 Kaperoni   Article:  “Central announces solutions to avoid a shortage of dollar “deviation” in the price of holidays”   They should have been doing this all along.  Taking days off allows for the spread to increase due to a shortage.  I would guess the IMF had a hand in this to get them to start attempting to get in compliance…and the CBI trying to minimize losses by only holding auctions on a schedule. But the reality is the fix is not to conserve dollars, it is to weed out the corruption.

We are Stabilizing IQD Exchange Rate without a space for Speculation: CBI Governor

On Sunday, the Governor of Iraqi Central Bank issued a statement that main objective of CBI is to stabilize the balance between the sale of U.S dollar and demand in the domestic markets. He also added that the sustainability shouldn’t be considered an edge of speculation and huge profits. The Governor of CBI delivered his words in a press interview with Alsumaria News and indicated that the Bank is looking to maintain a balance between the sales of U.S dollar and to keep it stable. He pointed out that the balance of foreign currency has become strong in the past couple of years and there isn’t any kind of space for speculation and huge profits. He added that Iraq has been experiencing some exceptional circumstances and a significant amount of decline in the global oil prices was considered one of the major reasons behind the economic and financial crisis in the country.

“Iraq is going through extraordinary circumstances because of the drop in oil prices significantly, which makes the central bank’s policy to two options either to respond to the dollar to eliminate the margins and this will be at the expense of reducing the reserves of foreign currency or sell the sale and accept the margin of exchange rate rise, “The bank seeks to balance the two goals.”

Abadi: heading towards the economy, development and education

Put the prime minister, Haider al-Abadi, among other points, said that the government will strive to achieve during the coming period, following the military victories achieved, taking economic aspects, developmental, educational, as well as the fight against corruption and activating the law, on top of those points.

Calls for the prime minister, to activate the developmental aspects in Iraq, came after the great military victories in Mosul, those victories described by US President Donald Trump during a telephone conversation with al-Abadi, as “great stories resonate throughout the world.” For the third day of victory announced the tenth of July, which was followed by the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces, rolled cables of international greetings, which praised the courage and the ability of security forces to defeat terrorism, all of which have agreed on the need to assign Iraq’s efforts in post-elimination entirely on “Daesh” a position adopted by the Emir of Kuwait, Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah, who expressed his country’s readiness to host planned for the reconstruction of Iraq and the international conference. Ebadi said, in a speech opening the Cabinet meeting on Wednesday:

Islandg1211 (Dinar Guru) –    Eight months ago, I posted that we would need to see in this order before the RV…the following:
1) Mosul Liberated, Announcement by Abadi, and a Celebration. Done.
2) Agreement with Kurds, including oil and territory settlement, then finally the HCL will be in position to be passed by the GOI. (Kurds, including Barzani and the oil minister from Baghdad meet today…)   Getting Done.
3) CBI re-educating citizens on the deletion if the three zeroes (we are seeing the payments in country with e-dinars, CBI website upgraded to BIS), and finally
4) Iraq being compliant with Article VIII with the IMF and 5 – UN lifting sanctions and the RV.
The IMF is meeting with Iraq in DC this week. The UN came out a couple of days ago and told Iraq they need to be Article VIII compliant/RV. The lynchpin to the RV, now that Mosul has been declared liberated by Abadi, the Kurds and Baghdad finalizing the HCL agreementBarzani wants independence, and this agreement is going to have to allow for that contingency in order to get him to sign off on it.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

_____________________________________________________________

 Islandg1211 (Dinar Guru) –   This was a VERY IMPORTANT meeting today, which I was expecting. I’m expecting to see the CBI starting to re-educate the public on the RV. These CBI articles should be coming out within the next couple of weeks.  I’m still looking towards end of summer for the RV.   Again, the agreement with the Kurds over oil is the lynchpin now, and this article should make everyone very happy along with the UN publicly saying that Iraq needs to RV (via IMF Article VIII compliance).  If an agreement is reached with the Kurds, it’s time to really start with your post-RV plans.  [post 2 of 2]

Delta (Dinar Guru) –   …the CBI has to move forward.  The media … just like we predicted … as soon as they get Mosul … speed of light.  Right away the media has been jumping the gun on talking about the economy, etc. ..the CBI…we’ve known since January they been wanting to pull the trigger.  The next 24-48 hours is going to be very interesting.
_____________________________________________________________

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) –   We found something – a press release from the West – congratulations from President Trump to Abadi – all he says is congratulations about Mosul.  Then we have the same article from an Arabic site which shows additional information – they also talked about congratulations on the reforms.  Donald Trump called Abadi…IMO…they were talking about the monetary reform. …They’ve got security and stability man!

Trump confirms Abadi spoken to: great victories stories reverberate in the cities of the world

Word For the Day~
Baghdad: Euphrates News} US President Donald Trump said on Tuesday that the Iraqi victories stories reverberate in the cities of the world. During a telephone conversation with Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi.

A statement by the Office of the Prime Minister received the agency {Euphrates News}, a copy of it, said that al – Abadi “received a phone call from US President Donald Trump , who congratulated the outstanding triumphs of the Iraqi forces by editing the city of Mosul, and expressed his respect and appreciation for the courageous leadership of Iraqi fighters, referring to that the great victories of the battle stories reverberate now in the cities of the world. ”

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –    [As the UN is suggesting that Iraq quickly activate the HCL, and  the UN also has some clout over the distribution of funds to go to Iraq, do you believe the HCL will be activated much sooner than later?]   I’m leaning towards *SOON*. This is turning into a perfect situation for Iraq. 

______________________________________________________________

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –    Things are looking up! Mosul has now been officially declared a victory.  HCL should be addressed, officially, in a timely manner…SOON. We can be confident that the IMF and CBI are on good terms. CBI is acting like a real player, and the IMF is giving them an approving nod simply by not saying anything contradictory about them. Regarding oil PPB, and the recent agreement amongst the major OPEC members, Iraq is essentially exempt from the exportation restrictions. This gives Iraq a HUGE advantage when they are ready to “flip the switch”!   Abadi is back in high-gear and on a mission…All in all… GREAT progress right now, and Iraq is in perfect position. Negotiations are beginning between  Baghdad and Kurdistan, which is going to lead to a very fast resolution on the HCL, paving the way for a smooth and *SUDDEN* RV… if we’ve ever been closer to the end of this ride, I can not remember when!  This still isn’t a guaranteed event, but MAN oh MAN is it looking good!

______________________________________________________________

Mike (Dinar Guru) –    …anything is possible and I’m just speculating…But, the IMF has told them at every Article IV consultation to stay pegged, close the spread and remove exchange restrictions. That seems like a tall order to accomplish before the end of the year. So far, they’ve haven’t gotten it done. All we need is the political will to make the change to an open market economy and then things could really pick up.

Mosul residents hopeful after Iraq declares victory over ISIS

Mosul Residents Hopeful After Iraq Declares Victory Over ISIS

MOSUL – Calm prevailed in eastern Mosul on Tuesday (July 11), a day after Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi declared victory over Islamic State (ISIS) in the city.

Streets were busy with cars and residents were trying to resume their lives.

“God willing, the situation will get better now that we got rid of the world’s largest terrorist network and we got rid of its oppression. God willing, we will remove destruction and damage caused by Daesh and normal life will return to the city,” Mishaal Ahmed, an engineer from the city said.

Though a few plumes of smoke were visible on the eastern side of the city, the sound of bombings and bursts of gunfire were absent for the first time since the start of the fighting with Islamic State, more than eight months ago.

Islamic State cornered in Mosul as Iraq prepares victory celebrations

Islamic State fighters were battling to hold on to the last few streets under their control in the Old City of Mosul on Monday, in what looked like a hopeless last stand in their former stronghold.

In fierce fighting, Iraqi army units forced the insurgents back, cornering them in a shrinking rectangle no more than 300 meters (yards) wide and 500 meters long by the Tigris river, according to a map published by the military media office.

Three years to the day since ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi declared the establishment of the so-called caliphate from the same spot.

On February 19, US-backed Iraqi forces launched a wide scale military operation to oust ISIS terrorists from the right bank of Mosul city, their last major stronghold. Before this, the forces managed to free parts of the left bank of the city.

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –   Ramadan is over, and so is Eid-al-Fitr. If you’ve been keeping up with the news…you’ll agree that ISIS is just about over, too. Some are saying they have been crippled to the point that ISIS is barely recognizable as a “force” or “organization” any more. Either way, I think we’re at a point where we don’t even have to take “ISIS” into serious consideration when speculating on a potential increase in IQD value.  We have some big items on the table right now – a vote at the UN, an IMF matter, some Iraqi Parliament meetings that are significant… I think I’d just be clouding the waters if I tried to explain ALL that is on my radar right now, so I’ll suffice it to say this: We are at a potential crossroads right now, and it’s looking GOOD.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –  Its not “my” float scenario, its the truth as documented by the IMF and other experts…Those who are technical and want to learn, see this information and realize how monetary policy works… It’s not some magical event… lol… And those who study, see the case studies etc and read the words direct from IMF docs know the dinar will float when the time and conditions are right...Most hold on to some magical dream they will wake up to riches overnight and therefore refuse to accept reality…Maybe by fall Iraq will pass some laws and have banking insurance in place so they can begin to activate the banking system in Iraq (which ultimately will allow for foreign investment and the float to begin)…

Phillyman (Dinar Guru) –   Alot of news agencies reporting on what we already heard yesterday from Lieutenant General Abdul Gani al-Assad who stated “Mosul [will fall] in very few days, God willing,”.

It would have been nice to add liberation to those celebrations and hopefully those very few days don’t multiply.

Prime Minister Dr. Haider Abadi: Time is very close to declaring victory

Prime Minister Dr. Haider Abadi: Time is very close to declaring victory
==========
Prime Minister Dr. Haider al-Abadi said that the time is very near to announce the final victory over the gangs of the terrorist. “Our heroic forces are fighting and achieving new victories even during the Eid,” he said.
This came during a speech during a tour of a number of charitable and humanitarian institutions concerned with family and social care in the city of Kadhimiya.
“We are trying to liberate people before the earth,” he said.
Dr. Abbadi added that without the blood of martyrs and wounded, these victories would not have been achieved.
During his tour, he distributed gifts to orphaned children, congratulating Eid al-Fitr. He also briefed on ongoing works and future urban projects for humanitarian institutions, praising their role in the service of society and the efforts of supervisors and supervisors.

tman23 (Dinar Guru) –   The test website is interesting indeed…1 dinar equals 1.2 dollars…Be it a test or reality rate to come…We still dont know how they are going to deal with the 3 zero note currency...and there are no lower denoms that have been announced…without lower denoms…and going to 1 – to 1.2 usd…would not be good for us…  The IQD 3 zero notes will remain in the market place for an estimate 2 years and trade along side the new currency… Words from the CBI!   and be accepted for a period of ten years…which means you can exchange the 3 zero notes at the CBI …The fact remains…we dont know how the 3 zero notes we hold will be treated at exchange…

PSA – The DinarUpdates.com website has a very good post on this very subject – complete with research and links. The “test” website should be viewed with great caution.

Abadi: Soon we will announce the complete restoration of Mosul

Prime Minister Haidar al-Abadi said that Saudi officials stressed that the strength of Iraq is in the interest of Riyadh, adding that in a few days we will announce the restoration of Mosul in full.

Abadi said during a press briefing today on his tour to a number of neighboring countries. He pointed out that these countries praised the efforts of Iraq, especially in combating the organization of the preachers and the victories achieved by the security forces, adding that Iraq has returned to its real position among the countries of the world.

When is another question entirely. I started this over 10 years ago and am still waiting for it to just start, let alone finish.  [reference Guru mike’s post 6-20-2017….will the debate continue?]

Mosul on a date with an Iraqi victory

The Secretary General of the Democratic Peace Rally, Mohamed Iqbal Omar al-Sidli, on Sunday praised the important progress achieved by our armed forces in various formations in the squares of Mosul.

Iqbal said in a statement issued by his press office that “the storming of the old city of Mosul, which represents the last stronghold of the terrorist, is a welcome sign of the completion of the liberation of the province completely from the clutches of criminal gangs.” Drawn by the sacrifices and heroic heroism of our fighters. ”

Thus… “There isn’t an economist or currency evaluator on the planet that states Iraq is or will be the strongest currency in the world” is a bit of hyperbole.  The dinars used to purchase foreign currency go directly to the CBI from the banks, since the banks have to get the foreign currency from the CBI in exchange for the dinars. Therefore, no one is saying that it “go[es] back to the banks to begin the cycle all over again.”   [reference Guru mike’s post 6-17-2017….stay tuned for more of this spirited debate]   [post 2 of 2]

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The central bank prepares banks and transfer 25 million per month”   Here is my take on this important development.  It occurred to me that what we are seeing here is a plan to use some of the reserves to reduce the money supply in Iraq. The article makes clear that there is not a corruption problem.  However, they are still putting some limits on the exchange (dinars for foreign currency).  Furthermore…the CBI is making it clear up front that the banks will not be allowed to take advantage of the public who wish to purchase foreign currency.  This means that they will be forced to give the foreign currency at the official rate rather than the market rate.  As word of this gets out there will be more and more people who will want to surrender their dinars at that rate, thus saving many dinars by getting the foreign currency below the market rate.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   This will have two effects:  first, it will put pressure on the market rate to come in line with the official rate.  Why would I buy something with 1300 dinar if I could get it for 1160 dinar by simply converting to dollars first (or Euros, etc.).  This will stabilize the market rate immediately and begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Second, the exchange of foreign currency for dinars will allow the CBI to destroy the dinars turned in (admittedly for a similar draw down on their reserves, however).  The result will put similar pressure on the market rate to begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Of course the exchange will be monitored and limited so that reserves don’t disappear. The CBI has ample reserves in comparison to the current money supply of dinars.  They could afford to give up even 1/3 of their reserves and still have over 100% coverage of their money supply.  …this is a prudent and simple way to draw down the money supply without affecting day to day commerce…because they will be exchanging with “travelers,” people who are doing so not for daily commerce but to go to a foreign country and spend the foreign currency.  This will therefore have no affect on liquidity within the country.   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

NOW MOSUL IS NOT ENOUGH HE WANTS ALL OF IRAQ! I JUST PRAY WE HAVE THE REFORMS BY THE END OF JUNE.]  Abadi never said such a thing – in fact, he’s not in charge of international support and acceptance. The IMF, WB and UN is [are?]. If anyone has anything to say along these lines – it’s not Abadi.  Nowhere has Abadi said he wants all of Iraq before he institutes monetary and currency reforms.  In fact, just last week one article inferred they are already well into the process of monetary reform. These are documented facts.

Iraqi forces take over 90% of western Mosul’s Zanjili, push closer to Old City

Iraqi Federal Police forces took are almost taking over Zanjili district in western Mosul, pushing closer to the Islamic State-held Old City, the service’s commander sid Friday.

Lt. Gen. Shaker Jawdat said his forces were controlling 90 percent of Zanjili district, and were advancing along 10 kilometers in neighboring al-Shifa. Both districts are the last two around the medieval Old City, IS’s last bastion in Mosul from where the group declared in 2014 the establishment of its rule in Iraq and Syria.

She is part of Economic Committee.  In this way the Central Bank is moving forward on reform starting with the currency sale window.  They are moving forward!  I like that reform starts at “the currency window”.  These banks who are “rectifying” their situation are the exact type of institutions that were mentioned and bring the overall score down on that thing that is monetary reform.  Rectification will help to move the wheel forward.

We are Stabilizing IQD Exchange Rate without a space for Speculation: CBI Governor

On Sunday, the Governor of Iraqi Central Bank issued a statement that main objective of CBI is to stabilize the balance between the sale of U.S dollar and demand in the domestic markets. He also added that the sustainability shouldn’t be considered an edge of speculation and huge profits. The Governor of CBI delivered his words in a press interview with Alsumaria News and indicated that the Bank is looking to maintain a balance between the sales of U.S dollar and to keep it stable. He pointed out that the balance of foreign currency has become strong in the past couple of years and there isn’t any kind of space for speculation and huge profits. He added that Iraq has been experiencing some exceptional circumstances and a significant amount of decline in the global oil prices was considered one of the major reasons behind the economic and financial crisis in the country.

Ali Al-Alak said that “the bank seeks to balance the sale of the dollar and maintain it,” noting that “the balance in foreign currency is sufficient as it was in previous years there is no margin and area of speculation and achieve large profits.

“Iraq is going through extraordinary circumstances because of the drop in oil prices significantly, which makes the central bank’s policy to two options either to respond to the dollar to eliminate the margins and this will be at the expense of reducing the reserves of foreign currency or sell the sale and accept the margin of exchange rate rise, “The bank seeks to balance the two goals.”

Abadi: heading towards the economy, development and education

Put the prime minister, Haider al-Abadi, among other points, said that the government will strive to achieve during the coming period, following the military victories achieved, taking economic aspects, developmental, educational, as well as the fight against corruption and activating the law, on top of those points.

Calls for the prime minister, to activate the developmental aspects in Iraq, came after the great military victories in Mosul, those victories described by US President Donald Trump during a telephone conversation with al-Abadi, as “great stories resonate throughout the world.” For the third day of victory announced the tenth of July, which was followed by the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces, rolled cables of international greetings, which praised the courage and the ability of security forces to defeat terrorism, all of which have agreed on the need to assign Iraq’s efforts in post-elimination entirely on “Daesh” a position adopted by the Emir of Kuwait, Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah, who expressed his country’s readiness to host planned for the reconstruction of Iraq and the international conference.

Islandg1211 (Dinar Guru) –    Eight months ago, I posted that we would need to see in this order before the RV…the following:
1) Mosul Liberated, Announcement by Abadi, and a Celebration. Done.
2) Agreement with Kurds, including oil and territory settlement, then finally the HCL will be in position to be passed by the GOI. (Kurds, including Barzani and the oil minister from Baghdad meet today…)   Getting Done.
3) CBI re-educating citizens on the deletion if the three zeroes (we are seeing the payments in country with e-dinars, CBI website upgraded to BIS), and finally
4) Iraq being compliant with Article VIII with the IMF and 5 – UN lifting sanctions and the RV.
The IMF is meeting with Iraq in DC this week. The UN came out a couple of days ago and told Iraq they need to be Article VIII compliant/RV. The lynchpin to the RV, now that Mosul has been declared liberated by Abadi, the Kurds and Baghdad finalizing the HCL agreementBarzani wants independence, and this agreement is going to have to allow for that contingency in order to get him to sign off on it.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

 Islandg1211 (Dinar Guru) –   This was a VERY IMPORTANT meeting today, which I was expecting. I’m expecting to see the CBI starting to re-educate the public on the RV. These CBI articles should be coming out within the next couple of weeks.  I’m still looking towards end of summer for the RV.   Again, the agreement with the Kurds over oil is the lynchpin now, and this article should make everyone very happy along with the UN publicly saying that Iraq needs to RV (via IMF Article VIII compliance).  If an agreement is reached with the Kurds, it’s time to really start with your post-RV plans.  [post 2 of 2]

Trump confirms Abadi spoken to: great victories stories reverberate in the cities of the world

Word For the Day~
Baghdad: Euphrates News} US President Donald Trump said on Tuesday that the Iraqi victories stories reverberate in the cities of the world. During a telephone conversation with Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi.

A statement by the Office of the Prime Minister received the agency {Euphrates News}, a copy of it, said that al – Abadi “received a phone call from US President Donald Trump , who congratulated the outstanding triumphs of the Iraqi forces by editing the city of Mosul, and expressed his respect and appreciation for the courageous leadership of Iraqi fighters, referring to that the great victories of the battle stories reverberate now in the cities of the world. ”

He Abadi, according to the statement, expressed “appreciation for international support provided to Iraq in the face of terrorism Daesh , ” stressing ” the importance of rallying all the factors to accelerate the completion of freeing the rest of the Iraqi territories and an end to the presence of gangs Daesh terrorist.”

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –    [As the UN is suggesting that Iraq quickly activate the HCL, and  the UN also has some clout over the distribution of funds to go to Iraq, do you believe the HCL will be activated much sooner than later?]   I’m leaning towards *SOON*. This is turning into a perfect situation for Iraq. 

______________________________________________________________

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –    Things are looking up! Mosul has now been officially declared a victory.  HCL should be addressed, officially, in a timely manner…SOON. We can be confident that the IMF and CBI are on good terms. CBI is acting like a real player, and the IMF is giving them an approving nod simply by not saying anything contradictory about them. Regarding oil PPB, and the recent agreement amongst the major OPEC members, Iraq is essentially exempt from the exportation restrictions. This gives Iraq a HUGE advantage when they are ready to “flip the switch”!   Abadi is back in high-gear and on a mission…All in all… GREAT progress right now, and Iraq is in perfect position. Negotiations are beginning between  Baghdad and Kurdistan, which is going to lead to a very fast resolution on the HCL, paving the way for a smooth and *SUDDEN* RV… if we’ve ever been closer to the end of this ride, I can not remember when!  This still isn’t a guaranteed event, but MAN oh MAN is it looking good!

______________________________________________________________

Mike (Dinar Guru) –    …anything is possible and I’m just speculating…But, the IMF has told them at every Article IV consultation to stay pegged, close the spread and remove exchange restrictions. That seems like a tall order to accomplish before the end of the year. So far, they’ve haven’t gotten it done. All we need is the political will to make the change to an open market economy and then things could really pick up.

Mosul residents hopeful after Iraq declares victory over ISIS

Mosul Residents Hopeful After Iraq Declares Victory Over ISIS

MOSUL – Calm prevailed in eastern Mosul on Tuesday (July 11), a day after Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi declared victory over Islamic State (ISIS) in the city.

Streets were busy with cars and residents were trying to resume their lives.

“God willing, the situation will get better now that we got rid of the world’s largest terrorist network and we got rid of its oppression. God willing, we will remove destruction and damage caused by Daesh and normal life will return to the city,” Mishaal Ahmed, an engineer from the city said.

Though a few plumes of smoke were visible on the eastern side of the city, the sound of bombings and bursts of gunfire were absent for the first time since the start of the fighting with Islamic State, more than eight months ago.

Islamic State cornered in Mosul as Iraq prepares victory celebrations

Islamic State fighters were battling to hold on to the last few streets under their control in the Old City of Mosul on Monday, in what looked like a hopeless last stand in their former stronghold.

In fierce fighting, Iraqi army units forced the insurgents back, cornering them in a shrinking rectangle no more than 300 meters (yards) wide and 500 meters long by the Tigris river, according to a map published by the military media office.

Iraqi military spokesperson, Brigadier General Yahya Rasool announced on Thursday that ISIS extremists’ reign in the country is over.

Three years to the day since ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi declared the establishment of the so-called caliphate from the same spot.

On February 19, US-backed Iraqi forces launched a wide scale military operation to oust ISIS terrorists from the right bank of Mosul city, their last major stronghold. Before this, the forces managed to free parts of the left bank of the city.

Some are saying they have been crippled to the point that ISIS is barely recognizable as a “force” or “organization” any more. Either way, I think we’re at a point where we don’t even have to take “ISIS” into serious consideration when speculating on a potential increase in IQD value.  We have some big items on the table right now – a vote at the UN, an IMF matter, some Iraqi Parliament meetings that are significant… I think I’d just be clouding the waters if I tried to explain ALL that is on my radar right now, so I’ll suffice it to say this: We are at a potential crossroads right now, and it’s looking GOOD.

Thus… “There isn’t an economist or currency evaluator on the planet that states Iraq is or will be the strongest currency in the world” is a bit of hyperbole.  The dinars used to purchase foreign currency go directly to the CBI from the banks, since the banks have to get the foreign currency from the CBI in exchange for the dinars. Therefore, no one is saying that it “go[es] back to the banks to begin the cycle all over again.”   [reference Guru mike’s post 6-17-2017….stay tuned for more of this spirited debate]   [post 2 of 2]

The article makes clear that there is not a corruption problem.  However, they are still putting some limits on the exchange (dinars for foreign currency).  Furthermore…the CBI is making it clear up front that the banks will not be allowed to take advantage of the public who wish to purchase foreign currency.  This means that they will be forced to give the foreign currency at the official rate rather than the market rate.  As word of this gets out there will be more and more people who will want to surrender their dinars at that rate, thus saving many dinars by getting the foreign currency below the market rate.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   This will have two effects:  first, it will put pressure on the market rate to come in line with the official rate.  Why would I buy something with 1300 dinar if I could get it for 1160 dinar by simply converting to dollars first (or Euros, etc.).  This will stabilize the market rate immediately and begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Second, the exchange of foreign currency for dinars will allow the CBI to destroy the dinars turned in (admittedly for a similar draw down on their reserves, however).  The result will put similar pressure on the market rate to begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Of course the exchange will be monitored and limited so that reserves don’t disappear. The CBI has ample reserves in comparison to the current money supply of dinars.  They could afford to give up even 1/3 of their reserves and still have over 100% coverage of their money supply.  …this is a prudent and simple way to draw down the money supply without affecting day to day commerce…because they will be exchanging with “travelers,” people who are doing so not for daily commerce but to go to a foreign country and spend the foreign currency.  This will therefore have no affect on liquidity within the country.   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

NOW MOSUL IS NOT ENOUGH HE WANTS ALL OF IRAQ! I JUST PRAY WE HAVE THE REFORMS BY THE END OF JUNE.]  Abadi never said such a thing – in fact, he’s not in charge of international support and acceptance. The IMF, WB and UN is [are?]. If anyone has anything to say along these lines – it’s not Abadi.  Nowhere has Abadi said he wants all of Iraq before he institutes monetary and currency reforms.  In fact, just last week one article inferred they are already well into the process of monetary reform. These are documented facts.

Iraqi forces take over 90% of western Mosul’s Zanjili, push closer to Old City

Iraqi Federal Police forces took are almost taking over Zanjili district in western Mosul, pushing closer to the Islamic State-held Old City, the service’s commander sid Friday.

Lt. Gen. Shaker Jawdat said his forces were controlling 90 percent of Zanjili district, and were advancing along 10 kilometers in neighboring al-Shifa.

______________________________________________________________

MadDScout (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The parliamentary economy supports the recent central bank measures to regulate the sale window of the currency”  Najib is saying the “economy is heating up”, and that the Parliament Economic Committee is in support of the strides the CBI has taken to organize and educate those banks taking part in the foreign currency sale, and this conducted in cooperation with the IMF…   Najib confirmed that there were banks who had to rectify their situations, in order to stay a part of the currency sale. She is part of Economic Committee.  In this way the Central Bank is moving forward on reform starting with the currency sale window.  They are moving forward!  I like that reform starts at “the currency window”.  These banks who are “rectifying” their situation are the exact type of institutions that were mentioned and bring the overall score down on that thing that is monetary reform.  Rectification will help to move the wheel forward.

This struggle will come to an end. At some point they will do something with this currency. When that happens – you are positioned to enjoy the benefit…and that is probably the most encouraging you have heard me in a while.

Abadi: heading towards the economy, development and education

Put the prime minister, Haider al-Abadi, among other points, said that the government will strive to achieve during the coming period, following the military victories achieved, taking economic aspects, developmental, educational, as well as the fight against corruption and activating the law, on top of those points.

Calls for the prime minister, to activate the developmental aspects in Iraq, came after the great military victories in Mosul, those victories described by US President Donald Trump during a telephone conversation with al-Abadi, as “great stories resonate throughout the world.” For the third day of victory announced the tenth of July, which was followed by the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces, rolled cables of international greetings, which praised the courage and the ability of security forces to defeat terrorism, all of which have agreed on the need to assign Iraq’s efforts in post-elimination entirely on “Daesh” a position adopted by the Emir of Kuwait, Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah, who expressed his country’s readiness to host planned for the reconstruction of Iraq and the international conference. Ebadi said, in a speech opening the Cabinet meeting on Wednesday:

Islandg1211 (Dinar Guru) –    Eight months ago, I posted that we would need to see in this order before the RV…the following:
1) Mosul Liberated, Announcement by Abadi, and a Celebration. Done.
2) Agreement with Kurds, including oil and territory settlement, then finally the HCL will be in position to be passed by the GOI. (Kurds, including Barzani and the oil minister from Baghdad meet today…)   Getting Done.
3) CBI re-educating citizens on the deletion if the three zeroes (we are seeing the payments in country with e-dinars, CBI website upgraded to BIS), and finally
4) Iraq being compliant with Article VIII with the IMF and 5 – UN lifting sanctions and the RV.
The IMF is meeting with Iraq in DC this week. The UN came out a couple of days ago and told Iraq they need to be Article VIII compliant/RV. The lynchpin to the RV, now that Mosul has been declared liberated by Abadi, the Kurds and Baghdad finalizing the HCL agreementBarzani wants independence, and this agreement is going to have to allow for that contingency in order to get him to sign off on it.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

_____________________________________________________________

 Islandg1211 (Dinar Guru) –   This was a VERY IMPORTANT meeting today, which I was expecting. I’m expecting to see the CBI starting to re-educate the public on the RV. These CBI articles should be coming out within the next couple of weeks.  I’m still looking towards end of summer for the RV.   Again, the agreement with the Kurds over oil is the lynchpin now, and this article should make everyone very happy along with the UN publicly saying that Iraq needs to RV (via IMF Article VIII compliance).  If an agreement is reached with the Kurds, it’s time to really start with your post-RV plans.  [post 2 of 2]

Delta (Dinar Guru) –   …the CBI has to move forward.  The media … just like we predicted … as soon as they get Mosul … speed of light.  Right away the media has been jumping the gun on talking about the economy, etc. ..the CBI…we’ve known since January they been wanting to pull the trigger.  The next 24-48 hours is going to be very interesting.

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) –   We found something – a press release from the West – congratulations from President Trump to Abadi – all he says is congratulations about Mosul.  Then we have the same article from an Arabic site which shows additional information – they also talked about congratulations on the reforms.  Donald Trump called Abadi…IMO…they were talking about the monetary reform. …They’ve got security and stability man!

Trump confirms Abadi spoken to: great victories stories reverberate in the cities of the world

Word For the Day~
Baghdad: Euphrates News} US President Donald Trump said on Tuesday that the Iraqi victories stories reverberate in the cities of the world. During a telephone conversation with Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi.

A statement by the Office of the Prime Minister received the agency {Euphrates News}, a copy of it, said that al – Abadi “received a phone call from US President Donald Trump , who congratulated the outstanding triumphs of the Iraqi forces by editing the city of Mosul, and expressed his respect and appreciation for the courageous leadership of Iraqi fighters, referring to that the great victories of the battle stories reverberate now in the cities of the world. ”

He Abadi, according to the statement, expressed “appreciation for international support provided to Iraq in the face of terrorism Daesh , ” stressing ” the importance of rallying all the factors to accelerate the completion of freeing the rest of the Iraqi territories and an end to the presence of gangs Daesh terrorist.”

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –    [As the UN is suggesting that Iraq quickly activate the HCL, and  the UN also has some clout over the distribution of funds to go to Iraq, do you believe the HCL will be activated much sooner than later?]   I’m leaning towards *SOON*. This is turning into a perfect situation for Iraq. 

______________________________________________________________

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –    Things are looking up! Mosul has now been officially declared a victory.  HCL should be addressed, officially, in a timely manner…SOON. We can be confident that the IMF and CBI are on good terms. CBI is acting like a real player, and the IMF is giving them an approving nod simply by not saying anything contradictory about them. Regarding oil PPB, and the recent agreement amongst the major OPEC members, Iraq is essentially exempt from the exportation restrictions. This gives Iraq a HUGE advantage when they are ready to “flip the switch”!   Abadi is back in high-gear and on a mission…All in all… GREAT progress right now, and Iraq is in perfect position. Negotiations are beginning between  Baghdad and Kurdistan, which is going to lead to a very fast resolution on the HCL, paving the way for a smooth and *SUDDEN* RV… if we’ve ever been closer to the end of this ride, I can not remember when!  This still isn’t a guaranteed event, but MAN oh MAN is it looking good!

______________________________________________________________

Mike (Dinar Guru) –    …anything is possible and I’m just speculating…But, the IMF has told them at every Article IV consultation to stay pegged, close the spread and remove exchange restrictions. That seems like a tall order to accomplish before the end of the year. So far, they’ve haven’t gotten it done. All we need is the political will to make the change to an open market economy and then things could really pick up.

Mosul residents hopeful after Iraq declares victory over ISIS

Mosul Residents Hopeful After Iraq Declares Victory Over ISIS

MOSUL – Calm prevailed in eastern Mosul on Tuesday (July 11), a day after Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi declared victory over Islamic State (ISIS) in the city.

Streets were busy with cars and residents were trying to resume their lives.

“God willing, the situation will get better now that we got rid of the world’s largest terrorist network and we got rid of its oppression. God willing, we will remove destruction and damage caused by Daesh and normal life will return to the city,” Mishaal Ahmed, an engineer from the city said.

Though a few plumes of smoke were visible on the eastern side of the city, the sound of bombings and bursts of gunfire were absent for the first time since the start of the fighting with Islamic State, more than eight months ago.

Islamic State cornered in Mosul as Iraq prepares victory celebrations

Islamic State fighters were battling to hold on to the last few streets under their control in the Old City of Mosul on Monday, in what looked like a hopeless last stand in their former stronghold.

In fierce fighting, Iraqi army units forced the insurgents back, cornering them in a shrinking rectangle no more than 300 meters (yards) wide and 500 meters long by the Tigris river, according to a map published by the military media office.

If that’s what you are asking, then yes – it is possible.  I don’t think it’s likely,  but it is possible.

Iraqi military spokesperson, Brigadier General Yahya Rasool announced on Thursday that ISIS extremists’ reign in the country is over.

Three years to the day since ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi declared the establishment of the so-called caliphate from the same spot.

On February 19, US-backed Iraqi forces launched a wide scale military operation to oust ISIS terrorists from the right bank of Mosul city, their last major stronghold. Before this, the forces managed to free parts of the left bank of the city.

BGG (Dinar Guru) –  …This notice was from a June 26th [United Nations] meeting and only lasted 3 minutes and they adopted the resolution…the gist of it was they were gonna retain the funds contained therein until June 30th.  At which time all remaining funds will be transferred to the government of Iraq.  This unanimously adopted resolution under chapter VII of the United Nations Charter was adopted fully completely and without reservation…they had extended this deadline.  This was supposed to have happened a while back.  Something that was supposed to have happened didn’t happen and they pushed it back a little bit.  They said (and I paraphrase) you should not take this as a bad thing this is a good thing…that we [the UN] supports Iraq in internationalization in every which way or form…  [Part 1 of 2]

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –   Ramadan is over, and so is Eid-al-Fitr. If you’ve been keeping up with the news…you’ll agree that ISIS is just about over, too. Some are saying they have been crippled to the point that ISIS is barely recognizable as a “force” or “organization” any more. Either way, I think we’re at a point where we don’t even have to take “ISIS” into serious consideration when speculating on a potential increase in IQD value.  We have some big items on the table right now – a vote at the UN, an IMF matter, some Iraqi Parliament meetings that are significant… I think I’d just be clouding the waters if I tried to explain ALL that is on my radar right now, so I’ll suffice it to say this: We are at a potential crossroads right now, and it’s looking GOOD.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –  Its not “my” float scenario, its the truth as documented by the IMF and other experts…Those who are technical and want to learn, see this information and realize how monetary policy works… It’s not some magical event… lol… And those who study, see the case studies etc and read the words direct from IMF docs know the dinar will float when the time and conditions are right...Most hold on to some magical dream they will wake up to riches overnight and therefore refuse to accept reality…Maybe by fall Iraq will pass some laws and have banking insurance in place so they can begin to activate the banking system in Iraq (which ultimately will allow for foreign investment and the float to begin)…

It consists of the Iraqi payments system from the following systems:

• The total settlement of real – time system Real : Time Grosse Settlement (RTGS )

It would have been nice to add liberation to those celebrations and hopefully those very few days don’t multiply.

Prime Minister Dr. Haider Abadi: Time is very close to declaring victory

Prime Minister Dr. Haider Abadi: Time is very close to declaring victory
==========
Prime Minister Dr. Haider al-Abadi said that the time is very near to announce the final victory over the gangs of the terrorist. “Our heroic forces are fighting and achieving new victories even during the Eid,” he said.
This came during a speech during a tour of a number of charitable and humanitarian institutions concerned with family and social care in the city of Kadhimiya.
“We are trying to liberate people before the earth,” he said.
Dr. Abbadi added that without the blood of martyrs and wounded, these victories would not have been achieved.
During his tour, he distributed gifts to orphaned children, congratulating Eid al-Fitr. He also briefed on ongoing works and future urban projects for humanitarian institutions, praising their role in the service of society and the efforts of supervisors and supervisors.

tman23 (Dinar Guru) –   The test website is interesting indeed…1 dinar equals 1.2 dollars…Be it a test or reality rate to come…We still dont know how they are going to deal with the 3 zero note currency...and there are no lower denoms that have been announced…without lower denoms…and going to 1 – to 1.2 usd…would not be good for us…  The IQD 3 zero notes will remain in the market place for an estimate 2 years and trade along side the new currency… Words from the CBI!   and be accepted for a period of ten years…which means you can exchange the 3 zero notes at the CBI …The fact remains…we dont know how the 3 zero notes we hold will be treated at exchange…

PSA – The DinarUpdates.com website has a very good post on this very subject – complete with research and links. The “test” website should be viewed with great caution.

When is another question entirely. I started this over 10 years ago and am still waiting for it to just start, let alone finish.  [reference Guru mike’s post 6-20-2017….will the debate continue?]

