking stronger safeguards before supporting final passage.
3. House Support Remains Strong
Representative Mike Haridopolos publicly reaffirmed support for the legislation, arguing that regulatory clarity is essential for keeping blockchain development, investment, and innovation inside the United States rather than moving overseas.
4. Regulatory Certainty Could Unlock Institutional Growth
The legislation would clarify which digital assets fall under SEC oversight and which belong under CFTC jurisdiction. Industry participants believe greater certainty could encourage additional institutional participation while improving investor protections and reducing regulatory uncertainty.
Why It Matters
The CLARITY Act represents far more than a cryptocurrency bill. It is part of a broader transition toward digitally integrated financial markets, where tokenized assets, blockchain infrastructure, and regulated digital payments increasingly become part of mainstream finance. Clear regulatory rules may also influence how global investors allocate capital and how other nations design their own digital asset frameworks.
Why It Matters to Foreign Currency Holders
Many observers of international monetary reform believe digital asset regulation represents one building block of the evolving financial system. While the CLARITY Act does not change currency values or trigger any revaluation, it could strengthen confidence in regulated digital markets that increasingly interact with traditional banking and payment systems.
Implications for the Global Reset
Pillar 2: Trade
Clear digital asset regulations could improve cross-border financial transactions by reducing legal uncertainty for blockchain-based commerce and digital settlement.
Pillar 4: Technology
The legislation supports continued development of tokenization, blockchain infrastructure, and regulated digital financial markets that are becoming increasingly important to next-generation financial systems.
This is not simply about cryptocurrency legislation—it reflects the broader modernization of financial infrastructure as governments work to balance innovation, regulation, and trust in the evolving global monetary system.

🌱 A Message to Our Currency Holders🌱
If you’ve been holding foreign currency for many years, you were not foolish.
You were not wrong to believe the global financial system would change.
What failed was not your patience — it was the information you were given.
For years, dates, rumors, and personalities replaced facts, structure, and proof. “This week” predictions created cycles of hope and disappointment that were never based on how currencies actually change.
That is not your failure.
Our mission here is different: • No dates • No rates • No hype • No gurus
Instead, we focus on:
• Verifiable developments • Institutional evidence
• Global financial structure • Where countries actually sit in the process
Currency value changes only come after sovereignty, trade, banking, settlement systems, and fiscal coordination are in place. History and institutions confirm this sequence.
You will see silence. You will see denials. That is not delay — that is discipline.
Protect your identity. Organize your documents. Verify everything.
Never hand your discernment to anyone who cannot show proof.
You deserve truth — not timelines.

Tishwash: Iraq Launches Starlink Satellite Internet Services Nationwide
At a Glance
Iraq officially activates Starlink satellite internet services.
The project utilizes low Earth orbit technology to connect rural areas, bypassing damaged ground-based infrastructure.
Iraq’s Communications and Media Commission announced the official launch of Starlink internet services across the country.
Key Statements and Focus Area
CMC Executive Authority Head confirmed the launch, enabling citizens to utilize the service under new regulatory guidelines.
The initiative is part of a broader technology initiative backed by the Prime Minister.
Baligh Abu Kalal, Head of the CMC's Executive Authority, stated on Wednesday that “the Starlink service has now been officially launched in Iraq.”
This announcement follows the completion of technical and legal procedures that spanned several months. Moving forward, citizens can utilize the service in accordance with established regulatory guidelines.
The official launch follows a landmark licensing agreement signed by Abu Kalal in Washington on July 17, under a broader technology initiative backed by Prime Minister Ali Faleh al-Zaidi.
The deployment aims to overcome Iraq’s historical broadband deficits by utilizing low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite technology to instantly connect remote and rural regions without relying on fragile ground infrastructure.
Technical negotiations took several months because Baghdad mandated strict data sovereignty, implementing dedicated API monitoring systems for the Iraqi National Security and Intelligence services. link
FYI:
Starlink is a global satellite internet service developed by Elon Musk’s SpaceX. The primary objective of the project is to deliver high-speed internet to every corner of the world, particularly to remote areas that lack access to standard internet lines or suffer from weak communications infrastructure.
According to technical data, standard download speeds on the Starlink service range between 25 and 220 Mbps, while upload speeds consistently average between 15 and 35 Mbps.
Regarding the financial cost, the monthly subscription fee for users inside Iraq is expected to be above $50, which is considered a reasonable price relative to its performance capability.
