Just a 'little'! You have to crack jokes and say funny things to take up the time between the RV and to keep what little sanity we all may have left, if any at all- I try to keep a funny outlook, but sometimes, between the gurus and their b.s,I want to just squeeze their necks until the pus runs out of their eyes, Know what I mean? Everyone knows me here, and have been here going on almost 3 years, and if they aren't familiar with me now, well, then, that's a different story!!! US Turns up the Heat 2834342768

in Iraq and abandon the protection of Iraqi funds

Baghdad / Orr News - A senior political source revealed
about the intention of the U.S. administration to inform the Iraqi government a
message that the U.S. government worried about the financial and monetary
developments taking place in the country.
He said that the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad, told the
Iraqi government that the U.S. delegation from the U.S. Treasury, “Finance” will
arrive to Baghdad, accompanied by a bank officials the U.S. Federal Reserve,
“Federal Reserve” to inform the Iraqi government a message that the U.S.
government is concerned about financial developments and the current cash in the
country.

The source, who preferred anonymity, said that the essence of the message
boils down to that the U.S. administration is not interested in the protection
of Iraqi funds in the Development Fund for Iraq account the “DFI” of the Iraqi
Ministry of Finance. The source added that the U.S. administration will raise
her hand for the protection of Iraqi funds in the month of May 2013, explaining
that the Iraqi government will be informed of the decision not to renew
according to an official letter. The source pointed out that the U.S. administration has become concerned
about the future of Iraq in light of the political pressure experienced by the
country, stressing that they indicate a clear case of exclusion of several
political components.

the Coalition Provisional Authority was recognized, by a decision of the
Security Council of the United United 1483 and after the dissolution of the
Coalition Provisional Authority in June 2004, has been delegated the U.S.
government by the Government of Iraq to manage funds of the Development Fund for
Iraq, which was made available for reconstruction projects, and the U.S.
Defense Department, the administration of the said fund on behalf of the U.S.
government, the mandate was withdrawn with effect from 31 December 2007.

The Iraqi government is keen to ensure the extension of the work of the Fund,
which was established in 2003 after the fall of Saddam Hussein in order to
protect the revenue from sales of oil and natural gas in Iraq. Iraq has been
under since 1990 under Chapter VII of the Charter of the United Nations, which

Remember IMF, FED RES and UST are all run by the same people... IMF
extension was up in February... their extension was specifically for the
following reason (article word for word) ---> "The
IMF announced on his agreement with Iraq through which their loan
extended for seven months until February 23, 2013 for the Iraqi
Government to implement a range of actions in the exchange-rate regime
in the country." Its been 2 months and Iraq has NOT
implemented ANY actions in the exchange-rate regime in the country...
FEDS and UST dropping them in May is an ultimatum... Don't forget ...
the same people that rule the IMF, FED and UST, also run the UN, WB, BIS
and all other major LOANS that were given to Iraq to "rebuild" ... it
is absolutely ridiculous to believe that ALL of the above are NOT
interested in the DFI... when that money is the ends to justify the
original means of the war... Its the very reason for the war in Iraq in
the first place.
