Al-Zubaidi: America has ambitions in Iraq and will not leave easily, 10 FEB

  Al-Zubaidi: America has ambitions in Iraq and will not leave easily

Information / Baghdad...

A member of the Conquest Alliance, Ali al-Zubaidi, on Friday, expressed his conviction that the American occupier will not come out easily, pointing out, "The occupier has ambitions in Iraq."

Al-Zubaidi told Al-Maalouma that "the exit of the occupier will not take place easily, especially since Washington has ambitions in Iraq, represented by the strategic location and many natural resources, indicating that "America seeks to achieve its interests by continuing to stay inside Iraq."

He stressed the importance of "continuing military pressure on the ground to ensure the departure of the occupier and evacuation from the bases he controls inside Iraq."He promised that "the Islamic resistance in Iraq is carrying out major military action against the US occupation forces stationed in military bases in Ain al-Assad and Harir, which are sites for the launch of occupation attacks inside and outside Iraq."

He added, "The US presence in the bases of Ain al-Assad and Harir is a threat to the security and sovereignty of Iraq."

THE IMPORTANCE OF THE WHITE PAPERS

.... the CBI still has their goals to rebuild the economy of Iraq, see the White Paper. In this document it clearly states the “Pillars of Iraqi Financial Reform” for Iraq and how they plan to affect each of them to get where they want to go. It’s no secret. So, what comes first the chicken or the egg.

REFORMS FIRST:  In other words, Iraq will never be able to rebuild its economy unless it completes these financial reforms first. 

But in reality, under Dr. Shabibi he knew damned well the necessity of getting back their currency (liberate it) and then use it to impact the growth of the economy. 

So, we are witnessing firsthand the mistake made way back in 2012-2013 in not following the plan of Dr. Shabibi. This is really what all the ruckus is about with this parallel rate and the inability to manage it.

 Al-Sayhoud confirms that the government will proceed to remove the occupier from Iraq

Information / Baghdad...

MP for the State of Law Coalition, Mohammed Al-Sayhoud, confirmed on Friday that the government will proceed to remove the US occupation forces from Iraq.

Al-Sayhoud told Al-Maalouma that "the repeated targeting by US forces of Iraqi security sites and national figures is a targeting of autonomy, pointing to "the decision of the House of Representatives to remove US forces from Iraq."

"The government and the government are proceeding with their dialogues with the international coalition to set a timetable for the exit of these forces," he said.

He explained that "the issue of the exit of US forces from Iraq and the handover of military bases is just around the corner, because there are assurances from the Iraqi government to proceed with this issue." 

"RV UPDATE" BY SANDY INGRAM, 10 FEB

 SANDY INGRAM

 The CBI must carefully manage the timing of revaluation...[Iraq] has over $100 billion in foreign currency reserves.  The IMF has continually said Iraq needs more income streams to offset the oil industry.  The Development Road Project and several other manufacturing projects are all a part of increasing Iraq's income streams. 

These are some of the major factors holding up the Iraqi dinar revalue...There's a lot at stake...First...Iraq relies on its oil export for revenue...If oil prices were to decrease suddenly, it could cause a  drain on Iraq's foreign exchange reserves as they try to stabilize their currency's value...Second...Iraq's political stability and security issues... Uncertainties make it challenging for investors to trust...making them hesitant to buy the dinar...

Thirdly...A sudden and significant increase in their currency's value could adversely affect their exports and trade balances.  It could also lead to inflation...  Balancing the exports and trade revenue is one of the key factors in deciding and implementing a currency revaluation.

Furthermore...Neighboring countries may retaliate by imposing tariffs or restrictions in response to Iraq's higher value in currency...A sudden revaluation potentially could destabilize other currencies...

Iraq could have a domino effect on the economies and currency values of countries like the U.S., China and Russia because these countries hold significant amounts of dinar in their reserves... The central bank of Iraq is under tremendous pressure to fit in when it comes to the revaluation of its currency. 

https://dinarevaluation.blogspot.com/2024/02/rv-update-by-sandy-ingram-6-feb.html

  Kuwait receives oil revenue in its currency.  Wrong. Kuwait is a member of OPEC and receive its oil revenue in US dollars just like Iraq.  It's all about how you spend your profits.  This is why the IMF encourages Iraq to create more streams of income...