To date, SpaceX has deployed a massive constellation featuring over 10,800 active Starlink satellites in orbit, moving steadily toward its ultimate long-term target of 42,000 satellites.
Operating in LEO, Starlink delivers an ultra-responsive latency of 25 to 60 milliseconds. While local, regional fiber-optic networks can offer slightly lower latency and higher top-tier consistency in heavily urbanized zones, Starlink bridges the digital divide seamlessly by providing instant, high-speed connectivity to rural and infrastructure-depleted areas without any reliance on ground-based cabling.

Tishwash: these are the ones they use now not the ones we are waiting for
Why have small denominations disappeared from the markets? Al-Zaydi's advisor reveals the reasons.
The Prime Minister's financial advisor, Mazhar Muhammad Salih, revealed on Wednesday the reasons for the scarcity of small denominations of currency in Iraqi markets, stressing that this is mainly related to their paper nature and the high speed of their circulation, which leads to their deterioration within a short period of time.
Saleh told Shafaq News Agency that issuing currency in its various denominations is one of the core tasks of the Central Bank of Iraq, which is responsible for managing the currency and providing the necessary liquidity to meet the needs of economic activity and ensure the smooth flow of payments and the stability of cash transactions.
He explained that small denominations of currency represent the primary tool for conducting low-value daily transactions, which makes them the most commonly traded among citizens and markets, and therefore the most susceptible to wear and tear.
Saleh added that Iraq, unlike many countries that rely on coins for small denominations, still uses paper denominations, noting that the lifespan of these denominations does not exceed about one year according to international standards, due to the intensity of their use and their continuous transfer between hands, at a time when reliance on paper money remains high while electronic payment methods continue to grow.
He pointed out that the Central Bank has accurate indicators and statistics to measure the demand for different denominations of currency, and it is the first entity to sense the market’s need to issue or reprint any denomination, especially the small denominations, which are characterized by their rapid circulation compared to the large denominations, which tend to be more towards saving or hoarding.
The government advisor concluded his remarks by saying that "providing small denominations is not just about issuing currency, but also represents one of the indicators of efficient cash management, and contributes to ensuring the smooth flow of economic activity and the stability of the payments system," stressing that "these denominations are continuously monitored by the Central Bank of Iraq."
Iraqi markets are experiencing ongoing suffering due to the scarcity of small denominations of currency, such as 250 and 500 dinars, which puts citizens and shop owners in front of frequent difficulties in completing daily buying and selling transactions.
Sellers often resort to compensating for the shortage by giving alternative goods such as gum, tissues, or sweets instead of returning the change as in the markets, while others are forced to round up or down prices, which provokes consumer dissatisfaction. link
Tishwash: Coordination framework: Iraq's security and sovereignty cannot be violated or compromised under any circumstances.
The Coordination Framework affirmed that "Iraq's security and sovereignty are inviolable and cannot be compromised under any circumstances, and it rejects turning Iraq into an arena for regional and international conflicts."
A statement from the Coordination Framework's media office indicated that "the Framework held an emergency meeting Wednesday evening at the Government Palace to discuss the American-Saudi attacks on Iraq's sovereignty."
According to the statement, the Coordination Framework condemned the aggression targeting Iraqi territory, which resulted in the martyrdom of several members of the Popular Mobilization Forces and the injury of others, in a blatant violation of Iraq's sovereignty and territorial integrity, and in contravention of the principles of international law and the UN Charter.
The Framework expressed its astonishment at this attack, especially given the government's adoption of a balanced foreign policy based on building cooperative and partnership relations with its regional neighbors and the international community.
He offered his sincere condolences to the families of the martyrs and wished a speedy recovery to the wounded. He affirmed that Iraq's security and sovereignty are inviolable and cannot be compromised under any circumstances, and he rejected turning Iraq into an arena for regional and international conflicts.
He emphasized that "the attacks targeting Iraq and violating its sovereignty do not serve regional and international efforts aimed at containing the crisis and de-escalating tensions, but rather contribute to complicating the situation and threaten security and stability in the entire region." link
***************
Tishwash: Al-Aboudi: Three factions have begun handing over their weapons to the state, and talks are underway with Washington and Tehran to support the monopoly of arms.
National Security Advisor Qasim al-Aboudi revealed new developments in the file of restricting weapons to the state, stressing that the government held talks with the United States and Iran to support this path, while announcing that three factions have begun procedures to hand over their weapons to official institutions.
