Iraq slams Bahrain statement on paramilitary base attacks
Thursday، 29 August 2019 11:51 PM
Khalid bin Ahmed Al Khalifa
Iraq has condemned comments by Bahrain's top diplomat describing alleged Israeli strikes on the powerful Iran-backed militias in Iraq and Syria (IMIS) paramilitary force as "self-defence."A string of IMIS bases across Iraq have been hit by explosions and drone sightings over the past five weeks that the force has blamed on Israel and the US.
Earlier this week, Bahraini Foreign Minister Khalid bin Ahmed Al Khalifa accused Iran of "declaring war on us" through allied armed groups, including the IMIS in Iraq. "Whoever strikes them and destroys their stacks of equipment cannot be blamed. This is self-defence," he wrote on Twitter. The comments prompted a sharp response from the Iraqi foreign ministry in an online statement late Wednesday."The foreign ministry rejects and condemns the Bahraini foreign minister's tweet about the recent attacks on Arab territories and the IMIS by Zionist enemy under the pretext of self-defence," it wrote. It was the first time the Iraqi government had referred to attacks on the IMIS as carried out by Israel, although a statement by the presidency earlier this week said it was investigating "indications of foreign involvement." The IMIS has accused Israel of carrying out the latest attack on one of its units near the Iraqi-Syrian border on August 25. The IMIS was established in 2014 from disparate armed groups and volunteers, most of them Shiites, to fight the ISIS group and has received Iranian training.Ties between Iraq and Bahrain have been strained in recent months, with demonstrators swarming the Bahrani embassy in Baghdad in June to protest Manama's hosting of a US-led Middle East peace conference. A few months prior, Iraq had demanded a formal apology from Bahrain's foreign minister for a tweet about firebrand Shiite cleric Moqtada al-Sadr that Baghdad deemed "offensive." Parliamentary energy: a large fiscal deficit weighs on the 2020 budget
29/08/2019
Kalkamsh Press / Baghdad
The Parliamentary Energy Committee expected on Thursday that the budget of 2020 will suffer a large deficit due to the process of stabilizing the job grades and the high percentage of the operational budget.
The committee member, Sadiq al-Sulaiti, in a statement followed by "Kalakamsh Press" that "the financial abundance of the high price of oil will be sufficient only to fill the budget deficit, and I do not think there is any supplementary budget."
He explained that "the origin of the budget was prepared on the amount of a deficit of approximately 24 trillion dinars, and the investment budget of up to 27 or 28 trillion, so most of them will depend on the financial abundance achieved from oil."
He added that `` in the event of financial abundance from the rise in the price of oil will achieve the budget of 2019 only, '' he expects that `` 2020 budget will suffer from a large deficit due to the process of stabilizing the job grades and the high percentage of the operational budget are all the reasons that combine to increase the deficit. ''
"The solutions depend on the performance of the government and its government program, such as relying on internal borrowing or opening the door for investment for the purpose of mitigating the investment budget."
He pointed out that "Iraq depends in its budgets on oil exports only, so it is in the public interest to be in the process of maintaining oil production in quantities appropriate to maintain oil prices steadily and benefit Iraq."
He pointed out that "any breaches or an increase in oil production and quantities exported to OPEC countries will cause lower prices, forcing to export more at lower prices, so Iraq is one of the countries that comply with OPEC instructions"

