The text of the word Muhammad Allawi's withdrawal from his mandate to form a government  
The text of the word Muhammad Allawi's withdrawal from his mandate to form a government
Baghdad - Mawazine News
Honorable President of the Republic,
Peace, mercy and blessings of God..

Respecting the confidence of your dear Excellency and the commitment that I made to my patient people, I address this speech to your sovereignty and our people.
When I was assigned I had promised the people that I would leave the assignment in the event that political pressure was put in place for the purpose of passing a specific agenda on the government that I intend to form, and therefore my decision was to form an independent government in order to work without partisan obligations or pressure to accelerate the implementation of the people's demands and that I am fully aware That insisting on this condition would cost me to pass my government, because the parties that were plagued by corruption and traded in sectarian and ethnic will be the first affected ... and if I had made concessions, I would now be direct to my job as Prime Minister of Iraq, but I do with all this ...

I tried in every possible way to save our country from slipping into the unknown and in order to solve the current crisis, but during the negotiations I collided with many things that did not take place to the cause of the country and its interest in something, and God testifies that I did not concede and did not offer special interests in the interest of the country, but unfortunately very Some parties were negotiating only to obtain narrow interests without a sense of the national cause, and without any regard for the blood of the martyrs who fell in the midst of pretense in order to change the conditions and achieve the elevation and prosperity of the country.

For this His Excellency the President, I was in front of an equation .... the position of Prime Minister in exchange for lack of honesty with my people and continuing the position at the expense of his suffering, so the choice was simple and clear is to be with my patient people, especially when I saw that some political parties are not serious about reform and fulfill their promises to the people and Putting obstacles in the way of the birth of an independent government working for the homeland was clear, from the failure to achieve the quorum for two consecutive times to campaigns of slander, lying, and falsification of facts, up to this day, and we do not know then where the traffickers can reach their concerns of our people.

Therefore, allow me to raise you to your Excellency, my apologies for assigning you, please accept it
Here is my message to dear MPs
Thank you to those who stood up and supported me without asking for positions and allow me to tell you that you are in front of a historical secretariat that does not relate to your affiliation or your party and does not even relate to you but rather it relates to Iraq alone, this trust requires you to take the lead and take your primary role in order to impose your vision To correct things, the decision is your decision, not someone else’s decision. Whoever negotiates in your name seeks a position and ministry for his own interests, not for a party or component ..

And to my dear people, keep pushing through your peaceful demonstrations so that your sacrifices are not lost in vain, and I will return to the ranks of my people as an Iraqi who did not compromise on his principles and issues, and I ask God Almighty to grant you success in his care and care and to preserve our dear Iraq from every misfortune.

Peace, mercy and blessings of God
your brother
Muhammad Tawfiq Allawi

3-2-2020   Newshound Guru MilitiaMan   Article:   "Urgent .. Sources: Allawi Is Preparing To Announce His Withdrawal From The Mandate To Form A Government"   I am not buying this latest news on withdrawal.. Not yet anyway.. Way to much at stake at this stage. And not to forget the accomplishments of the CBI.. The country still needs to run on money. Oil is putting pressure on everyone in the Region...
3-1-2020   Intel Guru RayRen98   Sunday's vote has been postponed to Monday due to a lack of quorum.  Baghdad news is broadcasting that Sadr is officially placed on the terrorist list for his actions regarding the murder of protestors. He faces severe sanctions from the US. It is rumored that Allawi will announce that he is resigning the Prime Minister appointment.  Iraqi TV is reporting that Allawi will be a giving speech announcing his withdrawal from forming a cabinet. Time Will Tell!

3-1-2020   Intel Guru Frank26   Question How many days will it take the bank to credit our accounts at the exchange?  You trade in a million dinar and it's worth a million dollars you get a million dollars credited to your bank account...electronically it's instantly...

