5-29-2014 Newshound/Intel Guru BGG [Are you confident M is gone?] we already know - just a matter of time till THEY KNOW IT. Maliki is living on borrowed time and doing all he can to s-t-r-e-t-c-h it out.
5-29-2014 Intel Guru DC IMF, UST, UN, bankers...literally just waiting...it is my understanding all are on lockdown again. It was supposed to have been this weekend but the US asked it to be pushed past Memorial day for numerous reasons. It is now being ramped up again. Power players in Iraq are expecting this to go quickly and security is extremely tight right now & on phone black out. UN folks are ready for the actual RV. The DFI funds were released...some segments still under protection but were released. [Are we still on track for the end of the month.] Yes. [Is the dong still in the 1st basket? over 1.00?] Yes, I believe so but don't be surprised if it changes. Everything looks really good and extremely optimistic.
5-29-2014 Newshound/Intel Guru BGG [I think i can wait one more month!] You may not have to - the way the "amended 13303" and revision were worded is very telling... (to me).
5-29-2014 Newshound Guru Millionday I HAVE TO SAY FOR AN EXECUTIVE ORDER TO BE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE THAT MEANS SOMETHING FOR SURE TO ME -- THEY ARE MEANING RIGHT NOW.
5-29-2014 Newshound Guru wmawhite OFAC [Office of Foreign Assets Control] acts under Presidential national emergency powers, as well as authority granted by specific legislation, to impose controls on transactions and freeze assets under US jurisdiction. Now it was OFAC that published the amendment to EO 13303. Therefore, the assets of the CBI are no longer under sanctions within the USA. The importance here is that if OFAC prohibits a country, our banks are unable to do business with that country. Now, OFAC is stating that all sanctions are lifted as to the CBI. [so the sanctions being lifted means our banks can now deal with Iraqi dinar?] if a bank chooses to do so. [it seems this was a big issue to overcome to see MR occur for this country? Am I on the right track?] One of the biggest for us to exchange the IQD within the USA.
5-29-2014 Intel Guru TNT Tony Its a great day in Dinarland. I can't tell you why it did not happen but everything good right now. The DFI has been released and if that has been released then you should know what's really going on without going into any depth with it...it's a great reason for us to be excited. There was a little bit of turmoil yesterday, one hell of a roller coaster ride in the last 24 hours but right now we are smooth sailing. Their goal was to try to get to the 1st of June. We were hoping they didn't and we don't know if they are going to or not. We are just biding out time. [Is the contract rate still a possibility?] Absolutely! [Will there still be a walk in street rate, international rate, low and high contract rate?] That's what I heard. We are waiting for more good news...waiting for a shorter window. Let's see what happens. It's not the 1st yet. We don't expect to see the 1st.
5-29-2014 Newshound Guru Millionday the change in the 13303 other than it being not extended it has also lifted all of Iraq`s consequences and moved them forward so that all and i mean all of their money is under their own control and also the debts are as well as with all other countries...this is a new executive order to give iraq all control...huge news and of course this lets us know why the confusion that came with the end of the 13303 -- it was for amendments and for the movement forward for Iraq to the global market obviously.
5-29-2014 Intel Guru Delta [IYO, is it absolutely necessary that a GOI is seated before the RV is released by the CBI?] NO. [From the bottom of your heart, do you really feel we will see our blessing soon?] IMO BEFORE JUNE 14, 15. FOR WASHINGTON TO LIFT THE IMMUNITY AND GIVE IRAQ AND CBI THEIR MONEY IS A STRONG INDICATION THAT IRAQ IS READY TO RV.
5-28-2014 Newshound Guru Adam Montana [What if by some miracle, Maliki gets a third term. Will our hopes for an RV this summer be TOTALLY dashed?] Absolutely not. In fact, the opposite - Maliki has been working, tweaking, solidifying many alliances and "backroom deals" for years now. Maliki is better prepared than any other potential leader to continue moving Iraq forward.
5-28-2014 Newshound Guru wmawhite now we know why EO 13303 was extended on 22 May...because it had to be in place in order for it to be amended yesterday. This amendment was published by OFAC...Office of Foreign Asset Control. OFAC over sees all U.S. banks and regulates who they may do business with. OFAC has just told all U.S. banks that all assets of the CBI are no longer sanctioned by EO 13303. And...what are the CBI assets? Its currency! [Iraq is positioning, getting all their ducks in a row to RV!] you are correct! ...take pleasure in knowing this is a huge step.
