Re: *** Iraqi dinar, recently being said *** /....

How do Iraqi's feel that over 70,000 people in the US have exchanged already?

That estimation was derived simply by wha Tony and DC have given indirectly by saying about 2,000 people have been exchanged each day since Oct. 312st, so you do the math. I suspect this figure is a far cry from where it really is and this says nothing of how many others have exchanged in the UK and other countries who are participating.

Interesting how Tony/DC mentioned these banks who are currently exchanging behind closed doors are running out of names and are looking to replentish them. That's odd because Tony and DC have at least 250,000 people who's names they could give them but strangely enough, these banks don't seem to be interested in our names.

There are 34 million names in Iraq I'm willing to bet these banks are not interested in. The Iraqi people are usually the last ones we here in the west think about unless it's involves bombing them into submission or economic ruin.

I wonder what the people of Iraq's reaction will be on their coming Dec. 9 & 10th, festival holiday if Abadi has to tell them their economic reform has once again been put on stall for the hundredth time? If that is what occurs, then I expect their response to be very unfavorable to all who will be watching.

If Abadi has any brains he'll tell them straight out who has been holding up their country's future prosperity. The US political wrangling and screw ups once again seem to have no bounds as to how destructive they are to the rest of this world. This past weekend was no different, only the date was different, the excuses and their incompetence are still the same. Not having a "T" crossed or an "i" dotted is not a valid reason, it's an excuse to simply hold things up.

I thank Tony and DC, Pam, Ray and all their intel team and sources who are doing what they can to bring us as up to date info as they can and I appreciate all that they do to help us understand as much as we can given the circumstances. You all have had a thankless task, and I once again, thank-you all for it.
