It was announced last week that we are withdrawing US troops from Syria, which led to talk of Turkey ramping up attacks on the Kurds...Trump responds by saying if Turkey steps out of line we will hit them in the wallet, and...we're all like "wait what about the Iraqi Dinar?!" Article quote: "...After World War I, Western powers promised Kurds their own homeland in the agreement known as the Treaty of Sèvres. But a later agreement instead divided them among Turkey, Iraq, Syria and Iran..." ...let's identify "the Kurds"... Quote: "Today, there are about 30 million Kurds living across the region, with about half of them in Turkey. Iraq is the only country in the region to have established an autonomous Kurdish region, known as Iraqi Kurdistan..."

So, this current news cycle we are reading and hearing about involving "the Kurds" isn't specifically about Iraqi Kurds, but the events unfolding right now are going to do one very significant thing with regards to Iraq...a message is being sent. I'm not saying I approve or disapprove of the tactics, or the decision to withdraw troops, or the decision to put them there in the first place. But what's happening right now is irrefutable evidence that the US of A has a huge influence in the Middle East, the affairs of the Middle East, and therefore... the Iraqi economy, which includes the trade value of the Dinar. What this sets up in the near future is the confidence and assurance that with the US on their side, Iraq can make changes, improvements, and progress. What happened to Turkey in the past, and may happen very soon again, can happen to Iraq. The same is true of the inverse... where we can inflict severe harm, we can also support massive gain.