Thus… “There isn’t an economist or currency evaluator on the planet that states Iraq is or will be the strongest currency in the world” is a bit of hyperbole.  The dinars used to purchase foreign currency go directly to the CBI from the banks, since the banks have to get the foreign currency from the CBI in exchange for the dinars. Therefore, no one is saying that it “go[es] back to the banks to begin the cycle all over again.”   [reference Guru mike’s post 6-17-2017….stay tuned for more of this spirited debate]   [post 2 of 2]

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The central bank prepares banks and transfer 25 million per month”   Here is my take on this important development.  It occurred to me that what we are seeing here is a plan to use some of the reserves to reduce the money supply in Iraq. The article makes clear that there is not a corruption problem.  However, they are still putting some limits on the exchange (dinars for foreign currency).  Furthermore…the CBI is making it clear up front that the banks will not be allowed to take advantage of the public who wish to purchase foreign currency.  This means that they will be forced to give the foreign currency at the official rate rather than the market rate.  As word of this gets out there will be more and more people who will want to surrender their dinars at that rate, thus saving many dinars by getting the foreign currency below the market rate.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   This will have two effects:  first, it will put pressure on the market rate to come in line with the official rate.  Why would I buy something with 1300 dinar if I could get it for 1160 dinar by simply converting to dollars first (or Euros, etc.).  This will stabilize the market rate immediately and begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Second, the exchange of foreign currency for dinars will allow the CBI to destroy the dinars turned in (admittedly for a similar draw down on their reserves, however).  The result will put similar pressure on the market rate to begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Of course the exchange will be monitored and limited so that reserves don’t disappear. The CBI has ample reserves in comparison to the current money supply of dinars.  They could afford to give up even 1/3 of their reserves and still have over 100% coverage of their money supply.  …this is a prudent and simple way to draw down the money supply without affecting day to day commerce…because they will be exchanging with “travelers,” people who are doing so not for daily commerce but to go to a foreign country and spend the foreign currency.  This will therefore have no affect on liquidity within the country.   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

NOW MOSUL IS NOT ENOUGH HE WANTS ALL OF IRAQ! I JUST PRAY WE HAVE THE REFORMS BY THE END OF JUNE.]  Abadi never said such a thing – in fact, he’s not in charge of international support and acceptance. The IMF, WB and UN is [are?]. If anyone has anything to say along these lines – it’s not Abadi.  Nowhere has Abadi said he wants all of Iraq before he institutes monetary and currency reforms.  In fact, just last week one article inferred they are already well into the process of monetary reform. These are documented facts.

She is part of Economic Committee.  In this way the Central Bank is moving forward on reform starting with the currency sale window.  They are moving forward!  I like that reform starts at “the currency window”.  These banks who are “rectifying” their situation are the exact type of institutions that were mentioned and bring the overall score down on that thing that is monetary reform.  Rectification will help to move the wheel forward.

Abadi: heading towards the economy, development and education

Put the prime minister, Haider al-Abadi, among other points, said that the government will strive to achieve during the coming period, following the military victories achieved, taking economic aspects, developmental, educational, as well as the fight against corruption and activating the law, on top of those points.

Calls for the prime minister, to activate the developmental aspects in Iraq, came after the great military victories in Mosul, those victories described by US President Donald Trump during a telephone conversation with al-Abadi, as “great stories resonate throughout the world.” For the third day of victory announced the tenth of July, which was followed by the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces, rolled cables of international greetings, which praised the courage and the ability of security forces to defeat terrorism, all of which have agreed on the need to assign Iraq’s efforts in post-elimination entirely on “Daesh” a position adopted by the Emir of Kuwait, Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah, who expressed his country’s readiness to host planned for the reconstruction of Iraq and the international conference.

Islandg1211 (Dinar Guru) –    Eight months ago, I posted that we would need to see in this order before the RV…the following:
1) Mosul Liberated, Announcement by Abadi, and a Celebration. Done.
2) Agreement with Kurds, including oil and territory settlement, then finally the HCL will be in position to be passed by the GOI. (Kurds, including Barzani and the oil minister from Baghdad meet today…)   Getting Done.
3) CBI re-educating citizens on the deletion if the three zeroes (we are seeing the payments in country with e-dinars, CBI website upgraded to BIS), and finally
4) Iraq being compliant with Article VIII with the IMF and 5 – UN lifting sanctions and the RV.
The IMF is meeting with Iraq in DC this week. The UN came out a couple of days ago and told Iraq they need to be Article VIII compliant/RV. The lynchpin to the RV, now that Mosul has been declared liberated by Abadi, the Kurds and Baghdad finalizing the HCL agreementBarzani wants independence, and this agreement is going to have to allow for that contingency in order to get him to sign off on it.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –    [As the UN is suggesting that Iraq quickly activate the HCL, and  the UN also has some clout over the distribution of funds to go to Iraq, do you believe the HCL will be activated much sooner than later?]   I’m leaning towards *SOON*. This is turning into a perfect situation for Iraq. 

______________________________________________________________

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –    Things are looking up! Mosul has now been officially declared a victory.  HCL should be addressed, officially, in a timely manner…SOON. We can be confident that the IMF and CBI are on good terms. CBI is acting like a real player, and the IMF is giving them an approving nod simply by not saying anything contradictory about them. Regarding oil PPB, and the recent agreement amongst the major OPEC members, Iraq is essentially exempt from the exportation restrictions. This gives Iraq a HUGE advantage when they are ready to “flip the switch”!   Abadi is back in high-gear and on a mission…All in all… GREAT progress right now, and Iraq is in perfect position. Negotiations are beginning between  Baghdad and Kurdistan, which is going to lead to a very fast resolution on the HCL, paving the way for a smooth and *SUDDEN* RV… if we’ve ever been closer to the end of this ride, I can not remember when!  This still isn’t a guaranteed event, but MAN oh MAN is it looking good!

______________________________________________________________

Mike (Dinar Guru) –    …anything is possible and I’m just speculating…But, the IMF has told them at every Article IV consultation to stay pegged, close the spread and remove exchange restrictions. That seems like a tall order to accomplish before the end of the year. So far, they’ve haven’t gotten it done. All we need is the political will to make the change to an open market economy and then things could really pick up.

Mosul Residents Hopeful After Iraq Declares Victory Over ISIS

MOSUL – Calm prevailed in eastern Mosul on Tuesday (July 11), a day after Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi declared victory over Islamic State (ISIS) in the city.

Streets were busy with cars and residents were trying to resume their lives.

“God willing, the situation will get better now that we got rid of the world’s largest terrorist network and we got rid of its oppression. God willing, we will remove destruction and damage caused by Daesh and normal life will return to the city,” Mishaal Ahmed, an engineer from the city said.

Though a few plumes of smoke were visible on the eastern side of the city, the sound of bombings and bursts of gunfire were absent for the first time since the start of the fighting with Islamic State, more than eight months ago.

Islamic State cornered in Mosul as Iraq prepares victory celebrations

Islamic State fighters were battling to hold on to the last few streets under their control in the Old City of Mosul on Monday, in what looked like a hopeless last stand in their former stronghold.

In fierce fighting, Iraqi army units forced the insurgents back, cornering them in a shrinking rectangle no more than 300 meters (yards) wide and 500 meters long by the Tigris river, according to a map published by the military media office.

Mosul has become ISIS-free, say coalition forces

Iraqi military spokesperson, Brigadier General Yahya Rasool announced on Thursday that ISIS extremists’ reign in the country is over.

“Their fictitious state has fallen,” Rasool added.

Three years to the day since ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi declared the establishment of the so-called caliphate from the same spot.

On February 19, US-backed Iraqi forces launched a wide scale military operation to oust ISIS terrorists from the right bank of Mosul city, their last major stronghold. Before this, the forces managed to free parts of the left bank of the city.

Some are saying they have been crippled to the point that ISIS is barely recognizable as a “force” or “organization” any more. Either way, I think we’re at a point where we don’t even have to take “ISIS” into serious consideration when speculating on a potential increase in IQD value.  We have some big items on the table right now – a vote at the UN, an IMF matter, some Iraqi Parliament meetings that are significant… I think I’d just be clouding the waters if I tried to explain ALL that is on my radar right now, so I’ll suffice it to say this: We are at a potential crossroads right now, and it’s looking GOOD.

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   According to the CBI website the Gross Foreign Assets at the CBI as of May 25, 2017 totaled $53.4 billion.  Saleh has stated more than once that the dinar is or will be one of the strongest currencies in the world and a reserve currency:  “Saleh said the Agency (news) said on Saturday: The dinar today has become a strong and like a hard currency through the Bank’s policy Central control of the cash raised in the local market.  He explained:  that the dinar covered in hard currency at a rate of more than (100%), and this rare condition, and has a cash reserve large hard currency than for (60) billion dollars retained by the face of difficult circumstances that may occur in the country, giving the power of the dinar against foreign currency.  This statement was made in 2012 but he has reiterated it several times.     [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   …In February of 2014 he [CBI’s Saleh] said this:  He said the appearance of Mohammed Saleh told the “time”, that “the Iraqi dinar is protected range is strong, and the cover of foreign currency is very high unless they are used for the purposes of reserves dedicated to the support of the Iraqi dinar.”  Admittedly he is looking to the future when he makes these statements.  However, he is a member of the planet and an economist. Thus… “There isn’t an economist or currency evaluator on the planet that states Iraq is or will be the strongest currency in the world” is a bit of hyperbole.  The dinars used to purchase foreign currency go directly to the CBI from the banks, since the banks have to get the foreign currency from the CBI in exchange for the dinars. Therefore, no one is saying that it “go[es] back to the banks to begin the cycle all over again.”   [reference Guru mike’s post 6-17-2017….stay tuned for more of this spirited debate]   [post 2 of 2]

Exclusive: Parts freed so far in Mosul explained on map 

An updated version of Mosul’s map showing the latest developments in the battle to oust ISIS from occupied districts in the city’s right bank has been obtained by The Baghdad Post on Wednesday.

On the map, the spots marked in green represent the previously ISIS-held areas that have been liberated.

As the map shows, the white spots represent the parts of the war-torn city where ISIS is still controlling.

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The central bank prepares banks and transfer 25 million per month”   Here is my take on this important development.  It occurred to me that what we are seeing here is a plan to use some of the reserves to reduce the money supply in Iraq. The article makes clear that there is not a corruption problem.  However, they are still putting some limits on the exchange (dinars for foreign currency).  Furthermore…the CBI is making it clear up front that the banks will not be allowed to take advantage of the public who wish to purchase foreign currency.  This means that they will be forced to give the foreign currency at the official rate rather than the market rate.  As word of this gets out there will be more and more people who will want to surrender their dinars at that rate, thus saving many dinars by getting the foreign currency below the market rate.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   This will have two effects:  first, it will put pressure on the market rate to come in line with the official rate.  Why would I buy something with 1300 dinar if I could get it for 1160 dinar by simply converting to dollars first (or Euros, etc.).  This will stabilize the market rate immediately and begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Second, the exchange of foreign currency for dinars will allow the CBI to destroy the dinars turned in (admittedly for a similar draw down on their reserves, however).  The result will put similar pressure on the market rate to begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Of course the exchange will be monitored and limited so that reserves don’t disappear. The CBI has ample reserves in comparison to the current money supply of dinars.  They could afford to give up even 1/3 of their reserves and still have over 100% coverage of their money supply.  …this is a prudent and simple way to draw down the money supply without affecting day to day commerce…because they will be exchanging with “travelers,” people who are doing so not for daily commerce but to go to a foreign country and spend the foreign currency.  This will therefore have no affect on liquidity within the country.   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

NOW MOSUL IS NOT ENOUGH HE WANTS ALL OF IRAQ! I JUST PRAY WE HAVE THE REFORMS BY THE END OF JUNE.]  Abadi never said such a thing – in fact, he’s not in charge of international support and acceptance. The IMF, WB and UN is [are?]. If anyone has anything to say along these lines – it’s not Abadi.  Nowhere has Abadi said he wants all of Iraq before he institutes monetary and currency reforms.  In fact, just last week one article inferred they are already well into the process of monetary reform. These are documented facts.

Iraqi forces take over 90% of western Mosul’s Zanjili, push closer to Old City

Iraqi Federal Police forces took are almost taking over Zanjili district in western Mosul, pushing closer to the Islamic State-held Old City, the service’s commander sid Friday.

Lt. Gen. Shaker Jawdat said his forces were controlling 90 percent of Zanjili district, and were advancing along 10 kilometers in neighboring al-Shifa.

MadDScout (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The parliamentary economy supports the recent central bank measures to regulate the sale window of the currency”  Najib is saying the “economy is heating up”, and that the Parliament Economic Committee is in support of the strides the CBI has taken to organize and educate those banks taking part in the foreign currency sale, and this conducted in cooperation with the IMF…   Najib confirmed that there were banks who had to rectify their situations, in order to stay a part of the currency sale. She is part of Economic Committee.  In this way the Central Bank is moving forward on reform starting with the currency sale window.  They are moving forward!  I like that reform starts at “the currency window”.  These banks who are “rectifying” their situation are the exact type of institutions that were mentioned and bring the overall score down on that thing that is monetary reform.  Rectification will help to move the wheel forward.

Abadi: heading towards the economy, development and education

Put the prime minister, Haider al-Abadi, among other points, said that the government will strive to achieve during the coming period, following the military victories achieved, taking economic aspects, developmental, educational, as well as the fight against corruption and activating the law, on top of those points.

Calls for the prime minister, to activate the developmental aspects in Iraq, came after the great military victories in Mosul, those victories described by US President Donald Trump during a telephone conversation with al-Abadi, as “great stories resonate throughout the world.” For the third day of victory announced the tenth of July, which was followed by the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces, rolled cables of international greetings, which praised the courage and the ability of security forces to defeat terrorism, all of which have agreed on the need to assign Iraq’s efforts in post-elimination entirely on “Daesh” a position adopted by the Emir of Kuwait, Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah, who expressed his country’s readiness to host planned for the reconstruction of Iraq and the international conference. Ebadi said, in a speech opening the Cabinet meeting on Wednesday:

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) –   We found something – a press release from the West – congratulations from President Trump to Abadi – all he says is congratulations about Mosul.  Then we have the same article from an Arabic site which shows additional information – they also talked about congratulations on the reforms.  Donald Trump called Abadi…IMO…they were talking about the monetary reform. …They’ve got security and stability man!

Trump confirms Abadi spoken to: great victories stories reverberate in the cities of the world

Word For the Day~

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –    [As the UN is suggesting that Iraq quickly activate the HCL, and  the UN also has some clout over the distribution of funds to go to Iraq, do you believe the HCL will be activated much sooner than later?]   I’m leaning towards *SOON*. This is turning into a perfect situation for Iraq. 

______________________________________________________________

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –    Things are looking up! Mosul has now been officially declared a victory.  HCL should be addressed, officially, in a timely manner…SOON. We can be confident that the IMF and CBI are on good terms. CBI is acting like a real player, and the IMF is giving them an approving nod simply by not saying anything contradictory about them. Regarding oil PPB, and the recent agreement amongst the major OPEC members, Iraq is essentially exempt from the exportation restrictions. This gives Iraq a HUGE advantage when they are ready to “flip the switch”!   Abadi is back in high-gear and on a mission…All in all… GREAT progress right now, and Iraq is in perfect position. Negotiations are beginning between  Baghdad and Kurdistan, which is going to lead to a very fast resolution on the HCL, paving the way for a smooth and *SUDDEN* RV… if we’ve ever been closer to the end of this ride, I can not remember when!  This still isn’t a guaranteed event, but MAN oh MAN is it looking good!

______________________________________________________________

Mike (Dinar Guru) –    …anything is possible and I’m just speculating…But, the IMF has told them at every Article IV consultation to stay pegged, close the spread and remove exchange restrictions. That seems like a tall order to accomplish before the end of the year. So far, they’ve haven’t gotten it done. All we need is the political will to make the change to an open market economy and then things could really pick up.

Mosul residents hopeful after Iraq declares victory over ISIS

Mosul Residents Hopeful After Iraq Declares Victory Over ISIS

MOSUL – Calm prevailed in eastern Mosul on Tuesday (July 11), a day after Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi declared victory over Islamic State (ISIS) in the city.

Streets were busy with cars and residents were trying to resume their lives.

“God willing, the situation will get better now that we got rid of the world’s largest terrorist network and we got rid of its oppression. God willing, we will remove destruction and damage caused by Daesh and normal life will return to the city,” Mishaal Ahmed, an engineer from the city said.

Though a few plumes of smoke were visible on the eastern side of the city, the sound of bombings and bursts of gunfire were absent for the first time since the start of the fighting with Islamic State, more than eight months ago.

Islamic State cornered in Mosul as Iraq prepares victory celebrations

Islamic State fighters were battling to hold on to the last few streets under their control in the Old City of Mosul on Monday, in what looked like a hopeless last stand in their former stronghold.

In fierce fighting, Iraqi army units forced the insurgents back, cornering them in a shrinking rectangle no more than 300 meters (yards) wide and 500 meters long by the Tigris river, according to a map published by the military media office.

 Phillyman (Dinar Guru) –   Abadi has certainly declared victory but I get the impression that what we are looking for will take place in Mosul in a very open and public setting.  Tomorrow is their day of worship and I read that Sadr’s protestors are standing down and not protesting. I’m sure we would all love to see a major public declaration covered widely by news media tomorrow.  Whatever the case I’m sure today will be looked back on as a historical turn in the future of Iraq, certainly another day to be added to their list of holidays that are celebrated.

BGG (Dinar Guru) –  …This notice was from a June 26th [United Nations] meeting and only lasted 3 minutes and they adopted the resolution…the gist of it was they were gonna retain the funds contained therein until June 30th.  At which time all remaining funds will be transferred to the government of Iraq.  This unanimously adopted resolution under chapter VII of the United Nations Charter was adopted fully completely and without reservation…they had extended this deadline.  This was supposed to have happened a while back.  Something that was supposed to have happened didn’t happen and they pushed it back a little bit.  They said (and I paraphrase) you should not take this as a bad thing this is a good thing…that we [the UN] supports Iraq in internationalization in every which way or form…  [Part 1 of 2]

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –   Ramadan is over, and so is Eid-al-Fitr. If you’ve been keeping up with the news…you’ll agree that ISIS is just about over, too. Some are saying they have been crippled to the point that ISIS is barely recognizable as a “force” or “organization” any more. Either way, I think we’re at a point where we don’t even have to take “ISIS” into serious consideration when speculating on a potential increase in IQD value.  We have some big items on the table right now – a vote at the UN, an IMF matter, some Iraqi Parliament meetings that are significant… I think I’d just be clouding the waters if I tried to explain ALL that is on my radar right now, so I’ll suffice it to say this: We are at a potential crossroads right now, and it’s looking GOOD.

Prime Minister Dr. Haider Abadi: Time is very close to declaring victory
==========
Prime Minister Dr. Haider al-Abadi said that the time is very near to announce the final victory over the gangs of the terrorist. “Our heroic forces are fighting and achieving new victories even during the Eid,” he said.
This came during a speech during a tour of a number of charitable and humanitarian institutions concerned with family and social care in the city of Kadhimiya.
“We are trying to liberate people before the earth,” he said.
Dr. Abbadi added that without the blood of martyrs and wounded, these victories would not have been achieved.
During his tour, he distributed gifts to orphaned children, congratulating Eid al-Fitr. He also briefed on ongoing works and future urban projects for humanitarian institutions, praising their role in the service of society and the efforts of supervisors and supervisors.

tman23 (Dinar Guru) –   The test website is interesting indeed…1 dinar equals 1.2 dollars…Be it a test or reality rate to come…We still dont know how they are going to deal with the 3 zero note currency...and there are no lower denoms that have been announced…without lower denoms…and going to 1 – to 1.2 usd…would not be good for us…  The IQD 3 zero notes will remain in the market place for an estimate 2 years and trade along side the new currency… Words from the CBI!   and be accepted for a period of ten years…which means you can exchange the 3 zero notes at the CBI …The fact remains…we dont know how the 3 zero notes we hold will be treated at exchange…

PSA – The DinarUpdates.com website has a very good post on this very subject – complete with research and links. The “test” website should be viewed with great caution.

When is another question entirely. I started this over 10 years ago and am still waiting for it to just start, let alone finish.  [reference Guru mike’s post 6-20-2017….will the debate continue?]

Thus… “There isn’t an economist or currency evaluator on the planet that states Iraq is or will be the strongest currency in the world” is a bit of hyperbole.  The dinars used to purchase foreign currency go directly to the CBI from the banks, since the banks have to get the foreign currency from the CBI in exchange for the dinars. Therefore, no one is saying that it “go[es] back to the banks to begin the cycle all over again.”   [reference Guru mike’s post 6-17-2017….stay tuned for more of this spirited debate]   [post 2 of 2]

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The central bank prepares banks and transfer 25 million per month”   Here is my take on this important development.  It occurred to me that what we are seeing here is a plan to use some of the reserves to reduce the money supply in Iraq. The article makes clear that there is not a corruption problem.  However, they are still putting some limits on the exchange (dinars for foreign currency).  Furthermore…the CBI is making it clear up front that the banks will not be allowed to take advantage of the public who wish to purchase foreign currency.  This means that they will be forced to give the foreign currency at the official rate rather than the market rate.  As word of this gets out there will be more and more people who will want to surrender their dinars at that rate, thus saving many dinars by getting the foreign currency below the market rate.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   This will have two effects:  first, it will put pressure on the market rate to come in line with the official rate.  Why would I buy something with 1300 dinar if I could get it for 1160 dinar by simply converting to dollars first (or Euros, etc.).  This will stabilize the market rate immediately and begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Second, the exchange of foreign currency for dinars will allow the CBI to destroy the dinars turned in (admittedly for a similar draw down on their reserves, however).  The result will put similar pressure on the market rate to begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Of course the exchange will be monitored and limited so that reserves don’t disappear. The CBI has ample reserves in comparison to the current money supply of dinars.  They could afford to give up even 1/3 of their reserves and still have over 100% coverage of their money supply.  …this is a prudent and simple way to draw down the money supply without affecting day to day commerce…because they will be exchanging with “travelers,” people who are doing so not for daily commerce but to go to a foreign country and spend the foreign currency.  This will therefore have no affect on liquidity within the country.   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

NOW MOSUL IS NOT ENOUGH HE WANTS ALL OF IRAQ! I JUST PRAY WE HAVE THE REFORMS BY THE END OF JUNE.]  Abadi never said such a thing – in fact, he’s not in charge of international support and acceptance. The IMF, WB and UN is [are?]. If anyone has anything to say along these lines – it’s not Abadi.  Nowhere has Abadi said he wants all of Iraq before he institutes monetary and currency reforms.  In fact, just last week one article inferred they are already well into the process of monetary reform. These are documented facts.

She is part of Economic Committee.  In this way the Central Bank is moving forward on reform starting with the currency sale window.  They are moving forward!  I like that reform starts at “the currency window”.  These banks who are “rectifying” their situation are the exact type of institutions that were mentioned and bring the overall score down on that thing that is monetary reform.  Rectification will help to move the wheel forward.

Put the prime minister, Haider al-Abadi, among other points, said that the government will strive to achieve during the coming period, following the military victories achieved, taking economic aspects, developmental, educational, as well as the fight against corruption and activating the law, on top of those points.

Calls for the prime minister, to activate the developmental aspects in Iraq, came after the great military victories in Mosul, those victories described by US President Donald Trump during a telephone conversation with al-Abadi, as “great stories resonate throughout the world.” For the third day of victory announced the tenth of July, which was followed by the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces, rolled cables of international greetings, which praised the courage and the ability of security forces to defeat terrorism, all of which have agreed on the need to assign Iraq’s efforts in post-elimination entirely on “Daesh” a position adopted by the Emir of Kuwait, Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah, who expressed his country’s readiness to host planned for the reconstruction of Iraq and the international conference.

CBI is acting like a real player, and the IMF is giving them an approving nod simply by not saying anything contradictory about them. Regarding oil PPB, and the recent agreement amongst the major OPEC members, Iraq is essentially exempt from the exportation restrictions. This gives Iraq a HUGE advantage when they are ready to “flip the switch”!   Abadi is back in high-gear and on a mission…All in all… GREAT progress right now, and Iraq is in perfect position. Negotiations are beginning between  Baghdad and Kurdistan, which is going to lead to a very fast resolution on the HCL, paving the way for a smooth and *SUDDEN* RV… if we’ve ever been closer to the end of this ride, I can not remember when!  This still isn’t a guaranteed event, but MAN oh MAN is it looking good!

______________________________________________________________

Mike (Dinar Guru) –    …anything is possible and I’m just speculating…But, the IMF has told them at every Article IV consultation to stay pegged, close the spread and remove exchange restrictions. That seems like a tall order to accomplish before the end of the year. So far, they’ve haven’t gotten it done. All we need is the political will to make the change to an open market economy and then things could really pick up.

Mosul residents hopeful after Iraq declares victory over ISIS

Mosul Residents Hopeful After Iraq Declares Victory Over ISIS

MOSUL – Calm prevailed in eastern Mosul on Tuesday (July 11), a day after Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi declared victory over Islamic State (ISIS) in the city.

Streets were busy with cars and residents were trying to resume their lives.

“God willing, the situation will get better now that we got rid of the world’s largest terrorist network and we got rid of its oppression. God willing, we will remove destruction and damage caused by Daesh and normal life will return to the city,” Mishaal Ahmed, an engineer from the city said.

Though a few plumes of smoke were visible on the eastern side of the city, the sound of bombings and bursts of gunfire were absent for the first time since the start of the fighting with Islamic State, more than eight months ago.

Islamic State cornered in Mosul as Iraq prepares victory celebrations

Islamic State fighters were battling to hold on to the last few streets under their control in the Old City of Mosul on Monday, in what looked like a hopeless last stand in their former stronghold.

In fierce fighting, Iraqi army units forced the insurgents back, cornering them in a shrinking rectangle no more than 300 meters (yards) wide and 500 meters long by the Tigris river, according to a map published by the military media office.

Mosul has become ISIS-free, say coalition forces

Iraqi military spokesperson, Brigadier General Yahya Rasool announced on Thursday that ISIS extremists’ reign in the country is over.

Three years to the day since ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi declared the establishment of the so-called caliphate from the same spot.

On February 19, US-backed Iraqi forces launched a wide scale military operation to oust ISIS terrorists from the right bank of Mosul city, their last major stronghold. Before this, the forces managed to free parts of the left bank of the city.

Some are saying they have been crippled to the point that ISIS is barely recognizable as a “force” or “organization” any more. Either way, I think we’re at a point where we don’t even have to take “ISIS” into serious consideration when speculating on a potential increase in IQD value.  We have some big items on the table right now – a vote at the UN, an IMF matter, some Iraqi Parliament meetings that are significant… I think I’d just be clouding the waters if I tried to explain ALL that is on my radar right now, so I’ll suffice it to say this: We are at a potential crossroads right now, and it’s looking GOOD.

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   …In February of 2014 he [CBI’s Saleh] said this:  He said the appearance of Mohammed Saleh told the “time”, that “the Iraqi dinar is protected range is strong, and the cover of foreign currency is very high unless they are used for the purposes of reserves dedicated to the support of the Iraqi dinar.”  Admittedly he is looking to the future when he makes these statements.  However, he is a member of the planet and an economist. Thus… “There isn’t an economist or currency evaluator on the planet that states Iraq is or will be the strongest currency in the world” is a bit of hyperbole.  The dinars used to purchase foreign currency go directly to the CBI from the banks, since the banks have to get the foreign currency from the CBI in exchange for the dinars. Therefore, no one is saying that it “go[es] back to the banks to begin the cycle all over again.”   [reference Guru mike’s post 6-17-2017….stay tuned for more of this spirited debate]   [post 2 of 2]

An updated version of Mosul’s map showing the latest developments in the battle to oust ISIS from occupied districts in the city’s right bank has been obtained by The Baghdad Post on Wednesday.

On the map, the spots marked in green represent the previously ISIS-held areas that have been liberated.

As the map shows, the white spots represent the parts of the war-torn city where ISIS is still controlling.

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The central bank prepares banks and transfer 25 million per month”   Here is my take on this important development.  It occurred to me that what we are seeing here is a plan to use some of the reserves to reduce the money supply in Iraq. The article makes clear that there is not a corruption problem.  However, they are still putting some limits on the exchange (dinars for foreign currency).  Furthermore…the CBI is making it clear up front that the banks will not be allowed to take advantage of the public who wish to purchase foreign currency.  This means that they will be forced to give the foreign currency at the official rate rather than the market rate.  As word of this gets out there will be more and more people who will want to surrender their dinars at that rate, thus saving many dinars by getting the foreign currency below the market rate.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   This will have two effects:  first, it will put pressure on the market rate to come in line with the official rate.  Why would I buy something with 1300 dinar if I could get it for 1160 dinar by simply converting to dollars first (or Euros, etc.).  This will stabilize the market rate immediately and begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Second, the exchange of foreign currency for dinars will allow the CBI to destroy the dinars turned in (admittedly for a similar draw down on their reserves, however).  The result will put similar pressure on the market rate to begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Of course the exchange will be monitored and limited so that reserves don’t disappear. The CBI has ample reserves in comparison to the current money supply of dinars.  They could afford to give up even 1/3 of their reserves and still have over 100% coverage of their money supply.  …this is a prudent and simple way to draw down the money supply without affecting day to day commerce…because they will be exchanging with “travelers,” people who are doing so not for daily commerce but to go to a foreign country and spend the foreign currency.  This will therefore have no affect on liquidity within the country.   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

NOW MOSUL IS NOT ENOUGH HE WANTS ALL OF IRAQ! I JUST PRAY WE HAVE THE REFORMS BY THE END OF JUNE.]  Abadi never said such a thing – in fact, he’s not in charge of international support and acceptance. The IMF, WB and UN is [are?]. If anyone has anything to say along these lines – it’s not Abadi.  Nowhere has Abadi said he wants all of Iraq before he institutes monetary and currency reforms.  In fact, just last week one article inferred they are already well into the process of monetary reform. These are documented facts.

Iraqi forces take over 90% of western Mosul’s Zanjili, push closer to Old City

Iraqi Federal Police forces took are almost taking over Zanjili district in western Mosul, pushing closer to the Islamic State-held Old City, the service’s commander sid Friday.

Lt. Gen. Shaker Jawdat said his forces were controlling 90 percent of Zanjili district, and were advancing along 10 kilometers in neighboring al-Shifa. Both districts are the last two around the medieval Old City, IS’s last bastion in Mosul from where the group declared in 2014 the establishment of its rule in Iraq and Syria.

MadDScout (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The parliamentary economy supports the recent central bank measures to regulate the sale window of the currency”  Najib is saying the “economy is heating up”, and that the Parliament Economic Committee is in support of the strides the CBI has taken to organize and educate those banks taking part in the foreign currency sale, and this conducted in cooperation with the IMF…   Najib confirmed that there were banks who had to rectify their situations, in order to stay a part of the currency sale. She is part of Economic Committee.  In this way the Central Bank is moving forward on reform starting with the currency sale window.  They are moving forward!  I like that reform starts at “the currency window”.  These banks who are “rectifying” their situation are the exact type of institutions that were mentioned and bring the overall score down on that thing that is monetary reform.  Rectification will help to move the wheel forward.

Mike (Dinar Guru) –    …anything is possible and I’m just speculating…But, the IMF has told them at every Article IV consultation to stay pegged, close the spread and remove exchange restrictions. That seems like a tall order to accomplish before the end of the year. So far, they’ve haven’t gotten it done. All we need is the political will to make the change to an open market economy and then things could really pick up.

Mosul residents hopeful after Iraq declares victory over ISIS

Mosul Residents Hopeful After Iraq Declares Victory Over ISIS

MOSUL – Calm prevailed in eastern Mosul on Tuesday (July 11), a day after Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi declared victory over Islamic State (ISIS) in the city.

Streets were busy with cars and residents were trying to resume their lives.

“God willing, the situation will get better now that we got rid of the world’s largest terrorist network and we got rid of its oppression. God willing, we will remove destruction and damage caused by Daesh and normal life will return to the city,” Mishaal Ahmed, an engineer from the city said.

Though a few plumes of smoke were visible on the eastern side of the city, the sound of bombings and bursts of gunfire were absent for the first time since the start of the fighting with Islamic State, more than eight months ago.

In fierce fighting, Iraqi army units forced the insurgents back, cornering them in a shrinking rectangle no more than 300 meters (yards) wide and 500 meters long by the Tigris river, according to a map published by the military media office.

On February 19, US-backed Iraqi forces launched a wide scale military operation to oust ISIS terrorists from the right bank of Mosul city, their last major stronghold. Before this, the forces managed to free parts of the left bank of the city.

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –   Ramadan is over, and so is Eid-al-Fitr. If you’ve been keeping up with the news…you’ll agree that ISIS is just about over, too. Some are saying they have been crippled to the point that ISIS is barely recognizable as a “force” or “organization” any more. Either way, I think we’re at a point where we don’t even have to take “ISIS” into serious consideration when speculating on a potential increase in IQD value.  We have some big items on the table right now – a vote at the UN, an IMF matter, some Iraqi Parliament meetings that are significant… I think I’d just be clouding the waters if I tried to explain ALL that is on my radar right now, so I’ll suffice it to say this: We are at a potential crossroads right now, and it’s looking GOOD.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –  Its not “my” float scenario, its the truth as documented by the IMF and other experts…Those who are technical and want to learn, see this information and realize how monetary policy works… It’s not some magical event… lol… And those who study, see the case studies etc and read the words direct from IMF docs know the dinar will float when the time and conditions are right...Most hold on to some magical dream they will wake up to riches overnight and therefore refuse to accept reality…Maybe by fall Iraq will pass some laws and have banking insurance in place so they can begin to activate the banking system in Iraq (which ultimately will allow for foreign investment and the float to begin)…

Phillyman (Dinar Guru) –   Alot of news agencies reporting on what we already heard yesterday from Lieutenant General Abdul Gani al-Assad who stated “Mosul [will fall] in very few days, God willing,”. Today marks the end of the Eid al-Fitr festival, the 3 day celebration which began Sunday marking the end of Ramadan. It would have been nice to add liberation to those celebrations and hopefully those very few days don’t multiply.

Prime Minister Dr. Haider Abadi: Time is very close to declaring victory

Prime Minister Dr. Haider Abadi: Time is very close to declaring victory
==========
Prime Minister Dr. Haider al-Abadi said that the time is very near to announce the final victory over the gangs of the terrorist. “Our heroic forces are fighting and achieving new victories even during the Eid,” he said.
This came during a speech during a tour of a number of charitable and humanitarian institutions concerned with family and social care in the city of Kadhimiya.
“We are trying to liberate people before the earth,” he said.
Dr. Abbadi added that without the blood of martyrs and wounded, these victories would not have been achieved.
During his tour, he distributed gifts to orphaned children, congratulating Eid al-Fitr. He also briefed on ongoing works and future urban projects for humanitarian institutions, praising their role in the service of society and the efforts of supervisors and supervisors.

PSA – The DinarUpdates.com website has a very good post on this very subject – complete with research and links. The “test” website should be viewed with great caution.

When is another question entirely. I started this over 10 years ago and am still waiting for it to just start, let alone finish.  [reference Guru mike’s post 6-20-2017….will the debate continue?]

Thus… “There isn’t an economist or currency evaluator on the planet that states Iraq is or will be the strongest currency in the world” is a bit of hyperbole.  The dinars used to purchase foreign currency go directly to the CBI from the banks, since the banks have to get the foreign currency from the CBI in exchange for the dinars. Therefore, no one is saying that it “go[es] back to the banks to begin the cycle all over again.”   [reference Guru mike’s post 6-17-2017….stay tuned for more of this spirited debate]   [post 2 of 2]

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The central bank prepares banks and transfer 25 million per month”   Here is my take on this important development.  It occurred to me that what we are seeing here is a plan to use some of the reserves to reduce the money supply in Iraq. The article makes clear that there is not a corruption problem.  However, they are still putting some limits on the exchange (dinars for foreign currency).  Furthermore…the CBI is making it clear up front that the banks will not be allowed to take advantage of the public who wish to purchase foreign currency.  This means that they will be forced to give the foreign currency at the official rate rather than the market rate.  As word of this gets out there will be more and more people who will want to surrender their dinars at that rate, thus saving many dinars by getting the foreign currency below the market rate.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   This will have two effects:  first, it will put pressure on the market rate to come in line with the official rate.  Why would I buy something with 1300 dinar if I could get it for 1160 dinar by simply converting to dollars first (or Euros, etc.).  This will stabilize the market rate immediately and begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Second, the exchange of foreign currency for dinars will allow the CBI to destroy the dinars turned in (admittedly for a similar draw down on their reserves, however).  The result will put similar pressure on the market rate to begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Of course the exchange will be monitored and limited so that reserves don’t disappear. The CBI has ample reserves in comparison to the current money supply of dinars.  They could afford to give up even 1/3 of their reserves and still have over 100% coverage of their money supply.  …this is a prudent and simple way to draw down the money supply without affecting day to day commerce…because they will be exchanging with “travelers,” people who are doing so not for daily commerce but to go to a foreign country and spend the foreign currency.  This will therefore have no affect on liquidity within the country.   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

NOW MOSUL IS NOT ENOUGH HE WANTS ALL OF IRAQ! I JUST PRAY WE HAVE THE REFORMS BY THE END OF JUNE.]  Abadi never said such a thing – in fact, he’s not in charge of international support and acceptance. The IMF, WB and UN is [are?]. If anyone has anything to say along these lines – it’s not Abadi.  Nowhere has Abadi said he wants all of Iraq before he institutes monetary and currency reforms.  In fact, just last week one article inferred they are already well into the process of monetary reform. These are documented facts.