5-28-2014 Intel Guru Mnt Goat So we are hearing strongly now that the plan is for Maliki to serve a 3rd term in spite of the overwhelming strong opposition to him. To be prime minister once again we are being told that Maliki must first assist the CBI in completing the revaluation and restructuring of their currency before he becomes official. They have given him a June 6th deadline, the final day set for the judicial system to ratify the election results.The new rate must go international by then. This is the base currency for the global currency reset (GCR). However there is still hope since the final election results are not yet ratified and announced in Iraq. They are still sit at the crossroad and can freely decide what path to take.
5-28-2014 Newshound Guru Adam Montana ...I'm not surprised or upset that there's not much new to report right now! In a nutshell...something could happen today, tomorrow, or next week. I don't have an exact date, and I'm not going to get too excited OR frustrated about any particular minute, hour, day, or week over the next month... but I do like how things are going right now, and I am willing to officially say this: CHANGE IS COMING FOR IRAQ!
5-28-2014 Intel Guru Frank26 [do You think Ramadan will delay the MR (Monetary Reform) to bring forth an IR (International Rate)?] Nope. To waste such valuable MR TIME until then by the GOI would not be murder... It would be suicide.
5-28-2014 Intel/Newshound Guru Poppy3 ALL IS WELL AND APPEARS TO BE MOVING FORWARD IN SPITE OF ALL POLITICAL MANIPULATING. STAND BY FOR GREAT REWARDS.
5-28-2014 Intel Guru Hub iraq is a growing entity, they are doing things to become world leaders...currency revaluation, world leadership...this giant is about to show its head...Iraq is the modern day giant...they are about to blossom and...we are along for the ride...
5-28-2014 Newshound Guru Kaperoni Executive Order: "Ending Immunities Granted To The Development Fund For Iraq And Certain Other Iraqi Property And Interests In Property Pursuant To Executive Order 13303, As Amended" The way I see it, Obama never extended the protection of the DFI on May 19th, he only extended the "national emergency" in regards to Iraq (which never needed extension). This news today confirms the "national emergency" is still in place, yet the funds under the DFI are no longer protected. He is giving them control of their money and it will be up to Iraq to resolve any remaining debt issues or lawsuits will commence. One can make a reasonable assumption that giving them their money (DFI), and the liability that goes with it, as a push to stand up and engage with the world financial system which includes the dinar.
5-28-2014 Newshound Guru Millionday 13303 is ended and the kurds are working with the federal government and they are working to make the budget work and they are listing the article 140 results. they are working on all of it together -- hcl -- budget--reforms, etc. they had to have all projects ready and activated by june 1st -- this week and the beginning of next is very important. [post 2 of 2] [See Dinar Guru Master List of Possible "To Do's" in the Dinar Guru Resource bar on the left]
5-28-2014 Newshound Guru Millionday [The big question is why do you suppose EO 13303 was rescinded today (Tuesday)?] because Iraq made their case as they do not need it -- they have 8 countries left and have made very trusting agreements as to how they will be paid and with how much interest and also with trade agreements -- the US is not needed to protect their monies and they were able to make that point...this is great and the results we wanted to see. [post 1 of 2....stay tuned]
5-28-2014 Newshound Guru Aggiedad77 Article: "A member of the parliamentary finance: Parliament will hold its sessions and the budget will be postponed for the next session" So according to one MP on the Finance Committee...politics continue to get in the way of any effort to approve the 2014 budget...but that should not be much of a surprise to anyone...they will put off the budget discussion until the new government is seated...IMO...this has been a ploy by the Speaker of Parliament from the beginning back in January to postpone this budget as long as possible...yet he seeks to be President of Iraq...he was totally ineffective in leading Parliament.
5-27-2014 Newshound Guru Tlar It is my opinion since the first straw poll that Maliki is finished. There are some out there that will argue this outcome but I think the argument has been resolved with the election results even if they have not been released yet. The opposition has 200-210 MP'S out of a possible 328. IMO Maliki is not going to be around more than another week or two unless he can break the will of the coalition. The coalition has yet to have made its move. Most everything you read about Maliki still has chances are false hopes... it is my belief that the SOL will dump Maliki and it to will support the coalition seeking to agree to a nominee that will be acceptable to all...So hang in everyone. We will see nothing but crap put out by the Maliki supporters IMO for the next two weeks. This has to be played out this way in order to come out right.
