The head of the General Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces, Major General Mohammad Baqari, praised the role played by his country's forces in "keeping pace with the Islamic resistance" in Iraq and Syria, saying that it has become a "security shield for the Iranian people."
"The IRGC, through its support and current support for the Islamic resistance in Iraq and Syria, has made itself a security shield for the Iranian people and for the Islamic nation," Bagheri said.

7-8-2017   Intel/Newshound Guru tman23   So the fact is that at some point of time, the CBI is going to lift the 3 zeros. It is not going to be a slow process such as lifting 1 zero in September, 2nd zero in October and the last zero in the future...It is going to be all 3 zeros at the same time! And when they lift the 3 zeros it will happen OVER NIGHT per se'...And how they treat the 3 zero notes at the exchange window will determine if there was an over night RV per se'...

7-8-2017   Newshound Guru Aggiedad77   IMO today we have seen good things pointing to the LL [Long Line?]  waiting on Iraq and getting restless for some action...they know the investment they stand before is ripe ...we of the LL are standing directly in the middle of Iraq's door awaiting it to open...disorderly like a Wal-Mart Black Friday sale...oh heavens no...We are professionals who have stood in this LL against the hands of time and know the bell will soon be tolling in our favor... IMO.
7-7-2017   Intel Guru RayRen98  There are news articles today that suggest Mosul is now liberated and the PM may make an...announcement or proclamation about Mosul maybe made today.  Friday afternoon there is another news broadcast for Iraq...Looking to hear more information...making it an exciting weekend and throw us into an exciting reality for next week.  We know where we are basically and awaiting final announcements...and await to see what happens next.  We are on the way.  Headed there and we are close.  We are waiting for the green light of the public release of the RV.   [post 2 of 2]

7-7-2017   Intel Guru Dr. Clarke    “LOGIC”:  Oh, Iraq could absolutely DO NOTHING with their Dinar Currency...for the rest of 2017. They could just SIT on things, just because. No problem. They could just sit, start rebuilding their trashed country, and all at the while ousting more crooks, politicians and terrorists, until next year, when everything settles down a little more, and they have things more under control, more stable, more organized.  ...it’s somewhat of a “Safe Bet”, looking at the Past History of things.  HOWEVER, We Don’t Think So! This is a BIG Weekend!...(Sat. night into Sunday)  Watch the CBI Website Change in the next few days...oh, dis about to get...Woo Woo.  “FOR PLEASURABLE ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY”...you aint seen Nothin Yet!

7-7-2017   Intel Guru Frank26   [Please tell me about status of HCL and Kurds voting to leave iraq.]    ...HCL IS FINE...WAITING FOR A RATE...IT IS BURIED WITH A RIDER IN BUDGET...KURDS ARE GOING...NOWHERE! ...IMO.

7-7-2017   Newshound Guru Adam Montana   [I personally find it more than frustrating that HCL was supposed to be on the agenda at the beginning of each of the last few sessions, but ultimately wasn't.]   I feel your frustration with the HCL, particularly since it's truly the key piece to this puzzle. But I also feel like we are on the right track finally, and now it's just a matter of a short time.
 
7-7-2017   Intel Guru RayRen98   ...“things are shaping up and I can’t wait to hear more.”  That’s from the intel sources across the pond.  Things are mysteriously quiet for the “good stuff.”  Still waiting on information about the data cards.  Not a surprise we have found some citizens who know nothing about the data card and that it exists.  And other citizens who are very aware of it...Hard to find solid information on it.  For instance, on the CBI site...the $1.20 information – sometimes it’s there and sometimes it isn’t.  The ration card going out is going to have 1,000 dinar on it.  If you look at the 1.2 rate that puts it in the .80 cent bracket...only have $800 some on it.  To me comes out $830 and make the rate of 1.2 effective for calculation purposes.  We await updates on that information.   [post 1 of 2....stay tuned]

7-7-2017   Intel/Newshound Guru tman23    G20 is today, Friday and Saturday... Finance Ministers, Bankers, and World Leaders...along with IMF and World Bank... Then Sunday Iraq representatives along with the International Coalition will be traveling to Washington DC to meet for Post Mosul and reconstruction of Iraq agenda... The itinerary will be laid out...the planning stage was being done long ago...And for those who wonder about Mosul and small area to be taken...this should give you an idea of what they are dealing with...Iraqi soldiers increasingly accuse civilians still inside the Old City of being relatives of IS fighters.

7-7-2017   Newshound Guru Aggiedad77   Article:  "Iraq’s Economy is Rising"  Quote:  "The main driving force behind Iraq’s economic growth is the wealth of natural resources reflected in a large number of oil and gas fields which are now open to international trade.  Companies from around the world are investing into the development of these resources"   ...it appears to me they are in the process of stirring up some good PR for themselves...watch for the results as next week unfolds before our eyes...keep in mind the 10th-15th...and what falls right in the middle of it all...the 12th...it can't get any better IMO...watch for the BEST to come...another hot week IMO.

7-7-2017   Newshound Guru Phillyman   Article:  "IRAQ SLOWS ADVANCE ON LAST ISIS POCKET IN MOSUL PACKED WITH CIVILIANS"   As close as they are to wrapping this up the concentration of civilians and trying to preserve their lives has had its impact on operations.

7-7-2017  Intel Guru Frank26    [...what's the date of the DC meeting or did it happen already?]  WE FEEL THAT NEXT M [MONDAY?]  THEY WILL START TO ARRIVE IN TEAMS OVER A FEW DAYS.  [...do you expect to see the rate before they go to DC?]  ...NO.   DC IS A REPORT CARD...NOT THE EVENT OF THE RV  IMO...IT IS TOO EARLY FOR PEOPLE OUTSIDE OF IRAQ TO SEE THE PRICE CHANGES AT THIS MOMENT...MUCH MORE NEXT WEEK AND LOTS MORE AFTER THE 21ST PAYDAY.  [...who from our side will be at DC mtg with Iraq?]    EVERYONE! UST, FEDS, WB, IMF, ME...I MEAN MIDDLE EAST...LOL.  [When do you suspect the DC meetings will conclude and Iraq delegation returns to Iraq.]  END OF NEXT WEEK... UNLESS THINGS ARE CHANGED ON THE MEETINGS.  [IYO, could it make sense for Abadi to time the announce to the world, that Mosul is fully liberated, soon after CBI delegation return from receiving a good grade on their report card in DC?]    YES.  [...is the 10th-15th still critical watch dates?]  OH YES!
 
7-7-2017   Newshound Guru Adam Montana   [Mosul is liberated...the elections have been postponed until 2018...Banks are being held accountable...Things are looking good!]   YEP!

7-7-2017   Intel Guru Bruce   It's an orchestrated start for all to take part in this blessing together at the same time...The release is right here. It could happen right before the G20 gets under way.  I can't call it, but we are looking very, very good for this to take place.  All the intel is looking great. Everything looks really good…like it could happen at any moment.

7-7-2017   Intel/Newshound Guru tman23   ...it's all about the 3 zeros...and nothing but the 3 zeros!   AND the speculation is how will the 3 zero notes we hold be treated at the exchange window.   ...The only thing the have said is they are going to lift 3 zeros from the currency AND the existing currency will be along side of the new currency in the marketplace for an estimated 2 years (which they expect the timeline for it to be out of circulation) BUT it will be exchangeable for a period of 10 years...(which indicates you may have to go directly to the CBI)...This is the jest of what has been in print...over and over again