Both districts are the last two around the medieval Old City, IS’s last bastion in Mosul from where the group declared in 2014 the establishment of its rule in Iraq and Syria.

MadDScout (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The parliamentary economy supports the recent central bank measures to regulate the sale window of the currency”  Najib is saying the “economy is heating up”, and that the Parliament Economic Committee is in support of the strides the CBI has taken to organize and educate those banks taking part in the foreign currency sale, and this conducted in cooperation with the IMF…   Najib confirmed that there were banks who had to rectify their situations, in order to stay a part of the currency sale. She is part of Economic Committee.  In this way the Central Bank is moving forward on reform starting with the currency sale window.  They are moving forward!  I like that reform starts at “the currency window”.  These banks who are “rectifying” their situation are the exact type of institutions that were mentioned and bring the overall score down on that thing that is monetary reform.  Rectification will help to move the wheel forward.

Mosul residents hopeful after Iraq declares victory over ISIS

Mosul Residents Hopeful After Iraq Declares Victory Over ISIS

MOSUL – Calm prevailed in eastern Mosul on Tuesday (July 11), a day after Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi declared victory over Islamic State (ISIS) in the city.

Streets were busy with cars and residents were trying to resume their lives.

“God willing, the situation will get better now that we got rid of the world’s largest terrorist network and we got rid of its oppression. God willing, we will remove destruction and damage caused by Daesh and normal life will return to the city,” Mishaal Ahmed, an engineer from the city said.

Though a few plumes of smoke were visible on the eastern side of the city, the sound of bombings and bursts of gunfire were absent for the first time since the start of the fighting with Islamic State, more than eight months ago.

Phillyman (Dinar Guru) –   [Once they finally clear ISIS wonder what the next obstacle is gonna be before we see a change in the rate…]   …Even though they clear IS out of Mosul they are still in many other areas of Iraq.  Will it stop the changes we are looking for from moving forward?  Violence has permeated the region for centuries.  [Guru] Breitling says the Sunnis will always hate the Shia but that it will not impact this reform.  There seem to be too many countries/businesses pouring assets into Iraq to think it won’t turn around soon but of course time lines have brought so much frustration to this investment.

Islamic State cornered in Mosul as Iraq prepares victory celebrations

Islamic State fighters were battling to hold on to the last few streets under their control in the Old City of Mosul on Monday, in what looked like a hopeless last stand in their former stronghold.

In fierce fighting, Iraqi army units forced the insurgents back, cornering them in a shrinking rectangle no more than 300 meters (yards) wide and 500 meters long by the Tigris river, according to a map published by the military media office.

Mosul has become ISIS-free, say coalition forces

Iraqi military spokesperson, Brigadier General Yahya Rasool announced on Thursday that ISIS extremists’ reign in the country is over.

“Their fictitious state has fallen,” Rasool added.

Three years to the day since ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi declared the establishment of the so-called caliphate from the same spot.

On February 19, US-backed Iraqi forces launched a wide scale military operation to oust ISIS terrorists from the right bank of Mosul city, their last major stronghold. Before this, the forces managed to free parts of the left bank of the city.

Some are saying they have been crippled to the point that ISIS is barely recognizable as a “force” or “organization” any more. Either way, I think we’re at a point where we don’t even have to take “ISIS” into serious consideration when speculating on a potential increase in IQD value.  We have some big items on the table right now – a vote at the UN, an IMF matter, some Iraqi Parliament meetings that are significant… I think I’d just be clouding the waters if I tried to explain ALL that is on my radar right now, so I’ll suffice it to say this: We are at a potential crossroads right now, and it’s looking GOOD.

Thus… “There isn’t an economist or currency evaluator on the planet that states Iraq is or will be the strongest currency in the world” is a bit of hyperbole.  The dinars used to purchase foreign currency go directly to the CBI from the banks, since the banks have to get the foreign currency from the CBI in exchange for the dinars. Therefore, no one is saying that it “go[es] back to the banks to begin the cycle all over again.”   [reference Guru mike’s post 6-17-2017….stay tuned for more of this spirited debate]   [post 2 of 2]

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The central bank prepares banks and transfer 25 million per month”   Here is my take on this important development.  It occurred to me that what we are seeing here is a plan to use some of the reserves to reduce the money supply in Iraq. The article makes clear that there is not a corruption problem.  However, they are still putting some limits on the exchange (dinars for foreign currency).  Furthermore…the CBI is making it clear up front that the banks will not be allowed to take advantage of the public who wish to purchase foreign currency.  This means that they will be forced to give the foreign currency at the official rate rather than the market rate.  As word of this gets out there will be more and more people who will want to surrender their dinars at that rate, thus saving many dinars by getting the foreign currency below the market rate.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   This will have two effects:  first, it will put pressure on the market rate to come in line with the official rate.  Why would I buy something with 1300 dinar if I could get it for 1160 dinar by simply converting to dollars first (or Euros, etc.).  This will stabilize the market rate immediately and begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Second, the exchange of foreign currency for dinars will allow the CBI to destroy the dinars turned in (admittedly for a similar draw down on their reserves, however).  The result will put similar pressure on the market rate to begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Of course the exchange will be monitored and limited so that reserves don’t disappear. The CBI has ample reserves in comparison to the current money supply of dinars.  They could afford to give up even 1/3 of their reserves and still have over 100% coverage of their money supply.  …this is a prudent and simple way to draw down the money supply without affecting day to day commerce…because they will be exchanging with “travelers,” people who are doing so not for daily commerce but to go to a foreign country and spend the foreign currency.  This will therefore have no affect on liquidity within the country.   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

NOW MOSUL IS NOT ENOUGH HE WANTS ALL OF IRAQ! I JUST PRAY WE HAVE THE REFORMS BY THE END OF JUNE.]  Abadi never said such a thing – in fact, he’s not in charge of international support and acceptance. The IMF, WB and UN is [are?]. If anyone has anything to say along these lines – it’s not Abadi.  Nowhere has Abadi said he wants all of Iraq before he institutes monetary and currency reforms.  In fact, just last week one article inferred they are already well into the process of monetary reform. These are documented facts.

She is part of Economic Committee.  In this way the Central Bank is moving forward on reform starting with the currency sale window.  They are moving forward!  I like that reform starts at “the currency window”.  These banks who are “rectifying” their situation are the exact type of institutions that were mentioned and bring the overall score down on that thing that is monetary reform.  Rectification will help to move the wheel forward.

BGG (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “IMF REACHES AGREEMENT ON STAND-BY ARRANGEMENT WITH IRAQ”  Neither this nor the UN potentially releasing funds to Iraq at the end of June are any kind of “date” indicator.  However, they are both very interesting pieces of news. International support for Iraq grows daily. They need this support to reengage with the world.
______________________________________________________________

BGG (Dinar Guru) –   [kinda get the feeling that this is never gona happen and eventually they will go to the dollar.With all the support and conversation with the IMF – WB – UN… that is not the posture they are preparing…everything they are (the above mentioned groups) projecting lately is the image of progress.
______________________________________________________________

BGG (Dinar Guru) –  […is it just down to the old section of Mosul now?]  It is down to a very small area… what I heard a couple of days ago – tough going.  It is the end – of course it will be tough.  In the mean time – hang in there. This struggle will come to an end. At some point they will do something with this currency. When that happens – you are positioned to enjoy the benefit…and that is probably the most encouraging you have heard me in a while.

Jaafari: victories achieved the unity of the people of Iraq

Foreign Minister Dr. Ibrahim al-Jaafari said security victories have been achieved thanks to the cooperation and unity of the people of Iraq.

This came to clarify Jaafari, commenting on a British journalist after he considered that «the recent victories of Iraq at the expense of the terrorists was the cooperation of Britain». The minister said at a news conference on the sidelines of his participation in trade and investment conference in the British capital London, that «these victories have been achieved thanks to the cooperation and unity of the people of Iraq in their war against terrorism«, congratulated the recent victories by the Iraqis achieved in Mosul and other areas in conflict with terrorist groups .

Phillyman (Dinar Guru) –   [Once they finally clear ISIS wonder what the next obstacle is gonna be before we see a change in the rate…]   …Even though they clear IS out of Mosul they are still in many other areas of Iraq.  Will it stop the changes we are looking for from moving forward?  Violence has permeated the region for centuries.  [Guru] Breitling says the Sunnis will always hate the Shia but that it will not impact this reform.  There seem to be too many countries/businesses pouring assets into Iraq to think it won’t turn around soon but of course time lines have brought so much frustration to this investment.

Islamic State cornered in Mosul as Iraq prepares victory celebrations

Islamic State fighters were battling to hold on to the last few streets under their control in the Old City of Mosul on Monday, in what looked like a hopeless last stand in their former stronghold.

In fierce fighting, Iraqi army units forced the insurgents back, cornering them in a shrinking rectangle no more than 300 meters (yards) wide and 500 meters long by the Tigris river, according to a map published by the military media office.

Breitling (Dinar Guru) –  There’s lots of great news on what’s been happening.  Some very very good news coming out…you’ll love it.  The key is…to put everything on table so you can talk about this subject correctly.  And that’s all it is.  That’s my secret…People don’t get that a part of a country’s currency is part of it’s policy and strategy.  And what comes after that?  You have operations and tactics…none of this is a mystery.  How do you define a country’s currency a scam?  The idea is, is it going to gain value?  Is that a scam?  The Iraqi dinar is not a scam.  When I got in on this investment I got a report from the IMF…  Some of the information we had to pay for, some of it we found but it was undervalued.  They said the real value was between 4 and 12 cents.  That’s how I got into the Iraqi dinar…Before the Iraqi dinar came out…they had these conspiracy theories out on how it’s the dumbest thing in the world because they’re in the middle of a war.   We know they’re in the middle of a war…that’s why we’re investing.  What do you want to wait for it to be expensive and then invest?  [Part 1 of 4]

If that’s what you are asking, then yes – it is possible.  I don’t think it’s likely,  but it is possible.

Mosul has become ISIS-free, say coalition forces

Iraqi military spokesperson, Brigadier General Yahya Rasool announced on Thursday that ISIS extremists’ reign in the country is over.

“Their fictitious state has fallen,” Rasool added.

Three years to the day since ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi declared the establishment of the so-called caliphate from the same spot.

On February 19, US-backed Iraqi forces launched a wide scale military operation to oust ISIS terrorists from the right bank of Mosul city, their last major stronghold. Before this, the forces managed to free parts of the left bank of the city.

BGG (Dinar Guru) –  …This notice was from a June 26th [United Nations] meeting and only lasted 3 minutes and they adopted the resolution…the gist of it was they were gonna retain the funds contained therein until June 30th.  At which time all remaining funds will be transferred to the government of Iraq.  This unanimously adopted resolution under chapter VII of the United Nations Charter was adopted fully completely and without reservation…they had extended this deadline.  This was supposed to have happened a while back.  Something that was supposed to have happened didn’t happen and they pushed it back a little bit.  They said (and I paraphrase) you should not take this as a bad thing this is a good thing…that we [the UN] supports Iraq in internationalization in every which way or form…  [Part 1 of 2]

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –   Ramadan is over, and so is Eid-al-Fitr. If you’ve been keeping up with the news…you’ll agree that ISIS is just about over, too. Some are saying they have been crippled to the point that ISIS is barely recognizable as a “force” or “organization” any more. Either way, I think we’re at a point where we don’t even have to take “ISIS” into serious consideration when speculating on a potential increase in IQD value.  We have some big items on the table right now – a vote at the UN, an IMF matter, some Iraqi Parliament meetings that are significant… I think I’d just be clouding the waters if I tried to explain ALL that is on my radar right now, so I’ll suffice it to say this: We are at a potential crossroads right now, and it’s looking GOOD.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –  Its not “my” float scenario, its the truth as documented by the IMF and other experts…Those who are technical and want to learn, see this information and realize how monetary policy works… It’s not some magical event… lol… And those who study, see the case studies etc and read the words direct from IMF docs know the dinar will float when the time and conditions are right...Most hold on to some magical dream they will wake up to riches overnight and therefore refuse to accept reality…Maybe by fall Iraq will pass some laws and have banking insurance in place so they can begin to activate the banking system in Iraq (which ultimately will allow for foreign investment and the float to begin)…

Phillyman (Dinar Guru) –   Alot of news agencies reporting on what we already heard yesterday from Lieutenant General Abdul Gani al-Assad who stated “Mosul [will fall] in very few days, God willing,”.

It would have been nice to add liberation to those celebrations and hopefully those very few days don’t multiply.

==========

That action is a reaction to things accomplished or that action wouldn’t have even been mentioned.  The UNSC escrow account is being funded or well closed out if you will. End game, symbolically.

When is another question entirely. I started this over 10 years ago and am still waiting for it to just start, let alone finish.  [reference Guru mike’s post 6-20-2017….will the debate continue?]

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   According to the CBI website the Gross Foreign Assets at the CBI as of May 25, 2017 totaled $53.4 billion.  Saleh has stated more than once that the dinar is or will be one of the strongest currencies in the world and a reserve currency:  “Saleh said the Agency (news) said on Saturday: The dinar today has become a strong and like a hard currency through the Bank’s policy Central control of the cash raised in the local market.  He explained:  that the dinar covered in hard currency at a rate of more than (100%), and this rare condition, and has a cash reserve large hard currency than for (60) billion dollars retained by the face of difficult circumstances that may occur in the country, giving the power of the dinar against foreign currency.  This statement was made in 2012 but he has reiterated it several times.     [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   …In February of 2014 he [CBI’s Saleh] said this:  He said the appearance of Mohammed Saleh told the “time”, that “the Iraqi dinar is protected range is strong, and the cover of foreign currency is very high unless they are used for the purposes of reserves dedicated to the support of the Iraqi dinar.”  Admittedly he is looking to the future when he makes these statements.  However, he is a member of the planet and an economist. Thus… “There isn’t an economist or currency evaluator on the planet that states Iraq is or will be the strongest currency in the world” is a bit of hyperbole.  The dinars used to purchase foreign currency go directly to the CBI from the banks, since the banks have to get the foreign currency from the CBI in exchange for the dinars. Therefore, no one is saying that it “go[es] back to the banks to begin the cycle all over again.”   [reference Guru mike’s post 6-17-2017….stay tuned for more of this spirited debate]   [post 2 of 2]

Exclusive: Parts freed so far in Mosul explained on map 

An updated version of Mosul’s map showing the latest developments in the battle to oust ISIS from occupied districts in the city’s right bank has been obtained by The Baghdad Post on Wednesday.

On the map, the spots marked in green represent the previously ISIS-held areas that have been liberated.

As the map shows, the white spots represent the parts of the war-torn city where ISIS is still controlling.

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The central bank prepares banks and transfer 25 million per month”   Here is my take on this important development.  It occurred to me that what we are seeing here is a plan to use some of the reserves to reduce the money supply in Iraq. The article makes clear that there is not a corruption problem.  However, they are still putting some limits on the exchange (dinars for foreign currency).  Furthermore…the CBI is making it clear up front that the banks will not be allowed to take advantage of the public who wish to purchase foreign currency.  This means that they will be forced to give the foreign currency at the official rate rather than the market rate.  As word of this gets out there will be more and more people who will want to surrender their dinars at that rate, thus saving many dinars by getting the foreign currency below the market rate.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   This will have two effects:  first, it will put pressure on the market rate to come in line with the official rate.  Why would I buy something with 1300 dinar if I could get it for 1160 dinar by simply converting to dollars first (or Euros, etc.).  This will stabilize the market rate immediately and begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Second, the exchange of foreign currency for dinars will allow the CBI to destroy the dinars turned in (admittedly for a similar draw down on their reserves, however).  The result will put similar pressure on the market rate to begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Of course the exchange will be monitored and limited so that reserves don’t disappear. The CBI has ample reserves in comparison to the current money supply of dinars.  They could afford to give up even 1/3 of their reserves and still have over 100% coverage of their money supply.  …this is a prudent and simple way to draw down the money supply without affecting day to day commerce…because they will be exchanging with “travelers,” people who are doing so not for daily commerce but to go to a foreign country and spend the foreign currency.  This will therefore have no affect on liquidity within the country.   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

NOW MOSUL IS NOT ENOUGH HE WANTS ALL OF IRAQ! I JUST PRAY WE HAVE THE REFORMS BY THE END OF JUNE.]  Abadi never said such a thing – in fact, he’s not in charge of international support and acceptance. The IMF, WB and UN is [are?]. If anyone has anything to say along these lines – it’s not Abadi.  Nowhere has Abadi said he wants all of Iraq before he institutes monetary and currency reforms.  In fact, just last week one article inferred they are already well into the process of monetary reform. These are documented facts.

Iraqi forces take over 90% of western Mosul’s Zanjili, push closer to Old City

Iraqi Federal Police forces took are almost taking over Zanjili district in western Mosul, pushing closer to the Islamic State-held Old City, the service’s commander sid Friday.

Lt. Gen. Shaker Jawdat said his forces were controlling 90 percent of Zanjili district, and were advancing along 10 kilometers in neighboring al-Shifa. Both districts are the last two around the medieval Old City, IS’s last bastion in Mosul from where the group declared in 2014 the establishment of its rule in Iraq and Syria.

MadDScout (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The parliamentary economy supports the recent central bank measures to regulate the sale window of the currency”  Najib is saying the “economy is heating up”, and that the Parliament Economic Committee is in support of the strides the CBI has taken to organize and educate those banks taking part in the foreign currency sale, and this conducted in cooperation with the IMF…   Najib confirmed that there were banks who had to rectify their situations, in order to stay a part of the currency sale. She is part of Economic Committee.  In this way the Central Bank is moving forward on reform starting with the currency sale window.  They are moving forward!  I like that reform starts at “the currency window”.  These banks who are “rectifying” their situation are the exact type of institutions that were mentioned and bring the overall score down on that thing that is monetary reform.  Rectification will help to move the wheel forward.

When that happens – you are positioned to enjoy the benefit…and that is probably the most encouraging you have heard me in a while.

Islamic State cornered in Mosul as Iraq prepares victory celebrations

Islamic State fighters were battling to hold on to the last few streets under their control in the Old City of Mosul on Monday, in what looked like a hopeless last stand in their former stronghold.

In fierce fighting, Iraqi army units forced the insurgents back, cornering them in a shrinking rectangle no more than 300 meters (yards) wide and 500 meters long by the Tigris river, according to a map published by the military media office.

If that’s what you are asking, then yes – it is possible.  I don’t think it’s likely,  but it is possible.

Mosul has become ISIS-free, say coalition forces

Iraqi military spokesperson, Brigadier General Yahya Rasool announced on Thursday that ISIS extremists’ reign in the country is over.

“Their fictitious state has fallen,” Rasool added.

Three years to the day since ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi declared the establishment of the so-called caliphate from the same spot.

On February 19, US-backed Iraqi forces launched a wide scale military operation to oust ISIS terrorists from the right bank of Mosul city, their last major stronghold. Before this, the forces managed to free parts of the left bank of the city.

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –   Ramadan is over, and so is Eid-al-Fitr. If you’ve been keeping up with the news…you’ll agree that ISIS is just about over, too. Some are saying they have been crippled to the point that ISIS is barely recognizable as a “force” or “organization” any more. Either way, I think we’re at a point where we don’t even have to take “ISIS” into serious consideration when speculating on a potential increase in IQD value.  We have some big items on the table right now – a vote at the UN, an IMF matter, some Iraqi Parliament meetings that are significant… I think I’d just be clouding the waters if I tried to explain ALL that is on my radar right now, so I’ll suffice it to say this: We are at a potential crossroads right now, and it’s looking GOOD.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –  Its not “my” float scenario, its the truth as documented by the IMF and other experts…Those who are technical and want to learn, see this information and realize how monetary policy works… It’s not some magical event… lol… And those who study, see the case studies etc and read the words direct from IMF docs know the dinar will float when the time and conditions are right...Most hold on to some magical dream they will wake up to riches overnight and therefore refuse to accept reality…Maybe by fall Iraq will pass some laws and have banking insurance in place so they can begin to activate the banking system in Iraq (which ultimately will allow for foreign investment and the float to begin)…

Prime Minister Dr. Haider Abadi: Time is very close to declaring victory

Prime Minister Dr. Haider Abadi: Time is very close to declaring victory
==========
Prime Minister Dr. Haider al-Abadi said that the time is very near to announce the final victory over the gangs of the terrorist. “Our heroic forces are fighting and achieving new victories even during the Eid,” he said.
This came during a speech during a tour of a number of charitable and humanitarian institutions concerned with family and social care in the city of Kadhimiya.
“We are trying to liberate people before the earth,” he said.
Dr. Abbadi added that without the blood of martyrs and wounded, these victories would not have been achieved.
During his tour, he distributed gifts to orphaned children, congratulating Eid al-Fitr. He also briefed on ongoing works and future urban projects for humanitarian institutions, praising their role in the service of society and the efforts of supervisors and supervisors.

tman23 (Dinar Guru) –   The test website is interesting indeed…1 dinar equals 1.2 dollars…Be it a test or reality rate to come…We still dont know how they are going to deal with the 3 zero note currency...and there are no lower denoms that have been announced…without lower denoms…and going to 1 – to 1.2 usd…would not be good for us…  The IQD 3 zero notes will remain in the market place for an estimate 2 years and trade along side the new currency… Words from the CBI!   and be accepted for a period of ten years…which means you can exchange the 3 zero notes at the CBI …The fact remains…we dont know how the 3 zero notes we hold will be treated at exchange…

PSA – The DinarUpdates.com website has a very good post on this very subject – complete with research and links. The “test” website should be viewed with great caution.

Abadi: Soon we will announce the complete restoration of Mosul

Prime Minister Haidar al-Abadi said that Saudi officials stressed that the strength of Iraq is in the interest of Riyadh, adding that in a few days we will announce the restoration of Mosul in full.

Abadi said during a press briefing today on his tour to a number of neighboring countries. He pointed out that these countries praised the efforts of Iraq, especially in combating the organization of the preachers and the victories achieved by the security forces, adding that Iraq has returned to its real position among the countries of the world.

That action has a time line by and or before the end of the month. That action is a reaction to things accomplished or that action wouldn’t have even been mentioned.  The UNSC escrow account is being funded or well closed out if you will. End game, symbolically. That has meaning that is profound!  The Oil for Food program is to be done and gone for ever…  I may be wrong, but, that imo is Chapter 7 done in regards to MR and acceptance of Article 8 is in effect or will be, once in synchronization.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]

When is another question entirely. I started this over 10 years ago and am still waiting for it to just start, let alone finish.  [reference Guru mike’s post 6-20-2017….will the debate continue?]

Mosul on a date with an Iraqi victory

The Secretary General of the Democratic Peace Rally, Mohamed Iqbal Omar al-Sidli, on Sunday praised the important progress achieved by our armed forces in various formations in the squares of Mosul.

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   According to the CBI website the Gross Foreign Assets at the CBI as of May 25, 2017 totaled $53.4 billion.  Saleh has stated more than once that the dinar is or will be one of the strongest currencies in the world and a reserve currency:  “Saleh said the Agency (news) said on Saturday: The dinar today has become a strong and like a hard currency through the Bank’s policy Central control of the cash raised in the local market.  He explained:  that the dinar covered in hard currency at a rate of more than (100%), and this rare condition, and has a cash reserve large hard currency than for (60) billion dollars retained by the face of difficult circumstances that may occur in the country, giving the power of the dinar against foreign currency.  This statement was made in 2012 but he has reiterated it several times.     [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Thus… “There isn’t an economist or currency evaluator on the planet that states Iraq is or will be the strongest currency in the world” is a bit of hyperbole.  The dinars used to purchase foreign currency go directly to the CBI from the banks, since the banks have to get the foreign currency from the CBI in exchange for the dinars. Therefore, no one is saying that it “go[es] back to the banks to begin the cycle all over again.”   [reference Guru mike’s post 6-17-2017….stay tuned for more of this spirited debate]   [post 2 of 2]

On the map, the spots marked in green represent the previously ISIS-held areas that have been liberated.

As the map shows, the white spots represent the parts of the war-torn city where ISIS is still controlling.

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The central bank prepares banks and transfer 25 million per month”   Here is my take on this important development.  It occurred to me that what we are seeing here is a plan to use some of the reserves to reduce the money supply in Iraq. The article makes clear that there is not a corruption problem.  However, they are still putting some limits on the exchange (dinars for foreign currency).  Furthermore…the CBI is making it clear up front that the banks will not be allowed to take advantage of the public who wish to purchase foreign currency.  This means that they will be forced to give the foreign currency at the official rate rather than the market rate.  As word of this gets out there will be more and more people who will want to surrender their dinars at that rate, thus saving many dinars by getting the foreign currency below the market rate.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   This will have two effects:  first, it will put pressure on the market rate to come in line with the official rate.  Why would I buy something with 1300 dinar if I could get it for 1160 dinar by simply converting to dollars first (or Euros, etc.).  This will stabilize the market rate immediately and begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Second, the exchange of foreign currency for dinars will allow the CBI to destroy the dinars turned in (admittedly for a similar draw down on their reserves, however).  The result will put similar pressure on the market rate to begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Of course the exchange will be monitored and limited so that reserves don’t disappear. The CBI has ample reserves in comparison to the current money supply of dinars.  They could afford to give up even 1/3 of their reserves and still have over 100% coverage of their money supply.  …this is a prudent and simple way to draw down the money supply without affecting day to day commerce…because they will be exchanging with “travelers,” people who are doing so not for daily commerce but to go to a foreign country and spend the foreign currency.  This will therefore have no affect on liquidity within the country.   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

NOW MOSUL IS NOT ENOUGH HE WANTS ALL OF IRAQ! I JUST PRAY WE HAVE THE REFORMS BY THE END OF JUNE.]  Abadi never said such a thing – in fact, he’s not in charge of international support and acceptance. The IMF, WB and UN is [are?]. If anyone has anything to say along these lines – it’s not Abadi.  Nowhere has Abadi said he wants all of Iraq before he institutes monetary and currency reforms.  In fact, just last week one article inferred they are already well into the process of monetary reform. These are documented facts.

Iraqi forces take over 90% of western Mosul’s Zanjili, push closer to Old City

Lt. Gen. Shaker Jawdat said his forces were controlling 90 percent of Zanjili district, and were advancing along 10 kilometers in neighboring al-Shifa. Both districts are the last two around the medieval Old City, IS’s last bastion in Mosul from where the group declared in 2014 the establishment of its rule in Iraq and Syria.

______________________________________________________________

MadDScout (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The parliamentary economy supports the recent central bank measures to regulate the sale window of the currency”  Najib is saying the “economy is heating up”, and that the Parliament Economic Committee is in support of the strides the CBI has taken to organize and educate those banks taking part in the foreign currency sale, and this conducted in cooperation with the IMF…   Najib confirmed that there were banks who had to rectify their situations, in order to stay a part of the currency sale. She is part of Economic Committee.  In this way the Central Bank is moving forward on reform starting with the currency sale window.  They are moving forward!  I like that reform starts at “the currency window”.  These banks who are “rectifying” their situation are the exact type of institutions that were mentioned and bring the overall score down on that thing that is monetary reform.  Rectification will help to move the wheel forward.

Islamic State fighters were battling to hold on to the last few streets under their control in the Old City of Mosul on Monday, in what looked like a hopeless last stand in their former stronghold.

In fierce fighting, Iraqi army units forced the insurgents back, cornering them in a shrinking rectangle no more than 300 meters (yards) wide and 500 meters long by the Tigris river, according to a map published by the military media office.

Mosul has become ISIS-free, say coalition forces

Iraqi military spokesperson, Brigadier General Yahya Rasool announced on Thursday that ISIS extremists’ reign in the country is over.

“Their fictitious state has fallen,” Rasool added.

On February 19, US-backed Iraqi forces launched a wide scale military operation to oust ISIS terrorists from the right bank of Mosul city, their last major stronghold. Before this, the forces managed to free parts of the left bank of the city.

 Phillyman (Dinar Guru) –   Abadi has certainly declared victory but I get the impression that what we are looking for will take place in Mosul in a very open and public setting.  Tomorrow is their day of worship and I read that Sadr’s protestors are standing down and not protesting. I’m sure we would all love to see a major public declaration covered widely by news media tomorrow.  Whatever the case I’m sure today will be looked back on as a historical turn in the future of Iraq, certainly another day to be added to their list of holidays that are celebrated.

BGG (Dinar Guru) –  …This notice was from a June 26th [United Nations] meeting and only lasted 3 minutes and they adopted the resolution…the gist of it was they were gonna retain the funds contained therein until June 30th.  At which time all remaining funds will be transferred to the government of Iraq.  This unanimously adopted resolution under chapter VII of the United Nations Charter was adopted fully completely and without reservation…they had extended this deadline.  This was supposed to have happened a while back.  Something that was supposed to have happened didn’t happen and they pushed it back a little bit.  They said (and I paraphrase) you should not take this as a bad thing this is a good thing…that we [the UN] supports Iraq in internationalization in every which way or form…  [Part 1 of 2]

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –   Ramadan is over, and so is Eid-al-Fitr. If you’ve been keeping up with the news…you’ll agree that ISIS is just about over, too. Some are saying they have been crippled to the point that ISIS is barely recognizable as a “force” or “organization” any more. Either way, I think we’re at a point where we don’t even have to take “ISIS” into serious consideration when speculating on a potential increase in IQD value.  We have some big items on the table right now – a vote at the UN, an IMF matter, some Iraqi Parliament meetings that are significant… I think I’d just be clouding the waters if I tried to explain ALL that is on my radar right now, so I’ll suffice it to say this: We are at a potential crossroads right now, and it’s looking GOOD.

Prime Minister Dr. Haider Abadi: Time is very close to declaring victory

Prime Minister Dr. Haider Abadi: Time is very close to declaring victory
==========
Prime Minister Dr. Haider al-Abadi said that the time is very near to announce the final victory over the gangs of the terrorist. “Our heroic forces are fighting and achieving new victories even during the Eid,” he said.
This came during a speech during a tour of a number of charitable and humanitarian institutions concerned with family and social care in the city of Kadhimiya.
“We are trying to liberate people before the earth,” he said.
Dr. Abbadi added that without the blood of martyrs and wounded, these victories would not have been achieved.
During his tour, he distributed gifts to orphaned children, congratulating Eid al-Fitr. He also briefed on ongoing works and future urban projects for humanitarian institutions, praising their role in the service of society and the efforts of supervisors and supervisors.

tman23 (Dinar Guru) –   The test website is interesting indeed…1 dinar equals 1.2 dollars…Be it a test or reality rate to come…We still dont know how they are going to deal with the 3 zero note currency...and there are no lower denoms that have been announced…without lower denoms…and going to 1 – to 1.2 usd…would not be good for us…  The IQD 3 zero notes will remain in the market place for an estimate 2 years and trade along side the new currency… Words from the CBI!   and be accepted for a period of ten years…which means you can exchange the 3 zero notes at the CBI …The fact remains…we dont know how the 3 zero notes we hold will be treated at exchange…

PSA – The DinarUpdates.com website has a very good post on this very subject – complete with research and links. The “test” website should be viewed with great caution.

That action has a time line by and or before the end of the month. That action is a reaction to things accomplished or that action wouldn’t have even been mentioned.  The UNSC escrow account is being funded or well closed out if you will. End game, symbolically.

When is another question entirely. I started this over 10 years ago and am still waiting for it to just start, let alone finish.  [reference Guru mike’s post 6-20-2017….will the debate continue?]

Thus… “There isn’t an economist or currency evaluator on the planet that states Iraq is or will be the strongest currency in the world” is a bit of hyperbole.  The dinars used to purchase foreign currency go directly to the CBI from the banks, since the banks have to get the foreign currency from the CBI in exchange for the dinars. Therefore, no one is saying that it “go[es] back to the banks to begin the cycle all over again.”   [reference Guru mike’s post 6-17-2017….stay tuned for more of this spirited debate]   [post 2 of 2]

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The central bank prepares banks and transfer 25 million per month”   Here is my take on this important development.  It occurred to me that what we are seeing here is a plan to use some of the reserves to reduce the money supply in Iraq. The article makes clear that there is not a corruption problem.  However, they are still putting some limits on the exchange (dinars for foreign currency).  Furthermore…the CBI is making it clear up front that the banks will not be allowed to take advantage of the public who wish to purchase foreign currency.  This means that they will be forced to give the foreign currency at the official rate rather than the market rate.  As word of this gets out there will be more and more people who will want to surrender their dinars at that rate, thus saving many dinars by getting the foreign currency below the market rate.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   This will have two effects:  first, it will put pressure on the market rate to come in line with the official rate.  Why would I buy something with 1300 dinar if I could get it for 1160 dinar by simply converting to dollars first (or Euros, etc.).  This will stabilize the market rate immediately and begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Second, the exchange of foreign currency for dinars will allow the CBI to destroy the dinars turned in (admittedly for a similar draw down on their reserves, however).  The result will put similar pressure on the market rate to begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Of course the exchange will be monitored and limited so that reserves don’t disappear. The CBI has ample reserves in comparison to the current money supply of dinars.  They could afford to give up even 1/3 of their reserves and still have over 100% coverage of their money supply.  …this is a prudent and simple way to draw down the money supply without affecting day to day commerce…because they will be exchanging with “travelers,” people who are doing so not for daily commerce but to go to a foreign country and spend the foreign currency.  This will therefore have no affect on liquidity within the country.   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

NOW MOSUL IS NOT ENOUGH HE WANTS ALL OF IRAQ! I JUST PRAY WE HAVE THE REFORMS BY THE END OF JUNE.]  Abadi never said such a thing – in fact, he’s not in charge of international support and acceptance. The IMF, WB and UN is [are?]. If anyone has anything to say along these lines – it’s not Abadi.  Nowhere has Abadi said he wants all of Iraq before he institutes monetary and currency reforms.  In fact, just last week one article inferred they are already well into the process of monetary reform. These are documented facts.

MadDScout (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The parliamentary economy supports the recent central bank measures to regulate the sale window of the currency”  Najib is saying the “economy is heating up”, and that the Parliament Economic Committee is in support of the strides the CBI has taken to organize and educate those banks taking part in the foreign currency sale, and this conducted in cooperation with the IMF…   Najib confirmed that there were banks who had to rectify their situations, in order to stay a part of the currency sale. She is part of Economic Committee.  In this way the Central Bank is moving forward on reform starting with the currency sale window.  They are moving forward!  I like that reform starts at “the currency window”.  These banks who are “rectifying” their situation are the exact type of institutions that were mentioned and bring the overall score down on that thing that is monetary reform.  Rectification will help to move the wheel forward.

Islamic State fighters were battling to hold on to the last few streets under their control in the Old City of Mosul on Monday, in what looked like a hopeless last stand in their former stronghold.

In fierce fighting, Iraqi army units forced the insurgents back, cornering them in a shrinking rectangle no more than 300 meters (yards) wide and 500 meters long by the Tigris river, according to a map published by the military media office.

Phillyman (Dinar Guru) –   Article:  “IRAQI PM CONGRATULATES TROOPS ON ‘BIG VICTORY’ IN MOSUL”   Looks like Abadi went ahead with an announcement even though they are not done the liberation probably for the symbolism of it being the 3rd anniversary of al- Baghdadis sermon at the Mosul mosque.

Breitling (Dinar Guru) –  There’s lots of great news on what’s been happening.  Some very very good news coming out…you’ll love it.  The key is…to put everything on table so you can talk about this subject correctly.  And that’s all it is.  That’s my secret…People don’t get that a part of a country’s currency is part of it’s policy and strategy.  And what comes after that?  You have operations and tactics…none of this is a mystery.  How do you define a country’s currency a scam?  The idea is, is it going to gain value?  Is that a scam?  The Iraqi dinar is not a scam.  When I got in on this investment I got a report from the IMF…  Some of the information we had to pay for, some of it we found but it was undervalued.  They said the real value was between 4 and 12 cents.  That’s how I got into the Iraqi dinar…Before the Iraqi dinar came out…they had these conspiracy theories out on how it’s the dumbest thing in the world because they’re in the middle of a war.   We know they’re in the middle of a war…that’s why we’re investing.  What do you want to wait for it to be expensive and then invest?  [Part 1 of 4]

Mosul has become ISIS-free, say coalition forces

Iraqi military spokesperson, Brigadier General Yahya Rasool announced on Thursday that ISIS extremists’ reign in the country is over.

“Their fictitious state has fallen,” Rasool added.

Three years to the day since ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi declared the establishment of the so-called caliphate from the same spot.

On February 19, US-backed Iraqi forces launched a wide scale military operation to oust ISIS terrorists from the right bank of Mosul city, their last major stronghold. Before this, the forces managed to free parts of the left bank of the city.

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –   Ramadan is over, and so is Eid-al-Fitr. If you’ve been keeping up with the news…you’ll agree that ISIS is just about over, too. Some are saying they have been crippled to the point that ISIS is barely recognizable as a “force” or “organization” any more. Either way, I think we’re at a point where we don’t even have to take “ISIS” into serious consideration when speculating on a potential increase in IQD value.  We have some big items on the table right now – a vote at the UN, an IMF matter, some Iraqi Parliament meetings that are significant… I think I’d just be clouding the waters if I tried to explain ALL that is on my radar right now, so I’ll suffice it to say this: We are at a potential crossroads right now, and it’s looking GOOD.