Al-Aboudi said in a televised statement that Prime Minister Ali Faleh al-Zaidi’s visit to Washington contributed to developing the course of Iraqi-American relations and moving them to the framework of economic partnership and security cooperation, indicating that the two sides agreed to resume training programs and security coordination, as well as discussing a number of joint files.
He explained that the issue of restricting weapons to the state requires dialogue with the various concerned parties, noting that some factions were linking their continued possession of weapons to the presence of American forces, and that an understanding regarding the end of their presence removes one of the justifications that were being put forward in this context.
He added that the government discussed the issue with the Iranian side, noting that Tehran expressed its readiness to support efforts to restrict weapons after being convinced of the withdrawal of US forces, stressing that Baghdad emphasized during the meetings its rejection of the use of Iraqi territory or targeting it in any conflict.
Al-Aboudi stressed that the government is committed to ending the presence of any weapons outside the framework of the state, noting that the next phase will witness new steps to strengthen the authority of official security institutions and consolidate the state’s monopoly on weapons. link

Bruce’s Big Call Dinar Intel Tuesday Night 7-28-26

Welcome everybody to the big call tonight. It's Tuesday, july 28, and you're listening to the big call. Welcome everybody, and I hope everybody is finding themselves in a nice state of mind and state of health, and looking forward to everything that we have to say on tonight's call.
And I'm looking forward to giving my segment, but listening to Sue and Bob.
Now I'm going to get into the Intel portion of my segment. So thanks, Sue, for participating, and everybody else.
Okay, we got some really interesting things today, and I was almost hoping I would get a call during the big call to confirm something that I'm going to talk about in a minute.
You know, you guys know that we're very close on this thing. You know how antsy I get when we get toward the end of the month.
What do we have left in the month? Three days left: 29, 30/31, Right. And I'm thinking, okay, all right. Well, what we've heard today.
Remember, a lot of sources have dried up, but we do have some information that came from a couple of different sources that are that are very reliable. First of all, let me just say what we're getting is that Redemption Center leaders have been contacted, and they've been told that they have to go in to the Redemption Center before noon on Thursday,
and this is where it gets really interesting.
And continue on a schedule to go 21 days, beginning Thursday for 21 days, including Sundays, ostensibly, this is for exchanges to be taking place, redemption of Zim, and exchanges of currencies at the redemption centers.
I have to be very clear in saying that at redemption centers, which use the toll-free number to set the appointments for those redemption centers that are close to your zip code.
All right. Now I'm making a point of this because what we're hearing is, we have some information that says that we will be able to exchange starting as early as Friday, and it appears that it could be as early as Thursday afternoon, or Friday, and we've also heard that from one of the bond paymasters that they are supposed to be receiving the fund for bondholders into the paymaster's accounts on Friday, so they can disseminate or distribute those funds beginning on Saturday to the actual bondholders' individual accounts.
So it's a Friday Saturday start that is projected for the bondholders - Friday into the paymaster's accounts, and then he turns around and puts them into the bondholders' accounts on Saturday.
Saturday is guess what, the first day of August, and you know I get squirrely about the end of the month thing. Are they going to do something with us on the last day or last two days of the month, or are they going to defer to the first of August, which would be Saturday?
Now I'm being told the people that are in the exchange positions that we could start as early as Thursday afternoon. That's only a few days away, or maybe on Friday.
Now, this is the interesting thing that's coming to me now. We heard this piece of information that came this afternoon, and I can't tell you where it came from exactly, but what I find interesting is the intel, which I have not proven. We haven't confirmed it. This is right now is what we would call hyperbole or unproven.
Supposedly, the banks will are not "quote unquote" ready to exchange yet, and that they would be ready to exchange starting the 20th or 21st of August.
Now, isn't that interesting?
So, banks might not be ready to exchange until the 20th or 21st first of August, and yet redemptions are prepared to exchange as early as the 20 or the 30th of July and go 21 days, which would take them to the 20th of of August.
You see what I'm trying to get at here? Are we literally going first with redemption centers with banks to follow, and them, yeah.
See, the reason I say that, Sue, is all right. Here's my theory. This is only my theory on it. I don't have this proven, but we know that when we go to redemption centers, the first thing we do is KYC, know your customer.
They'll take your picture, make sure you're not a mass murderer, make sure you're okay, make sure you're not on some kind of wanted list, and then boom, you get started with know your customer.
They they sit you down and all that good stuff. Basically, it's a simple thing. They know who the Zim holders are, except for people that were gifted Zim.
