TNT CONFERENCE CALL MONDAY 9/25/17 DC NY CALL RECAP:
Good afternoon TNT Superfantastic Family. Today is Marvelous Monday. Where are we? I sent out an update to all of you over the weekend from the reports I am receiving from some members, folks attacked the info I gave you. Did they have their own? Looks like the info was accurate to a degree, so now what are they going to say. So the update I sent you was info that came to me, and I started off supposedly because it was not coming in at all angles. So Abadi supposedly announced no release of the Economic Reform due to the Political unrest in the country, and I shared with you citizens over there are upset. They were informed their pays on Sunday were not going to be at the new rate, and that was cancelled. Low and behold what happened on Sunday? In the wee hours of the morning, I got the first report of citzens saying Hey we got our pay not at the new rate. Is that not what we said. They were told that was not going to happen, and they did not get the new rate on Sunday that was anticipated and expected. You have all been watching the news and keeping up with the politics. not only in the US but particularly in Iraq. There is no need for me to come and talk about a whole bunch of politics to you. You already been watching the news and keeping up with the politics not only the US but particularly Iraq. There is no need to talk a whole bunch of politcs to you. You already know it, your reading it. You are hearing it and there are articles galour. The politics of what is happening in that country. The vote taking place today and they are going through with the referendum. It will be several hours after that before we really have any intelligent conversation about it. It is a wait and see situation. As far as the Iraqi situation, that is the public things that we are seeing, reading and hearing about. Over hear and what I consider the private side of things, We have banking folks saying like lets get ready. This just might be it, and they are still on an all time high expectation of some things happening. Of course, we did see a report of the IMF stating, whatever the Kurds are going to do is not going to affect the finaces of the country. Really truth be told, that is what you care about anyway. The finance and what is happening with their political process, you just want to go to the bank to do your exchange. If anything interferes with that becomes a major concern until you exchanged not saying everybody for the most part. That is how most of us got involved with this. We didn't get into this to get into the politics of some other country and who should be doing what and etc... That is why we have our government people to handle those type of things. I am just trying to state the obvious and not trying to make anyone feel bad. The truth is the truth. The opportunity to exchange is what brought most of us to this game and why most of us are still in it. Of course we will do great things after we exchange and we will have the economic resources to do that,. We must first get to the bridge before we try to cross it. That is it information wise, intel for the time being. Q and A: Q When Abadi said the RV was being cancelled due to politics, do you know how long that will be? Ray: He did not say the RV was being cancelled. He did say they were not going to not continue with the Economic Reforms even though they had been completed and the rate change is not going to kick in for Sunday but some may call that the RV well especially the rate change. I have no idea how long that will be. Q: You post on Sept 16 related to a bank contact the IQD was not connected with SDR and hopefully you can share some info on this.Ray: I cannot share anything on this and it came from a bank source. Q: Have you heard anything about taxes and will it happen in September? Ray: No Callers: Caller: Catnip: I appreciate you saying your banking sources are ready for it, and not saying to much of an impact by all of this Kurdish situation, but what is interesting to me is the turnout has been greater and they extended the polling until 7:00 there time and it will probably be a little while before we hear anything. They are saying they had 75% voting, so the Kurds are probably watching what is going on. How much is this impacting the rest of the Iraqi folk? Are they as focused in as us dinarians seem to be or are they going about their busines? Have they shared that with you? Ray: There has been no comment about that. Catnip: However, they did say the citizens are upset about the pay raite didn't go through and that the reform was in progress. Ray: Citizens in Iraq were upset with the situation period. That was the update information., and I don't have reports yet of them being upset with the pay.We just have reports that the new rate did not kick in. Catnip: How is this being handled from the religious standpoint on this? Ray: There has been no comment on that. When they don't comment to me it is not an issue. Ray's Wrap Up: Ray: All this information is for you to formulate a plan. For every action is a reaction. What is going to be your reaction to the action. We give you multiple actions so you have reactions. You already know what to do. You have a plan of action in place and just need to know the reality. You might have to wait 24-48 to ascertain the true reality. Once the light goes green, we are in no hurry. We have to wait and see. One thing for certain if there are collective situation goin to happen, we will help each other of how to handle certain situations that exist. We have been in the dark this whole ride and when the RV happens we can step into light. For the non contract people, waiting is the best thing we can do. When we wait we can learn so many things the best buy and sell rates. That one four letter word can become your best thing on this ride. WAIT. Are you willing? Do you Believe, I sure do! Enjoy your Marvelous Monday. If anything pops out, we will send a text message out to all of you and update you the best way we know how. If warranted we will reconvene for another live session, but until then enjoy your Monday. I Believe! Rayren98

Riksbank, Sweden’s central bank, estimates that cash transactions made up only 15 percent of all retail transactions last year, down from 40 percent in 2010, thanks in large part to massively popular mobile payment services.

want peace, and prosperity... The situation is set up for this to occur...
Regardless of the referendum's outcome, there will be a united Iraq...
Barzani understands this... The relationship with Abadi is good, and with all of
the entities holding Baghdad accountable, IMHO, this is all smoke, and
mirrors... Investment has continued within this country, and confidence
is high... Except how it is portrayed within the media...
I believe that at some point in the future the Kurds will be
independent... But at this point in time, it will not be... There are
valid reasons for this... The plan is for economic prosperity not
only for Iraq, but for the world at large as
well...