Thus… “There isn’t an economist or currency evaluator on the planet that states Iraq is or will be the strongest currency in the world” is a bit of hyperbole.  The dinars used to purchase foreign currency go directly to the CBI from the banks, since the banks have to get the foreign currency from the CBI in exchange for the dinars. Therefore, no one is saying that it “go[es] back to the banks to begin the cycle all over again.”   [reference Guru mike’s post 6-17-2017….stay tuned for more of this spirited debate]   [post 2 of 2]

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The central bank prepares banks and transfer 25 million per month”   Here is my take on this important development.  It occurred to me that what we are seeing here is a plan to use some of the reserves to reduce the money supply in Iraq. The article makes clear that there is not a corruption problem.  However, they are still putting some limits on the exchange (dinars for foreign currency).  Furthermore…the CBI is making it clear up front that the banks will not be allowed to take advantage of the public who wish to purchase foreign currency.  This means that they will be forced to give the foreign currency at the official rate rather than the market rate.  As word of this gets out there will be more and more people who will want to surrender their dinars at that rate, thus saving many dinars by getting the foreign currency below the market rate.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   This will have two effects:  first, it will put pressure on the market rate to come in line with the official rate.  Why would I buy something with 1300 dinar if I could get it for 1160 dinar by simply converting to dollars first (or Euros, etc.).  This will stabilize the market rate immediately and begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Second, the exchange of foreign currency for dinars will allow the CBI to destroy the dinars turned in (admittedly for a similar draw down on their reserves, however).  The result will put similar pressure on the market rate to begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Of course the exchange will be monitored and limited so that reserves don’t disappear. The CBI has ample reserves in comparison to the current money supply of dinars.  They could afford to give up even 1/3 of their reserves and still have over 100% coverage of their money supply.  …this is a prudent and simple way to draw down the money supply without affecting day to day commerce…because they will be exchanging with “travelers,” people who are doing so not for daily commerce but to go to a foreign country and spend the foreign currency.  This will therefore have no affect on liquidity within the country.   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

NOW MOSUL IS NOT ENOUGH HE WANTS ALL OF IRAQ! I JUST PRAY WE HAVE THE REFORMS BY THE END OF JUNE.]  Abadi never said such a thing – in fact, he’s not in charge of international support and acceptance. The IMF, WB and UN is [are?]. If anyone has anything to say along these lines – it’s not Abadi.  Nowhere has Abadi said he wants all of Iraq before he institutes monetary and currency reforms.  In fact, just last week one article inferred they are already well into the process of monetary reform. These are documented facts.

She is part of Economic Committee.  In this way the Central Bank is moving forward on reform starting with the currency sale window.  They are moving forward!  I like that reform starts at “the currency window”.  These banks who are “rectifying” their situation are the exact type of institutions that were mentioned and bring the overall score down on that thing that is monetary reform.  Rectification will help to move the wheel forward.

International support for Iraq grows daily. They need this support to reengage with the world.
______________________________________________________________

BGG (Dinar Guru) –   [kinda get the feeling that this is never gona happen and eventually they will go to the dollar.With all the support and conversation with the IMF – WB – UN… that is not the posture they are preparing…everything they are (the above mentioned groups) projecting lately is the image of progress.
______________________________________________________________

BGG (Dinar Guru) –  […is it just down to the old section of Mosul now?]  It is down to a very small area… what I heard a couple of days ago – tough going.  It is the end – of course it will be tough.  In the mean time – hang in there. This struggle will come to an end. At some point they will do something with this currency. When that happens – you are positioned to enjoy the benefit…and that is probably the most encouraging you have heard me in a while.

Keys to economic victory

Dr.. In the name of Brahimi
After the victories on the remnants of the “preacher” terrorist, God willing, it is necessary to invoke all possible energies to start the second phase of the victory is the stage of reconstruction and reconstruction of the liberated areas, and this stage is no less important than the stage of liberalization and in this context I would like to refer again to the importance of reading the relationship between politics The economy is a new reading in which the economy is the independent variable in the relationship between them.

Today, the question to be answered is what are the most important requirements for economic reconstruction governorates?

This came to clarify Jaafari, commenting on a British journalist after he considered that «the recent victories of Iraq at the expense of the terrorists was the cooperation of Britain». The minister said at a news conference on the sidelines of his participation in trade and investment conference in the British capital London, that «these victories have been achieved thanks to the cooperation and unity of the people of Iraq in their war against terrorism«, congratulated the recent victories by the Iraqis achieved in Mosul and other areas in conflict with terrorist groups . In response to a reporter’s question on the disarmament of some quarters the way, al-Jaafari said »If you mean these paramilitaries, they are of the brave sons of the Iraqi people.»

Phillyman (Dinar Guru) –   [Once they finally clear ISIS wonder what the next obstacle is gonna be before we see a change in the rate…]   …Even though they clear IS out of Mosul they are still in many other areas of Iraq.  Will it stop the changes we are looking for from moving forward?  Violence has permeated the region for centuries.  [Guru] Breitling says the Sunnis will always hate the Shia but that it will not impact this reform.  There seem to be too many countries/businesses pouring assets into Iraq to think it won’t turn around soon but of course time lines have brought so much frustration to this investment.

Islamic State cornered in Mosul as Iraq prepares victory celebrations

Islamic State fighters were battling to hold on to the last few streets under their control in the Old City of Mosul on Monday, in what looked like a hopeless last stand in their former stronghold.

In fierce fighting, Iraqi army units forced the insurgents back, cornering them in a shrinking rectangle no more than 300 meters (yards) wide and 500 meters long by the Tigris river, according to a map published by the military media office.

Breitling (Dinar Guru) –  There’s lots of great news on what’s been happening.  Some very very good news coming out…you’ll love it.  The key is…to put everything on table so you can talk about this subject correctly.  And that’s all it is.  That’s my secret…People don’t get that a part of a country’s currency is part of it’s policy and strategy.  And what comes after that?  You have operations and tactics…none of this is a mystery.  How do you define a country’s currency a scam?  The idea is, is it going to gain value?  Is that a scam?  The Iraqi dinar is not a scam.  When I got in on this investment I got a report from the IMF…  Some of the information we had to pay for, some of it we found but it was undervalued.  They said the real value was between 4 and 12 cents.  That’s how I got into the Iraqi dinar…Before the Iraqi dinar came out…they had these conspiracy theories out on how it’s the dumbest thing in the world because they’re in the middle of a war.   We know they’re in the middle of a war…that’s why we’re investing.  What do you want to wait for it to be expensive and then invest?  [Part 1 of 4]

Mosul has become ISIS-free, say coalition forces

Iraqi military spokesperson, Brigadier General Yahya Rasool announced on Thursday that ISIS extremists’ reign in the country is over.

“Their fictitious state has fallen,” Rasool added.

Three years to the day since ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi declared the establishment of the so-called caliphate from the same spot.

On February 19, US-backed Iraqi forces launched a wide scale military operation to oust ISIS terrorists from the right bank of Mosul city, their last major stronghold. Before this, the forces managed to free parts of the left bank of the city.

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –   Ramadan is over, and so is Eid-al-Fitr. If you’ve been keeping up with the news…you’ll agree that ISIS is just about over, too. Some are saying they have been crippled to the point that ISIS is barely recognizable as a “force” or “organization” any more. Either way, I think we’re at a point where we don’t even have to take “ISIS” into serious consideration when speculating on a potential increase in IQD value.  We have some big items on the table right now – a vote at the UN, an IMF matter, some Iraqi Parliament meetings that are significant… I think I’d just be clouding the waters if I tried to explain ALL that is on my radar right now, so I’ll suffice it to say this: We are at a potential crossroads right now, and it’s looking GOOD.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –  Its not “my” float scenario, its the truth as documented by the IMF and other experts…Those who are technical and want to learn, see this information and realize how monetary policy works… It’s not some magical event… lol… And those who study, see the case studies etc and read the words direct from IMF docs know the dinar will float when the time and conditions are right...Most hold on to some magical dream they will wake up to riches overnight and therefore refuse to accept reality…Maybe by fall Iraq will pass some laws and have banking insurance in place so they can begin to activate the banking system in Iraq (which ultimately will allow for foreign investment and the float to begin)…

Phillyman (Dinar Guru) –   Alot of news agencies reporting on what we already heard yesterday from Lieutenant General Abdul Gani al-Assad who stated “Mosul [will fall] in very few days, God willing,”.

It would have been nice to add liberation to those celebrations and hopefully those very few days don’t multiply.

==========

When is another question entirely. I started this over 10 years ago and am still waiting for it to just start, let alone finish.  [reference Guru mike’s post 6-20-2017….will the debate continue?]

Thus… “There isn’t an economist or currency evaluator on the planet that states Iraq is or will be the strongest currency in the world” is a bit of hyperbole.  The dinars used to purchase foreign currency go directly to the CBI from the banks, since the banks have to get the foreign currency from the CBI in exchange for the dinars. Therefore, no one is saying that it “go[es] back to the banks to begin the cycle all over again.”   [reference Guru mike’s post 6-17-2017….stay tuned for more of this spirited debate]   [post 2 of 2]

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The central bank prepares banks and transfer 25 million per month”   Here is my take on this important development.  It occurred to me that what we are seeing here is a plan to use some of the reserves to reduce the money supply in Iraq. The article makes clear that there is not a corruption problem.  However, they are still putting some limits on the exchange (dinars for foreign currency).  Furthermore…the CBI is making it clear up front that the banks will not be allowed to take advantage of the public who wish to purchase foreign currency.  This means that they will be forced to give the foreign currency at the official rate rather than the market rate.  As word of this gets out there will be more and more people who will want to surrender their dinars at that rate, thus saving many dinars by getting the foreign currency below the market rate.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   This will have two effects:  first, it will put pressure on the market rate to come in line with the official rate.  Why would I buy something with 1300 dinar if I could get it for 1160 dinar by simply converting to dollars first (or Euros, etc.).  This will stabilize the market rate immediately and begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Second, the exchange of foreign currency for dinars will allow the CBI to destroy the dinars turned in (admittedly for a similar draw down on their reserves, however).  The result will put similar pressure on the market rate to begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Of course the exchange will be monitored and limited so that reserves don’t disappear. The CBI has ample reserves in comparison to the current money supply of dinars.  They could afford to give up even 1/3 of their reserves and still have over 100% coverage of their money supply.  …this is a prudent and simple way to draw down the money supply without affecting day to day commerce…because they will be exchanging with “travelers,” people who are doing so not for daily commerce but to go to a foreign country and spend the foreign currency.  This will therefore have no affect on liquidity within the country.   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

NOW MOSUL IS NOT ENOUGH HE WANTS ALL OF IRAQ! I JUST PRAY WE HAVE THE REFORMS BY THE END OF JUNE.]  Abadi never said such a thing – in fact, he’s not in charge of international support and acceptance. The IMF, WB and UN is [are?]. If anyone has anything to say along these lines – it’s not Abadi.  Nowhere has Abadi said he wants all of Iraq before he institutes monetary and currency reforms.  In fact, just last week one article inferred they are already well into the process of monetary reform. These are documented facts.

Iraqi forces take over 90% of western Mosul’s Zanjili, push closer to Old City

Iraqi Federal Police forces took are almost taking over Zanjili district in western Mosul, pushing closer to the Islamic State-held Old City, the service’s commander sid Friday.

Lt. Gen. Shaker Jawdat said his forces were controlling 90 percent of Zanjili district, and were advancing along 10 kilometers in neighboring al-Shifa.

______________________________________________________________

MadDScout (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The parliamentary economy supports the recent central bank measures to regulate the sale window of the currency”  Najib is saying the “economy is heating up”, and that the Parliament Economic Committee is in support of the strides the CBI has taken to organize and educate those banks taking part in the foreign currency sale, and this conducted in cooperation with the IMF…   Najib confirmed that there were banks who had to rectify their situations, in order to stay a part of the currency sale. She is part of Economic Committee.  In this way the Central Bank is moving forward on reform starting with the currency sale window.  They are moving forward!  I like that reform starts at “the currency window”.  These banks who are “rectifying” their situation are the exact type of institutions that were mentioned and bring the overall score down on that thing that is monetary reform.  Rectification will help to move the wheel forward.

When that happens – you are positioned to enjoy the benefit…and that is probably the most encouraging you have heard me in a while.

Islamic State cornered in Mosul as Iraq prepares victory celebrations

Islamic State fighters were battling to hold on to the last few streets under their control in the Old City of Mosul on Monday, in what looked like a hopeless last stand in their former stronghold.

In fierce fighting, Iraqi army units forced the insurgents back, cornering them in a shrinking rectangle no more than 300 meters (yards) wide and 500 meters long by the Tigris river, according to a map published by the military media office.

Mosul has become ISIS-free, say coalition forces

Iraqi military spokesperson, Brigadier General Yahya Rasool announced on Thursday that ISIS extremists’ reign in the country is over.

“Their fictitious state has fallen,” Rasool added.

Three years to the day since ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi declared the establishment of the so-called caliphate from the same spot.

On February 19, US-backed Iraqi forces launched a wide scale military operation to oust ISIS terrorists from the right bank of Mosul city, their last major stronghold. Before this, the forces managed to free parts of the left bank of the city.

BGG (Dinar Guru) –  …This notice was from a June 26th [United Nations] meeting and only lasted 3 minutes and they adopted the resolution…the gist of it was they were gonna retain the funds contained therein until June 30th.  At which time all remaining funds will be transferred to the government of Iraq.  This unanimously adopted resolution under chapter VII of the United Nations Charter was adopted fully completely and without reservation…they had extended this deadline.  This was supposed to have happened a while back.  Something that was supposed to have happened didn’t happen and they pushed it back a little bit.  They said (and I paraphrase) you should not take this as a bad thing this is a good thing…that we [the UN] supports Iraq in internationalization in every which way or form…  [Part 1 of 2]

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –   Ramadan is over, and so is Eid-al-Fitr. If you’ve been keeping up with the news…you’ll agree that ISIS is just about over, too. Some are saying they have been crippled to the point that ISIS is barely recognizable as a “force” or “organization” any more. Either way, I think we’re at a point where we don’t even have to take “ISIS” into serious consideration when speculating on a potential increase in IQD value.  We have some big items on the table right now – a vote at the UN, an IMF matter, some Iraqi Parliament meetings that are significant… I think I’d just be clouding the waters if I tried to explain ALL that is on my radar right now, so I’ll suffice it to say this: We are at a potential crossroads right now, and it’s looking GOOD.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –  Its not “my” float scenario, its the truth as documented by the IMF and other experts…Those who are technical and want to learn, see this information and realize how monetary policy works… It’s not some magical event… lol… And those who study, see the case studies etc and read the words direct from IMF docs know the dinar will float when the time and conditions are right...Most hold on to some magical dream they will wake up to riches overnight and therefore refuse to accept reality…Maybe by fall Iraq will pass some laws and have banking insurance in place so they can begin to activate the banking system in Iraq (which ultimately will allow for foreign investment and the float to begin)…

Ramadan is over in just a few days, and we’ll see pretty shortly how this rodeo is going to proceed!   [Ramadan ends on Saturday and then there’s Eid Al-Fitr for what? 3 days?]  Eid al-Fitr is not as much of a hindrance to an RV, but that’s debatable I guess.

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –    [The debate continues….]   Each of us is looking at a different set of numbers. In any case, I would personally take Keywords at his word, regardless of the numbers.  Saleh’s statement is sort of like Trump’s “I hope” statement. “Like a hard curency” is not the same as “world reserve currency” in my view.  I believe that, unless Planet X wipes us out in the next year or so, the dinar will become a world recognized currency. When is another question entirely. I started this over 10 years ago and am still waiting for it to just start, let alone finish.  [reference Guru mike’s post 6-20-2017….will the debate continue?]

Mosul on a date with an Iraqi victory

The Secretary General of the Democratic Peace Rally, Mohamed Iqbal Omar al-Sidli, on Sunday praised the important progress achieved by our armed forces in various formations in the squares of Mosul.

Iqbal said in a statement issued by his press office that “the storming of the old city of Mosul, which represents the last stronghold of the terrorist, is a welcome sign of the completion of the liberation of the province completely from the clutches of criminal gangs.” Drawn by the sacrifices and heroic heroism of our fighters. ”

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   According to the CBI website the Gross Foreign Assets at the CBI as of May 25, 2017 totaled $53.4 billion.  Saleh has stated more than once that the dinar is or will be one of the strongest currencies in the world and a reserve currency:  “Saleh said the Agency (news) said on Saturday: The dinar today has become a strong and like a hard currency through the Bank’s policy Central control of the cash raised in the local market.  He explained:  that the dinar covered in hard currency at a rate of more than (100%), and this rare condition, and has a cash reserve large hard currency than for (60) billion dollars retained by the face of difficult circumstances that may occur in the country, giving the power of the dinar against foreign currency.  This statement was made in 2012 but he has reiterated it several times.     [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   …In February of 2014 he [CBI’s Saleh] said this:  He said the appearance of Mohammed Saleh told the “time”, that “the Iraqi dinar is protected range is strong, and the cover of foreign currency is very high unless they are used for the purposes of reserves dedicated to the support of the Iraqi dinar.”  Admittedly he is looking to the future when he makes these statements.  However, he is a member of the planet and an economist. Thus… “There isn’t an economist or currency evaluator on the planet that states Iraq is or will be the strongest currency in the world” is a bit of hyperbole.  The dinars used to purchase foreign currency go directly to the CBI from the banks, since the banks have to get the foreign currency from the CBI in exchange for the dinars. Therefore, no one is saying that it “go[es] back to the banks to begin the cycle all over again.”   [reference Guru mike’s post 6-17-2017….stay tuned for more of this spirited debate]   [post 2 of 2]

Exclusive: Parts freed so far in Mosul explained on map 

An updated version of Mosul’s map showing the latest developments in the battle to oust ISIS from occupied districts in the city’s right bank has been obtained by The Baghdad Post on Wednesday.

On the map, the spots marked in green represent the previously ISIS-held areas that have been liberated.

As the map shows, the white spots represent the parts of the war-torn city where ISIS is still controlling.

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The central bank prepares banks and transfer 25 million per month”   Here is my take on this important development.  It occurred to me that what we are seeing here is a plan to use some of the reserves to reduce the money supply in Iraq. The article makes clear that there is not a corruption problem.  However, they are still putting some limits on the exchange (dinars for foreign currency).  Furthermore…the CBI is making it clear up front that the banks will not be allowed to take advantage of the public who wish to purchase foreign currency.  This means that they will be forced to give the foreign currency at the official rate rather than the market rate.  As word of this gets out there will be more and more people who will want to surrender their dinars at that rate, thus saving many dinars by getting the foreign currency below the market rate.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   This will have two effects:  first, it will put pressure on the market rate to come in line with the official rate.  Why would I buy something with 1300 dinar if I could get it for 1160 dinar by simply converting to dollars first (or Euros, etc.).  This will stabilize the market rate immediately and begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Second, the exchange of foreign currency for dinars will allow the CBI to destroy the dinars turned in (admittedly for a similar draw down on their reserves, however).  The result will put similar pressure on the market rate to begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Of course the exchange will be monitored and limited so that reserves don’t disappear. The CBI has ample reserves in comparison to the current money supply of dinars.  They could afford to give up even 1/3 of their reserves and still have over 100% coverage of their money supply.  …this is a prudent and simple way to draw down the money supply without affecting day to day commerce…because they will be exchanging with “travelers,” people who are doing so not for daily commerce but to go to a foreign country and spend the foreign currency.  This will therefore have no affect on liquidity within the country.   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

NOW MOSUL IS NOT ENOUGH HE WANTS ALL OF IRAQ! I JUST PRAY WE HAVE THE REFORMS BY THE END OF JUNE.]  Abadi never said such a thing – in fact, he’s not in charge of international support and acceptance. The IMF, WB and UN is [are?]. If anyone has anything to say along these lines – it’s not Abadi.  Nowhere has Abadi said he wants all of Iraq before he institutes monetary and currency reforms.  In fact, just last week one article inferred they are already well into the process of monetary reform. These are documented facts.

Iraqi forces take over 90% of western Mosul’s Zanjili, push closer to Old City

Iraqi Federal Police forces took are almost taking over Zanjili district in western Mosul, pushing closer to the Islamic State-held Old City, the service’s commander sid Friday.

Lt. Gen. Shaker Jawdat said his forces were controlling 90 percent of Zanjili district, and were advancing along 10 kilometers in neighboring al-Shifa. Both districts are the last two around the medieval Old City, IS’s last bastion in Mosul from where the group declared in 2014 the establishment of its rule in Iraq and Syria.

______________________________________________________________

MadDScout (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The parliamentary economy supports the recent central bank measures to regulate the sale window of the currency”  Najib is saying the “economy is heating up”, and that the Parliament Economic Committee is in support of the strides the CBI has taken to organize and educate those banks taking part in the foreign currency sale, and this conducted in cooperation with the IMF…   Najib confirmed that there were banks who had to rectify their situations, in order to stay a part of the currency sale. She is part of Economic Committee.  In this way the Central Bank is moving forward on reform starting with the currency sale window.  They are moving forward!  I like that reform starts at “the currency window”.  These banks who are “rectifying” their situation are the exact type of institutions that were mentioned and bring the overall score down on that thing that is monetary reform.  Rectification will help to move the wheel forward.

International support for Iraq grows daily. They need this support to reengage with the world.

BGG (Dinar Guru) –  […is it just down to the old section of Mosul now?]  It is down to a very small area… what I heard a couple of days ago – tough going.  It is the end – of course it will be tough.  In the mean time – hang in there. This struggle will come to an end. At some point they will do something with this currency. When that happens – you are positioned to enjoy the benefit…and that is probably the most encouraging you have heard me in a while.

Islamic State cornered in Mosul as Iraq prepares victory celebrations

Islamic State fighters were battling to hold on to the last few streets under their control in the Old City of Mosul on Monday, in what looked like a hopeless last stand in their former stronghold.

In fierce fighting, Iraqi army units forced the insurgents back, cornering them in a shrinking rectangle no more than 300 meters (yards) wide and 500 meters long by the Tigris river, according to a map published by the military media office.

Breitling (Dinar Guru) –  There’s lots of great news on what’s been happening.  Some very very good news coming out…you’ll love it.  The key is…to put everything on table so you can talk about this subject correctly.  And that’s all it is.  That’s my secret…People don’t get that a part of a country’s currency is part of it’s policy and strategy.  And what comes after that?  You have operations and tactics…none of this is a mystery.  How do you define a country’s currency a scam?  The idea is, is it going to gain value?  Is that a scam?  The Iraqi dinar is not a scam.  When I got in on this investment I got a report from the IMF…  Some of the information we had to pay for, some of it we found but it was undervalued.  They said the real value was between 4 and 12 cents.  That’s how I got into the Iraqi dinar…Before the Iraqi dinar came out…they had these conspiracy theories out on how it’s the dumbest thing in the world because they’re in the middle of a war.   We know they’re in the middle of a war…that’s why we’re investing.  What do you want to wait for it to be expensive and then invest?  [Part 1 of 4]

If that’s what you are asking, then yes – it is possible.  I don’t think it’s likely,  but it is possible.

Mosul has become ISIS-free, say coalition forces

Iraqi military spokesperson, Brigadier General Yahya Rasool announced on Thursday that ISIS extremists’ reign in the country is over.

“Their fictitious state has fallen,” Rasool added.

Three years to the day since ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi declared the establishment of the so-called caliphate from the same spot.

On February 19, US-backed Iraqi forces launched a wide scale military operation to oust ISIS terrorists from the right bank of Mosul city, their last major stronghold. Before this, the forces managed to free parts of the left bank of the city.

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –   Ramadan is over, and so is Eid-al-Fitr. If you’ve been keeping up with the news…you’ll agree that ISIS is just about over, too. Some are saying they have been crippled to the point that ISIS is barely recognizable as a “force” or “organization” any more. Either way, I think we’re at a point where we don’t even have to take “ISIS” into serious consideration when speculating on a potential increase in IQD value.  We have some big items on the table right now – a vote at the UN, an IMF matter, some Iraqi Parliament meetings that are significant… I think I’d just be clouding the waters if I tried to explain ALL that is on my radar right now, so I’ll suffice it to say this: We are at a potential crossroads right now, and it’s looking GOOD.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –  Its not “my” float scenario, its the truth as documented by the IMF and other experts…Those who are technical and want to learn, see this information and realize how monetary policy works… It’s not some magical event… lol… And those who study, see the case studies etc and read the words direct from IMF docs know the dinar will float when the time and conditions are right...Most hold on to some magical dream they will wake up to riches overnight and therefore refuse to accept reality…Maybe by fall Iraq will pass some laws and have banking insurance in place so they can begin to activate the banking system in Iraq (which ultimately will allow for foreign investment and the float to begin)…

Phillyman (Dinar Guru) –   Alot of news agencies reporting on what we already heard yesterday from Lieutenant General Abdul Gani al-Assad who stated “Mosul [will fall] in very few days, God willing,”. Today marks the end of the Eid al-Fitr festival, the 3 day celebration which began Sunday marking the end of Ramadan. It would have been nice to add liberation to those celebrations and hopefully those very few days don’t multiply.

Prime Minister Dr. Haider Abadi: Time is very close to declaring victory

Prime Minister Dr. Haider Abadi: Time is very close to declaring victory
==========
Prime Minister Dr. Haider al-Abadi said that the time is very near to announce the final victory over the gangs of the terrorist. “Our heroic forces are fighting and achieving new victories even during the Eid,” he said.
This came during a speech during a tour of a number of charitable and humanitarian institutions concerned with family and social care in the city of Kadhimiya.
“We are trying to liberate people before the earth,” he said.
Dr. Abbadi added that without the blood of martyrs and wounded, these victories would not have been achieved.
During his tour, he distributed gifts to orphaned children, congratulating Eid al-Fitr. He also briefed on ongoing works and future urban projects for humanitarian institutions, praising their role in the service of society and the efforts of supervisors and supervisors.

tman23 (Dinar Guru) –   The test website is interesting indeed…1 dinar equals 1.2 dollars…Be it a test or reality rate to come…We still dont know how they are going to deal with the 3 zero note currency...and there are no lower denoms that have been announced…without lower denoms…and going to 1 – to 1.2 usd…would not be good for us…  The IQD 3 zero notes will remain in the market place for an estimate 2 years and trade along side the new currency… Words from the CBI!   and be accepted for a period of ten years…which means you can exchange the 3 zero notes at the CBI …The fact remains…we dont know how the 3 zero notes we hold will be treated at exchange…

PSA – The DinarUpdates.com website has a very good post on this very subject – complete with research and links. The “test” website should be viewed with great caution.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –   “CBI website has a new look!”   This is a good sign. I know it’s easy to just assume they are remodeling there website..but I think its much more. With all the speculation that the banking system must open up to perpetuate international activities to support global investment, this new website to me is much more polished, professional and institutional. We could be getting closer.

Abadi: Soon we will announce the complete restoration of Mosul

Prime Minister Haidar al-Abadi said that Saudi officials stressed that the strength of Iraq is in the interest of Riyadh, adding that in a few days we will announce the restoration of Mosul in full.

Abadi said during a press briefing today on his tour to a number of neighboring countries. He pointed out that these countries praised the efforts of Iraq, especially in combating the organization of the preachers and the victories achieved by the security forces, adding that Iraq has returned to its real position among the countries of the world.

MilitiaMan (Dinar Guru) –   The UNSC Doc published just under three weeks ago this Friday told us all, that there was going to be an action within June 2016 [2017 ?]. That action has a time line by and or before the end of the month. That action is a reaction to things accomplished or that action wouldn’t have even been mentioned.  The UNSC escrow account is being funded or well closed out if you will. End game, symbolically. That has meaning that is profound!  The Oil for Food program is to be done and gone for ever…  I may be wrong, but, that imo is Chapter 7 done in regards to MR and acceptance of Article 8 is in effect or will be, once in synchronization.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –    [The debate continues….]   Each of us is looking at a different set of numbers. In any case, I would personally take Keywords at his word, regardless of the numbers.  Saleh’s statement is sort of like Trump’s “I hope” statement. “Like a hard curency” is not the same as “world reserve currency” in my view.  I believe that, unless Planet X wipes us out in the next year or so, the dinar will become a world recognized currency. When is another question entirely. I started this over 10 years ago and am still waiting for it to just start, let alone finish.  [reference Guru mike’s post 6-20-2017….will the debate continue?]

Mosul on a date with an Iraqi victory

The Secretary General of the Democratic Peace Rally, Mohamed Iqbal Omar al-Sidli, on Sunday praised the important progress achieved by our armed forces in various formations in the squares of Mosul.

Iqbal said in a statement issued by his press office that “the storming of the old city of Mosul, which represents the last stronghold of the terrorist, is a welcome sign of the completion of the liberation of the province completely from the clutches of criminal gangs.” Drawn by the sacrifices and heroic heroism of our fighters. ”

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   According to the CBI website the Gross Foreign Assets at the CBI as of May 25, 2017 totaled $53.4 billion.  Saleh has stated more than once that the dinar is or will be one of the strongest currencies in the world and a reserve currency:  “Saleh said the Agency (news) said on Saturday: The dinar today has become a strong and like a hard currency through the Bank’s policy Central control of the cash raised in the local market.  He explained:  that the dinar covered in hard currency at a rate of more than (100%), and this rare condition, and has a cash reserve large hard currency than for (60) billion dollars retained by the face of difficult circumstances that may occur in the country, giving the power of the dinar against foreign currency.  This statement was made in 2012 but he has reiterated it several times.     [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   …In February of 2014 he [CBI’s Saleh] said this:  He said the appearance of Mohammed Saleh told the “time”, that “the Iraqi dinar is protected range is strong, and the cover of foreign currency is very high unless they are used for the purposes of reserves dedicated to the support of the Iraqi dinar.”  Admittedly he is looking to the future when he makes these statements.  However, he is a member of the planet and an economist. Thus… “There isn’t an economist or currency evaluator on the planet that states Iraq is or will be the strongest currency in the world” is a bit of hyperbole.  The dinars used to purchase foreign currency go directly to the CBI from the banks, since the banks have to get the foreign currency from the CBI in exchange for the dinars. Therefore, no one is saying that it “go[es] back to the banks to begin the cycle all over again.”   [reference Guru mike’s post 6-17-2017….stay tuned for more of this spirited debate]   [post 2 of 2]

Exclusive: Parts freed so far in Mosul explained on map 

An updated version of Mosul’s map showing the latest developments in the battle to oust ISIS from occupied districts in the city’s right bank has been obtained by The Baghdad Post on Wednesday.

On the map, the spots marked in green represent the previously ISIS-held areas that have been liberated.

As the map shows, the white spots represent the parts of the war-torn city where ISIS is still controlling.

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The central bank prepares banks and transfer 25 million per month”   Here is my take on this important development.  It occurred to me that what we are seeing here is a plan to use some of the reserves to reduce the money supply in Iraq. The article makes clear that there is not a corruption problem.  However, they are still putting some limits on the exchange (dinars for foreign currency).  Furthermore…the CBI is making it clear up front that the banks will not be allowed to take advantage of the public who wish to purchase foreign currency.  This means that they will be forced to give the foreign currency at the official rate rather than the market rate.  As word of this gets out there will be more and more people who will want to surrender their dinars at that rate, thus saving many dinars by getting the foreign currency below the market rate.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   This will have two effects:  first, it will put pressure on the market rate to come in line with the official rate.  Why would I buy something with 1300 dinar if I could get it for 1160 dinar by simply converting to dollars first (or Euros, etc.).  This will stabilize the market rate immediately and begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Second, the exchange of foreign currency for dinars will allow the CBI to destroy the dinars turned in (admittedly for a similar draw down on their reserves, however).  The result will put similar pressure on the market rate to begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Of course the exchange will be monitored and limited so that reserves don’t disappear. The CBI has ample reserves in comparison to the current money supply of dinars.  They could afford to give up even 1/3 of their reserves and still have over 100% coverage of their money supply.  …this is a prudent and simple way to draw down the money supply without affecting day to day commerce…because they will be exchanging with “travelers,” people who are doing so not for daily commerce but to go to a foreign country and spend the foreign currency.  This will therefore have no affect on liquidity within the country.   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

NOW MOSUL IS NOT ENOUGH HE WANTS ALL OF IRAQ! I JUST PRAY WE HAVE THE REFORMS BY THE END OF JUNE.]  Abadi never said such a thing – in fact, he’s not in charge of international support and acceptance. The IMF, WB and UN is [are?]. If anyone has anything to say along these lines – it’s not Abadi.  Nowhere has Abadi said he wants all of Iraq before he institutes monetary and currency reforms.  In fact, just last week one article inferred they are already well into the process of monetary reform. These are documented facts.

Iraqi forces take over 90% of western Mosul’s Zanjili, push closer to Old City

Iraqi Federal Police forces took are almost taking over Zanjili district in western Mosul, pushing closer to the Islamic State-held Old City, the service’s commander sid Friday.

Lt. Gen. Shaker Jawdat said his forces were controlling 90 percent of Zanjili district, and were advancing along 10 kilometers in neighboring al-Shifa. Both districts are the last two around the medieval Old City, IS’s last bastion in Mosul from where the group declared in 2014 the establishment of its rule in Iraq and Syria.

______________________________________________________________

MadDScout (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The parliamentary economy supports the recent central bank measures to regulate the sale window of the currency”  Najib is saying the “economy is heating up”, and that the Parliament Economic Committee is in support of the strides the CBI has taken to organize and educate those banks taking part in the foreign currency sale, and this conducted in cooperation with the IMF…   Najib confirmed that there were banks who had to rectify their situations, in order to stay a part of the currency sale. She is part of Economic Committee.  In this way the Central Bank is moving forward on reform starting with the currency sale window.  They are moving forward!  I like that reform starts at “the currency window”.  These banks who are “rectifying” their situation are the exact type of institutions that were mentioned and bring the overall score down on that thing that is monetary reform.  Rectification will help to move the wheel forward.

Islamic State cornered in Mosul as Iraq prepares victory celebrations

Islamic State fighters were battling to hold on to the last few streets under their control in the Old City of Mosul on Monday, in what looked like a hopeless last stand in their former stronghold.

In fierce fighting, Iraqi army units forced the insurgents back, cornering them in a shrinking rectangle no more than 300 meters (yards) wide and 500 meters long by the Tigris river, according to a map published by the military media office.

If that’s what you are asking, then yes – it is possible.  I don’t think it’s likely,  but it is possible.

Mosul has become ISIS-free, say coalition forces

Iraqi military spokesperson, Brigadier General Yahya Rasool announced on Thursday that ISIS extremists’ reign in the country is over.

“Their fictitious state has fallen,” Rasool added.

Three years to the day since ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi declared the establishment of the so-called caliphate from the same spot.

On February 19, US-backed Iraqi forces launched a wide scale military operation to oust ISIS terrorists from the right bank of Mosul city, their last major stronghold. Before this, the forces managed to free parts of the left bank of the city.

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –   Ramadan is over, and so is Eid-al-Fitr. If you’ve been keeping up with the news…you’ll agree that ISIS is just about over, too. Some are saying they have been crippled to the point that ISIS is barely recognizable as a “force” or “organization” any more. Either way, I think we’re at a point where we don’t even have to take “ISIS” into serious consideration when speculating on a potential increase in IQD value.  We have some big items on the table right now – a vote at the UN, an IMF matter, some Iraqi Parliament meetings that are significant… I think I’d just be clouding the waters if I tried to explain ALL that is on my radar right now, so I’ll suffice it to say this: We are at a potential crossroads right now, and it’s looking GOOD.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –  Its not “my” float scenario, its the truth as documented by the IMF and other experts…Those who are technical and want to learn, see this information and realize how monetary policy works… It’s not some magical event… lol… And those who study, see the case studies etc and read the words direct from IMF docs know the dinar will float when the time and conditions are right...Most hold on to some magical dream they will wake up to riches overnight and therefore refuse to accept reality…Maybe by fall Iraq will pass some laws and have banking insurance in place so they can begin to activate the banking system in Iraq (which ultimately will allow for foreign investment and the float to begin)…

Components of the Iraqi payments system

It consists of the Iraqi payments system from the following systems:

• The total settlement of real – time system Real : Time Grosse Settlement (RTGS )

Prime Minister Dr. Haider Abadi: Time is very close to declaring victory
==========
Prime Minister Dr. Haider al-Abadi said that the time is very near to announce the final victory over the gangs of the terrorist. “Our heroic forces are fighting and achieving new victories even during the Eid,” he said.
This came during a speech during a tour of a number of charitable and humanitarian institutions concerned with family and social care in the city of Kadhimiya.
“We are trying to liberate people before the earth,” he said.
Dr. Abbadi added that without the blood of martyrs and wounded, these victories would not have been achieved.
During his tour, he distributed gifts to orphaned children, congratulating Eid al-Fitr. He also briefed on ongoing works and future urban projects for humanitarian institutions, praising their role in the service of society and the efforts of supervisors and supervisors.

tman23 (Dinar Guru) –   The test website is interesting indeed…1 dinar equals 1.2 dollars…Be it a test or reality rate to come…We still dont know how they are going to deal with the 3 zero note currency...and there are no lower denoms that have been announced…without lower denoms…and going to 1 – to 1.2 usd…would not be good for us…  The IQD 3 zero notes will remain in the market place for an estimate 2 years and trade along side the new currency… Words from the CBI!   and be accepted for a period of ten years…which means you can exchange the 3 zero notes at the CBI …The fact remains…we dont know how the 3 zero notes we hold will be treated at exchange…

PSA – The DinarUpdates.com website has a very good post on this very subject – complete with research and links. The “test” website should be viewed with great caution.