8-30-2019 Intel Guru Frank Article "Issuing a package of decision related to the entry and exit of funds across the Iraqi borders" ...today the CBI came out and said...for now on anything less than $10,000 American dollars can enter Iraq and it can leave Iraq...$10,000 to $20,000 American dollars requires documentation...anything more than 1 million IQD coming in or out of Iraq is not allowed...Is 1 million IQD equal to $20,000 American Dollars?...Is this the initial exchange rate?...that was an interesting article.
8-29-2019 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat 5. we find out that the currency reform is in FACT now part of the country wide reform package. Article Quote: "part of the currency restructuring plan and banks includes the creation of coins for trades. Finance to support the national economy." But remember they are not saying anything in the article on the process about reinstating the dinar on the global currency exchanges. At least not now. They probably won’t either since they are so close. If they do it will be be after the event...As you should know this is when we go to the bank and not before... [post 3 of 3]
8-29-2019 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat 4.they are telling us the coins will be used in trade with other countries. Does this mean the currency auctions using only US dollars for trade will stop? It appears they will have to if this article is correct. Remember using the dinar will create a demand for it. When this happens it will become more valuable outside of Iraq...the value will rise, thus the rate will have to rise too. [post 2 of 3....stay tuned]
8-29-2019 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat so this is one of the WOW articles we have been waiting for. 1. they just told us they passed the needed legislation in parliament needed by the CBI to get the coins re-minted and in circulation... 2. it is the re-education article we have all been waiting for so long. Its here and we should be all jumping up and down for joy; 3. repeatedly whenever they talk about the coins they also talk about the project to delete the zeros in the same breath so we know for sure they fully intend to do both concurrently. This is exactly what we need to get the increase in rate of the dinar; [post 1 of 3....stay tuned]
8-29-2019 Newshound Guru Kaperoni And as I've said before they cannot reduce the money supply...because Iraq currently utilizes a currency auction to stabilize the currency and provide a source of foreign exchange for imports. This technique requires a balance... between the dinar and the dollar any shortage of one or the other creates demand and effects the stability. Therefore reduction of the money supply cannot occur at this time. Once they float the currency and begin international commerce Iraq no longer will need the auctions and can reduce the money supply gradually as the currency appreciates. [post 2 of 2]
8-29-2019 Newshound Guru Kaperoni I do not believe Iraq would LOP or re-denominate the currency, the IMF certainly has not stated such and Iraq has demonstrated for several years a successful monetary policy including over the last year and a half where they've maintained a 2% spread or less. But I also don't believe they could ever substantially RV/RI the currency because there's just too much currency in circulation. People doubt the fact that the CBI and IMF have reported in excess of 42 trillion. It's in print for all to see. [post 1 of 2....stay tuned]
8-29-2019 Newshound Guru MyLadies ...I WANT TO TALK ABOUT HOW A CURRENCY REDENOMINATES....HERE FROM THE IMF..."On occasion, a country must introduce a new currency. Turkmenistan..decided in 2008 to undertake a currency reform. A major gap between the official exchange rate and the informal or market rate meant that Turkmenistan’s price system had become complex and inefficient." [NOTE: Other gurus say the Iraqi Dinar "gap" is less than 2% and within the IMF's guidelines] "...Hyperinflation and exchange rate collapse slash the value of a national currency, forcing the issuance of banknotes in ever higher denominations." [NOTE: Other gurus say Iraq's inflation has been under control for 10 years and there is no hyperinflation ] ..."In itself, a redenomination makes no one richer or poorer..." ...I JUST WANT YOU TO UNDERSTAND THAT THERE WAS NO MONEY TO MADE WHEN TURKMENISTAN REDENOMINATED. [Post 1 of 2....stay tuned] [See the left side of this page for the CBI's latest official and market rates.]
8-29-2019 Intel Guru MarkZ All my Iraqi contacts are still expecting the new rate this week. They want to have it out by the first…Many articles about the new coins coming out…why would you need a coin worth a fraction of a penny? ...they have to have a new rate if they release the coins… My people are at work in redemption centers today...Tomorrow we will find out if they are on call again this weekend or if they are scheduled to work. My gut feeling is we will see it on Saturday...just my opinion...last day of the month and Sunday is iraqs first day of the week and the first day of the new month.
8-29-2019 Newshound Guru Adam Montana ...We saw almost no HCL news prior to the $60 mark, and then it started to come out in the news. That meant the Iraqi Parliament was working on items that are necessary to accomplish a finalization, and that is a key component to the RV. ...A lot of things contribute to the price of OIL, the world economy, and everything else that can have an impact on when Iraq decides to raise the value - this is just one of those things, but I believe it is a major component. Lots of people are saying September is looking good. I am leaning toward agreeing. Time, and hopefully not much of it, will tell. [post 2 of 2]
8-29-2019 Newshound Guru Adam Montana Article: "Parliament: Oil Committee intends to host Abdul Mahdi and the Ministers of Finance and Oil" ...The topic at hand is quiet simple - OIL. ...earlier this year, I personally set a target of $60 (WTI) that I felt was necessary before Iraq would feel confident enough to start moving on a significant change in the exchange rate. (“RV” is short for “ReValuation”, which will be a significant change in the exchange rate…for those of you new to the situation) [post 1 of 2....stay tuned]
8-29-2019 Intel Guru Frank ...It is my opinion that the banks of the United States of American are going to be charging anywhere from 1% to 2% - at the highest 3% spread [To exchange]...this could be good news for us. Let's see what happens when we finally find out. I can't see them reinstating the currency in Iraq and then all of a sudden changing the spread...
8-29-2019 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat Article: "RECENT PARLIAMENTARY VOTES HAVE BEEN RAISED CALLING FOR THE REINTRODUCTION OF COINS" ...here is one of the articles I told everyone to be watching for. This includes the passing of the needed law by parliament to re-mint the coins and reintroduce them. Its now DONE as they just told us in this article.

The United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights on Thursday warned of the return of the phenomenon of repeated targeting and threatening people in Kirkuk by ISIS, attributing this to a clear security imbalance and weak coordination between the nearby formations.
"What happened in the village of Imam Zein al-Abidin (peace be upon him), located in Daquq district of Kirkuk province on August 24, 2019, targeting civilians, killing 7 youths and injuring 10 others, is a clear evidence of the incident," UNHCR member Ali al-Bayati said in a statement today.

He explained that "the results of the preliminary investigations of the Commission, which moved to the scene of the incident after the appeal of the people, and proceeding from the legal authorization of the Commission according to Law No. 53 of 2008, and listen to the official security authorities, confirmed that the city that has an important strategic location suffers from a clear security vacuum, especially after the withdrawal Federal police, including a month ago, after the people demanded this after the killing of a member of the police in the judiciary by a member of the Federal Police after a fight. " Al-Bayati said, "The terrorist group that targeted Al-Shabab in the football stadium and houses near the stadium, before it planted explosive devices in the way of the movement of security forces, then entered into a confrontation with these forces present for a period of time, and used various weapons from [PKC RPG and mortars], and this is clear evidence of a security flaw and poor coordination between security formations, slow and poor response formations nearby, and the lack of air coverage in the event of any emergency.