Parliamentary Talk About Financial Dues To Oil-Producing Governorates, 9 FEB

 Parliamentary Talk About Financial Dues To Oil-Producing Governorates

Economy  2024-02-09  Today, Friday, the Parliamentary Oil, Gas and Natural Resources Committee called for granting the oil-producing governorates their dues in the budget for the current year.

Committee member Bassem Al-Gharibawi said in a press interview, “The budget includes a law under which oil-producing governorates are granted financial dues in the event that the price of oil rises above the number specified in the budget, but this matter has not been implemented.”

He added, "There is an urgent need for action by Parliament, especially the Finance and Strategic Planning Committees, to follow up on the dues of the oil-producing governorates in order to ensure that they obtain their dues within the budget."

He confirmed, "There are actual parliamentary movements to ensure that the dues reach the producing governorates," explaining, "The Parliamentary Oil Committee did not approach the federal government regarding this matter, but it moved toward the Ministry of Oil to find out the extent of its implementation of the government program and curriculum."  https://kirkuktv.net/AR/Details/19585

BRUCE'S BIG CALL, 9 FEB

Bruce’s Big Call Dinar Intel Thursday Night 2-8-24   REPLAY LINK   Intel Begins  1:10:00

https://www.freeconferencecallhd.com/wall/recorded_audio?audioRecordingUrl=https%3A%2F%2Frs0002.freeconferencecall.com%2Fstorage%2FsgetHD%2FHsCgW%2FHdbI 

Welcome everybody to the big call tonight.  It is Thursday, February the 8th and you're listening to the big call. Thanks for tuning in all over the globe wherever you're receiving the call, whether it's on through the starlink satellite system from our SAT team, or whether it's just on free conference call or whether you're catching it on replay link or replay number. Glad to have you here tonight, and we're looking forward to having a really good call tonight. I'm excited about my segmeny. And hopefully everybody will be excited too. But before we get underway. Let's go ahead and pray the call in.

Okay. Thank you, Bob. Excellent. Let's transition into the Intel segment for tonight.

You know, I mentioned earlier something that Sue said about being the light of the world. And I said, we heard from the banker this morning, early. That said, Soon we will all be the light of the new world. And I think that was pretty cool that he put it that way. I think he's right.

We know that we're to be light and salt in this world. And we are and we should be. But let's start and see where we are and where we’re going.

First of all, Jeanie’s always bringing up what we’re looking forward to maybe what we don't have and what we're looking forward to, and what we're praying for so I remember those things and get into that in a moment.

Whit I think is most important right now is to look at the possibility that I was presented with today. It said that we should get Supreme Court decisions around 11 o'clock in the morning tomorrow, Friday.

Political comments omitted here

 So far today, that we would get those results of Supreme Court decisions 11 o'clock Eastern time, tomorrow. And then within  1 – 2 hours after those decisions have been rendered by the Supreme Court - we would notified for our exchanges which  would put us  sometime in the early afternoon tomorrow, in which case we should see the ability to set appointments either for Friday afternoon, evening, or Saturday,  but we'll see how those come out. Whether they come out as we anticipate and what we're able to do with that.

I think that's extremely good news. And what it tells us is all of this time we've been waiting, thinking we were going to go and all the false starts,. I think that's what we've been waiting for  - even though I was told that would not be the case – for a long long time  -  I believe more recently that we needed that to happen .   So we'll see.

Tomorrow, Friday, February 9 turns into that day for us - where we get notified - after the Supreme Court brings those decisions out, if that occurs,  we are golden  - we move  forward with our notifications  - our  setting appointments and are exchanges soon to follow.