We could be getting closer.

Abadi: Soon we will announce the complete restoration of Mosul

Prime Minister Haidar al-Abadi said that Saudi officials stressed that the strength of Iraq is in the interest of Riyadh, adding that in a few days we will announce the restoration of Mosul in full.

Abadi said during a press briefing today on his tour to a number of neighboring countries. He pointed out that these countries praised the efforts of Iraq, especially in combating the organization of the preachers and the victories achieved by the security forces, adding that Iraq has returned to its real position among the countries of the world.

That action has a time line by and or before the end of the month. That action is a reaction to things accomplished or that action wouldn’t have even been mentioned.  The UNSC escrow account is being funded or well closed out if you will. End game, symbolically. That has meaning that is profound!  The Oil for Food program is to be done and gone for ever…  I may be wrong, but, that imo is Chapter 7 done in regards to MR and acceptance of Article 8 is in effect or will be, once in synchronization.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]

When is another question entirely. I started this over 10 years ago and am still waiting for it to just start, let alone finish.  [reference Guru mike’s post 6-20-2017….will the debate continue?]

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   According to the CBI website the Gross Foreign Assets at the CBI as of May 25, 2017 totaled $53.4 billion.  Saleh has stated more than once that the dinar is or will be one of the strongest currencies in the world and a reserve currency:  “Saleh said the Agency (news) said on Saturday: The dinar today has become a strong and like a hard currency through the Bank’s policy Central control of the cash raised in the local market.  He explained:  that the dinar covered in hard currency at a rate of more than (100%), and this rare condition, and has a cash reserve large hard currency than for (60) billion dollars retained by the face of difficult circumstances that may occur in the country, giving the power of the dinar against foreign currency.  This statement was made in 2012 but he has reiterated it several times.     [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Thus… “There isn’t an economist or currency evaluator on the planet that states Iraq is or will be the strongest currency in the world” is a bit of hyperbole.  The dinars used to purchase foreign currency go directly to the CBI from the banks, since the banks have to get the foreign currency from the CBI in exchange for the dinars. Therefore, no one is saying that it “go[es] back to the banks to begin the cycle all over again.”   [reference Guru mike’s post 6-17-2017….stay tuned for more of this spirited debate]   [post 2 of 2]

An updated version of Mosul’s map showing the latest developments in the battle to oust ISIS from occupied districts in the city’s right bank has been obtained by The Baghdad Post on Wednesday.

On the map, the spots marked in green represent the previously ISIS-held areas that have been liberated.

As the map shows, the white spots represent the parts of the war-torn city where ISIS is still controlling.

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The central bank prepares banks and transfer 25 million per month”   Here is my take on this important development.  It occurred to me that what we are seeing here is a plan to use some of the reserves to reduce the money supply in Iraq. The article makes clear that there is not a corruption problem.  However, they are still putting some limits on the exchange (dinars for foreign currency).  Furthermore…the CBI is making it clear up front that the banks will not be allowed to take advantage of the public who wish to purchase foreign currency.  This means that they will be forced to give the foreign currency at the official rate rather than the market rate.  As word of this gets out there will be more and more people who will want to surrender their dinars at that rate, thus saving many dinars by getting the foreign currency below the market rate.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   This will have two effects:  first, it will put pressure on the market rate to come in line with the official rate.  Why would I buy something with 1300 dinar if I could get it for 1160 dinar by simply converting to dollars first (or Euros, etc.).  This will stabilize the market rate immediately and begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Second, the exchange of foreign currency for dinars will allow the CBI to destroy the dinars turned in (admittedly for a similar draw down on their reserves, however).  The result will put similar pressure on the market rate to begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Of course the exchange will be monitored and limited so that reserves don’t disappear. The CBI has ample reserves in comparison to the current money supply of dinars.  They could afford to give up even 1/3 of their reserves and still have over 100% coverage of their money supply.  …this is a prudent and simple way to draw down the money supply without affecting day to day commerce…because they will be exchanging with “travelers,” people who are doing so not for daily commerce but to go to a foreign country and spend the foreign currency.  This will therefore have no affect on liquidity within the country.   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

NOW MOSUL IS NOT ENOUGH HE WANTS ALL OF IRAQ! I JUST PRAY WE HAVE THE REFORMS BY THE END OF JUNE.]  Abadi never said such a thing – in fact, he’s not in charge of international support and acceptance. The IMF, WB and UN is [are?]. If anyone has anything to say along these lines – it’s not Abadi.  Nowhere has Abadi said he wants all of Iraq before he institutes monetary and currency reforms.  In fact, just last week one article inferred they are already well into the process of monetary reform. These are documented facts.

Iraqi forces take over 90% of western Mosul’s Zanjili, push closer to Old City

Iraqi Federal Police forces took are almost taking over Zanjili district in western Mosul, pushing closer to the Islamic State-held Old City, the service’s commander sid Friday.

Both districts are the last two around the medieval Old City, IS’s last bastion in Mosul from where the group declared in 2014 the establishment of its rule in Iraq and Syria.

MadDScout (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The parliamentary economy supports the recent central bank measures to regulate the sale window of the currency”  Najib is saying the “economy is heating up”, and that the Parliament Economic Committee is in support of the strides the CBI has taken to organize and educate those banks taking part in the foreign currency sale, and this conducted in cooperation with the IMF…   Najib confirmed that there were banks who had to rectify their situations, in order to stay a part of the currency sale. She is part of Economic Committee.  In this way the Central Bank is moving forward on reform starting with the currency sale window.  They are moving forward!  I like that reform starts at “the currency window”.  These banks who are “rectifying” their situation are the exact type of institutions that were mentioned and bring the overall score down on that thing that is monetary reform.  Rectification will help to move the wheel forward.

Adam Montana  [Could Iraq state that only currency handed in to Iraq with-in its borders be given the preferential rate to start with? Please don’t think this is somehow an in country RV question I am asking as we know that rumor is totally bunk. Just thinking they may want to control the influx of currency to begin with is what I am getting at in a nutshell I guess.]  I think that what you are describing is still an in-country RV, with a twist that the in-country part is temporary. If that’s what you are asking, then yes – it is possible.  I don’t think it’s likely,  but it is possible.

Mosul has become ISIS-free, say coalition forces

Iraqi military spokesperson, Brigadier General Yahya Rasool announced on Thursday that ISIS extremists’ reign in the country is over.

“Their fictitious state has fallen,” Rasool added.

Three years to the day since ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi declared the establishment of the so-called caliphate from the same spot.

On February 19, US-backed Iraqi forces launched a wide scale military operation to oust ISIS terrorists from the right bank of Mosul city, their last major stronghold. Before this, the forces managed to free parts of the left bank of the city.

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –   Ramadan is over, and so is Eid-al-Fitr. If you’ve been keeping up with the news…you’ll agree that ISIS is just about over, too. Some are saying they have been crippled to the point that ISIS is barely recognizable as a “force” or “organization” any more. Either way, I think we’re at a point where we don’t even have to take “ISIS” into serious consideration when speculating on a potential increase in IQD value.  We have some big items on the table right now – a vote at the UN, an IMF matter, some Iraqi Parliament meetings that are significant… I think I’d just be clouding the waters if I tried to explain ALL that is on my radar right now, so I’ll suffice it to say this: We are at a potential crossroads right now, and it’s looking GOOD.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –  Its not “my” float scenario, its the truth as documented by the IMF and other experts…Those who are technical and want to learn, see this information and realize how monetary policy works… It’s not some magical event… lol… And those who study, see the case studies etc and read the words direct from IMF docs know the dinar will float when the time and conditions are right...Most hold on to some magical dream they will wake up to riches overnight and therefore refuse to accept reality…Maybe by fall Iraq will pass some laws and have banking insurance in place so they can begin to activate the banking system in Iraq (which ultimately will allow for foreign investment and the float to begin)…

Components of the Iraqi payments system

It consists of the Iraqi payments system from the following systems:

• The total settlement of real – time system Real : Time Grosse Settlement (RTGS )
• Clearing electronic instruments system . Check the Automated Clearing House is (the C-ACH)
• internal clearing system The Inter Bank to Clearing the System (site IBCS )
• Central Depository System Securities , the Central Securities , Depository (the CSD )
• infrastructure payment system Retail Retail Payment DVD Nasser the system infrastructure (RPSI )

This is from the new CBI website – here is an interesting bit “…- start working to assess the readiness of the Iraqi payments system in line with international standards (PFMIs) of Principles for Financial Market Infrastructures World Bank to improve the payment and settlement systems in Iraq as part of the agreement with the World Bank and dealing with electronic payment systems in Iraq…”

Today marks the end of the Eid al-Fitr festival, the 3 day celebration which began Sunday marking the end of Ramadan. It would have been nice to add liberation to those celebrations and hopefully those very few days don’t multiply.

Prime Minister Dr. Haider al-Abadi said that the time is very near to announce the final victory over the gangs of the terrorist. “Our heroic forces are fighting and achieving new victories even during the Eid,” he said.
This came during a speech during a tour of a number of charitable and humanitarian institutions concerned with family and social care in the city of Kadhimiya.
“We are trying to liberate people before the earth,” he said.
Dr. Abbadi added that without the blood of martyrs and wounded, these victories would not have been achieved.
During his tour, he distributed gifts to orphaned children, congratulating Eid al-Fitr. He also briefed on ongoing works and future urban projects for humanitarian institutions, praising their role in the service of society and the efforts of supervisors and supervisors.

tman23 (Dinar Guru) –   The test website is interesting indeed…1 dinar equals 1.2 dollars…Be it a test or reality rate to come…We still dont know how they are going to deal with the 3 zero note currency...and there are no lower denoms that have been announced…without lower denoms…and going to 1 – to 1.2 usd…would not be good for us…  The IQD 3 zero notes will remain in the market place for an estimate 2 years and trade along side the new currency… Words from the CBI!   and be accepted for a period of ten years…which means you can exchange the 3 zero notes at the CBI …The fact remains…we dont know how the 3 zero notes we hold will be treated at exchange…

PSA – The DinarUpdates.com website has a very good post on this very subject – complete with research and links. The “test” website should be viewed with great caution.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –   “CBI website has a new look!”   This is a good sign. I know it’s easy to just assume they are remodeling there website..but I think its much more. With all the speculation that the banking system must open up to perpetuate international activities to support global investment, this new website to me is much more polished, professional and institutional. We could be getting closer.

Abadi: Soon we will announce the complete restoration of Mosul

Prime Minister Haidar al-Abadi said that Saudi officials stressed that the strength of Iraq is in the interest of Riyadh, adding that in a few days we will announce the restoration of Mosul in full.

Abadi said during a press briefing today on his tour to a number of neighboring countries. He pointed out that these countries praised the efforts of Iraq, especially in combating the organization of the preachers and the victories achieved by the security forces, adding that Iraq has returned to its real position among the countries of the world.

MilitiaMan (Dinar Guru) –   The UNSC Doc published just under three weeks ago this Friday told us all, that there was going to be an action within June 2016 [2017 ?]. That action has a time line by and or before the end of the month. That action is a reaction to things accomplished or that action wouldn’t have even been mentioned.  The UNSC escrow account is being funded or well closed out if you will. End game, symbolically. That has meaning that is profound!  The Oil for Food program is to be done and gone for ever…  I may be wrong, but, that imo is Chapter 7 done in regards to MR and acceptance of Article 8 is in effect or will be, once in synchronization.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]

In any case, I would personally take Keywords at his word, regardless of the numbers.  Saleh’s statement is sort of like Trump’s “I hope” statement. “Like a hard curency” is not the same as “world reserve currency” in my view.  I believe that, unless Planet X wipes us out in the next year or so, the dinar will become a world recognized currency. When is another question entirely. I started this over 10 years ago and am still waiting for it to just start, let alone finish.  [reference Guru mike’s post 6-20-2017….will the debate continue?]

Mosul on a date with an Iraqi victory

The Secretary General of the Democratic Peace Rally, Mohamed Iqbal Omar al-Sidli, on Sunday praised the important progress achieved by our armed forces in various formations in the squares of Mosul.

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   According to the CBI website the Gross Foreign Assets at the CBI as of May 25, 2017 totaled $53.4 billion.  Saleh has stated more than once that the dinar is or will be one of the strongest currencies in the world and a reserve currency:  “Saleh said the Agency (news) said on Saturday: The dinar today has become a strong and like a hard currency through the Bank’s policy Central control of the cash raised in the local market.  He explained:  that the dinar covered in hard currency at a rate of more than (100%), and this rare condition, and has a cash reserve large hard currency than for (60) billion dollars retained by the face of difficult circumstances that may occur in the country, giving the power of the dinar against foreign currency.  This statement was made in 2012 but he has reiterated it several times.     [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   …In February of 2014 he [CBI’s Saleh] said this:  He said the appearance of Mohammed Saleh told the “time”, that “the Iraqi dinar is protected range is strong, and the cover of foreign currency is very high unless they are used for the purposes of reserves dedicated to the support of the Iraqi dinar.”  Admittedly he is looking to the future when he makes these statements.  However, he is a member of the planet and an economist. Thus… “There isn’t an economist or currency evaluator on the planet that states Iraq is or will be the strongest currency in the world” is a bit of hyperbole.  The dinars used to purchase foreign currency go directly to the CBI from the banks, since the banks have to get the foreign currency from the CBI in exchange for the dinars. Therefore, no one is saying that it “go[es] back to the banks to begin the cycle all over again.”   [reference Guru mike’s post 6-17-2017….stay tuned for more of this spirited debate]   [post 2 of 2]

On the map, the spots marked in green represent the previously ISIS-held areas that have been liberated.

As the map shows, the white spots represent the parts of the war-torn city where ISIS is still controlling.

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The central bank prepares banks and transfer 25 million per month”   Here is my take on this important development.  It occurred to me that what we are seeing here is a plan to use some of the reserves to reduce the money supply in Iraq. The article makes clear that there is not a corruption problem.  However, they are still putting some limits on the exchange (dinars for foreign currency).  Furthermore…the CBI is making it clear up front that the banks will not be allowed to take advantage of the public who wish to purchase foreign currency.  This means that they will be forced to give the foreign currency at the official rate rather than the market rate.  As word of this gets out there will be more and more people who will want to surrender their dinars at that rate, thus saving many dinars by getting the foreign currency below the market rate.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   This will have two effects:  first, it will put pressure on the market rate to come in line with the official rate.  Why would I buy something with 1300 dinar if I could get it for 1160 dinar by simply converting to dollars first (or Euros, etc.).  This will stabilize the market rate immediately and begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Second, the exchange of foreign currency for dinars will allow the CBI to destroy the dinars turned in (admittedly for a similar draw down on their reserves, however).  The result will put similar pressure on the market rate to begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Of course the exchange will be monitored and limited so that reserves don’t disappear. The CBI has ample reserves in comparison to the current money supply of dinars.  They could afford to give up even 1/3 of their reserves and still have over 100% coverage of their money supply.  …this is a prudent and simple way to draw down the money supply without affecting day to day commerce…because they will be exchanging with “travelers,” people who are doing so not for daily commerce but to go to a foreign country and spend the foreign currency.  This will therefore have no affect on liquidity within the country.   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

NOW MOSUL IS NOT ENOUGH HE WANTS ALL OF IRAQ! I JUST PRAY WE HAVE THE REFORMS BY THE END OF JUNE.]  Abadi never said such a thing – in fact, he’s not in charge of international support and acceptance. The IMF, WB and UN is [are?]. If anyone has anything to say along these lines – it’s not Abadi.  Nowhere has Abadi said he wants all of Iraq before he institutes monetary and currency reforms.  In fact, just last week one article inferred they are already well into the process of monetary reform. These are documented facts.

Iraqi forces take over 90% of western Mosul’s Zanjili, push closer to Old City

Iraqi Federal Police forces took are almost taking over Zanjili district in western Mosul, pushing closer to the Islamic State-held Old City, the service’s commander sid Friday.

Lt. Gen. Shaker Jawdat said his forces were controlling 90 percent of Zanjili district, and were advancing along 10 kilometers in neighboring al-Shifa. Both districts are the last two around the medieval Old City, IS’s last bastion in Mosul from where the group declared in 2014 the establishment of its rule in Iraq and Syria.

______________________________________________________________

MadDScout (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The parliamentary economy supports the recent central bank measures to regulate the sale window of the currency”  Najib is saying the “economy is heating up”, and that the Parliament Economic Committee is in support of the strides the CBI has taken to organize and educate those banks taking part in the foreign currency sale, and this conducted in cooperation with the IMF…   Najib confirmed that there were banks who had to rectify their situations, in order to stay a part of the currency sale. She is part of Economic Committee.  In this way the Central Bank is moving forward on reform starting with the currency sale window.  They are moving forward!  I like that reform starts at “the currency window”.  These banks who are “rectifying” their situation are the exact type of institutions that were mentioned and bring the overall score down on that thing that is monetary reform.  Rectification will help to move the wheel forward.

Please don’t think this is somehow an in country RV question I am asking as we know that rumor is totally bunk. Just thinking they may want to control the influx of currency to begin with is what I am getting at in a nutshell I guess.]  I think that what you are describing is still an in-country RV, with a twist that the in-country part is temporary. If that’s what you are asking, then yes – it is possible.  I don’t think it’s likely,  but it is possible.

Mosul has become ISIS-free, say coalition forces

Iraqi military spokesperson, Brigadier General Yahya Rasool announced on Thursday that ISIS extremists’ reign in the country is over.

“Their fictitious state has fallen,” Rasool added.

Three years to the day since ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi declared the establishment of the so-called caliphate from the same spot.

On February 19, US-backed Iraqi forces launched a wide scale military operation to oust ISIS terrorists from the right bank of Mosul city, their last major stronghold. Before this, the forces managed to free parts of the left bank of the city.

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –   Ramadan is over, and so is Eid-al-Fitr. If you’ve been keeping up with the news…you’ll agree that ISIS is just about over, too. Some are saying they have been crippled to the point that ISIS is barely recognizable as a “force” or “organization” any more. Either way, I think we’re at a point where we don’t even have to take “ISIS” into serious consideration when speculating on a potential increase in IQD value.  We have some big items on the table right now – a vote at the UN, an IMF matter, some Iraqi Parliament meetings that are significant… I think I’d just be clouding the waters if I tried to explain ALL that is on my radar right now, so I’ll suffice it to say this: We are at a potential crossroads right now, and it’s looking GOOD.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –  Its not “my” float scenario, its the truth as documented by the IMF and other experts…Those who are technical and want to learn, see this information and realize how monetary policy works… It’s not some magical event… lol… And those who study, see the case studies etc and read the words direct from IMF docs know the dinar will float when the time and conditions are right...Most hold on to some magical dream they will wake up to riches overnight and therefore refuse to accept reality…Maybe by fall Iraq will pass some laws and have banking insurance in place so they can begin to activate the banking system in Iraq (which ultimately will allow for foreign investment and the float to begin)…

Components of the Iraqi payments system

It consists of the Iraqi payments system from the following systems:

• The total settlement of real – time system Real : Time Grosse Settlement (RTGS )
• Clearing electronic instruments system . Check the Automated Clearing House is (the C-ACH)
• internal clearing system The Inter Bank to Clearing the System (site IBCS )
• Central Depository System Securities , the Central Securities , Depository (the CSD )
• infrastructure payment system Retail Retail Payment DVD Nasser the system infrastructure (RPSI )

This is from the new CBI website – here is an interesting bit “…- start working to assess the readiness of the Iraqi payments system in line with international standards (PFMIs) of Principles for Financial Market Infrastructures World Bank to improve the payment and settlement systems in Iraq as part of the agreement with the World Bank and dealing with electronic payment systems in Iraq…”

It would have been nice to add liberation to those celebrations and hopefully those very few days don’t multiply.

Prime Minister Dr. Haider al-Abadi said that the time is very near to announce the final victory over the gangs of the terrorist. “Our heroic forces are fighting and achieving new victories even during the Eid,” he said.
This came during a speech during a tour of a number of charitable and humanitarian institutions concerned with family and social care in the city of Kadhimiya.
“We are trying to liberate people before the earth,” he said.
Dr. Abbadi added that without the blood of martyrs and wounded, these victories would not have been achieved.
During his tour, he distributed gifts to orphaned children, congratulating Eid al-Fitr. He also briefed on ongoing works and future urban projects for humanitarian institutions, praising their role in the service of society and the efforts of supervisors and supervisors.

tman23 (Dinar Guru) –   The test website is interesting indeed…1 dinar equals 1.2 dollars…Be it a test or reality rate to come…We still dont know how they are going to deal with the 3 zero note currency...and there are no lower denoms that have been announced…without lower denoms…and going to 1 – to 1.2 usd…would not be good for us…  The IQD 3 zero notes will remain in the market place for an estimate 2 years and trade along side the new currency… Words from the CBI!   and be accepted for a period of ten years…which means you can exchange the 3 zero notes at the CBI …The fact remains…we dont know how the 3 zero notes we hold will be treated at exchange…

PSA – The DinarUpdates.com website has a very good post on this very subject – complete with research and links. The “test” website should be viewed with great caution.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –   “CBI website has a new look!”   This is a good sign. I know it’s easy to just assume they are remodeling there website..but I think its much more. With all the speculation that the banking system must open up to perpetuate international activities to support global investment, this new website to me is much more polished, professional and institutional. We could be getting closer.

Abadi: Soon we will announce the complete restoration of Mosul

Prime Minister Haidar al-Abadi said that Saudi officials stressed that the strength of Iraq is in the interest of Riyadh, adding that in a few days we will announce the restoration of Mosul in full.

Abadi said during a press briefing today on his tour to a number of neighboring countries. He pointed out that these countries praised the efforts of Iraq, especially in combating the organization of the preachers and the victories achieved by the security forces, adding that Iraq has returned to its real position among the countries of the world.

MilitiaMan (Dinar Guru) –   The UNSC Doc published just under three weeks ago this Friday told us all, that there was going to be an action within June 2016 [2017 ?]. That action has a time line by and or before the end of the month. That action is a reaction to things accomplished or that action wouldn’t have even been mentioned.  The UNSC escrow account is being funded or well closed out if you will. End game, symbolically. That has meaning that is profound!  The Oil for Food program is to be done and gone for ever…  I may be wrong, but, that imo is Chapter 7 done in regards to MR and acceptance of Article 8 is in effect or will be, once in synchronization.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –    [The debate continues….]   Each of us is looking at a different set of numbers. In any case, I would personally take Keywords at his word, regardless of the numbers.  Saleh’s statement is sort of like Trump’s “I hope” statement. “Like a hard curency” is not the same as “world reserve currency” in my view.  I believe that, unless Planet X wipes us out in the next year or so, the dinar will become a world recognized currency. When is another question entirely. I started this over 10 years ago and am still waiting for it to just start, let alone finish.  [reference Guru mike’s post 6-20-2017….will the debate continue?]

Mosul on a date with an Iraqi victory

The Secretary General of the Democratic Peace Rally, Mohamed Iqbal Omar al-Sidli, on Sunday praised the important progress achieved by our armed forces in various formations in the squares of Mosul.

Iqbal said in a statement issued by his press office that “the storming of the old city of Mosul, which represents the last stronghold of the terrorist, is a welcome sign of the completion of the liberation of the province completely from the clutches of criminal gangs.” Drawn by the sacrifices and heroic heroism of our fighters. ”

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   According to the CBI website the Gross Foreign Assets at the CBI as of May 25, 2017 totaled $53.4 billion.  Saleh has stated more than once that the dinar is or will be one of the strongest currencies in the world and a reserve currency:  “Saleh said the Agency (news) said on Saturday: The dinar today has become a strong and like a hard currency through the Bank’s policy Central control of the cash raised in the local market.  He explained:  that the dinar covered in hard currency at a rate of more than (100%), and this rare condition, and has a cash reserve large hard currency than for (60) billion dollars retained by the face of difficult circumstances that may occur in the country, giving the power of the dinar against foreign currency.  This statement was made in 2012 but he has reiterated it several times.     [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   …In February of 2014 he [CBI’s Saleh] said this:  He said the appearance of Mohammed Saleh told the “time”, that “the Iraqi dinar is protected range is strong, and the cover of foreign currency is very high unless they are used for the purposes of reserves dedicated to the support of the Iraqi dinar.”  Admittedly he is looking to the future when he makes these statements.  However, he is a member of the planet and an economist. Thus… “There isn’t an economist or currency evaluator on the planet that states Iraq is or will be the strongest currency in the world” is a bit of hyperbole.  The dinars used to purchase foreign currency go directly to the CBI from the banks, since the banks have to get the foreign currency from the CBI in exchange for the dinars. Therefore, no one is saying that it “go[es] back to the banks to begin the cycle all over again.”   [reference Guru mike’s post 6-17-2017….stay tuned for more of this spirited debate]   [post 2 of 2]

An updated version of Mosul’s map showing the latest developments in the battle to oust ISIS from occupied districts in the city’s right bank has been obtained by The Baghdad Post on Wednesday.

On the map, the spots marked in green represent the previously ISIS-held areas that have been liberated.

As the map shows, the white spots represent the parts of the war-torn city where ISIS is still controlling.

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The central bank prepares banks and transfer 25 million per month”   Here is my take on this important development.  It occurred to me that what we are seeing here is a plan to use some of the reserves to reduce the money supply in Iraq. The article makes clear that there is not a corruption problem.  However, they are still putting some limits on the exchange (dinars for foreign currency).  Furthermore…the CBI is making it clear up front that the banks will not be allowed to take advantage of the public who wish to purchase foreign currency.  This means that they will be forced to give the foreign currency at the official rate rather than the market rate.  As word of this gets out there will be more and more people who will want to surrender their dinars at that rate, thus saving many dinars by getting the foreign currency below the market rate.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   This will have two effects:  first, it will put pressure on the market rate to come in line with the official rate.  Why would I buy something with 1300 dinar if I could get it for 1160 dinar by simply converting to dollars first (or Euros, etc.).  This will stabilize the market rate immediately and begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Second, the exchange of foreign currency for dinars will allow the CBI to destroy the dinars turned in (admittedly for a similar draw down on their reserves, however).  The result will put similar pressure on the market rate to begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Of course the exchange will be monitored and limited so that reserves don’t disappear. The CBI has ample reserves in comparison to the current money supply of dinars.  They could afford to give up even 1/3 of their reserves and still have over 100% coverage of their money supply.  …this is a prudent and simple way to draw down the money supply without affecting day to day commerce…because they will be exchanging with “travelers,” people who are doing so not for daily commerce but to go to a foreign country and spend the foreign currency.  This will therefore have no affect on liquidity within the country.   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

NOW MOSUL IS NOT ENOUGH HE WANTS ALL OF IRAQ! I JUST PRAY WE HAVE THE REFORMS BY THE END OF JUNE.]  Abadi never said such a thing – in fact, he’s not in charge of international support and acceptance. The IMF, WB and UN is [are?]. If anyone has anything to say along these lines – it’s not Abadi.  Nowhere has Abadi said he wants all of Iraq before he institutes monetary and currency reforms.  In fact, just last week one article inferred they are already well into the process of monetary reform. These are documented facts.

Iraqi forces take over 90% of western Mosul’s Zanjili, push closer to Old City

Iraqi Federal Police forces took are almost taking over Zanjili district in western Mosul, pushing closer to the Islamic State-held Old City, the service’s commander sid Friday.

Lt. Gen. Shaker Jawdat said his forces were controlling 90 percent of Zanjili district, and were advancing along 10 kilometers in neighboring al-Shifa. Both districts are the last two around the medieval Old City, IS’s last bastion in Mosul from where the group declared in 2014 the establishment of its rule in Iraq and Syria.

______________________________________________________________

MadDScout (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The parliamentary economy supports the recent central bank measures to regulate the sale window of the currency”  Najib is saying the “economy is heating up”, and that the Parliament Economic Committee is in support of the strides the CBI has taken to organize and educate those banks taking part in the foreign currency sale, and this conducted in cooperation with the IMF…   Najib confirmed that there were banks who had to rectify their situations, in order to stay a part of the currency sale. She is part of Economic Committee.  In this way the Central Bank is moving forward on reform starting with the currency sale window.  They are moving forward!  I like that reform starts at “the currency window”.  These banks who are “rectifying” their situation are the exact type of institutions that were mentioned and bring the overall score down on that thing that is monetary reform.  Rectification will help to move the wheel forward.

This struggle will come to an end. At some point they will do something with this currency. When that happens – you are positioned to enjoy the benefit…and that is probably the most encouraging you have heard me in a while.

Mosul has become ISIS-free, say coalition forces

Iraqi military spokesperson, Brigadier General Yahya Rasool announced on Thursday that ISIS extremists’ reign in the country is over.

“Their fictitious state has fallen,” Rasool added.

Three years to the day since ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi declared the establishment of the so-called caliphate from the same spot.

On February 19, US-backed Iraqi forces launched a wide scale military operation to oust ISIS terrorists from the right bank of Mosul city, their last major stronghold. Before this, the forces managed to free parts of the left bank of the city.

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –   Ramadan is over, and so is Eid-al-Fitr. If you’ve been keeping up with the news…you’ll agree that ISIS is just about over, too. Some are saying they have been crippled to the point that ISIS is barely recognizable as a “force” or “organization” any more. Either way, I think we’re at a point where we don’t even have to take “ISIS” into serious consideration when speculating on a potential increase in IQD value.  We have some big items on the table right now – a vote at the UN, an IMF matter, some Iraqi Parliament meetings that are significant… I think I’d just be clouding the waters if I tried to explain ALL that is on my radar right now, so I’ll suffice it to say this: We are at a potential crossroads right now, and it’s looking GOOD.

Components of the Iraqi payments system

It consists of the Iraqi payments system from the following systems:

• The total settlement of real – time system Real : Time Grosse Settlement (RTGS )
• Clearing electronic instruments system . Check the Automated Clearing House is (the C-ACH)
• internal clearing system The Inter Bank to Clearing the System (site IBCS )
• Central Depository System Securities , the Central Securities , Depository (the CSD )
• infrastructure payment system Retail Retail Payment DVD Nasser the system infrastructure (RPSI )

This is from the new CBI website – here is an interesting bit “…- start working to assess the readiness of the Iraqi payments system in line with international standards (PFMIs) of Principles for Financial Market Infrastructures World Bank to improve the payment and settlement systems in Iraq as part of the agreement with the World Bank and dealing with electronic payment systems in Iraq…”

It would have been nice to add liberation to those celebrations and hopefully those very few days don’t multiply.

tman23 (Dinar Guru) –   The test website is interesting indeed…1 dinar equals 1.2 dollars…Be it a test or reality rate to come…We still dont know how they are going to deal with the 3 zero note currency...and there are no lower denoms that have been announced…without lower denoms…and going to 1 – to 1.2 usd…would not be good for us…  The IQD 3 zero notes will remain in the market place for an estimate 2 years and trade along side the new currency… Words from the CBI!   and be accepted for a period of ten years…which means you can exchange the 3 zero notes at the CBI …The fact remains…we dont know how the 3 zero notes we hold will be treated at exchange…

PSA – The DinarUpdates.com website has a very good post on this very subject – complete with research and links. The “test” website should be viewed with great caution.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –   “CBI website has a new look!”   This is a good sign. I know it’s easy to just assume they are remodeling there website..but I think its much more. With all the speculation that the banking system must open up to perpetuate international activities to support global investment, this new website to me is much more polished, professional and institutional. We could be getting closer.

Abadi: Soon we will announce the complete restoration of Mosul

Prime Minister Haidar al-Abadi said that Saudi officials stressed that the strength of Iraq is in the interest of Riyadh, adding that in a few days we will announce the restoration of Mosul in full.

Abadi said during a press briefing today on his tour to a number of neighboring countries. He pointed out that these countries praised the efforts of Iraq, especially in combating the organization of the preachers and the victories achieved by the security forces, adding that Iraq has returned to its real position among the countries of the world.

MilitiaMan (Dinar Guru) –   The UNSC Doc published just under three weeks ago this Friday told us all, that there was going to be an action within June 2016 [2017 ?]. That action has a time line by and or before the end of the month. That action is a reaction to things accomplished or that action wouldn’t have even been mentioned.  The UNSC escrow account is being funded or well closed out if you will. End game, symbolically. That has meaning that is profound!  The Oil for Food program is to be done and gone for ever…  I may be wrong, but, that imo is Chapter 7 done in regards to MR and acceptance of Article 8 is in effect or will be, once in synchronization.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]

In any case, I would personally take Keywords at his word, regardless of the numbers.  Saleh’s statement is sort of like Trump’s “I hope” statement. “Like a hard curency” is not the same as “world reserve currency” in my view.  I believe that, unless Planet X wipes us out in the next year or so, the dinar will become a world recognized currency. When is another question entirely. I started this over 10 years ago and am still waiting for it to just start, let alone finish.  [reference Guru mike’s post 6-20-2017….will the debate continue?]

Mosul on a date with an Iraqi victory

The Secretary General of the Democratic Peace Rally, Mohamed Iqbal Omar al-Sidli, on Sunday praised the important progress achieved by our armed forces in various formations in the squares of Mosul.

Iqbal said in a statement issued by his press office that “the storming of the old city of Mosul, which represents the last stronghold of the terrorist, is a welcome sign of the completion of the liberation of the province completely from the clutches of criminal gangs.” Drawn by the sacrifices and heroic heroism of our fighters. ”

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   According to the CBI website the Gross Foreign Assets at the CBI as of May 25, 2017 totaled $53.4 billion.  Saleh has stated more than once that the dinar is or will be one of the strongest currencies in the world and a reserve currency:  “Saleh said the Agency (news) said on Saturday: The dinar today has become a strong and like a hard currency through the Bank’s policy Central control of the cash raised in the local market.  He explained:  that the dinar covered in hard currency at a rate of more than (100%), and this rare condition, and has a cash reserve large hard currency than for (60) billion dollars retained by the face of difficult circumstances that may occur in the country, giving the power of the dinar against foreign currency.  This statement was made in 2012 but he has reiterated it several times.     [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   …In February of 2014 he [CBI’s Saleh] said this:  He said the appearance of Mohammed Saleh told the “time”, that “the Iraqi dinar is protected range is strong, and the cover of foreign currency is very high unless they are used for the purposes of reserves dedicated to the support of the Iraqi dinar.”  Admittedly he is looking to the future when he makes these statements.  However, he is a member of the planet and an economist. Thus… “There isn’t an economist or currency evaluator on the planet that states Iraq is or will be the strongest currency in the world” is a bit of hyperbole.  The dinars used to purchase foreign currency go directly to the CBI from the banks, since the banks have to get the foreign currency from the CBI in exchange for the dinars. Therefore, no one is saying that it “go[es] back to the banks to begin the cycle all over again.”   [reference Guru mike’s post 6-17-2017….stay tuned for more of this spirited debate]   [post 2 of 2]

Exclusive: Parts freed so far in Mosul explained on map 

An updated version of Mosul’s map showing the latest developments in the battle to oust ISIS from occupied districts in the city’s right bank has been obtained by The Baghdad Post on Wednesday.

On the map, the spots marked in green represent the previously ISIS-held areas that have been liberated.

As the map shows, the white spots represent the parts of the war-torn city where ISIS is still controlling.

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The central bank prepares banks and transfer 25 million per month”   Here is my take on this important development.  It occurred to me that what we are seeing here is a plan to use some of the reserves to reduce the money supply in Iraq. The article makes clear that there is not a corruption problem.  However, they are still putting some limits on the exchange (dinars for foreign currency).  Furthermore…the CBI is making it clear up front that the banks will not be allowed to take advantage of the public who wish to purchase foreign currency.  This means that they will be forced to give the foreign currency at the official rate rather than the market rate.  As word of this gets out there will be more and more people who will want to surrender their dinars at that rate, thus saving many dinars by getting the foreign currency below the market rate.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   This will have two effects:  first, it will put pressure on the market rate to come in line with the official rate.  Why would I buy something with 1300 dinar if I could get it for 1160 dinar by simply converting to dollars first (or Euros, etc.).  This will stabilize the market rate immediately and begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Second, the exchange of foreign currency for dinars will allow the CBI to destroy the dinars turned in (admittedly for a similar draw down on their reserves, however).  The result will put similar pressure on the market rate to begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Of course the exchange will be monitored and limited so that reserves don’t disappear. The CBI has ample reserves in comparison to the current money supply of dinars.  They could afford to give up even 1/3 of their reserves and still have over 100% coverage of their money supply.  …this is a prudent and simple way to draw down the money supply without affecting day to day commerce…because they will be exchanging with “travelers,” people who are doing so not for daily commerce but to go to a foreign country and spend the foreign currency.  This will therefore have no affect on liquidity within the country.   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

NOW MOSUL IS NOT ENOUGH HE WANTS ALL OF IRAQ! I JUST PRAY WE HAVE THE REFORMS BY THE END OF JUNE.]  Abadi never said such a thing – in fact, he’s not in charge of international support and acceptance. The IMF, WB and UN is [are?]. If anyone has anything to say along these lines – it’s not Abadi.  Nowhere has Abadi said he wants all of Iraq before he institutes monetary and currency reforms.  In fact, just last week one article inferred they are already well into the process of monetary reform. These are documented facts.