3-1-2020   Newshound Guru Whitelions   COUNCIL OF REPRESENTATIVES SESSION ADJOURNS FOR DAY AFTER FAILING TO ACHIEVE QUORUM...ULAIMANI — A session of the Council of Representatives on Sunday (March 1) to vote on Prime Minister-designate Mohammed Tawfiq Allawi’s proposed cabinet has been postponed after failing to achieve quorum.

3-1-2020   Intel Guru Delta & Newshound Guru MilitiaMan    Delta:  THIS IS THE PROVE [PROOF ?] OF ARTICLE VIII FROM CBI 55 PAGES DOCUMENTS ...  Quote: "...and Iraq’s commitment to international agreements, in particular the application of provisions of texts Article 8 of the International Monetary Fund agreement..."  MilitiaMan:   Thank you Delta, bringing in the proof is fascinatingly apropos. You supported the data we have that they the CBI has offered the public. They have given notice of a change to come. They are on a time line now... That [document] gives legal text examples of the meaning for Foreign Currency and Hard Currency (USD)  with respect to samples of internationalism to go along with it. They have and will have obligations now that they came out with that data. Whoo yahhh! imo Lets hope we see the train stop and the whistle blows the IQD announcement of a new international rate...!

3-1-2020   Intel Guru Frank26  Question:  Do you think the CBI is itching to push the button right after the announcement of the new seated government?  I don't know if the CBI is itching but I know we are.    The United States is.  The Fab 4 - all those who have taken them to that level they're at now.  I know I am as an investor.  I know contractors are definitely itching for that button to be pushed.  As far as the CBI itself, the first flapping of the wings leaving the nest they're not easy...I think they're ready.  And I think they're willing.  And I think they're being pushed to the point whether they like it or not...

3-1-2020    Newshound Guru MilitiaMan   ...From the CBIs perspective they are and have been ready and it is my understanding the CBI has publicly shown the citizens they are accepting the IMF obligations of Article 8. That was back on the 23rd of February 2020 in a 55 page report in Arabic.  It mentions getting the flow of money to the citizens, lifting restrictions on their funds and allow freedom of external transfers of such funds. That report has me of the mind once it was published for the citizens, it was notice to the BIS...the citizens, and then to us that they are going to be lifting the exchange rate at a very close point in time, imo. Add in the printing of new notes, minting coins, all have been done with the afore being and end game notification if you will.. imo...

Denial

The media office of the Prime Minister, Adel Abdel-Mahdi, denies what some media outlets have reported about informing his Excellency the political blocs or others about a new position on continuing to head the government, and that his position is the same that was officially announced in his letter sent to the distinguished parliament on February 19.

And he will announce his official position after the expiry of the deadline he set then and that ends on March 2.

So it required notice.

Doctors always stress the need to drink water during different periods of the day, because of its benefits to human health. But what about drinking water on an empty stomach?

3- Bowel cleansing: This habit also helps cleanse the intestine and strengthen the digestive system, as it prevents constipation and poor digestion.

4- Reducing calories: Drinking water leads to a feeling of satiety, which contributes to reducing calories. Therefore, it is recommended to drink water at least 30 minutes before breakfast.

5- Improving mental performance: Experts say that one cup of water after waking helps to enhance mental and cognitive functioning.

6- Helping with digestion: Drinking warm water in the morning can help with digestion, as warm water plays an important role in stimulating the gut.

7- Strengthening the immune system: Drinking water on an empty stomach helps maintain the balance of the lymphatic system, and thus one becomes less susceptible to infection and pathogens.

8- Prevents headaches: dehydration in the body causes headaches or migraines. Drinking water on an empty stomach will prevent this.

9- Maintain the health of the internal organs: Drinking water on an empty stomach helps maintain the internal organs of the body.

10- Skin Improvement: Lack of fluid in the body leads to the appearance of wrinkles early. Studies have shown that drinking 500 ml of water on an empty stomach greatly stimulates blood circulation and makes the skin more supple and supple.