They've approximated the number of people who have been gifted Zim. They don't absolutely know, but they've got an idea. All right, here's the point: they've got us in there, and they want this incredible exchange, not only current currencies, but redemption of ZIM, not to go to the deep state, not to go to bad people.
Okay, so is it conceivable that we are going first Because everybody essentially, if they want to get exchanged and they have Zim to redeem, they have to use the redemption centers.
It's a theory, and it sort of makes sense because that way everybody need even if they go to a bank and a bank says no. Listen, you need to make an appointment.
Here's the number to call to set your appointment to go to a redemption center because they're not going to exchange. They're not going to redeem them at the banks anyway, and the rates on the dinar are not going to be what the contract rate is at the redemption center.
I've told you guys this for how long? Two years, so so that's a theory. I just I think that's so. There's no such thing as coincidence, and I think this makes sense that the banks would actually start after the redemption centers went for three weeks, 21 days.
So. I think that's interesting that we got that information. I hoped I would be able to prove it before the call and confirm it, but I'm just going to say let's take this as hearsay.
It may be true, but it does not affect our start date at the Redemption Centers, we should start Thursday or Friday of this week, based on the information that we're getting.
And I'm going with it. I'm going with it Now there are rates that are populating on the screens in the last two days and today, there were no rates.
The last two days prior, there were rates on screens, and I know that Sunday and Monday. I know that today, no rates doesn't mean a thing. They'll bring their rates up when we get started, when we get ready to go.
And guess how many rates are on the screens? How many positions for rates? 51 - 51currencies. That's fantastic. That's a lot of currencies.
And our understanding is there's no second or third basket. One and done. One basket.
One currency. You got them. Smoke them.
That's the old expression from World War II. We don't smoke. We don't believe in smoking, but you got them. Exchange them.
So I think that's amazing.
And other intel type information. I understand that we're going to have a memorandum of Understanding with Iran that they will sign on Friday that essentially give us what we need to move forward with Iran. They have no money.
They the there's no money coming in from UK or other. They've basically been frozen out. They're they they're surrendering. Finally, they're doing a surrender. That's what it amounts to. They may not call it that, but that's what it amounts to.
And I think that's great. It comes down to the fact that President Trump knows what he's doing-it might not look pretty all the time, but I think it's it's a good thing. And if we can put that to bed and get something going between Zelensky, who was supposed to be today, I didn't see him on. Said I didn't watch the news at all, but I don't know if he was in meeting with the president or not today.
Theoretically, was going to be there for the funeral of Lindsey Graham. So I don't know what happened or if they met before or after that. But I'm hoping we can get a deal with Zelensky and Russia and put that whole thing to bed. Cuba is in the new sum now.
I know we want to make a move to to change their form of government to get out of communism, and so that's that's what should be happening.
I know that there is so much. You guys know when I say there's cleanup on aisle 3 / 4 / 5, and so on. What that's referring to, there's a lot of cleanup underway, a lot of it globally.
It should. I mean, I can't even tell you how many. It's big numbers, and it should be done theoretically by Sunday. Quite possibly by Sunday.
But I'm hoping and believing that we will get those numbers.
Listen, if we're going to be exchanging Thursday afternoon, we need to get numbers by either tomorrow or Thursday morning.
So I'm just going to leave you with that.
I'm excited about this information. I'd love to confirm that whole thing about are the banks ready or not ready? Why? Why wouldn't they be ready?
I don't know. I just I think it's being done to stagger this Exchange opportunity so that Zim holders obviously they want us to get in go first we know that you know but are we literally going to redemption centers only no bank until the 20th or 21st of August now that's what we've heard I'm not confirming it. I'm just saying it's out there.
We'll see, and hopefully we have this thing confirmed or denied by Thursday night's call, and maybe we'll have our numbers by then, and it'll be a moot point, won't it? At least For us, I'm glad that Sue was here tonight and Bob to hear this, and also to hear about the food loops. ? Thank you, Sue, for for knowing about that.
So let's just-and I have to thank Big Call Universe, you guys, for just being a part of the big call, I can't wait to tell you guys everything one day, but stay tuned even after this goes.
Maybe not live calls anymore, but yeah, I'll do a recorded call and put it in an email that'll go out to everybody that wants to be part of Rebuild America.
Okay, so let's just let's just go ahead and look forward to the next couple of days, and let's see if we get our notifications tomorrow or Thursday. All right, so let's pray the call out.