Iraqi forces take over 90% of western Mosul’s Zanjili, push closer to Old City

Iraqi Federal Police forces took are almost taking over Zanjili district in western Mosul, pushing closer to the Islamic State-held Old City, the service’s commander sid Friday.

Lt. Gen. Shaker Jawdat said his forces were controlling 90 percent of Zanjili district, and were advancing along 10 kilometers in neighboring al-Shifa. Both districts are the last two around the medieval Old City, IS’s last bastion in Mosul from where the group declared in 2014 the establishment of its rule in Iraq and Syria.

______________________________________________________________

MadDScout (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The parliamentary economy supports the recent central bank measures to regulate the sale window of the currency”  Najib is saying the “economy is heating up”, and that the Parliament Economic Committee is in support of the strides the CBI has taken to organize and educate those banks taking part in the foreign currency sale, and this conducted in cooperation with the IMF…   Najib confirmed that there were banks who had to rectify their situations, in order to stay a part of the currency sale. She is part of Economic Committee.  In this way the Central Bank is moving forward on reform starting with the currency sale window.  They are moving forward!  I like that reform starts at “the currency window”.  These banks who are “rectifying” their situation are the exact type of institutions that were mentioned and bring the overall score down on that thing that is monetary reform.  Rectification will help to move the wheel forward.

This struggle will come to an end. At some point they will do something with this currency. When that happens – you are positioned to enjoy the benefit…and that is probably the most encouraging you have heard me in a while.

Mosul has become ISIS-free, say coalition forces

Iraqi military spokesperson, Brigadier General Yahya Rasool announced on Thursday that ISIS extremists’ reign in the country is over.

“Their fictitious state has fallen,” Rasool added.

Three years to the day since ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi declared the establishment of the so-called caliphate from the same spot.

On February 19, US-backed Iraqi forces launched a wide scale military operation to oust ISIS terrorists from the right bank of Mosul city, their last major stronghold. Before this, the forces managed to free parts of the left bank of the city.

BGG (Dinar Guru) –  …This notice was from a June 26th [United Nations] meeting and only lasted 3 minutes and they adopted the resolution…the gist of it was they were gonna retain the funds contained therein until June 30th.  At which time all remaining funds will be transferred to the government of Iraq.  This unanimously adopted resolution under chapter VII of the United Nations Charter was adopted fully completely and without reservation…they had extended this deadline.  This was supposed to have happened a while back.  Something that was supposed to have happened didn’t happen and they pushed it back a little bit.  They said (and I paraphrase) you should not take this as a bad thing this is a good thing…that we [the UN] supports Iraq in internationalization in every which way or form…  [Part 1 of 2]

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –   Ramadan is over, and so is Eid-al-Fitr. If you’ve been keeping up with the news…you’ll agree that ISIS is just about over, too. Some are saying they have been crippled to the point that ISIS is barely recognizable as a “force” or “organization” any more. Either way, I think we’re at a point where we don’t even have to take “ISIS” into serious consideration when speculating on a potential increase in IQD value.  We have some big items on the table right now – a vote at the UN, an IMF matter, some Iraqi Parliament meetings that are significant… I think I’d just be clouding the waters if I tried to explain ALL that is on my radar right now, so I’ll suffice it to say this: We are at a potential crossroads right now, and it’s looking GOOD.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –  Its not “my” float scenario, its the truth as documented by the IMF and other experts…Those who are technical and want to learn, see this information and realize how monetary policy works… It’s not some magical event… lol… And those who study, see the case studies etc and read the words direct from IMF docs know the dinar will float when the time and conditions are right...Most hold on to some magical dream they will wake up to riches overnight and therefore refuse to accept reality…Maybe by fall Iraq will pass some laws and have banking insurance in place so they can begin to activate the banking system in Iraq (which ultimately will allow for foreign investment and the float to begin)…

Components of the Iraqi payments system

It consists of the Iraqi payments system from the following systems:

• The total settlement of real – time system Real : Time Grosse Settlement (RTGS )
• Clearing electronic instruments system . Check the Automated Clearing House is (the C-ACH)
• internal clearing system The Inter Bank to Clearing the System (site IBCS )
• Central Depository System Securities , the Central Securities , Depository (the CSD )
• infrastructure payment system Retail Retail Payment DVD Nasser the system infrastructure (RPSI )

This is from the new CBI website – here is an interesting bit “…- start working to assess the readiness of the Iraqi payments system in line with international standards (PFMIs) of Principles for Financial Market Infrastructures World Bank to improve the payment and settlement systems in Iraq as part of the agreement with the World Bank and dealing with electronic payment systems in Iraq…”

Prime Minister Dr. Haider Abadi: Time is very close to declaring victory
==========
Prime Minister Dr. Haider al-Abadi said that the time is very near to announce the final victory over the gangs of the terrorist. “Our heroic forces are fighting and achieving new victories even during the Eid,” he said.
This came during a speech during a tour of a number of charitable and humanitarian institutions concerned with family and social care in the city of Kadhimiya.
“We are trying to liberate people before the earth,” he said.
Dr. Abbadi added that without the blood of martyrs and wounded, these victories would not have been achieved.
During his tour, he distributed gifts to orphaned children, congratulating Eid al-Fitr. He also briefed on ongoing works and future urban projects for humanitarian institutions, praising their role in the service of society and the efforts of supervisors and supervisors.

That action has a time line by and or before the end of the month. That action is a reaction to things accomplished or that action wouldn’t have even been mentioned.  The UNSC escrow account is being funded or well closed out if you will. End game, symbolically.

Mosul on a date with an Iraqi victory

The Secretary General of the Democratic Peace Rally, Mohamed Iqbal Omar al-Sidli, on Sunday praised the important progress achieved by our armed forces in various formations in the squares of Mosul.

Thus… “There isn’t an economist or currency evaluator on the planet that states Iraq is or will be the strongest currency in the world” is a bit of hyperbole.  The dinars used to purchase foreign currency go directly to the CBI from the banks, since the banks have to get the foreign currency from the CBI in exchange for the dinars.

Exclusive: Parts freed so far in Mosul explained on map 

An updated version of Mosul’s map showing the latest developments in the battle to oust ISIS from occupied districts in the city’s right bank has been obtained by The Baghdad Post on Wednesday.

On the map, the spots marked in green represent the previously ISIS-held areas that have been liberated.

As the map shows, the white spots represent the parts of the war-torn city where ISIS is still controlling.

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The central bank prepares banks and transfer 25 million per month”   Here is my take on this important development.  It occurred to me that what we are seeing here is a plan to use some of the reserves to reduce the money supply in Iraq. The article makes clear that there is not a corruption problem.  However, they are still putting some limits on the exchange (dinars for foreign currency).  Furthermore…the CBI is making it clear up front that the banks will not be allowed to take advantage of the public who wish to purchase foreign currency.  This means that they will be forced to give the foreign currency at the official rate rather than the market rate.  As word of this gets out there will be more and more people who will want to surrender their dinars at that rate, thus saving many dinars by getting the foreign currency below the market rate.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   This will have two effects:  first, it will put pressure on the market rate to come in line with the official rate.  Why would I buy something with 1300 dinar if I could get it for 1160 dinar by simply converting to dollars first (or Euros, etc.).  This will stabilize the market rate immediately and begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Second, the exchange of foreign currency for dinars will allow the CBI to destroy the dinars turned in (admittedly for a similar draw down on their reserves, however).  The result will put similar pressure on the market rate to begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Of course the exchange will be monitored and limited so that reserves don’t disappear. The CBI has ample reserves in comparison to the current money supply of dinars.  They could afford to give up even 1/3 of their reserves and still have over 100% coverage of their money supply.  …this is a prudent and simple way to draw down the money supply without affecting day to day commerce…because they will be exchanging with “travelers,” people who are doing so not for daily commerce but to go to a foreign country and spend the foreign currency.  This will therefore have no affect on liquidity within the country.   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

NOW MOSUL IS NOT ENOUGH HE WANTS ALL OF IRAQ! I JUST PRAY WE HAVE THE REFORMS BY THE END OF JUNE.]  Abadi never said such a thing – in fact, he’s not in charge of international support and acceptance. The IMF, WB and UN is [are?]. If anyone has anything to say along these lines – it’s not Abadi.  Nowhere has Abadi said he wants all of Iraq before he institutes monetary and currency reforms.  In fact, just last week one article inferred they are already well into the process of monetary reform. These are documented facts.

Iraqi forces take over 90% of western Mosul’s Zanjili, push closer to Old City

Iraqi Federal Police forces took are almost taking over Zanjili district in western Mosul, pushing closer to the Islamic State-held Old City, the service’s commander sid Friday.

Lt. Gen. Shaker Jawdat said his forces were controlling 90 percent of Zanjili district, and were advancing along 10 kilometers in neighboring al-Shifa. Both districts are the last two around the medieval Old City, IS’s last bastion in Mosul from where the group declared in 2014 the establishment of its rule in Iraq and Syria.

MadDScout (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The parliamentary economy supports the recent central bank measures to regulate the sale window of the currency”  Najib is saying the “economy is heating up”, and that the Parliament Economic Committee is in support of the strides the CBI has taken to organize and educate those banks taking part in the foreign currency sale, and this conducted in cooperation with the IMF…   Najib confirmed that there were banks who had to rectify their situations, in order to stay a part of the currency sale. She is part of Economic Committee.  In this way the Central Bank is moving forward on reform starting with the currency sale window.  They are moving forward!  I like that reform starts at “the currency window”.  These banks who are “rectifying” their situation are the exact type of institutions that were mentioned and bring the overall score down on that thing that is monetary reform.  Rectification will help to move the wheel forward.

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –   Ramadan is over, and so is Eid-al-Fitr. If you’ve been keeping up with the news…you’ll agree that ISIS is just about over, too. Some are saying they have been crippled to the point that ISIS is barely recognizable as a “force” or “organization” any more. Either way, I think we’re at a point where we don’t even have to take “ISIS” into serious consideration when speculating on a potential increase in IQD value.  We have some big items on the table right now – a vote at the UN, an IMF matter, some Iraqi Parliament meetings that are significant… I think I’d just be clouding the waters if I tried to explain ALL that is on my radar right now, so I’ll suffice it to say this: We are at a potential crossroads right now, and it’s looking GOOD.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –  Its not “my” float scenario, its the truth as documented by the IMF and other experts…Those who are technical and want to learn, see this information and realize how monetary policy works… It’s not some magical event… lol… And those who study, see the case studies etc and read the words direct from IMF docs know the dinar will float when the time and conditions are right...Most hold on to some magical dream they will wake up to riches overnight and therefore refuse to accept reality…Maybe by fall Iraq will pass some laws and have banking insurance in place so they can begin to activate the banking system in Iraq (which ultimately will allow for foreign investment and the float to begin)…

Components of the Iraqi payments system

It consists of the Iraqi payments system from the following systems:

• The total settlement of real – time system Real : Time Grosse Settlement (RTGS )
• Clearing electronic instruments system . Check the Automated Clearing House is (the C-ACH)
• internal clearing system The Inter Bank to Clearing the System (site IBCS )
• Central Depository System Securities , the Central Securities , Depository (the CSD )
• infrastructure payment system Retail Retail Payment DVD Nasser the system infrastructure (RPSI )

This is from the new CBI website – here is an interesting bit “…- start working to assess the readiness of the Iraqi payments system in line with international standards (PFMIs) of Principles for Financial Market Infrastructures World Bank to improve the payment and settlement systems in Iraq as part of the agreement with the World Bank and dealing with electronic payment systems in Iraq…”

==========
Prime Minister Dr. Haider al-Abadi said that the time is very near to announce the final victory over the gangs of the terrorist. “Our heroic forces are fighting and achieving new victories even during the Eid,” he said.
This came during a speech during a tour of a number of charitable and humanitarian institutions concerned with family and social care in the city of Kadhimiya.
“We are trying to liberate people before the earth,” he said.
Dr. Abbadi added that without the blood of martyrs and wounded, these victories would not have been achieved.
During his tour, he distributed gifts to orphaned children, congratulating Eid al-Fitr. He also briefed on ongoing works and future urban projects for humanitarian institutions, praising their role in the service of society and the efforts of supervisors and supervisors.

tman23 (Dinar Guru) –   The test website is interesting indeed…1 dinar equals 1.2 dollars…Be it a test or reality rate to come…We still dont know how they are going to deal with the 3 zero note currency...and there are no lower denoms that have been announced…without lower denoms…and going to 1 – to 1.2 usd…would not be good for us…  The IQD 3 zero notes will remain in the market place for an estimate 2 years and trade along side the new currency… Words from the CBI!   and be accepted for a period of ten years…which means you can exchange the 3 zero notes at the CBI …The fact remains…we dont know how the 3 zero notes we hold will be treated at exchange…

PSA – The DinarUpdates.com website has a very good post on this very subject – complete with research and links. The “test” website should be viewed with great caution.

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The central bank prepares banks and transfer 25 million per month”   Here is my take on this important development.  It occurred to me that what we are seeing here is a plan to use some of the reserves to reduce the money supply in Iraq. The article makes clear that there is not a corruption problem.  However, they are still putting some limits on the exchange (dinars for foreign currency).  Furthermore…the CBI is making it clear up front that the banks will not be allowed to take advantage of the public who wish to purchase foreign currency.  This means that they will be forced to give the foreign currency at the official rate rather than the market rate.  As word of this gets out there will be more and more people who will want to surrender their dinars at that rate, thus saving many dinars by getting the foreign currency below the market rate.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   This will have two effects:  first, it will put pressure on the market rate to come in line with the official rate.  Why would I buy something with 1300 dinar if I could get it for 1160 dinar by simply converting to dollars first (or Euros, etc.).  This will stabilize the market rate immediately and begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Second, the exchange of foreign currency for dinars will allow the CBI to destroy the dinars turned in (admittedly for a similar draw down on their reserves, however).  The result will put similar pressure on the market rate to begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Of course the exchange will be monitored and limited so that reserves don’t disappear. The CBI has ample reserves in comparison to the current money supply of dinars.  They could afford to give up even 1/3 of their reserves and still have over 100% coverage of their money supply.  …this is a prudent and simple way to draw down the money supply without affecting day to day commerce…because they will be exchanging with “travelers,” people who are doing so not for daily commerce but to go to a foreign country and spend the foreign currency.  This will therefore have no affect on liquidity within the country.   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

This struggle will come to an end. At some point they will do something with this currency. When that happens – you are positioned to enjoy the benefit…and that is probably the most encouraging you have heard me in a while.

Phillyman (Dinar Guru) –   Alot of news agencies reporting on what we already heard yesterday from Lieutenant General Abdul Gani al-Assad who stated “Mosul [will fall] in very few days, God willing,”. Today marks the end of the Eid al-Fitr festival, the 3 day celebration which began Sunday marking the end of Ramadan. It would have been nice to add liberation to those celebrations and hopefully those very few days don’t multiply.

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) –   [How excited are you today from yesterday?]  MORE.   [Why more sir?]  BECAUSE THEY ARE RVING IMO.   [When they change their rate, do you think there will be a delay with u.s. banks finding out about the rate change? OH NO!!!  THEY R READY.  [IYO, Do you…believe that the new CBI website will realistically be fully ready by June 30, for the new International financial world?WE DO NOT KNOW…JUST EXCITED THAT THEY R CHANGING IT.  [IYO is the CBI web site now being hosted within Iraq?]  …YES.  [so much has taken place since the 12th of June, so many articles talking about internationlism with the IQD, IYO, is the 26th-30th still promising?]  WE STUDY 26/30 RT NOW BECAUSE IT IS LOGICAL…SUFFICE IT TO SAY…THINGS ARE UNUSUAL AND EXCITING ON THE MR [Monetary Reform].

Prime Minister Dr. Haider Abadi: Time is very close to declaring victory

Prime Minister Dr. Haider Abadi: Time is very close to declaring victory
==========
Prime Minister Dr. Haider al-Abadi said that the time is very near to announce the final victory over the gangs of the terrorist. “Our heroic forces are fighting and achieving new victories even during the Eid,” he said.
This came during a speech during a tour of a number of charitable and humanitarian institutions concerned with family and social care in the city of Kadhimiya.
“We are trying to liberate people before the earth,” he said.
Dr. Abbadi added that without the blood of martyrs and wounded, these victories would not have been achieved.
During his tour, he distributed gifts to orphaned children, congratulating Eid al-Fitr. He also briefed on ongoing works and future urban projects for humanitarian institutions, praising their role in the service of society and the efforts of supervisors and supervisors.

tman23 (Dinar Guru) –   The test website is interesting indeed…1 dinar equals 1.2 dollars…Be it a test or reality rate to come…We still dont know how they are going to deal with the 3 zero note currency...and there are no lower denoms that have been announced…without lower denoms…and going to 1 – to 1.2 usd…would not be good for us…  The IQD 3 zero notes will remain in the market place for an estimate 2 years and trade along side the new currency… Words from the CBI!   and be accepted for a period of ten years…which means you can exchange the 3 zero notes at the CBI …The fact remains…we dont know how the 3 zero notes we hold will be treated at exchange…

PSA – The DinarUpdates.com website has a very good post on this very subject – complete with research and links. The “test” website should be viewed with great caution.

We could be getting closer.

Abadi: Soon we will announce the complete restoration of Mosul

Prime Minister Haidar al-Abadi said that Saudi officials stressed that the strength of Iraq is in the interest of Riyadh, adding that in a few days we will announce the restoration of Mosul in full.

Abadi said during a press briefing today on his tour to a number of neighboring countries.

MilitiaMan (Dinar Guru) –   The UNSC Doc published just under three weeks ago this Friday told us all, that there was going to be an action within June 2016 [2017 ?]. That action has a time line by and or before the end of the month. That action is a reaction to things accomplished or that action wouldn’t have even been mentioned.  The UNSC escrow account is being funded or well closed out if you will. End game, symbolically. That has meaning that is profound!  The Oil for Food program is to be done and gone for ever…  I may be wrong, but, that imo is Chapter 7 done in regards to MR and acceptance of Article 8 is in effect or will be, once in synchronization.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –    [The debate continues….]   Each of us is looking at a different set of numbers. In any case, I would personally take Keywords at his word, regardless of the numbers.  Saleh’s statement is sort of like Trump’s “I hope” statement. “Like a hard curency” is not the same as “world reserve currency” in my view.  I believe that, unless Planet X wipes us out in the next year or so, the dinar will become a world recognized currency. When is another question entirely. I started this over 10 years ago and am still waiting for it to just start, let alone finish.  [reference Guru mike’s post 6-20-2017….will the debate continue?]

Mosul on a date with an Iraqi victory

The Secretary General of the Democratic Peace Rally, Mohamed Iqbal Omar al-Sidli, on Sunday praised the important progress achieved by our armed forces in various formations in the squares of Mosul.

Iqbal said in a statement issued by his press office that “the storming of the old city of Mosul, which represents the last stronghold of the terrorist, is a welcome sign of the completion of the liberation of the province completely from the clutches of criminal gangs.” Drawn by the sacrifices and heroic heroism of our fighters. ”

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   According to the CBI website the Gross Foreign Assets at the CBI as of May 25, 2017 totaled $53.4 billion.  Saleh has stated more than once that the dinar is or will be one of the strongest currencies in the world and a reserve currency:  “Saleh said the Agency (news) said on Saturday: The dinar today has become a strong and like a hard currency through the Bank’s policy Central control of the cash raised in the local market.  He explained:  that the dinar covered in hard currency at a rate of more than (100%), and this rare condition, and has a cash reserve large hard currency than for (60) billion dollars retained by the face of difficult circumstances that may occur in the country, giving the power of the dinar against foreign currency.  This statement was made in 2012 but he has reiterated it several times.     [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   …In February of 2014 he [CBI’s Saleh] said this:  He said the appearance of Mohammed Saleh told the “time”, that “the Iraqi dinar is protected range is strong, and the cover of foreign currency is very high unless they are used for the purposes of reserves dedicated to the support of the Iraqi dinar.”  Admittedly he is looking to the future when he makes these statements.  However, he is a member of the planet and an economist. Thus… “There isn’t an economist or currency evaluator on the planet that states Iraq is or will be the strongest currency in the world” is a bit of hyperbole.  The dinars used to purchase foreign currency go directly to the CBI from the banks, since the banks have to get the foreign currency from the CBI in exchange for the dinars. Therefore, no one is saying that it “go[es] back to the banks to begin the cycle all over again.”   [reference Guru mike’s post 6-17-2017….stay tuned for more of this spirited debate]   [post 2 of 2]

Components of the Iraqi payments system

It consists of the Iraqi payments system from the following systems:

• The total settlement of real – time system Real : Time Grosse Settlement (RTGS )

Prime Minister Dr. Haider Abadi: Time is very close to declaring victory
==========
Prime Minister Dr. Haider al-Abadi said that the time is very near to announce the final victory over the gangs of the terrorist. “Our heroic forces are fighting and achieving new victories even during the Eid,” he said.
This came during a speech during a tour of a number of charitable and humanitarian institutions concerned with family and social care in the city of Kadhimiya.
“We are trying to liberate people before the earth,” he said.
Dr. Abbadi added that without the blood of martyrs and wounded, these victories would not have been achieved.
During his tour, he distributed gifts to orphaned children, congratulating Eid al-Fitr. He also briefed on ongoing works and future urban projects for humanitarian institutions, praising their role in the service of society and the efforts of supervisors and supervisors.

tman23 (Dinar Guru) –   The test website is interesting indeed…1 dinar equals 1.2 dollars…Be it a test or reality rate to come…We still dont know how they are going to deal with the 3 zero note currency...and there are no lower denoms that have been announced…without lower denoms…and going to 1 – to 1.2 usd…would not be good for us…  The IQD 3 zero notes will remain in the market place for an estimate 2 years and trade along side the new currency… Words from the CBI!   and be accepted for a period of ten years…which means you can exchange the 3 zero notes at the CBI …The fact remains…we dont know how the 3 zero notes we hold will be treated at exchange…

PSA – The DinarUpdates.com website has a very good post on this very subject – complete with research and links. The “test” website should be viewed with great caution.

That action has a time line by and or before the end of the month. That action is a reaction to things accomplished or that action wouldn’t have even been mentioned.  The UNSC escrow account is being funded or well closed out if you will. End game, symbolically. That has meaning that is profound!  The Oil for Food program is to be done and gone for ever…  I may be wrong, but, that imo is Chapter 7 done in regards to MR and acceptance of Article 8 is in effect or will be, once in synchronization.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –    [The debate continues….]   Each of us is looking at a different set of numbers. In any case, I would personally take Keywords at his word, regardless of the numbers.  Saleh’s statement is sort of like Trump’s “I hope” statement. “Like a hard curency” is not the same as “world reserve currency” in my view.  I believe that, unless Planet X wipes us out in the next year or so, the dinar will become a world recognized currency. When is another question entirely. I started this over 10 years ago and am still waiting for it to just start, let alone finish.  [reference Guru mike’s post 6-20-2017….will the debate continue?]

Mosul on a date with an Iraqi victory

The Secretary General of the Democratic Peace Rally, Mohamed Iqbal Omar al-Sidli, on Sunday praised the important progress achieved by our armed forces in various formations in the squares of Mosul.

Iqbal said in a statement issued by his press office that “the storming of the old city of Mosul, which represents the last stronghold of the terrorist, is a welcome sign of the completion of the liberation of the province completely from the clutches of criminal gangs.” Drawn by the sacrifices and heroic heroism of our fighters. ”

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   According to the CBI website the Gross Foreign Assets at the CBI as of May 25, 2017 totaled $53.4 billion.  Saleh has stated more than once that the dinar is or will be one of the strongest currencies in the world and a reserve currency:  “Saleh said the Agency (news) said on Saturday: The dinar today has become a strong and like a hard currency through the Bank’s policy Central control of the cash raised in the local market.  He explained:  that the dinar covered in hard currency at a rate of more than (100%), and this rare condition, and has a cash reserve large hard currency than for (60) billion dollars retained by the face of difficult circumstances that may occur in the country, giving the power of the dinar against foreign currency.  This statement was made in 2012 but he has reiterated it several times.     [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   …In February of 2014 he [CBI’s Saleh] said this:  He said the appearance of Mohammed Saleh told the “time”, that “the Iraqi dinar is protected range is strong, and the cover of foreign currency is very high unless they are used for the purposes of reserves dedicated to the support of the Iraqi dinar.”  Admittedly he is looking to the future when he makes these statements.  However, he is a member of the planet and an economist. Thus… “There isn’t an economist or currency evaluator on the planet that states Iraq is or will be the strongest currency in the world” is a bit of hyperbole.  The dinars used to purchase foreign currency go directly to the CBI from the banks, since the banks have to get the foreign currency from the CBI in exchange for the dinars. Therefore, no one is saying that it “go[es] back to the banks to begin the cycle all over again.”   [reference Guru mike’s post 6-17-2017….stay tuned for more of this spirited debate]   [post 2 of 2]

Exclusive: Parts freed so far in Mosul explained on map 

An updated version of Mosul’s map showing the latest developments in the battle to oust ISIS from occupied districts in the city’s right bank has been obtained by The Baghdad Post on Wednesday.

On the map, the spots marked in green represent the previously ISIS-held areas that have been liberated.

As the map shows, the white spots represent the parts of the war-torn city where ISIS is still controlling.

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The central bank prepares banks and transfer 25 million per month”   Here is my take on this important development.  It occurred to me that what we are seeing here is a plan to use some of the reserves to reduce the money supply in Iraq. The article makes clear that there is not a corruption problem.  However, they are still putting some limits on the exchange (dinars for foreign currency).  Furthermore…the CBI is making it clear up front that the banks will not be allowed to take advantage of the public who wish to purchase foreign currency.  This means that they will be forced to give the foreign currency at the official rate rather than the market rate.  As word of this gets out there will be more and more people who will want to surrender their dinars at that rate, thus saving many dinars by getting the foreign currency below the market rate.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   This will have two effects:  first, it will put pressure on the market rate to come in line with the official rate.  Why would I buy something with 1300 dinar if I could get it for 1160 dinar by simply converting to dollars first (or Euros, etc.).  This will stabilize the market rate immediately and begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Second, the exchange of foreign currency for dinars will allow the CBI to destroy the dinars turned in (admittedly for a similar draw down on their reserves, however).  The result will put similar pressure on the market rate to begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Of course the exchange will be monitored and limited so that reserves don’t disappear. The CBI has ample reserves in comparison to the current money supply of dinars.  They could afford to give up even 1/3 of their reserves and still have over 100% coverage of their money supply.  …this is a prudent and simple way to draw down the money supply without affecting day to day commerce…because they will be exchanging with “travelers,” people who are doing so not for daily commerce but to go to a foreign country and spend the foreign currency.  This will therefore have no affect on liquidity within the country.   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

MadDScout(Dinar Guru) –   Article:  “The Association of Private Banks appoints a temporary chairman”   Quote:  “the president of the association was accused by specialists on many charges, including providing false information to the Central Bank of Iraq to achieve personal benefits…”  I like this one because it speaks to internal house cleaning…House cleaning within the banking association.  It says that eventually being corrupt will be of no gain.

NOW MOSUL IS NOT ENOUGH HE WANTS ALL OF IRAQ! I JUST PRAY WE HAVE THE REFORMS BY THE END OF JUNE.]  Abadi never said such a thing – in fact, he’s not in charge of international support and acceptance. The IMF, WB and UN is [are?]. If anyone has anything to say along these lines – it’s not Abadi.  Nowhere has Abadi said he wants all of Iraq before he institutes monetary and currency reforms.  In fact, just last week one article inferred they are already well into the process of monetary reform. These are documented facts.

Iraqi forces take over 90% of western Mosul’s Zanjili, push closer to Old City

Iraqi Federal Police forces took are almost taking over Zanjili district in western Mosul, pushing closer to the Islamic State-held Old City, the service’s commander sid Friday.

Lt. Gen. Shaker Jawdat said his forces were controlling 90 percent of Zanjili district, and were advancing along 10 kilometers in neighboring al-Shifa. Both districts are the last two around the medieval Old City, IS’s last bastion in Mosul from where the group declared in 2014 the establishment of its rule in Iraq and Syria.

______________________________________________________________

MadDScout (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The parliamentary economy supports the recent central bank measures to regulate the sale window of the currency”  Najib is saying the “economy is heating up”, and that the Parliament Economic Committee is in support of the strides the CBI has taken to organize and educate those banks taking part in the foreign currency sale, and this conducted in cooperation with the IMF…   Najib confirmed that there were banks who had to rectify their situations, in order to stay a part of the currency sale. She is part of Economic Committee.  In this way the Central Bank is moving forward on reform starting with the currency sale window.  They are moving forward!  I like that reform starts at “the currency window”.  These banks who are “rectifying” their situation are the exact type of institutions that were mentioned and bring the overall score down on that thing that is monetary reform.  Rectification will help to move the wheel forward.

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   According to the CBI website the Gross Foreign Assets at the CBI as of May 25, 2017 totaled $53.4 billion.  Saleh has stated more than once that the dinar is or will be one of the strongest currencies in the world and a reserve currency:  “Saleh said the Agency (news) said on Saturday: The dinar today has become a strong and like a hard currency through the Bank’s policy Central control of the cash raised in the local market.  He explained:  that the dinar covered in hard currency at a rate of more than (100%), and this rare condition, and has a cash reserve large hard currency than for (60) billion dollars retained by the face of difficult circumstances that may occur in the country, giving the power of the dinar against foreign currency.  This statement was made in 2012 but he has reiterated it several times.     [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   …In February of 2014 he [CBI’s Saleh] said this:  He said the appearance of Mohammed Saleh told the “time”, that “the Iraqi dinar is protected range is strong, and the cover of foreign currency is very high unless they are used for the purposes of reserves dedicated to the support of the Iraqi dinar.”  Admittedly he is looking to the future when he makes these statements.  However, he is a member of the planet and an economist. Thus… “There isn’t an economist or currency evaluator on the planet that states Iraq is or will be the strongest currency in the world” is a bit of hyperbole.  The dinars used to purchase foreign currency go directly to the CBI from the banks, since the banks have to get the foreign currency from the CBI in exchange for the dinars. Therefore, no one is saying that it “go[es] back to the banks to begin the cycle all over again.”   [reference Guru mike’s post 6-17-2017….stay tuned for more of this spirited debate]   [post 2 of 2]

Iraqi armed forces announce progress in Mosul campaign, say district north of old city captured

Iraqi forces on Tuesday reported progress in the U.S.-backed campaign to dislodge Islamic State from Mosul, announcing the capture of a district just north the city’s historic center.

With the loss of the Zanjili neighborhood, the enclave still held by Islamic State in the northern Iraqi city has shrunk to two districts along the western banks of the Tigris river – the densely populated Old City center and the Medical City.

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The central bank prepares banks and transfer 25 million per month”   Here is my take on this important development.  It occurred to me that what we are seeing here is a plan to use some of the reserves to reduce the money supply in Iraq. The article makes clear that there is not a corruption problem.  However, they are still putting some limits on the exchange (dinars for foreign currency).  Furthermore…the CBI is making it clear up front that the banks will not be allowed to take advantage of the public who wish to purchase foreign currency.  This means that they will be forced to give the foreign currency at the official rate rather than the market rate.  As word of this gets out there will be more and more people who will want to surrender their dinars at that rate, thus saving many dinars by getting the foreign currency below the market rate.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   This will have two effects:  first, it will put pressure on the market rate to come in line with the official rate.  Why would I buy something with 1300 dinar if I could get it for 1160 dinar by simply converting to dollars first (or Euros, etc.).  This will stabilize the market rate immediately and begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Second, the exchange of foreign currency for dinars will allow the CBI to destroy the dinars turned in (admittedly for a similar draw down on their reserves, however).  The result will put similar pressure on the market rate to begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Of course the exchange will be monitored and limited so that reserves don’t disappear. The CBI has ample reserves in comparison to the current money supply of dinars.  They could afford to give up even 1/3 of their reserves and still have over 100% coverage of their money supply.  …this is a prudent and simple way to draw down the money supply without affecting day to day commerce…because they will be exchanging with “travelers,” people who are doing so not for daily commerce but to go to a foreign country and spend the foreign currency.  This will therefore have no affect on liquidity within the country.   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

NOW MOSUL IS NOT ENOUGH HE WANTS ALL OF IRAQ! I JUST PRAY WE HAVE THE REFORMS BY THE END OF JUNE.]  Abadi never said such a thing – in fact, he’s not in charge of international support and acceptance. The IMF, WB and UN is [are?]. If anyone has anything to say along these lines – it’s not Abadi.  Nowhere has Abadi said he wants all of Iraq before he institutes monetary and currency reforms.  In fact, just last week one article inferred they are already well into the process of monetary reform. These are documented facts.

Iraqi forces take over 90% of western Mosul’s Zanjili, push closer to Old City

Iraqi Federal Police forces took are almost taking over Zanjili district in western Mosul, pushing closer to the Islamic State-held Old City, the service’s commander sid Friday.

Lt. Gen. Shaker Jawdat said his forces were controlling 90 percent of Zanjili district, and were advancing along 10 kilometers in neighboring al-Shifa. Both districts are the last two around the medieval Old City, IS’s last bastion in Mosul from where the group declared in 2014 the establishment of its rule in Iraq and Syria.

She is part of Economic Committee.  In this way the Central Bank is moving forward on reform starting with the currency sale window.  They are moving forward!  I like that reform starts at “the currency window”.  These banks who are “rectifying” their situation are the exact type of institutions that were mentioned and bring the overall score down on that thing that is monetary reform.  Rectification will help to move the wheel forward.

Abadi: Soon we will announce the complete restoration of Mosul

Prime Minister Haidar al-Abadi said that Saudi officials stressed that the strength of Iraq is in the interest of Riyadh, adding that in a few days we will announce the restoration of Mosul in full.

Abadi said during a press briefing today on his tour to a number of neighboring countries. He pointed out that these countries praised the efforts of Iraq, especially in combating the organization of the preachers and the victories achieved by the security forces, adding that Iraq has returned to its real position among the countries of the world.

With all the speculation that the banking system must open up to perpetuate international activities to support global investment, this new website to me is much more polished, professional and institutional. We could be getting closer.

Iraq’s army said it encircled Islamic State’s stronghold in the Old City of Mosul on Tuesday after taking over an area to the north of the territory.

MilitiaMan (Dinar Guru) –   The UNSC Doc published just under three weeks ago this Friday told us all, that there was going to be an action within June 2016 [2017 ?]. That action has a time line by and or before the end of the month. That action is a reaction to things accomplished or that action wouldn’t have even been mentioned.  The UNSC escrow account is being funded or well closed out if you will. End game, symbolically. That has meaning that is profound!  The Oil for Food program is to be done and gone for ever…  I may be wrong, but, that imo is Chapter 7 done in regards to MR and acceptance of Article 8 is in effect or will be, once in synchronization.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –    [The debate continues….]   Each of us is looking at a different set of numbers. In any case, I would personally take Keywords at his word, regardless of the numbers.  Saleh’s statement is sort of like Trump’s “I hope” statement. “Like a hard curency” is not the same as “world reserve currency” in my view.  I believe that, unless Planet X wipes us out in the next year or so, the dinar will become a world recognized currency. When is another question entirely. I started this over 10 years ago and am still waiting for it to just start, let alone finish.  [reference Guru mike’s post 6-20-2017….will the debate continue?]

MilitiaMan (Dinar Guru) –   The UNSC Doc published just under three weeks ago this Friday told us all, that there was going to be an action within June 2016 [2017 ?]. That action has a time line by and or before the end of the month. That action is a reaction to things accomplished or that action wouldn’t have even been mentioned.  The UNSC escrow account is being funded or well closed out if you will. End game, symbolically. That has meaning that is profound!  The Oil for Food program is to be done and gone for ever…  I may be wrong, but, that imo is Chapter 7 done in regards to MR and acceptance of Article 8 is in effect or will be, once in synchronization.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –   …it’s just about time to start watching things pick back up... Ramadan is over in just a few days, and we’ll see pretty shortly how this rodeo is going to proceed!   [Ramadan ends on Saturday and then there’s Eid Al-Fitr for what? 3 days?]  Eid al-Fitr is not as much of a hindrance to an RV, but that’s debatable I guess.

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –    [The debate continues….]   Each of us is looking at a different set of numbers. In any case, I would personally take Keywords at his word, regardless of the numbers.  Saleh’s statement is sort of like Trump’s “I hope” statement. “Like a hard curency” is not the same as “world reserve currency” in my view.  I believe that, unless Planet X wipes us out in the next year or so, the dinar will become a world recognized currency. When is another question entirely. I started this over 10 years ago and am still waiting for it to just start, let alone finish.  [reference Guru mike’s post 6-20-2017….will the debate continue?]

Mosul on a date with an Iraqi victory

The Secretary General of the Democratic Peace Rally, Mohamed Iqbal Omar al-Sidli, on Sunday praised the important progress achieved by our armed forces in various formations in the squares of Mosul.