Regarding R&R – restitutional and reclamation allowance – Jeannie  was referring to I believe, we had heard and I noticed that we will get that between the first and seventh of February. Well, the seventh was yesterday- Wednesday, and today is Thursday, the eighth and we have none of it – YET

I don't believe there were increases  in Social Security, YET- either – and we thought those would occur- they were supposed to start sometime - we didn't have  a specific time in February. I think they still could -

Political comments ommitted

But I believe  that allows us to move forward and to get not only  get our RV and to get not only are our toll free number – our exchanges, but also the R&R and the increase in Social Security as well to occur sometime this month.  That's what we're looking forward to.

I know that there are rates on the bank screen I know that they should be locked in.

We should also have rates on redemption center screens, which is the better way to go. I've told you that many times. Keep that in mind. That's why we use the toll free number when we get it to set your appointments because even though you're setting a fixed appointment, that should take no more than 30 minutes. Don't arrive more than 10 minutes early for it.

But you should be absolutely thrilled with the rates that are available for all of our currencies and for the Zim that we're we will be redeeming with everything that is going to happen at the redemption center - And that is the ticket. You know that call that took place. ?? was it Tuesday morning? With all redemption centers. It was with the leaders of those redemption centers around the United States, I don’t know if it was including Canada and Mexico.

 I didn't get that. But it was a call that was originated from Wells Fargo. It did last a little longer than they anticipated. Instead of an hour and went an hour and a half. And I think they got everything. They want to get out to the leaders of the redemption centers, of which we know four of those of four different redemption centers - so I think that's very positive for us. A lot of this has been hinged on the release of the decisions by the Supreme Court on three separate cases. 

One that was filed by President Trump and his group of attorneys one filed by the Bunsen brothers, and one is one relating to the 2022 election. So we'll have to see how that comes out. Tomorrow, but we're being told by our redemption center people that we are in for a very exciting weekend. Well, I'm counting the weekend starting tomorrow. Let's see how that manifests to us. Let's see what we actually get. How soon we get notified how soon we set these appointments. 

And I think we could start if we don't start Friday evening, we could start Saturday. And we'll go right on through Sunday and the rest of the week. That's what I'm getting today. I'm very excited to hear this information earlier this morning. So with that being said, I think we've covered all the other things that we wanted to talk about. So let's go ahead and look forward to that.

 Only way we're going to use to communicate with you until we have our new URLs set up that we can use interactively For rebuild America or rebuild international for veterans retreat network or pastoral retreat network. So hopefully, you guys have registered your email on big call universe.com. But if you haven't, now's a good time. to get registered, because we plan to put out the actual toll free 800 numbers. When we get it, I say,

 I think it is one number to call in to the call center with a send that out too seriously, and will also have them on the landing page of our website. they call universe.com. So if you don't have anything else to do with the big call, don't give us your email. Good. We're not going to use it. But I am going to send out podcasts from time to time that I do or live and I do with it soon, Bob and I might do. Sue's going in her own direction with her projects. 

I'm going in a different direction with my projects. And Bob is going to be helping to facilitate that. So we're looking forward to that Looking forward to connect with you After everything settles down from the actual exchange itself. So let's do this. Let's pray a call out. And let's look forward to what we have to see tomorrow. Like I said, we're looking forward to spring quarter earnings as for decisions around 11 o'clock, Eastern I don't know if it'd be I don't know how we're going to see it or if we even will see it. 

 That's when the decisions just come out. And then a couple hours later, we're expected to get notifications by email from well as far as that we can use to set our appointments. All right. So that's what I wanted to bring the night. appreciate everybody and let's pray the call out.

"Maxine Waters Says Lawmakers Are 'Very, Very Close' To Finalizing Stablecoin Regulation Bill"

If you can remember all the times we talked about digital payment coins being in pilot projects, the sandbox testing of several stablecoins from around the world to see how they interact with each other leads to regulations. Such as, the one taking place in Hong Kong. 


This is why we are getting this announcement from Maxine Waters. It looks like stablecoin regulations are finally being addressed and near its completion for regulation and legislation approval. We are not there yet, but we are close. 


This will help make payments to the new tokenized assets that will be interfaced together through Protocol 20 utilizing Soroban smart contracts to ensure both sides of a trade are secure and capable of moving forward.