5-27-2014 Intel/Newshound Guru Poppy3 EXECUTIVE ORDER: "ENDING IMMUNITIES GRANTED TO THE DEVELOPMENT FUND FOR IRAQ AND CERTAIN OTHER IRAQI PROPERTY AND INTERESTS IN PROPERTY PURSUANT TO EXECUTIVE ORDER 13303" this appears to be great news as we all should remember this DFI fund was set to be released on the 22nd and several countries where demanding they be paid their war retribution funds. IT IS GOING TO BE VERY INTERESTING TO SEE HOW THEY REACT NOW AND WHAT IRAQ PLANS TO DO TO CONTROL THE FUNDS. I AM GETTING EXCITED...WOW GOOD STUFF. GET READY TO CELEBRATE...EXCITING NEWS. THIS THING COULD GO DOWN THIS MONTH YET. TIME WILL TELL. [See Guru BGG's post below]
5-27-2014 Newshound/Intel Guru BGG Just released today… big news: EXECUTIVE ORDER: ENDING IMMUNITIES GRANTED TO THE DEVELOPMENT FUND FOR IRAQ AND CERTAIN OTHER IRAQI PROPERTY AND INTERESTS IN PROPERTY PURSUANT TO EXECUTIVE ORDER 13303, AS AMENDED. I, BARACK OBAMA, President of the United States of America, have determined that the situation that gave rise to the actions taken in Executive Order 13303 of May 22, 2003, to protect the Development Fund for Iraq and certain other property in which the Government of Iraq has an interest has been significantly altered. Recognizing the changed circumstances in Iraq, including the Government of Iraq’s progress in resolving and managing the risk associated with outstanding debts and claims arising from actions of the previous regime, I hereby terminate the prohibitions contained in section 1 of Executive Order 13303 of May 22, 2003, as amended by Executive Order 13364 of November 29, 2004...
5-27-2014 Newshound Guru Millionday they are meeting on the budget - hcl -- article 140- and also the formation of the government for Iraq, so a very important week to say the least.
5-27-2014 Newshound Guru Aggiedad77 Article: "Uncertainty as Iraq election results revealed" With the formulating of appeals to the election results the Electoral Commission is not expecting "final final" results until the end of June or early July...it seems that State of Law coalition is working on other Shia blocs to form an alliance...that if they will all come together they believe they have enough to form the new government...while Maliki is busy trying to pull together supporters his opponents are equally busy trying to insure he is unseated as PM. The next few weeks should be very interesting.
5-27-2014 Newshound Guru Shredd [what are you waiting to see happen in the next month? from a banking point of view?] the removal of the zeros project launch, that's more from economic approach...for banking/finance approach...the new isx platform launch...
5-27-2014 Intel Guru TNT Tony No fussing, no fighting. We are now just waiting for time to pass (that's code). It is a timing issue.
5-27-2014 Intel/Newshound Guru Poppy3 THE MONTH OF JUNE IS A DEADLINE MEANING THEY HAVE TO HAVE THE FINANCIAL RESTRUCTURING COMPLETE PRIOR TO THE RELEASE DATE. THIS IS FACT! IT IS OBVIOUS TO GET THERE THEY WILL HAVE A RV PRIOR TO THESE DATES. ...MY SOURCES IN WASHINGTON SAID THE MONTH OF JUNE WOULD BE THE RV MONTH. I STATED THEY WERE IN AGREEMENT TO WAIT TILL THEY KNEW FOR SURE WHO THEY WILL BE DEALING WITH AT THE CBI AND PRIME MINISTER POSITION AND THEY ARE STILL SAYING THE SAME.
5-27-2014 Intel Guru TerryK I WAS REALLY SURPRISED WE DID NOT SEE THE RI OVER THE WEEKEND. MY SOURCES ARE DUMBFOUNDED THIS AM. [I don't think it will happen until the GOI is seated.] I HEARD THAT AS WELL SO ...WITHIN THE NEXT MONTH...BY JUNE 15TH.