Iqbal said in a statement issued by his press office that “the storming of the old city of Mosul, which represents the last stronghold of the terrorist, is a welcome sign of the completion of the liberation of the province completely from the clutches of criminal gangs.” Drawn by the sacrifices and heroic heroism of our fighters. ”

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   According to the CBI website the Gross Foreign Assets at the CBI as of May 25, 2017 totaled $53.4 billion.  Saleh has stated more than once that the dinar is or will be one of the strongest currencies in the world and a reserve currency:  “Saleh said the Agency (news) said on Saturday: The dinar today has become a strong and like a hard currency through the Bank’s policy Central control of the cash raised in the local market.  He explained:  that the dinar covered in hard currency at a rate of more than (100%), and this rare condition, and has a cash reserve large hard currency than for (60) billion dollars retained by the face of difficult circumstances that may occur in the country, giving the power of the dinar against foreign currency.  This statement was made in 2012 but he has reiterated it several times.     [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   …In February of 2014 he [CBI’s Saleh] said this:  He said the appearance of Mohammed Saleh told the “time”, that “the Iraqi dinar is protected range is strong, and the cover of foreign currency is very high unless they are used for the purposes of reserves dedicated to the support of the Iraqi dinar.”  Admittedly he is looking to the future when he makes these statements.  However, he is a member of the planet and an economist. Thus… “There isn’t an economist or currency evaluator on the planet that states Iraq is or will be the strongest currency in the world” is a bit of hyperbole.  The dinars used to purchase foreign currency go directly to the CBI from the banks, since the banks have to get the foreign currency from the CBI in exchange for the dinars. Therefore, no one is saying that it “go[es] back to the banks to begin the cycle all over again.”   [reference Guru mike’s post 6-17-2017….stay tuned for more of this spirited debate]   [post 2 of 2]

Iraqi armed forces announce progress in Mosul campaign, say district north of old city captured

Iraqi forces on Tuesday reported progress in the U.S.-backed campaign to dislodge Islamic State from Mosul, announcing the capture of a district just north the city’s historic center.

With the loss of the Zanjili neighborhood, the enclave still held by Islamic State in the northern Iraqi city has shrunk to two districts along the western banks of the Tigris river – the densely populated Old City center and the Medical City.

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The central bank prepares banks and transfer 25 million per month”   Here is my take on this important development.  It occurred to me that what we are seeing here is a plan to use some of the reserves to reduce the money supply in Iraq. The article makes clear that there is not a corruption problem.  However, they are still putting some limits on the exchange (dinars for foreign currency).  Furthermore…the CBI is making it clear up front that the banks will not be allowed to take advantage of the public who wish to purchase foreign currency.  This means that they will be forced to give the foreign currency at the official rate rather than the market rate.  As word of this gets out there will be more and more people who will want to surrender their dinars at that rate, thus saving many dinars by getting the foreign currency below the market rate.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   This will have two effects:  first, it will put pressure on the market rate to come in line with the official rate.  Why would I buy something with 1300 dinar if I could get it for 1160 dinar by simply converting to dollars first (or Euros, etc.).  This will stabilize the market rate immediately and begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Second, the exchange of foreign currency for dinars will allow the CBI to destroy the dinars turned in (admittedly for a similar draw down on their reserves, however).  The result will put similar pressure on the market rate to begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Of course the exchange will be monitored and limited so that reserves don’t disappear. The CBI has ample reserves in comparison to the current money supply of dinars.  They could afford to give up even 1/3 of their reserves and still have over 100% coverage of their money supply.  …this is a prudent and simple way to draw down the money supply without affecting day to day commerce…because they will be exchanging with “travelers,” people who are doing so not for daily commerce but to go to a foreign country and spend the foreign currency.  This will therefore have no affect on liquidity within the country.   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

This struggle will come to an end. At some point they will do something with this currency. When that happens – you are positioned to enjoy the benefit…and that is probably the most encouraging you have heard me in a while.

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –    [The debate continues….]   Each of us is looking at a different set of numbers. In any case, I would personally take Keywords at his word, regardless of the numbers.  Saleh’s statement is sort of like Trump’s “I hope” statement. “Like a hard curency” is not the same as “world reserve currency” in my view.  I believe that, unless Planet X wipes us out in the next year or so, the dinar will become a world recognized currency. When is another question entirely. I started this over 10 years ago and am still waiting for it to just start, let alone finish.  [reference Guru mike’s post 6-20-2017….will the debate continue?]

Iqbal said in a statement issued by his press office that “the storming of the old city of Mosul, which represents the last stronghold of the terrorist, is a welcome sign of the completion of the liberation of the province completely from the clutches of criminal gangs.” Drawn by the sacrifices and heroic heroism of our fighters. ”

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   According to the CBI website the Gross Foreign Assets at the CBI as of May 25, 2017 totaled $53.4 billion.  Saleh has stated more than once that the dinar is or will be one of the strongest currencies in the world and a reserve currency:  “Saleh said the Agency (news) said on Saturday: The dinar today has become a strong and like a hard currency through the Bank’s policy Central control of the cash raised in the local market.  He explained:  that the dinar covered in hard currency at a rate of more than (100%), and this rare condition, and has a cash reserve large hard currency than for (60) billion dollars retained by the face of difficult circumstances that may occur in the country, giving the power of the dinar against foreign currency.  This statement was made in 2012 but he has reiterated it several times.     [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   …In February of 2014 he [CBI’s Saleh] said this:  He said the appearance of Mohammed Saleh told the “time”, that “the Iraqi dinar is protected range is strong, and the cover of foreign currency is very high unless they are used for the purposes of reserves dedicated to the support of the Iraqi dinar.”  Admittedly he is looking to the future when he makes these statements.  However, he is a member of the planet and an economist. Thus… “There isn’t an economist or currency evaluator on the planet that states Iraq is or will be the strongest currency in the world” is a bit of hyperbole.  The dinars used to purchase foreign currency go directly to the CBI from the banks, since the banks have to get the foreign currency from the CBI in exchange for the dinars. Therefore, no one is saying that it “go[es] back to the banks to begin the cycle all over again.”   [reference Guru mike’s post 6-17-2017….stay tuned for more of this spirited debate]   [post 2 of 2]

Iraqi armed forces announce progress in Mosul campaign, say district north of old city captured

Iraqi forces on Tuesday reported progress in the U.S.-backed campaign to dislodge Islamic State from Mosul, announcing the capture of a district just north the city’s historic center.

With the loss of the Zanjili neighborhood, the enclave still held by Islamic State in the northern Iraqi city has shrunk to two districts along the western banks of the Tigris river – the densely populated Old City center and the Medical City.

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The central bank prepares banks and transfer 25 million per month”   Here is my take on this important development.  It occurred to me that what we are seeing here is a plan to use some of the reserves to reduce the money supply in Iraq. The article makes clear that there is not a corruption problem.  However, they are still putting some limits on the exchange (dinars for foreign currency).  Furthermore…the CBI is making it clear up front that the banks will not be allowed to take advantage of the public who wish to purchase foreign currency.  This means that they will be forced to give the foreign currency at the official rate rather than the market rate.  As word of this gets out there will be more and more people who will want to surrender their dinars at that rate, thus saving many dinars by getting the foreign currency below the market rate.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   This will have two effects:  first, it will put pressure on the market rate to come in line with the official rate.  Why would I buy something with 1300 dinar if I could get it for 1160 dinar by simply converting to dollars first (or Euros, etc.).  This will stabilize the market rate immediately and begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Second, the exchange of foreign currency for dinars will allow the CBI to destroy the dinars turned in (admittedly for a similar draw down on their reserves, however).  The result will put similar pressure on the market rate to begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Of course the exchange will be monitored and limited so that reserves don’t disappear. The CBI has ample reserves in comparison to the current money supply of dinars.  They could afford to give up even 1/3 of their reserves and still have over 100% coverage of their money supply.  …this is a prudent and simple way to draw down the money supply without affecting day to day commerce…because they will be exchanging with “travelers,” people who are doing so not for daily commerce but to go to a foreign country and spend the foreign currency.  This will therefore have no affect on liquidity within the country.   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

NOW MOSUL IS NOT ENOUGH HE WANTS ALL OF IRAQ! I JUST PRAY WE HAVE THE REFORMS BY THE END OF JUNE.]  Abadi never said such a thing – in fact, he’s not in charge of international support and acceptance. The IMF, WB and UN is [are?]. If anyone has anything to say along these lines – it’s not Abadi.  Nowhere has Abadi said he wants all of Iraq before he institutes monetary and currency reforms.  In fact, just last week one article inferred they are already well into the process of monetary reform. These are documented facts.

Iraqi forces take over 90% of western Mosul’s Zanjili, push closer to Old City

Iraqi Federal Police forces took are almost taking over Zanjili district in western Mosul, pushing closer to the Islamic State-held Old City, the service’s commander sid Friday.

Lt. Gen. Shaker Jawdat said his forces were controlling 90 percent of Zanjili district, and were advancing along 10 kilometers in neighboring al-Shifa. Both districts are the last two around the medieval Old City, IS’s last bastion in Mosul from where the group declared in 2014 the establishment of its rule in Iraq and Syria.

MadDScout (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The parliamentary economy supports the recent central bank measures to regulate the sale window of the currency”  Najib is saying the “economy is heating up”, and that the Parliament Economic Committee is in support of the strides the CBI has taken to organize and educate those banks taking part in the foreign currency sale, and this conducted in cooperation with the IMF…   Najib confirmed that there were banks who had to rectify their situations, in order to stay a part of the currency sale. She is part of Economic Committee.  In this way the Central Bank is moving forward on reform starting with the currency sale window.  They are moving forward!  I like that reform starts at “the currency window”.  These banks who are “rectifying” their situation are the exact type of institutions that were mentioned and bring the overall score down on that thing that is monetary reform.  Rectification will help to move the wheel forward.

Iraqi Forces Resume Push into Mosul’s Old City from Southern Front

The forces backed by warplanes began to attack from the southern front on Monday, said the head of the Iraqi Federal Police Lieutenant General Shaker Jawdat. Seven Islamic State (IS) militants were killed as a result.

Paramilitary troops say crossing Iraqi borders requires parliament approval

The Shia-led paramilitary troops have said that crossing the Iraqi borders to other countries requires parliament approval in advance.

In press remarks, Ahmed al-Assadi, spokesperson of al-Hashd al-Shaabi (Popular Mobilization Units) said “armed troops either from army, al-Hashd al-Shaabi or the army’s elite Counter-Terrorism Service crossing the Iraqi borders requires voting by Iraqi parliament as constitution does not allow intervention in other countries’ affairs.”

He considered that “talks about this issue while the country is fighting and clearing the provinces from Islamic State is unreal.”

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –   […is it better for Iraq to rebuild itself at the present rate or at a re- established rate?]   …at this point and time, it does not matter what the exchange rate is regarding rebuilding…since the primary source of revenue is oil sales (95%) which is paid in dollars.  And since the dinar is not globally convertible, Iraq pays for goods in dollars.  So in that sense they are on the same playing field we are on in the US when we pay for goods.   The real benefit comes when the CBI can begin to raise the value to offset inflationary pressure created by investors and investment along with meeting  IMF Article VIII compliance.  The result will eventually give the citizens a better life, greater purchasing power and most importantly the ability for the CBI to keep its dollars and pay in dinars.

UN envoy to Iraq: Liberation of Mosul imminent, ISIS days numbered

With the liberation of Mosul imminent, the international community must maintain a dual focus on defeating the remaining ISIS terrorists in Iraq, and on working towards post-conflict security and reconstruction, the United Nations envoy for Iraq Jan Kubis told the Security Council

Kubis went on to stress that the imminent defeat of ISIS must also provide an urgent impetus to address the needs of minorities, especially their ability to return to their homes

The return of all internally displaced persons to all liberated areas must be a top priority as should tackling increasing incidents of kidnapping and paying sustained attention to upcoming elections in 2017 and 2018

The announcement from Abadi will show power and authority……..and hopefully he can offer Iraq a vision with something tangible……… So without a single doubt there is a timing strategy to the final announcement to Mosul….

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –   …we all know the dinar is pegged to the dollar…   […wouldn’t Iraq have to/want to be in Article VIII compliance before they unpegged?]   I can only speculate based on the IMF docs that I have read.  But I would assume so…because the raising of the value of the dinar is directly related to investment in the market economy. And without Article VIII, there is no foreign investment.  Remember, the key to this is the activation of the CBI’s Capital Account which is the pipeline of sorts for money flowing in and out of Iraq. Once in Article VIII, foreign investors/ investment will begin to participate in rebuilding and privatizing Iraq. Money will be deposited into bank accounts, flow through the CBI’s Capital Account and if the dinar is not pegged, will begin to move upwards to offset inflationary pressure created by the influx of economic activity (thus the Balassa-Samuelson effect)... There are no shortcuts. The CBI needs to get in compliance with the IMF so they can transition out of Article XIV. They need deposit insurance. Once that happens, we should see things begin to move fast.

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –  I’m watching this OPEC situation like a HAWK… this is getting serious!  We all view the word “soon” with a bit of disdain, but it’s starting to taste a little better every day.   This rolled across my desk bright and early this morning:  “Optimism ahead of OPEC meeting drives U.S. crude oil back above $50”  But the real reason for this post is to clarify the next OPEC meeting date. I was mistaken earlier this week, the meeting is not on the 27th… it’s on the 25th. Ramadan starts on the 26th.  Could the 25th or 26th be our day?  It’s possible, if Iraq is given a clear exemption from the OPEC oil production deal (the same deal that Russia and Saudi Arabia have already agreed to).

BGG (Dinar Guru) –   I am very excited about the current state of things. I am very excited about the next short time frame… I think we are in an incredible window of time right now…and I do feel – if things advance as they have been – we could be very, very close. Maybe not today or tomorrow, but legitimately CLOSE. Unlike ever before.  (keep in mind – we have been close before – the CBI had planned on 2013? sometime and put it off). According to the SIGR Report.  We are close.  REAL CLOSE.

MadDScout (Dinar Guru) –   Article quotes:   “…Saleh, financial adviser to the Prime Minister has proposed the establishment of a bank to finance the trade of the private sector contribution of commercial banks…”  “Abdul Basset Turki stressed that the continued clinging to resolve the economic crisis through Iraq through borrowing and reducing public spending without changing the exchange rate of the Iraqi dinar in securing revenues to cover the current spending of the state will quickly lead to further economic recession and erosion of foreign assets, especially the reserve of the Central Bank of Iraq.”  Both Saleh and Turki laid out some very coherent guidelines.  It will take wisdom and the “want” to do it.  Not all these suggestions are going to be easy but are how market economies work.  [Do you think it will happen soon after Mosul?]  I like to believe so.  They have a very good opportunity right now as stated…the time may not always be such.

Iraqi forces retake Rawshan area in western Mosul: command

The Iraqi command said Friday that government forces recaptured an area in western Mosul as they advanced near the last Islamic State strongholds in the region.

The Joint Operations Command said the army’s elite Counter-Terrorism Service recaptured the Rawshan area in northwestern Mosul, raising Iraqi flags at the area.
The development comes as Iraqi forces moved through a new front of operations targeting the IS-held, strategic Old City, having besieged the area futilely for weeks.

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru)   It should be noted, and kept in mind, that Ramadan this year starts on the evening of Friday May 26 and goes through Sunday June 25.   That’s 9 days from now.  Those of you that have been traveling this road with me for years know that I have always been VERY adamant that “nothing gets done during Ramadan”… but I’m starting to lean a little to the left on that commitment. There is just TOO MUCH happening right now! There are a couple key elements to this…that will make me go “Full Buzzy” in spite of the upcoming holiday that traditionally yields 0 “real” progress for anything in Iraq For some months now, I’ve been very optimistic about Iraq’s ISIS situation. Over the last few days, thi -s has only increased.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

This is the exact area where we were stagnant last year. This year is different – the consistency of these articles lately is a telling sign. “The Ministry of Commerce promises Iraqis Surprise in the month of Ramadan  May 13, 2017”  New ration cards to be issued next week. Could these be tied into the upcoming changes in the entire Iraqi banking system, which will ultimately incorporate new currency, ATMs, and a new rate? It’s a possible “gateway” move. For once, I actually agree that something might get done during Ramadan. *shock* *GASP!*   [post 2 of 2]

On May 9th, the Trump administration made public its plan to provide the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) with substantial heavy weaponry. The announcement signals Washington’s decision to rely on the SDF, which is dominated by the Kurdish Democratic Union Party (PYD), for the operation to liberate Raqqa from Islamic State (ISIS) control.

Fight to retake Mosul in ‘final stages,’ US envoy says

HAMAM AL-ALIL, IRAQ — The fight to retake Mosul from the Islamic State group is approaching its “final stages,” a senior U.S. official said Monday.

Brett McGurk, special presidential envoy for the global coalition against the IS, said Iraqi forces are “completely defeating” IS in one of the most difficult urban battles since World War II. But local Iraqi officials say they will need more funding from the U.S. and others in the international community to rebuild in territory recently retaken from the extremists.

McGurk spoke to The Associated Press from a water treatment plant south of Mosul where Iraqi forces closely backed by the U.S.-led coalition are slowly closing in on the remaining cluster of IS-held neighborhoods in the city’s west.

Mosul battle will be finished within days – Iraqi army chief

Iraqi security forces are only days away from completing the operation to recapture Mosul from ISIS, the BBC quoted army’s chief of staff as saying on Friday.

Lt Gen Othman al-Ghanimi said he hoped the group would be defeated in the city before the Islamic holy month of Ramadan begins on 26 May.

Recent gains in the north meant the remaining militants were being squeezed into an ever smaller area, he added.

G-Lin (Dinar Guru) –  Article: “ATMs for MasterCard card users”  Quote: “the project will be completed within the next few years after the final approvals of the implementation conditions have been completed legally”   I’m not too concerned about that 3 year mention. This art. is a very encouraging one. It looks as though Iraq has already accomplished huge things in the banking industry. We are right in the middle of Iraq going digital. E money. And IMO those ATM’s will not slow things down one bit. They apparently have already connected to international banks. That is huge. I think the majorities of salaries are being paid on smart cards and that will encourage the peeps to warm up to banks and bring in those 3 0’s notes. Once they pull in the liquidity under the mattresses I think they will bring out the LD’s. I don’t know when that will be of course, but they seem to be on a fast track currently.  At least in the banking industry. And that is exactly what IMF has told them repeatedly to do. Finally they are complying.

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –   [What will happen to the other major currencies when the CBI RV’s the IQD/USD exchange rate? The countries using the EUR, the GBP, the CHF, the JPY, and the CNY all have international corporations invested in Iraqi oil with contracts based on today’s exchange rates.  How will a radical upward IQD/USD RV (which effectively decreases the value of the USD against the IQD) affect the EUR/USD and the GBP/USD and the CHF/USD and the JPY/USD and the CNY/USD exchange rates?  Will these other major global currencies also be devalued and what in your opinion will that do to an already stressed global economy?]  This is a great question, because it opens up the floor to discuss how an RV is really a zero-sum game, mostly because we are talking about a fiat currency. When the FED prints more USD, we don’t actually gain that money.  It just dilutes the dollar a little bit more.  IQD, and an RV of the currency, works the same way, just on a global scale. My opinion is that almost every other currency will take a slight hit, and then rebound once the IQD rate stabilizes, and within about a month all currencies will be back to normal… except the IQD will be dramatically different than it was a month prior.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –   Iraq is doing what is asked of them by the IMF and WB (though 3-6 months late) to prepare the banking system for international integration with the financial system.  Iraq needed to make these changes, along with several others (including reducing the spread)  to set the stage for acceptance into IMF Article VIII. Remember the goal here as stated in the SBA is to accept Article VIII to “create a favorable business climate” for investment.  Accepting Article VIII will give freedom of movement of capital in and out of Iraq (so investors can get profits out), make the dinar convertible worldwide through the banking system, and most importantly allow the CBI to stop the daily auctions and let the market and world set the value for the dinar (they will stop the peg).  This is all about creating the conditions for a market economy.

tman23 (Dinar Guru) –  …Revaluation (Definition):  A calculated adjustment to a country’s official exchange rate relative to a chosen baseline. The baseline can be anything from wage rates to the price of gold to a foreign currency. In a fixed exchange rate regime, only a decision by a country’s government (i.e. central bank) can alter the official value of the currency.  Re-denomination has nothing to do with Re-valuation. When a currency is redenominated the central bank of that country will reissue notes at a decided ratio for both speculators and its citizens.  For ex., If you have a 1000 INR note and Reserve Bank of India (RBI) redenominated at a ratio 1:10 then RBI will take your old 1000 INR note and issue you new 100 INR whose value stays the same. The net value of old 1000 INR will be same as new 100 INR.   [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Nothing changes on that front – they just get more for it.  It’s not costing the CBI a DIME!!   …a Dinar is still worth a Dinar – post RV.  Iraqis are not going to be POURING INTO BANKS to exchange their Dinar for some other foreign currency… why would they?   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

That is the key number…there is NO RELIABLE INFO on this… even the CBI’s internal people can only estimate… and they don’t think it is that much. Could be as low as 3 Trillion – maybe less now…So – the real lesson is not to base complex analysis on wide gaps in actual information. The 25 Trillion number is likely a flawed assumption… AND if they get “international support and acceptance” – that 3-6 Trillion could even get held in various Treasuries as “Foreign currency reserves” – JUST LIKE the IRAQ CENTRAL BANK DOES WITH OTHERS.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]

Iraq, US in talks to keep American troop presence after IS

Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi is in talks with the Trump administration to keep American troops in Iraq after the fight against the Islamic State group in the country is concluded, according to a U.S. official and an official from the Iraqi government.

Both officials underlined that the discussions are ongoing and that nothing is finalized.

But the talks point to a consensus by both governments that, in contrast to the U.S. withdrawal in 2011, a longer-term presence of American troops in Iraq is needed to ensure that an insurgency does not bubble up again once the militants are driven out.

What about the subject of the deletion of zeros and the reason for the delay?
1) Security – control of the state (ie; Mosul)… CERTAINLY PREVENTS THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PROJECT.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “World Bank of Iraq: Economic reforms need to get to the head of an integrated financial system”  Quote:   “…the World Bank representatives have indicated that economic reforms represent the need to get to the head of an integrated system for the management of the financial operation of the state at the federal and local level.”   I have stated it over and over, you cannot have a market economy without the banking system first opening to the world so investors may get profits out.  That requires the CBI to get in compliance, move to Article VIII and get the dinar off the peg.  As a result, investors will bring money to Iraq through the CBI’s capital account which will allow the CBI to raise the value to offset inflationary pressure created in the economy.  First and foremost, the banking system must be activated.  Good to see the IMF and WB telling Iraq to get going.

The World Bank confirms its support for Iraq’s economic reforms and development through an integrated financial management system

The World Bank on Saturday confirmed its support for Iraq’s economic reforms and development through an integrated financial management system, while welcoming the steps taken by the Iraqi government in the field of resource management and the crystallization of reform visions .

The Ministry of Finance said in a statement issued on the sidelines of a joint meeting between an Iraqi delegation headed by Finance Minister Abdul Razzaq al-Issa and in the presence of Prime Minister’s Advisor appearance of Mohammed Saleh and a number of officials of the Ministry of Finance and the World Bank team and representatives in Baghdad in the spring meetings of the IMF and the World Bank in Washington, , “Appointed Iraq News” that “representatives of the World Bank indicated that economic reforms are a major necessity to reach an integrated system to manage the financial process of the state at the federal and local level .”

DayTrader, a News Researcher for DinarUpdates.com, recently had some interesting commentary.

Here are his thoughts:

Article 140 is much more complex than many realize. If you read Article 140 in the Iraq constitution, it refers to Article 58 of the Law of Administration for the State of Iraq for the Transitional Period that outlines all the steps that must be completed. This was a document constructed by Paul Bremmer to be used until a permanent constitution could be developed and ratified by Iraq. Article 58 states:

Is this then telling us they are removing 1 zero and not 3? Not sure what to think.]  Could just be moving toward increased value.  I highly doubt they “take off one zero” since the whole “three zeros project” isn’t about nominal value – or moving the decimal point. It’s about increasing the value.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –   Article:  “Jubouri Kubiche: The victory of the security forces returned to the political stability of the country”   ...if Iraq was waiting for this (as they have said over and over) then yes, it should be a sign of good things to come.  That being said, I continue to believe the CBI must meet compliance with the IMF before anything currency related can occur… and they are not in compliance.

Loop (Dinar Guru) –   Article:  “Head of the IMF mission’s (term) interest peg to the dollar rather than a large reduction of the Iraqi economy”  The head of the IMF mission in Iraq is answering questions.  THe IMF is saying that to decrease the value of the dinar against the dollar would only lead to inflation and that the CBI has the needed reserves to support the economy.   [we certainly dont want it devalued any more. It won’t. THere is no reason for it. Their economy is expanding so why on earth would the throw it into reverse?  Just like I do not think a float is going to happen.  They also are saying that there is no issue with the debt that they have taken on to support the country as long as the follow the process as outlined in the SBA.

Most of the Iraqi Central Bank steps are subject to political and legal environment of the country , especially in regard to the deletion of zeros that counted specialists in the earlier trend sensitive and dangerous may still be , but the central remains the most important institution in terms of the need to adjust the financial management in light of the financial crisis experienced by the the Iraqi economy, which must have to deal with dilemmas , whether with regard to the citizen or the work of the central bank itself.

1bobby (Dinar Guru) –   Article:  “Office: Abadi agreed with the delegation of the Kurdistan Region to remove obstacles that prevented the activation of Article 140”  The infamous Art 140 is in the Constitution, just not activated and or implemented. Now 140 does not cover all of Iraq, just Kirkuk and the disputed territories, Kikuk being ground zero.  With Abadi agreeing to remove all obstacles to implement 140 is a HUGE step forward and something the Kurds can work with. Now while there are numerous cities/districts covered under 140, Kirkuk is the main concern. Kirkuk sits atop one of the largest oil reserves in Iraq, most reports estimate over 40 billion barrels of oil.  …If Abadi is willing to remove the obstacles, then the Kurds will control Kirkuk. This action does not require a Parliamentary vote since it’s already in the Constitution. What Baghdad wants is what the constitution states “All oil within Iraq belongs to all Iraqi’s“…So if the Kurds get what they want, Baghdad will want all oil proceeds to flow thru Baghdad and then %’s will be distributed accordingly.  We’ll just have to let this play out and see what they do, not what they say.

MadDScout (Dinar Guru) –  [What’s left before NEEDED to be taken off programmed rate?]  Answer: That is what we are watching for. But from CBI (Alak’s) view, they are looking for stability…social, political, economic, security, take your pick as to how much of each of those goes into the criterion they are looking toward.

MadDScout (Dinar Guru) –  [We have always heard when article 140 and HCL are put into place and activated we should see the rate within hours of implementation. We know Mosul is a key part. Can they implement HCL and Article 140 on a program rate?]   Answer:   That theory is old and unfounded, and tends to put events in the wrong order, according to what we know right now. Being as this is never mentioned in any of Alaks statements when asked about what the CBI needs to make full monetary reforms, I have put it out of my vocabulary.  As to the third part of your question, can they implement 140 at program rate, I think it is so far in the future (Art140) they will have a “rate” by then. But IMO one doesn’t equal the other. They are stand alone issues, unhinged one from another. Rate is only important to us.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “Abadi: Two months separating Iraq’s exit from Chapter VII”  [It would seem that Iraq’s removal of Chapter 7 would occur before the dinar becomes marketable and begins to float…]    …though it’s important for Iraq to have it’s own currency once sovereign, I do not think they are directly related. When the dinar floats is a more of a decision of the CBI based on monetary policy. IMO, I do not expect it to begin until just before foreign investment begins to pour into Iraq.

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   According to the CBI website the Gross Foreign Assets at the CBI as of May 25, 2017 totaled $53.4 billion.  Saleh has stated more than once that the dinar is or will be one of the strongest currencies in the world and a reserve currency:  “Saleh said the Agency (news) said on Saturday: The dinar today has become a strong and like a hard currency through the Bank’s policy Central control of the cash raised in the local market.  He explained:  that the dinar covered in hard currency at a rate of more than (100%), and this rare condition, and has a cash reserve large hard currency than for (60) billion dollars retained by the face of difficult circumstances that may occur in the country, giving the power of the dinar against foreign currency.  This statement was made in 2012 but he has reiterated it several times.     [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   …In February of 2014 he [CBI’s Saleh] said this:  He said the appearance of Mohammed Saleh told the “time”, that “the Iraqi dinar is protected range is strong, and the cover of foreign currency is very high unless they are used for the purposes of reserves dedicated to the support of the Iraqi dinar.”  Admittedly he is looking to the future when he makes these statements.  However, he is a member of the planet and an economist. Thus… “There isn’t an economist or currency evaluator on the planet that states Iraq is or will be the strongest currency in the world” is a bit of hyperbole.  The dinars used to purchase foreign currency go directly to the CBI from the banks, since the banks have to get the foreign currency from the CBI in exchange for the dinars. Therefore, no one is saying that it “go[es] back to the banks to begin the cycle all over again.”   [reference Guru mike’s post 6-17-2017….stay tuned for more of this spirited debate]   [post 2 of 2]

Iraqi armed forces announce progress in Mosul campaign, say district north of old city captured

Iraqi forces on Tuesday reported progress in the U.S.-backed campaign to dislodge Islamic State from Mosul, announcing the capture of a district just north the city’s historic center.

With the loss of the Zanjili neighborhood, the enclave still held by Islamic State in the northern Iraqi city has shrunk to two districts along the western banks of the Tigris river – the densely populated Old City center and the Medical City.

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The central bank prepares banks and transfer 25 million per month”   Here is my take on this important development.  It occurred to me that what we are seeing here is a plan to use some of the reserves to reduce the money supply in Iraq. The article makes clear that there is not a corruption problem.  However, they are still putting some limits on the exchange (dinars for foreign currency).  Furthermore…the CBI is making it clear up front that the banks will not be allowed to take advantage of the public who wish to purchase foreign currency.  This means that they will be forced to give the foreign currency at the official rate rather than the market rate.  As word of this gets out there will be more and more people who will want to surrender their dinars at that rate, thus saving many dinars by getting the foreign currency below the market rate.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   This will have two effects:  first, it will put pressure on the market rate to come in line with the official rate.  Why would I buy something with 1300 dinar if I could get it for 1160 dinar by simply converting to dollars first (or Euros, etc.).  This will stabilize the market rate immediately and begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Second, the exchange of foreign currency for dinars will allow the CBI to destroy the dinars turned in (admittedly for a similar draw down on their reserves, however).  The result will put similar pressure on the market rate to begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Of course the exchange will be monitored and limited so that reserves don’t disappear. The CBI has ample reserves in comparison to the current money supply of dinars.  They could afford to give up even 1/3 of their reserves and still have over 100% coverage of their money supply.  …this is a prudent and simple way to draw down the money supply without affecting day to day commerce…because they will be exchanging with “travelers,” people who are doing so not for daily commerce but to go to a foreign country and spend the foreign currency.  This will therefore have no affect on liquidity within the country.   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

NOW MOSUL IS NOT ENOUGH HE WANTS ALL OF IRAQ! I JUST PRAY WE HAVE THE REFORMS BY THE END OF JUNE.]  Abadi never said such a thing – in fact, he’s not in charge of international support and acceptance. The IMF, WB and UN is [are?]. If anyone has anything to say along these lines – it’s not Abadi.  Nowhere has Abadi said he wants all of Iraq before he institutes monetary and currency reforms.  In fact, just last week one article inferred they are already well into the process of monetary reform. These are documented facts.

Iraqi forces take over 90% of western Mosul’s Zanjili, push closer to Old City

Iraqi Federal Police forces took are almost taking over Zanjili district in western Mosul, pushing closer to the Islamic State-held Old City, the service’s commander sid Friday.

Lt. Gen. Shaker Jawdat said his forces were controlling 90 percent of Zanjili district, and were advancing along 10 kilometers in neighboring al-Shifa.

MadDScout (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The parliamentary economy supports the recent central bank measures to regulate the sale window of the currency”  Najib is saying the “economy is heating up”, and that the Parliament Economic Committee is in support of the strides the CBI has taken to organize and educate those banks taking part in the foreign currency sale, and this conducted in cooperation with the IMF…   Najib confirmed that there were banks who had to rectify their situations, in order to stay a part of the currency sale. She is part of Economic Committee.  In this way the Central Bank is moving forward on reform starting with the currency sale window.  They are moving forward!  I like that reform starts at “the currency window”.  These banks who are “rectifying” their situation are the exact type of institutions that were mentioned and bring the overall score down on that thing that is monetary reform.  Rectification will help to move the wheel forward.

Iraqi Forces Resume Push into Mosul’s Old City from Southern Front

Iraqi forces have once again attempted to advance into the Old City neighbourhood of western Mosul from the southern front which was halted due to the difficulty of advancement from that side in late April. Consequently, a northern front was opened in May.

The forces backed by warplanes began to attack from the southern front on Monday, said the head of the Iraqi Federal Police Lieutenant General Shaker Jawdat. Seven Islamic State (IS) militants were killed as a result.

Paramilitary troops say crossing Iraqi borders requires parliament approval

The Shia-led paramilitary troops have said that crossing the Iraqi borders to other countries requires parliament approval in advance.

In press remarks, Ahmed al-Assadi, spokesperson of al-Hashd al-Shaabi (Popular Mobilization Units) said “armed troops either from army, al-Hashd al-Shaabi or the army’s elite Counter-Terrorism Service crossing the Iraqi borders requires voting by Iraqi parliament as constitution does not allow intervention in other countries’ affairs.”

He considered that “talks about this issue while the country is fighting and clearing the provinces from Islamic State is unreal.”

UN envoy to Iraq: Liberation of Mosul imminent, ISIS days numbered

With the liberation of Mosul imminent, the international community must maintain a dual focus on defeating the remaining ISIS terrorists in Iraq, and on working towards post-conflict security and reconstruction, the United Nations envoy for Iraq Jan Kubis told the Security Council

Kubis went on to stress that the imminent defeat of ISIS must also provide an urgent impetus to address the needs of minorities, especially their ability to return to their homes

The return of all internally displaced persons to all liberated areas must be a top priority as should tackling increasing incidents of kidnapping and paying sustained attention to upcoming elections in 2017 and 2018

tman23 (Dinar Guru) –   Liberation is a matter of an announcement and appears Abadi wants to make a national announcement in regards to “the event” !!!  As posted last week……Friday was new moon…….in the complete darkness the assault begins putting the enemy at a huge disadvantage……..we expected it to be done at the latest -Tuesday…Military commanders under Maliki’s hand like to upstage Abadi……….. The announcement from Abadi will show power and authority……..and hopefully he can offer Iraq a vision with something tangible……… So without a single doubt there is a timing strategy to the final announcement to Mosul….

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –   …we all know the dinar is pegged to the dollar…   […wouldn’t Iraq have to/want to be in Article VIII compliance before they unpegged?]   I can only speculate based on the IMF docs that I have read.  But I would assume so…because the raising of the value of the dinar is directly related to investment in the market economy. And without Article VIII, there is no foreign investment.  Remember, the key to this is the activation of the CBI’s Capital Account which is the pipeline of sorts for money flowing in and out of Iraq. Once in Article VIII, foreign investors/ investment will begin to participate in rebuilding and privatizing Iraq. Money will be deposited into bank accounts, flow through the CBI’s Capital Account and if the dinar is not pegged, will begin to move upwards to offset inflationary pressure created by the influx of economic activity (thus the Balassa-Samuelson effect)... There are no shortcuts. The CBI needs to get in compliance with the IMF so they can transition out of Article XIV. They need deposit insurance. Once that happens, we should see things begin to move fast.

I was mistaken earlier this week, the meeting is not on the 27th… it’s on the 25th. Ramadan starts on the 26th.  Could the 25th or 26th be our day?  It’s possible, if Iraq is given a clear exemption from the OPEC oil production deal (the same deal that Russia and Saudi Arabia have already agreed to).

Maybe not today or tomorrow, but legitimately CLOSE. Unlike ever before.  (keep in mind – we have been close before – the CBI had planned on 2013? sometime and put it off). According to the SIGR Report.  We are close.  REAL CLOSE.

Iraqi forces retake Rawshan area in western Mosul: command

The Iraqi command said Friday that government forces recaptured an area in western Mosul as they advanced near the last Islamic State strongholds in the region.

The Joint Operations Command said the army’s elite Counter-Terrorism Service recaptured the Rawshan area in northwestern Mosul, raising Iraqi flags at the area.
The development comes as Iraqi forces moved through a new front of operations targeting the IS-held, strategic Old City, having besieged the area futilely for weeks.

There is just TOO MUCH happening right now! There are a couple key elements to this…that will make me go “Full Buzzy” in spite of the upcoming holiday that traditionally yields 0 “real” progress for anything in Iraq For some months now, I’ve been very optimistic about Iraq’s ISIS situation. Over the last few days, thi -s has only increased.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

This is the exact area where we were stagnant last year. This year is different – the consistency of these articles lately is a telling sign. “The Ministry of Commerce promises Iraqis Surprise in the month of Ramadan  May 13, 2017”  New ration cards to be issued next week. Could these be tied into the upcoming changes in the entire Iraqi banking system, which will ultimately incorporate new currency, ATMs, and a new rate? It’s a possible “gateway” move. For once, I actually agree that something might get done during Ramadan. *shock* *GASP!*   [post 2 of 2]

Fight to retake Mosul in ‘final stages,’ US envoy says

HAMAM AL-ALIL, IRAQ — The fight to retake Mosul from the Islamic State group is approaching its “final stages,” a senior U.S. official said Monday.