Well, good night, everybody, and have a good night. And we look forward to talking with you on Thursday night. Okay. God bless

Good Evening Dinar Recaps,
U.S.-Iran Conflict Escalates Again: Military Strikes, Hormuz Tensions, and New Sanctions Raise Global Economic Risks
Renewed military action, expanded sanctions, and growing instability in the Strait of Hormuz are increasing pressure on global energy markets while further complicating diplomatic efforts between Washington and Tehran.
Good Evening Dinar Recaps,
U.S.-Iran Conflict Escalates Again: Military Strikes, Hormuz Tensions, and New Sanctions Raise Global Economic Risks
Renewed military action, expanded sanctions, and growing instability in the Strait of Hormuz are increasing pressure on global energy markets while further complicating diplomatic efforts between Washington and Tehran.
Overview
The U.S.-Iran conflict intensified again as Iran launched missile attacks targeting U.S. forces in Jordan, prompting retaliatory U.S. and allied military operations against Iran-backed militias in Iraq. Diplomatic efforts have not completely collapsed, but active military operations have once again taken center stage.
The Strait of Hormuz remains the central flashpoint. Iran has rejected proposals regarding management of the strategic waterway while renewed attacks on shipping continue to disrupt one of the world's most important energy corridors.
The United States simultaneously expanded economic pressure, announcing new sanctions targeting Iranian shipping, maritime insurance networks, and vessels linked to Iran's energy exports, demonstrating that Washington is combining military, diplomatic, and financial pressure.
Key Developments
1. Military Confrontation Intensifies
The conflict entered another dangerous phase after Iran launched ballistic missile attacks against U.S. forces stationed in Jordan.
The United States reported intercepting the incoming missiles before responding with coordinated strikes against Iran-backed militia positions in Iraq, signaling that military deterrence remains a central component of U.S. strategy.
2. Strait of Hormuz Remains the Critical Battleground
The Strait of Hormuz continues to be the world's most strategically important oil chokepoint, carrying a significant portion of global crude oil and liquefied natural gas shipments.
Recent attacks on vessels, combined with Iran's rejection of new proposals concerning management of the waterway, have renewed fears that shipping disruptions could continue well into the summer.
3. Sanctions Campaign Expands
Rather than relying solely on military action, the U.S. Treasury announced another round of sanctions targeting companies, insurers, and tankers connected to Iran's maritime operations.
The expanded sanctions are designed to restrict Iran's ability to finance military activities through oil exports while increasing economic pressure on the Iranian government.
4. Diplomacy Has Not Ended—But It Has Become More Difficult
Although fighting has intensified, communications between Washington and Tehran have not completely disappeared.
The earlier Memorandum of Understanding and previous indirect negotiations created channels for future discussions. However, continued military exchanges have significantly reduced confidence and complicated efforts to return to meaningful negotiations.
5. Markets Respond to Growing Uncertainty
Energy markets immediately reacted to the renewed escalation.
Oil prices moved higher as investors priced in increased geopolitical risk, while global markets monitored the potential impact on inflation, shipping costs, and central bank policy if disruptions continue.
Why It Matters
The renewed escalation demonstrates how quickly geopolitical conflict can affect energy markets, inflation, global trade, and financial stability.
The combination of military operations, sanctions, and uncertainty surrounding the Strait of Hormuz places additional pressure on central banks already attempting to balance inflation control with slowing economic growth. Continued instability also increases risks for global supply chains and international commerce.
Why It Matters to Foreign Currency Holders
Higher oil prices can strengthen inflationary pressures across many economies.
Rising geopolitical uncertainty often increases demand for safe-haven assets and reserve currencies.
Currency markets may remain volatile as investors respond to developments affecting global energy supplies and international trade.
Implications for the Global Reset
Pillar 1: Energy
Continued instability in the Strait of Hormuz highlights how critical energy security remains to the global financial system. Disruptions to oil shipments influence inflation, central bank policy, and economic growth around the world.
Pillar 2: Trade
The conflict demonstrates how strategic shipping routes have become central to global commerce. Prolonged disruptions could increase transportation costs, alter supply chains, and accelerate efforts by many nations to diversify critical trade routes.
Conclusion
The latest developments show that the U.S.-Iran conflict has entered another period of heightened uncertainty despite earlier diplomatic progress.
While negotiations have not formally ended, military actions and expanding sanctions are currently driving events far more than diplomacy.
This is not simply about another military confrontation—it reflects the growing intersection of geopolitics, global energy security, international trade, and financial stability as governments navigate an increasingly fragile global economic system.