5-27-2014 Intel Guru MarkZ [was the ball moved closer to the goal line over the weekend?] It was a FANTASTIC weekend. I was hoping it would move over the line but it alas...It only moved closer. That it moved and moved well though is a great thing. [are we still primed for this month?] This month is still the goal.
5-27-2014 Newshound Guru American Contractor It appears that the new Iraqi dinar currency with the security enhanced banknotes have now been introduced into the Iraqi economy. American Contractor has not seen these banknotes personally, but my sources tell me that there has indeed been some distributed and in circulation. ...I would just like to mention that there are [some] that have said that Prime Minister Nuri Maliki does NOT want to change the Iraq dinar currency. This is bogus, unsubstantiated reporting. In fact, this couldn’t be further from the truth. If it is indeed true that the new currency IS in circulation that would indicate proof that PM Maliki is actually RESPONSIBLE for its release...he is actually all for economic development in Iraq.
5-27-2014 Intel Guru Jester [are you of the persuasion that everything that needed to be done by Iraq has been completed?] HAS BEEN FOR A LONG TIME IN MY OPINION. [Its been quiet all weekend...is this the quiet before the storm or, is it just that nothing is going on?] THERE IS PLENTY GOING ON...JUST HASN'T GOT TO THE STAGE YOU CAN SEE ANYTHING YET...
5-26-2014 Newshound Guru Millionday [Can the CBI, IMF, and/or the GOI stop this change in the value of the currency, for whatever reason?] CBI AND THE IMF CAN. THEY CAN STOP AND NOT MOVE FORWARD AS THEY ARE STATING THEY ARE, BUT WHY WOULD THEY? -- THIS IS GREAT PROGRESS. [post 2 of 2]
5-26-2014 Newshound Guru Millionday THE JULY 1ST DATE IS THE FORMAL ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE NASDAQ OMX...AND IT WILL BE FORMALLY IMPLEMENTED IN JUNE...WHEN A COUNTRY ENTERS THE GLOBE ON THE STOCK MARKET THEY HAVE MANY PRODUCTS AND ONE OF THEM IS THEIR CURRENCY – IT HAS TO BE AT A CALCULATED RATE THAT IS FAIR AS IN COMPLIANT WITH INTERNATIONAL VALUES. [So, will they need the RV by the 1st?] THE FIRST OF JULY TO HIT THE GLOBAL MARKET WOULD MAKE YOU THINK THEY WOULD --- I CANT LOGICALLY THINK OF HOW THEY COULD GO TO THE GLOBAL STOCK MARKET AND NOT HAVE A REALITY RATE... [post 1 of 2....stay tuned]
5-26-2014 Intel Guru Frank26 Lets just say that the present state of our investment has me dancing to a Top Ten Hit...Fleetwood Mac...Don't Stop thinking about Tomorrow...
5-26-2014 Newshound Guru chattels i believe that i am correct in saying that the next Parliament in Iraq will be seated mid - June, but that is not the GOVERNMENT of Iraq, the Government of Iraq is the Prime Minister , etc. ...the Government of Iraq is elected by the Parliament.
5-26-2014 Newshound Guru Stryker In my opinion we will not be seeing currency reform take place until this new seated government is completed... [See the Dinar Guru Master list of Possible Major " To Do's " list in the Dinar Guru Resource Bar on the left...Item #11]
5-26-2014 Newshound Guru Adam Montana [if Maliki is reinstated why do you think anything will be different than the past? Assuming that Maliki's failure to set up a legitimate government is part of the problem with the RV.] Things are definitely changing! We can see that the Kurds are gaining power, the ability for Iraq to delay and not give in to their wants is quickly weakening, and I believe we are picking up steam as a result.
5-26-2014 Newshound Guru chattels ...assuming this Thursday, May 30, we have an end /resolution to election "complaints" and a beginning to a reliable timeline, i.e., ratification /certification of the election results, then we should have the next government of Iraq on or about July 14, 2014. *** NOTE: Ramadan 2014 begins in the evening of Saturday, June 28 and ends in the evening of Monday, July 28. [Am I mistaken or don't they work through Ramadan, Isn't it a holiday where they fast during the day and eat in the night hours?] it is the subject of debate every year...i believe that work and Parliament will continue.
5-26-2014 Newshound Guru Tlar The ISX is planning to go live on a NASDAQ platform before the end of June with Erbil to follow in July. They are going international sometime before the end of June IMO. Another good sign.