Brett McGurk, special presidential envoy for the global coalition against the IS, said Iraqi forces are “completely defeating” IS in one of the most difficult urban battles since World War II. But local Iraqi officials say they will need more funding from the U.S. and others in the international community to rebuild in territory recently retaken from the extremists.

McGurk spoke to The Associated Press from a water treatment plant south of Mosul where Iraqi forces closely backed by the U.S.-led coalition are slowly closing in on the remaining cluster of IS-held neighborhoods in the city’s west.

Recent gains in the north meant the remaining militants were being squeezed into an ever smaller area, he added.

tman23 (Dinar Guru) –   Since it appears to be a matter of fact that Kurdistan will hold a referendum come late October early November… Since previous articles from past years pushed/delayed the lifting of 3 zeros from the first of the year to June… IF WE ARE CLOSE TO SEEING A CHANGE IN THE CURRENCY… AND SINCE IT WAS SAID TO HAPPEN THE BEGINNING OF 2017…IT IS LOGICAL TO LOOK FORWARD TO MAY 29TH TO JUNE 1ST…AND IT IS LOGICAL TO ASSUME THAT IF IT DOES NOT HAPPEN JUNE…IT MAY WAIT FOR THE KURD REFERENDUM AND HELLO 2018!   BUT…Since Baghdad would like to keep Kurds interested in a united Iraq…I would think an added value to their currency would lean the scales in that direction…UNITED.

G-Lin (Dinar Guru) –  Article: “ATMs for MasterCard card users”  Quote: “the project will be completed within the next few years after the final approvals of the implementation conditions have been completed legally”   I’m not too concerned about that 3 year mention. This art. is a very encouraging one. It looks as though Iraq has already accomplished huge things in the banking industry. We are right in the middle of Iraq going digital. E money. And IMO those ATM’s will not slow things down one bit. They apparently have already connected to international banks. That is huge. I think the majorities of salaries are being paid on smart cards and that will encourage the peeps to warm up to banks and bring in those 3 0’s notes. Once they pull in the liquidity under the mattresses I think they will bring out the LD’s. I don’t know when that will be of course, but they seem to be on a fast track currently.  At least in the banking industry. And that is exactly what IMF has told them repeatedly to do. Finally they are complying.

Phillyman (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “International Development Bank (IDB) is granted a membership license to MasterCard International”   Quote:  “The International Development Bank (IDB) on Thursday held the signing ceremony for the contract for the granting of a basic membership license to MasterCard International in Baghdad.”     I wish the time table wasn’t as stated  “the project will be completed within the next few years after the final approvals of the implementation conditions have been completed legally” but it certainly is a huge step in the direction of a nation trying to make great strides in their economy.  It would also be nice when electricity is running 24/7 to keep those ATMs on.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –    Article:  “ATMs for MasterCard card users”  Quote:  “The Ministry of Communications coordinated the establishment of ATM for users of the card (master card) through its outlets in post offices in Baghdad and the provinces.”   IMO, these types are articles only tell us currency reform is coming sooner than later.

BGG (Dinar Guru) –   Article:  “Iraq offers compensation settlement and Kuwaiti debt against investment”   Quote:  “…the meeting also discussed the file of compensation with the State of Kuwait and ways to settle through the window of investment inside Iraq.“.   two separate items talked about – how to pay back Kuwait (not to be confused with) – their eagerness to settle investments inside Iraq?  One of the big problems needing dealt with – is they have few mechanisms in place to safe guard investors. Why would the IMF care about Iraqi investors. They don’t – this is referring to OUTSIDE investors. Period.  Really good news – entering final talks – it appears.
______________________________________________________________

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –   Article:  “ATMs for MasterCard card users”   …it is fun to watch all the pieces be put in place for the economy to take off.  Iraq is literally going from the stone age to the 21st century with technology in a few years.

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –   [What will happen to the other major currencies when the CBI RV’s the IQD/USD exchange rate? The countries using the EUR, the GBP, the CHF, the JPY, and the CNY all have international corporations invested in Iraqi oil with contracts based on today’s exchange rates.  How will a radical upward IQD/USD RV (which effectively decreases the value of the USD against the IQD) affect the EUR/USD and the GBP/USD and the CHF/USD and the JPY/USD and the CNY/USD exchange rates?  Will these other major global currencies also be devalued and what in your opinion will that do to an already stressed global economy?]  This is a great question, because it opens up the floor to discuss how an RV is really a zero-sum game, mostly because we are talking about a fiat currency. When the FED prints more USD, we don’t actually gain that money.  It just dilutes the dollar a little bit more.  IQD, and an RV of the currency, works the same way, just on a global scale. My opinion is that almost every other currency will take a slight hit, and then rebound once the IQD rate stabilizes, and within about a month all currencies will be back to normal… except the IQD will be dramatically different than it was a month prior.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –   Iraq is doing what is asked of them by the IMF and WB (though 3-6 months late) to prepare the banking system for international integration with the financial system.  Iraq needed to make these changes, along with several others (including reducing the spread)  to set the stage for acceptance into IMF Article VIII. Remember the goal here as stated in the SBA is to accept Article VIII to “create a favorable business climate” for investment.  Accepting Article VIII will give freedom of movement of capital in and out of Iraq (so investors can get profits out), make the dinar convertible worldwide through the banking system, and most importantly allow the CBI to stop the daily auctions and let the market and world set the value for the dinar (they will stop the peg).  This is all about creating the conditions for a market economy.

Daz (Dinar Guru) –  [We thought it was the US or Iraq holding it up, turns out the WB had to approve their readiness.]  …big difference between a “hold up” and a required “alignment of interests”   WHEN A SATISFACTORY CONDITION AND ALIGNMENT OF ALL THE VARIOUS INTERESTS AND POWER STRUCTURES HAVE REACHED A POINT OF REASONABLE SATISFACTION THAT THEIR INTERESTS AND GOALS ARE MET… THEY WILL JUST AS SIMPLY… “TURN THE MONEY BACK ON”.

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) –   Let me now go in the direction of…an article from an economist…this economist…is actually an advisor and goes to many of the seminars and meetings…and he knows the CBI plan…so his opinion about what they are doing with their Exchange Rate...how they need to INSTALL it as the article says…is strong confirmation IMO of what he is saying because it is in accord with the CBI, IMF, WB plans or projects…which is to lift the Exchange Rate…This article itself is also pointing to the investors of Iraq…we are lifting the restrictions on the Exchange Rate…we are liberating the Exchange Rate from a Program Rate…because Mosul is not an issue anymore…and I believe they have gone from the concept of liberating Mosul to the liberation of the Program Rate…so the investors can come in and rebuild through the infrastructure of Iraq…all of a sudden it looks like they put the locomotive engine of the Monetary Reform back on track

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –   Article:  “Central: The reality of the Iraqi economy makes it imperative to develop financial operations”   Quote:  “indicating that the deposit guarantee law is the cornerstone of this topic and its application is true to move liquidity in the right direction and transfer to the banking sector , which Ciozvha in the national economy first . The estimated volume of liquidity in Iraq to 47 trillion Iraqi dinars in homes around hoarding 70 percent of this amount , according to indicators of specialized centers and finance experts. ”  I see Iraq a crossroads, they need to get these things done now so the CBI can get the banking system open to the world for foreign investment.  No time to waste and they have been talking about a private sector way to long.

BGG (Dinar Guru) –   […looking at the past , we know IQD was at $3+ at one time. the Kuwait dinar is over 3+ now. I would think at sometime in the future they would want to be at least even with Kuwait, an ego thing…]  We are welcome to think that – but… when presenting factual news and commentary … best to stick with facts and print in INK.  $3 is NOWHERE in sight will it happen? Who knows?

tman23 (Dinar Guru) –  …Revaluation (Definition):  A calculated adjustment to a country’s official exchange rate relative to a chosen baseline. The baseline can be anything from wage rates to the price of gold to a foreign currency. In a fixed exchange rate regime, only a decision by a country’s government (i.e. central bank) can alter the official value of the currency.  Re-denomination has nothing to do with Re-valuation. When a currency is redenominated the central bank of that country will reissue notes at a decided ratio for both speculators and its citizens.  For ex., If you have a 1000 INR note and Reserve Bank of India (RBI) redenominated at a ratio 1:10 then RBI will take your old 1000 INR note and issue you new 100 INR whose value stays the same. The net value of old 1000 INR will be same as new 100 INR.   [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

BGG (Dinar Guru) –    Second half of the answer…Who – in Iraq ever said anything DIRECTLY about $3?   …all of the foundational documents we have uncovered and are using as our basis for research seem to indicate something around $1…SIGR report…Iraq MOP studies…recent interviews with CBI Officials…I haven’t verified $3 ONE TIME – NOT ONCE…in fact, it seems clear they intend to get to $1 – but how exactly they intend to do that – we are not sure of… NOR CAN WE BE.   Relax and enjoy the show – YOU’VE GOT A TICKET TO RIDE!  [post 3 of 3]
______________________________________________________________

BGG (Dinar Guru) –   …the only reason they have to worry about what is outside of Iraq is they might have to redeem it in some way. The CBI has been sensitive to this issue for some time… and the IMF – UN – WB have had an eye on it as well…the Dinar that is INSIDE Iraq is still going to be worth a Dinar. Nothing changes on that front – they just get more for it.  It’s not costing the CBI a DIME!!   …a Dinar is still worth a Dinar – post RV.  Iraqis are not going to be POURING INTO BANKS to exchange their Dinar for some other foreign currency… why would they?   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

BGG (Dinar Guru) –   …a friend calls me this week…has a couple of questions for me to answer.  How can Iraq, if they have 25 Trillion Dinar outstanding – ever RV at a $3 dollar rate and pay for it?  Isn’t that like 75 Trillion DollarsFirst, we have NO IDEA what the real outstanding number is – OUTSIDE OF IRAQ. That is the key number…there is NO RELIABLE INFO on this… even the CBI’s internal people can only estimate… and they don’t think it is that much. Could be as low as 3 Trillion – maybe less now…So – the real lesson is not to base complex analysis on wide gaps in actual information. The 25 Trillion number is likely a flawed assumption… AND if they get “international support and acceptance” – that 3-6 Trillion could even get held in various Treasuries as “Foreign currency reserves” – JUST LIKE the IRAQ CENTRAL BANK DOES WITH OTHERS.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   Article:   “Vice: oversees the United Nations five-year plan for economic development in Iraq”  i agree with KAP [Guru Kaperoni…reference post 5-2-2017]  that the IMF is what she is referring to.  This confirms and ties into what we have known for some time, namely that the IMF is controlling the plans for change at this point.  Furthermore, they are on record that they intend to “bring Iraq into the world market” sometime in the first half of this year.  If they are on schedule then we should expect some significant changes within the next 60 days.  Of course this is Iraq, and even with the control in the hands of he IMF, it is anyone’s guess how long it will take to get to the float.

Iraq, US in talks to keep American troop presence after IS

Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi is in talks with the Trump administration to keep American troops in Iraq after the fight against the Islamic State group in the country is concluded, according to a U.S. official and an official from the Iraqi government.

Both officials underlined that the discussions are ongoing and that nothing is finalized.

But the talks point to a consensus by both governments that, in contrast to the U.S. withdrawal in 2011, a longer-term presence of American troops in Iraq is needed to ensure that an insurgency does not bubble up again once the militants are driven out.

The more e dinar we see, the better off we are.

MadDScout (Dinar Guru) –   Article:  “Baghdad – Journal News  The parliamentary finance committee confirmed that the World Bank’s step in reforming the financial system in Iraq is an important step in supporting investment in the country.”  I am thinking this is their confirmation that they are taking the advice of World Bank and moving forward on reforms.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –   Article:   “Parliamentary Finance: World Bank pursues tough policies with Iraq”   Quote:   “The World Bank’s move to reform the financial system in Iraq is an important step in supporting the country’s investment, the parliamentary finance committee said on Thursday.”   As I have stated over and over, the banking system is the key.  You cannot have private investment if you cannot get your profits out of Iraq.  So they are now being held to the fire to get it open to the world (ie electronic banking, reduced corruption, IMF compliance, Article VIII, etc) so investors will come and develop the private sector

BGG (Dinar Guru) –    “Would BGG please give us the true meaning of the deletion of the zeroes project“?]  The “Delete the Zeros” project – (we believe) is part of the currency reform project in Iraq.  Most notably the process of raising the value of the Dinar and then removing the larger “3 zero” notes from the market…they don’t want people sitting on those big notes – they want them out, where they can easily retract them from the marketplace.
What about the subject of the deletion of zeros and the reason for the delay?
1) Security – control of the state (ie; Mosul)… CERTAINLY PREVENTS THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PROJECT.
2) When it is DONE – it must be “…done in coordination with all state departments and the private sector…”  Here’s the DOOZY folks…    [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

BGG (Dinar Guru) – 3) “…where it should be followed by changing the paragraphs contained in the various laws…”  MEANING – ONCE THE VALUE CHANGES THEY HAVE TO GET A FEW THINGS CHANGED TO SUIT THE VALUE. 
THEY JUST TOLD YOU THE ORDER OF THINGS.

4) “…must also change the financial and statistical records in order to conform with the project process the deletion of zeros…” This bit ALSO INFERS A VALUE CHANGE AS THE PRECURSOR TO REMOVING THE NOTES AND THE REST OF THE PROJECT…here’s another ZINGER…
5) “…On the other hand, the technical preparations are (already) underway by us…” – WHAAAAAAATTTT??  THEY ARE ALREADY GETTING THE TECHNICAL STUFF UNDERWAY. THEY MUST THINK WE ARE CLOSE? This is the ACTUAL CBI talking.  [post 2 of 2]

WED. THURS. WINDOW.   MANY OF US REMEMBER OVER TWO YEARS AGO THE U.S. TREASURY DEPT. CHANGED THEIR INTERNAL RULES SO THAT THEY COULD PAY BILLS WITH FOREIGN CURRENCIES. NOW WOULDN’T THAT BE MORE THAN CONVENIENT FOR A TIME LIKE THIS?  IMO.

Breitling (Dinar Guru) – …Think about all the numbers we’ve been watching over the years…we knew what we needed to look for…We always talked about the note count.  The note count has to be going down.  At it’s peak when I got into the dinar…it was 15 trillion dinar…NOT NOTESdinar.  The max Iraq has had is 9 Billion notes which represented about 30 trillion dinar.  So what does that mean?  If you have 1 note that’s worth 25k and one note that’s worth 10k, you can see how there are more dinar than there are notes and that’s why we need to be able to parse those numbers to understand exactly what’s going on.  But the total was 30 trillion dinar out there and they brought that number down by reducing the note count.  So what are we at today?

DayTrader, a News Researcher for DinarUpdates.com, recently had some interesting commentary.

Here are his thoughts:

Article 140 is much more complex than many realize. If you read Article 140 in the Iraq constitution, it refers to Article 58 of the Law of Administration for the State of Iraq for the Transitional Period that outlines all the steps that must be completed. This was a document constructed by Paul Bremmer to be used until a permanent constitution could be developed and ratified by Iraq. Article 58 states:

Is this then telling us they are removing 1 zero and not 3? Not sure what to think.]  Could just be moving toward increased value.  I highly doubt they “take off one zero” since the whole “three zeros project” isn’t about nominal value – or moving the decimal point. It’s about increasing the value.

Loop (Dinar Guru) –   Article:  “Head of the IMF mission’s (term) interest peg to the dollar rather than a large reduction of the Iraqi economy”  The head of the IMF mission in Iraq is answering questions.  THe IMF is saying that to decrease the value of the dinar against the dollar would only lead to inflation and that the CBI has the needed reserves to support the economy.   [we certainly dont want it devalued any more. It won’t. THere is no reason for it. Their economy is expanding so why on earth would the throw it into reverse?  Just like I do not think a float is going to happen.  They also are saying that there is no issue with the debt that they have taken on to support the country as long as the follow the process as outlined in the SBA.

This is about as much heads up as they are willing to give anyone…if they change the laws ahead of time – EVERYONE WILL KNOW.    BIGGEST PIECE YET…here it comes…  “On the other hand, the technical preparations are underway by us.”  Meaning – on the other side of everything he’s said so far… they are and have been already making technical preparations (by the CBI).  Pretty plain – if you ask me…pretty huge news...   [post 2 of 2]

Most of the Iraqi Central Bank steps are subject to political and legal environment of the country , especially in regard to the deletion of zeros that counted specialists in the earlier trend sensitive and dangerous may still be , but the central remains the most important institution in terms of the need to adjust the financial management in light of the financial crisis experienced by the the Iraqi economy, which must have to deal with dilemmas , whether with regard to the citizen or the work of the central bank itself.

1bobby (Dinar Guru) –   Article:  “Office: Abadi agreed with the delegation of the Kurdistan Region to remove obstacles that prevented the activation of Article 140”  The infamous Art 140 is in the Constitution, just not activated and or implemented. Now 140 does not cover all of Iraq, just Kirkuk and the disputed territories, Kikuk being ground zero.  With Abadi agreeing to remove all obstacles to implement 140 is a HUGE step forward and something the Kurds can work with. Now while there are numerous cities/districts covered under 140, Kirkuk is the main concern. Kirkuk sits atop one of the largest oil reserves in Iraq, most reports estimate over 40 billion barrels of oil.  …If Abadi is willing to remove the obstacles, then the Kurds will control Kirkuk. This action does not require a Parliamentary vote since it’s already in the Constitution. What Baghdad wants is what the constitution states “All oil within Iraq belongs to all Iraqi’s“…So if the Kurds get what they want, Baghdad will want all oil proceeds to flow thru Baghdad and then %’s will be distributed accordingly.  We’ll just have to let this play out and see what they do, not what they say.

MadDScout (Dinar Guru) –  [What’s left before NEEDED to be taken off programmed rate?]  Answer: That is what we are watching for.

MadDScout (Dinar Guru) –  [We have always heard when article 140 and HCL are put into place and activated we should see the rate within hours of implementation. We know Mosul is a key part. Can they implement HCL and Article 140 on a program rate?]   Answer:   That theory is old and unfounded, and tends to put events in the wrong order, according to what we know right now. Being as this is never mentioned in any of Alaks statements when asked about what the CBI needs to make full monetary reforms, I have put it out of my vocabulary.  As to the third part of your question, can they implement 140 at program rate, I think it is so far in the future (Art140) they will have a “rate” by then. But IMO one doesn’t equal the other. They are stand alone issues, unhinged one from another. Rate is only important to us.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “Abadi: Two months separating Iraq’s exit from Chapter VII”  [It would seem that Iraq’s removal of Chapter 7 would occur before the dinar becomes marketable and begins to float…]    …though it’s important for Iraq to have it’s own currency once sovereign, I do not think they are directly related. When the dinar floats is a more of a decision of the CBI based on monetary policy. IMO, I do not expect it to begin until just before foreign investment begins to pour into Iraq.

Iraqi armed forces announce progress in Mosul campaign, say district north of old city captured

Iraqi forces on Tuesday reported progress in the U.S.-backed campaign to dislodge Islamic State from Mosul, announcing the capture of a district just north the city’s historic center.

With the loss of the Zanjili neighborhood, the enclave still held by Islamic State in the northern Iraqi city has shrunk to two districts along the western banks of the Tigris river – the densely populated Old City center and the Medical City.

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The central bank prepares banks and transfer 25 million per month”   Here is my take on this important development.  It occurred to me that what we are seeing here is a plan to use some of the reserves to reduce the money supply in Iraq. The article makes clear that there is not a corruption problem.  However, they are still putting some limits on the exchange (dinars for foreign currency).  Furthermore…the CBI is making it clear up front that the banks will not be allowed to take advantage of the public who wish to purchase foreign currency.  This means that they will be forced to give the foreign currency at the official rate rather than the market rate.  As word of this gets out there will be more and more people who will want to surrender their dinars at that rate, thus saving many dinars by getting the foreign currency below the market rate.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Enorrste (Dinar Guru) –   This will have two effects:  first, it will put pressure on the market rate to come in line with the official rate.  Why would I buy something with 1300 dinar if I could get it for 1160 dinar by simply converting to dollars first (or Euros, etc.).  This will stabilize the market rate immediately and begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Second, the exchange of foreign currency for dinars will allow the CBI to destroy the dinars turned in (admittedly for a similar draw down on their reserves, however).  The result will put similar pressure on the market rate to begin to bring it in line with the official rate.  Of course the exchange will be monitored and limited so that reserves don’t disappear. The CBI has ample reserves in comparison to the current money supply of dinars.  They could afford to give up even 1/3 of their reserves and still have over 100% coverage of their money supply.  …this is a prudent and simple way to draw down the money supply without affecting day to day commerce…because they will be exchanging with “travelers,” people who are doing so not for daily commerce but to go to a foreign country and spend the foreign currency.  This will therefore have no affect on liquidity within the country.   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

MadDScout(Dinar Guru) –   Article:  “The Association of Private Banks appoints a temporary chairman”   Quote:  “the president of the association was accused by specialists on many charges, including providing false information to the Central Bank of Iraq to achieve personal benefits…”  I like this one because it speaks to internal house cleaning…House cleaning within the banking association.  It says that eventually being corrupt will be of no gain.

NOW MOSUL IS NOT ENOUGH HE WANTS ALL OF IRAQ! I JUST PRAY WE HAVE THE REFORMS BY THE END OF JUNE.]  Abadi never said such a thing – in fact, he’s not in charge of international support and acceptance. The IMF, WB and UN is [are?]. If anyone has anything to say along these lines – it’s not Abadi.  Nowhere has Abadi said he wants all of Iraq before he institutes monetary and currency reforms.  In fact, just last week one article inferred they are already well into the process of monetary reform. These are documented facts.

Iraqi forces take over 90% of western Mosul’s Zanjili, push closer to Old City

Iraqi Federal Police forces took are almost taking over Zanjili district in western Mosul, pushing closer to the Islamic State-held Old City, the service’s commander sid Friday.

Lt. Gen. Shaker Jawdat said his forces were controlling 90 percent of Zanjili district, and were advancing along 10 kilometers in neighboring al-Shifa. Both districts are the last two around the medieval Old City, IS’s last bastion in Mosul from where the group declared in 2014 the establishment of its rule in Iraq and Syria.

______________________________________________________________

MadDScout (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The parliamentary economy supports the recent central bank measures to regulate the sale window of the currency”  Najib is saying the “economy is heating up”, and that the Parliament Economic Committee is in support of the strides the CBI has taken to organize and educate those banks taking part in the foreign currency sale, and this conducted in cooperation with the IMF…   Najib confirmed that there were banks who had to rectify their situations, in order to stay a part of the currency sale. She is part of Economic Committee.  In this way the Central Bank is moving forward on reform starting with the currency sale window.  They are moving forward!  I like that reform starts at “the currency window”.  These banks who are “rectifying” their situation are the exact type of institutions that were mentioned and bring the overall score down on that thing that is monetary reform.  Rectification will help to move the wheel forward.

Iraqi Forces Resume Push into Mosul’s Old City from Southern Front

The forces backed by warplanes began to attack from the southern front on Monday, said the head of the Iraqi Federal Police Lieutenant General Shaker Jawdat. Seven Islamic State (IS) militants were killed as a result.

Paramilitary troops say crossing Iraqi borders requires parliament approval

The Shia-led paramilitary troops have said that crossing the Iraqi borders to other countries requires parliament approval in advance.

In press remarks, Ahmed al-Assadi, spokesperson of al-Hashd al-Shaabi (Popular Mobilization Units) said “armed troops either from army, al-Hashd al-Shaabi or the army’s elite Counter-Terrorism Service crossing the Iraqi borders requires voting by Iraqi parliament as constitution does not allow intervention in other countries’ affairs.”

He considered that “talks about this issue while the country is fighting and clearing the provinces from Islamic State is unreal.”

I think the upside for us is – if Iraq has any inkling about this – they need to diversify and get their private market reformed and on a roll now.  Which, obviously…starts with currency reform.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –   […is it better for Iraq to rebuild itself at the present rate or at a re- established rate?]   …at this point and time, it does not matter what the exchange rate is regarding rebuilding…since the primary source of revenue is oil sales (95%) which is paid in dollars.  And since the dinar is not globally convertible, Iraq pays for goods in dollars.  So in that sense they are on the same playing field we are on in the US when we pay for goods.   The real benefit comes when the CBI can begin to raise the value to offset inflationary pressure created by investors and investment along with meeting  IMF Article VIII compliance.  The result will eventually give the citizens a better life, greater purchasing power and most importantly the ability for the CBI to keep its dollars and pay in dinars.

Abadi reveals a plan to secure the Iraqi-Syrian border

Baghdad Mawazine News Prime Minister, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, Haider al-Abadi, announced on Tuesday a plan under his supervision and coordination with the popular crowd to secure the border with Syria, stressing that the Iraqi forces managed to besiege “terrorism” and control of his movement, while promising not to keep any ” , Pointing out that terrorism will not be able to carry out terrorist attacks against Iraqis except with the presence of “Hawadn”.

Abadi called in his weekly press conference, and his follower / Mawazin News / political blocs to “commit to national unity and fight terrorism,” surprising statements that call for “emergency government”, pointing out that “the elections will be held in time,” stressing that ” Changing the constitutional timing “.

UN envoy to Iraq: Liberation of Mosul imminent, ISIS days numbered

With the liberation of Mosul imminent, the international community must maintain a dual focus on defeating the remaining ISIS terrorists in Iraq, and on working towards post-conflict security and reconstruction, the United Nations envoy for Iraq Jan Kubis told the Security Council

Kubis went on to stress that the imminent defeat of ISIS must also provide an urgent impetus to address the needs of minorities, especially their ability to return to their homes

The return of all internally displaced persons to all liberated areas must be a top priority as should tackling increasing incidents of kidnapping and paying sustained attention to upcoming elections in 2017 and 2018

tman23 (Dinar Guru) –   Liberation is a matter of an announcement and appears Abadi wants to make a national announcement in regards to “the event” !!!  As posted last week……Friday was new moon…….in the complete darkness the assault begins putting the enemy at a huge disadvantage……..we expected it to be done at the latest -Tuesday…Military commanders under Maliki’s hand like to upstage Abadi……….. The announcement from Abadi will show power and authority……..and hopefully he can offer Iraq a vision with something tangible……… So without a single doubt there is a timing strategy to the final announcement to Mosul….

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –   …we all know the dinar is pegged to the dollar…   […wouldn’t Iraq have to/want to be in Article VIII compliance before they unpegged?]   I can only speculate based on the IMF docs that I have read.  But I would assume so…because the raising of the value of the dinar is directly related to investment in the market economy. And without Article VIII, there is no foreign investment.  Remember, the key to this is the activation of the CBI’s Capital Account which is the pipeline of sorts for money flowing in and out of Iraq. Once in Article VIII, foreign investors/ investment will begin to participate in rebuilding and privatizing Iraq. Money will be deposited into bank accounts, flow through the CBI’s Capital Account and if the dinar is not pegged, will begin to move upwards to offset inflationary pressure created by the influx of economic activity (thus the Balassa-Samuelson effect)... There are no shortcuts. The CBI needs to get in compliance with the IMF so they can transition out of Article XIV. They need deposit insurance. Once that happens, we should see things begin to move fast.

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –  I’m watching this OPEC situation like a HAWK… this is getting serious!  We all view the word “soon” with a bit of disdain, but it’s starting to taste a little better every day.   This rolled across my desk bright and early this morning:  “Optimism ahead of OPEC meeting drives U.S. crude oil back above $50”  But the real reason for this post is to clarify the next OPEC meeting date. I was mistaken earlier this week, the meeting is not on the 27th… it’s on the 25th. Ramadan starts on the 26th.  Could the 25th or 26th be our day?  It’s possible, if Iraq is given a clear exemption from the OPEC oil production deal (the same deal that Russia and Saudi Arabia have already agreed to).

Maybe not today or tomorrow, but legitimately CLOSE. Unlike ever before.  (keep in mind – we have been close before – the CBI had planned on 2013? sometime and put it off). According to the SIGR Report.  We are close.  REAL CLOSE.

Iraqi forces retake Rawshan area in western Mosul: command

The Iraqi command said Friday that government forces recaptured an area in western Mosul as they advanced near the last Islamic State strongholds in the region.

The Joint Operations Command said the army’s elite Counter-Terrorism Service recaptured the Rawshan area in northwestern Mosul, raising Iraqi flags at the area.
The development comes as Iraqi forces moved through a new front of operations targeting the IS-held, strategic Old City, having besieged the area futilely for weeks.

There is just TOO MUCH happening right now! There are a couple key elements to this…that will make me go “Full Buzzy” in spite of the upcoming holiday that traditionally yields 0 “real” progress for anything in Iraq For some months now, I’ve been very optimistic about Iraq’s ISIS situation.

This year is different – the consistency of these articles lately is a telling sign. “The Ministry of Commerce promises Iraqis Surprise in the month of Ramadan  May 13, 2017”  New ration cards to be issued next week. Could these be tied into the upcoming changes in the entire Iraqi banking system, which will ultimately incorporate new currency, ATMs, and a new rate? It’s a possible “gateway” move.

Fight to retake Mosul in ‘final stages,’ US envoy says

HAMAM AL-ALIL, IRAQ — The fight to retake Mosul from the Islamic State group is approaching its “final stages,” a senior U.S. official said Monday.

Brett McGurk, special presidential envoy for the global coalition against the IS, said Iraqi forces are “completely defeating” IS in one of the most difficult urban battles since World War II. But local Iraqi officials say they will need more funding from the U.S. and others in the international community to rebuild in territory recently retaken from the extremists.

McGurk spoke to The Associated Press from a water treatment plant south of Mosul where Iraqi forces closely backed by the U.S.-led coalition are slowly closing in on the remaining cluster of IS-held neighborhoods in the city’s west.

Iraqi security forces are only days away from completing the operation to recapture Mosul from ISIS, the BBC quoted army’s chief of staff as saying on Friday.

Lt Gen Othman al-Ghanimi said he hoped the group would be defeated in the city before the Islamic holy month of Ramadan begins on 26 May.

Recent gains in the north meant the remaining militants were being squeezed into an ever smaller area, he added.

This art. is a very encouraging one. It looks as though Iraq has already accomplished huge things in the banking industry. We are right in the middle of Iraq going digital. E money. And IMO those ATM’s will not slow things down one bit. They apparently have already connected to international banks. That is huge. I think the majorities of salaries are being paid on smart cards and that will encourage the peeps to warm up to banks and bring in those 3 0’s notes. Once they pull in the liquidity under the mattresses I think they will bring out the LD’s. I don’t know when that will be of course, but they seem to be on a fast track currently.  At least in the banking industry. And that is exactly what IMF has told them repeatedly to do. Finally they are complying.

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –   [What will happen to the other major currencies when the CBI RV’s the IQD/USD exchange rate? The countries using the EUR, the GBP, the CHF, the JPY, and the CNY all have international corporations invested in Iraqi oil with contracts based on today’s exchange rates.  How will a radical upward IQD/USD RV (which effectively decreases the value of the USD against the IQD) affect the EUR/USD and the GBP/USD and the CHF/USD and the JPY/USD and the CNY/USD exchange rates?  Will these other major global currencies also be devalued and what in your opinion will that do to an already stressed global economy?]  This is a great question, because it opens up the floor to discuss how an RV is really a zero-sum game, mostly because we are talking about a fiat currency. When the FED prints more USD, we don’t actually gain that money.  It just dilutes the dollar a little bit more.  IQD, and an RV of the currency, works the same way, just on a global scale. My opinion is that almost every other currency will take a slight hit, and then rebound once the IQD rate stabilizes, and within about a month all currencies will be back to normal… except the IQD will be dramatically different than it was a month prior.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –   Iraq is doing what is asked of them by the IMF and WB (though 3-6 months late) to prepare the banking system for international integration with the financial system.  Iraq needed to make these changes, along with several others (including reducing the spread)  to set the stage for acceptance into IMF Article VIII. Remember the goal here as stated in the SBA is to accept Article VIII to “create a favorable business climate” for investment.  Accepting Article VIII will give freedom of movement of capital in and out of Iraq (so investors can get profits out), make the dinar convertible worldwide through the banking system, and most importantly allow the CBI to stop the daily auctions and let the market and world set the value for the dinar (they will stop the peg).  This is all about creating the conditions for a market economy.

tman23 (Dinar Guru) –  …Revaluation (Definition):  A calculated adjustment to a country’s official exchange rate relative to a chosen baseline. The baseline can be anything from wage rates to the price of gold to a foreign currency. In a fixed exchange rate regime, only a decision by a country’s government (i.e. central bank) can alter the official value of the currency.  Re-denomination has nothing to do with Re-valuation. When a currency is redenominated the central bank of that country will reissue notes at a decided ratio for both speculators and its citizens.  For ex., If you have a 1000 INR note and Reserve Bank of India (RBI) redenominated at a ratio 1:10 then RBI will take your old 1000 INR note and issue you new 100 INR whose value stays the same. The net value of old 1000 INR will be same as new 100 INR.   [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

That is the key number…there is NO RELIABLE INFO on this… even the CBI’s internal people can only estimate… and they don’t think it is that much. Could be as low as 3 Trillion – maybe less now…So – the real lesson is not to base complex analysis on wide gaps in actual information. The 25 Trillion number is likely a flawed assumption… AND if they get “international support and acceptance” – that 3-6 Trillion could even get held in various Treasuries as “Foreign currency reserves” – JUST LIKE the IRAQ CENTRAL BANK DOES WITH OTHERS.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]

Iraq, US in talks to keep American troop presence after IS

Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi is in talks with the Trump administration to keep American troops in Iraq after the fight against the Islamic State group in the country is concluded, according to a U.S. official and an official from the Iraqi government.

Both officials underlined that the discussions are ongoing and that nothing is finalized.

But the talks point to a consensus by both governments that, in contrast to the U.S. withdrawal in 2011, a longer-term presence of American troops in Iraq is needed to ensure that an insurgency does not bubble up again once the militants are driven out.

What about the subject of the deletion of zeros and the reason for the delay?
1) Security – control of the state (ie; Mosul)… CERTAINLY PREVENTS THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PROJECT.
2) When it is DONE – it must be “…done in coordination with all state departments and the private sector…”  Here’s the DOOZY folks…    [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

DayTrader, a News Researcher for DinarUpdates.com, recently had some interesting commentary.

Here are his thoughts:

Article 140 is much more complex than many realize. If you read Article 140 in the Iraq constitution, it refers to Article 58 of the Law of Administration for the State of Iraq for the Transitional Period that outlines all the steps that must be completed. This was a document constructed by Paul Bremmer to be used until a permanent constitution could be developed and ratified by Iraq. Article 58 states:

Not sure what to think.]  Could just be moving toward increased value.  I highly doubt they “take off one zero” since the whole “three zeros project” isn’t about nominal value – or moving the decimal point.

Now 140 does not cover all of Iraq, just Kirkuk and the disputed territories, Kikuk being ground zero.  With Abadi agreeing to remove all obstacles to implement 140 is a HUGE step forward and something the Kurds can work with. Now while there are numerous cities/districts covered under 140, Kirkuk is the main concern. Kirkuk sits atop one of the largest oil reserves in Iraq, most reports estimate over 40 billion barrels of oil.  …If Abadi is willing to remove the obstacles, then the Kurds will control Kirkuk. This action does not require a Parliamentary vote since it’s already in the Constitution. What Baghdad wants is what the constitution states “All oil within Iraq belongs to all Iraqi’s“…So if the Kurds get what they want, Baghdad will want all oil proceeds to flow thru Baghdad and then %’s will be distributed accordingly.  We’ll just have to let this play out and see what they do, not what they say.

MadDScout (Dinar Guru) –  [What’s left before NEEDED to be taken off programmed rate?]  Answer: That is what we are watching for. But from CBI (Alak’s) view, they are looking for stability…social, political, economic, security, take your pick as to how much of each of those goes into the criterion they are looking toward.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “The call for legislation of “important” laws before the end of the parliamentary session”   Quotes:   “The oil and gas laws, the Reconstruction Council, the Federal Service Council and the Federal Court Act, as well as the amending law of the amnesty law, are among the most outstanding laws that should be resolved as soon as possible,” the bloc said in a statement.”   “noting that “the need to resolve to see the light soon.”   …the only wildcard is if the US, UN etc get involved.  We have seen in the past when something must be passed, it is done so with a little pressure.  If the doors are ready to open, be assured what law or laws need to be passed will get done.

MadDScout (Dinar Guru) –  [We have always heard when article 140 and HCL are put into place and activated we should see the rate within hours of implementation. We know Mosul is a key part. Can they implement HCL and Article 140 on a program rate?]   Answer:   That theory is old and unfounded, and tends to put events in the wrong order, according to what we know right now. Being as this is never mentioned in any of Alaks statements when asked about what the CBI needs to make full monetary reforms, I have put it out of my vocabulary.  As to the third part of your question, can they implement 140 at program rate, I think it is so far in the future (Art140) they will have a “rate” by then. But IMO one doesn’t equal the other. They are stand alone issues, unhinged one from another. Rate is only important to us.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –  Article:  “Abadi: Two months separating Iraq’s exit from Chapter VII”  [It would seem that Iraq’s removal of Chapter 7 would occur before the dinar becomes marketable and begins to float…]    …though it’s important for Iraq to have it’s own currency once sovereign, I do not think they are directly related. When the dinar floats is a more of a decision of the CBI based on monetary policy. IMO, I do not expect it to begin until just before foreign investment begins to pour into Iraq.