Sure we could go into October – we just don’t have enough data to determine that, one way or another. We just have to wait and see how it plays out; as for dates, we are in limbo, but we still feel good about the revaluation itself. [post 2 of 2]

RayRen98 Citizens were
upset because they were hearing that their pay would not be at the new rate as
they had expected. Sure enough, someone called me and said they
had been paid in Iraq, but not at the new rate. You already know about
the politics of Iraq. They are voting on the Kurdish independence
referendum, and it will be hours before we have information on
that. We did see an IMF report saying that whatever the
Kurds do, it won’t affect the finances of the country. I believe that
the Kurds are serious about wanting their independence; this is just bad
timing. But they are not after what we are after...They want freedom
from oppression and a voice in their own future. That’s different from
what we are looking for. [post 1 of 2....stay

2 SITREEPS FOR THE PRICE OF ONE
"Humanoid Hybrids" - GCR/RV SITREP - Monday - September
25, 2017
Let me be perfectly clear... there is no more USD
anywhere in the world as of midnight September 30.
That means no good standing country in the world not
named Israel, Ukraine or North Korea will dare recognize it at the risk of being
removed from the new asset backed financial system headquartered out of
Asia.
And because financially none of those before mentioned
countries matter in the bigger economic or mineral scheme of things, they too
won't be recognized if their cabal government leaders don't fully surrender
control of their bogus seats of power.
Japan too for vastly different reasons however.
Very old debts to settle between
Japanese and Chinese sovereign
families.
Talk about a giant game of chicken that has only but one
outcome in favor of the good
guys. As these "humanoid hybrids" are continued to be
programmed to spew hatred and war, making them all suicidal and come off nucking
futs.
Yikes Batman!
Regardless of who pulls their levers of control all of
these rogue GCR/RV nations are run by mindless clones, making them irrelevant to
the facts that the world has already changed and permanently.
The NPTB is finally eliminating all remnants of the old
Breton Woods financial system as
of Sunday night this week.
The witch is dead folks! Like this week
dead!
Will you be ready to hit the ground running to provide
mercy to the suffering masses?
Human Angel Services sure as heck will be. You can book
that fact!
So subscribe before October 1, 2017 to gain initial
project funding and compliance
priority.
Subscribe after and your project goes to the back of the
line.
Only true believers need apply because half hearted
humanitarians just won't cut it in
the harsh and real life world of infinitely abundant "Top
Down Philanthropy."
As such, Human Angels are down right now for "healing the
soul of the world." Sobeit.

Meanwhile yesterday afternoon, a $368 Trillion, 10 year
Federal Budget gift was
released into the American money
system.
In doing all of 5 seconds of research, and remembering
when Paul Ryan was sworn in as House Speaker/Republic President at the start of
the 2016 budget year, and given
his long history with Federal Budgets, I offer this
graph.
Also hearing 29 zeros are waiting for the world to redeem
tonight in the below revaluing currencies at their new rates whenever it's time
to set the doves free….
ZIM 3.95; VND 24.84;
IQD 30.62
So... are you ready to start funding and physically
manifesting projects after the RV? If so,
wonderful.
If not, best to subscribe to Human Angel Services (HAS)
and help society's problems to find solutions without stressing your life out in
the process.

The document .. Sadr's position of
the referendum in the Kurdistan region
BAGHDAD (Reuters) - September 25 -
Sadr's leader Moqtada al-Sadr on Monday described the referendum on the
Kurdistan region as a "booming arm" of Iraq.
Sadr said in a statement that "the
Kurds may see that the achievement of their trustees (a Kurdish state) have many
benefits to them, and although we respect all their wishes, but the aspirations
do not materialize and not based on the interests of others, and that the
aspirations of mere wisdom, May drag the owner to destruction. "
He added that "the referendum is
only a first step may require separation or not called as some Kurdish leaders
claim, but the mere idea of the referendum and its establishment is an arm of
the central government and even the whole of Iraq (the people and government)
(The region) and (center) and the first disadvantage is to inflame the ethnic
self that is not less than fueling the sectarian self-seriousness.
"
"I do not want to differentiate
between one component and another, but the Kurdish component - and especially
some of its leaders - have sinned and crossed the border, which may have harmed
them, as well as Iraq, its unity and security," Sadr said.
He stressed that "I can not stand
idle and without doing what is dictated by my legitimate and national duty, it
is the age of a bad year - the division of Iraq - it is visited by the minister
of the work to the Day of Resurrection, so it is in the interest of the public
and to maintain the unity of Iraq and its people in all its components And its
beautiful mosaics, including (the Kurds) call for "a meeting of scientists to be
majestic Hozawi to stand on the guidance of all Sunni and Shiite references and
obtain fatwas, tips and decisions to shed light on this subject."
He also called for a "Shiite-Sunni
meeting, political and public emergency and fast because the circumstance calls
for the reunification and forget some things, the most important may postpone
the important, even for some time with a meeting of Kurdish opponents and other
minorities to stand on their suffering and knowledge of their views and unite
their ranks, With the previous point. "
He urged the Arab and Islamic
countries to an emergency meeting in Iraq or any other place to support Iraq in
its ordeal - not as happened in the other tribulation - to return to the Arab
and Islamic embrace again and to come out with decisive decisions, and a meeting
with neighboring countries and the region, In general, without interfering in

its control over the air and land ports, protect the border and make the
security forces on the alert," he said, calling it not to be within the confines
