"INFO. FROM A CBI CONTACT" BY MNT GOAT, 28 JAN

  INFO FROM A CBI CONTACT

I then asked my CBI contact about the issue of the Hezbollah bombings of American bases in Iraq. I was referred to the GOI for policy related to this issue.

 My contact did not feel the US forces would be leaving Iraq anytime soon and that they are working on a timetable to remove all combat forces in the future, but this is not the time. 

Iraq still needs American protection. Either way the forces will probably then operate out of Kuwaiti bases anyhow and have no intention of leaving the tense “hot spot” of the middle east right now. 

Speaking of U.S. military forces in Iraq: The U.S. and Iraq began a process of starting talks aimed at ending the U.S.-led military coalition’s mission in Iraq and how to replace it with bilateral ties.   Two sources said the United States conveyed its readiness to start talks to the Iraqi government in a letter handed over by US Ambassador to Iraq Alina Romanoski to Iraqi Foreign Minister Fuad Hussein last Wednesday. 

This came after US Army drones launched strikes on two headquarters of the Popular Mobilization Forces in Babil and Anbar governorates, killing two members and wounding four. These strikes targeted the headquarters of the Hezbollah Brigades, warehouses, missile training sites, and unilateral attack drones.

From Reuters: The process of ending the US military presence in Iraq may take from several months to years. Let’s all pray the RV happens prior this draw down of troops. We all know what happened in 2011 when President Obama withdrew the US military. We can all see that with the Iranian militia still in place, should a full withdrawal occur, it would be detrimental to Iraq’s security and sovereignty. It may be a repeat of 2014.

Still the hot topic in the CBI, as my contact told me yesterday during my call to Iraq, is that the CBI is working towards getting the parallel black market rate in check with the “official” CBI rate of the dinar.

 I asked my contact why the past plan to end this crisis has not yet ended it?

 I was told it is taking more than expected for the measures underway to take hold, but that they will eventually end the crisis and the rate will come down. I then asked about the “basket of currencies” we been hearing about to re-peg the dinar. I was told this is coming but they can’t peg the current in-country rate until they resolve the parallel market crisis and move to FOREX. 

This is exactly what I wanted and needed to hear. This falls directly in-line with the 2011 Dr. Shabibi plan I have talked so much about already. So all is very good in my eyes as far as this process goes.
