German parliament extends army mission in Iraq, 20 OCT
German parliament extends army mission in Iraq, 20 OCT
ERBIL (Kurdistan 24) – The German parliament on Wednesday extended the mandate of its army for operations in Iraq.
“I convey my gratitude to the government and parliament of the Federal Republic of Germany for extending the mandate of their troops in Iraq,” Nechirvan Barzani, the president of the Kurdistan Region, said in a post on the social media platform, formerly known as X.
“We still face a common threat, and together, we will ensure the lasting defeat of ISIS.”

Safeen Dizayee, the head of the Department of Foreign Relations of the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG), also welcomed the extension on the social media platform X.
In mid-September, the German government said that up to 500 soldiers will be deployed until Oct. 31, 2024.
However, a formal authorization requires German parliament approval, which occurred today.

Last year, Kurdistan Region’s Prime Minister Masrour Barzani thanked Germany for its support in the fight against terrorism.
"Germany's support in 2014 helped our Peshmerga turn the tide against the terror group,” he said. “ISIS is still a serious shared threat, and I urge the Bundestag (the German parliament) to renew the mandate."
During Germany’s National Day on Oct. 5, Klaus Streicher, the German Consul General in the Kurdistan Region, underlined that “Daesh (ISIS) is still a threat to international peace and security; continued collective efforts are still required to counter and eradicate its cells.”
“We are therefore proud that German troops take part in the Operation Inherent Resolve and in the NATO Training Mission,” Streicher added.

"RV UPDATE" BY BRUCE, 20 OCT
Bruce
Currency Sellers have been advised they were no longer able to sell currencies after 11:59 pm Fri. night 20 Oct. Central Daylight time.
Once the Currency Sellers stopped being able to sell, Tier4b (us, the Internet Group) would go. The optimal time we could be notified was Sat. morning 21 Oct.
What we got in report today was all the rates are extremely good. And we know that the dinar came back up on the Forex yesterday and came back up on the streets for trading on forex and on the bank screen today. The rates are very good.
...our hope is that we get notified - we set our appointments - and at least start Thursday.
That's what I'm hoping that we'll see if that's what manifests... you know guys, we've been awfully close before, or at least we thought it was that case. And now we're at that same point of could it happen? ...So we hope that this is it...
Echoes of Conflict: The Human and Geopolitical Cost of the Israel-Hamas Crisis, 20 oct
Echoes of Conflict: The Human and Geopolitical Cost of the Israel-Hamas Crisis, 20 oct
From Hula, a southern Lebanese border village, to Gaza City, the conflict between Israel and its adversaries has intensified. The reverberations of an Israeli artillery attack in Hula, which injured a teenage girl, can be felt across the region, as tensions and violence escalate.
The Human Face of Conflict
Behind the headlines, the human cost of the conflict is heart-wrenching. Among the victims is Sameh Murad, a Gaza-based freelance photographer, who lost his wife, Dina Taher, in an Israeli airstrike. Dina, fleeing the escalating violence in Gaza City with their two young daughters, was caught in the crossfire. The pain etched on Sameh’s face as he recounts the day he lost the love of his life, mirrors the agony of thousands, torn apart by the relentless conflict.
A Battle of Narratives
As the conflict rages, so too does a battle of narratives. The explosion at the Al Ahli hospital in Gaza City is a case in point. Palestinian officials attribute the blast, which they claim killed hundreds, to Israeli military action. Conversely, U.S. and Israeli officials point to a misfired rocket by the Palestinian Islamic Jihad militant group as the culprit. The truth, like the hospital, lies in ruins.
The Regional Chessboard
The Israel-Hamas conflict extends beyond their borders, forming part of a larger regional dynamic involving Iran. Tehran supports Hamas and other militant factions through its “axis of resistance,” an alliance that spans Lebanon, Iraq, Syria, and beyond. The escalating conflict serves Iran’s strategic interests, allowing it to sow chaos in adversary territories while maintaining plausible deniability.
Long-term Implications
The long-term implications of the conflict are formidable. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warns of a protracted engagement, underscoring the need for sustained international support. Meanwhile, U.S. President Joe Biden has pledged assistance for Israel, even as he calls for restraint.
BRUCE'S INTEL HIGHLIGHTS ( ENGLISH & SPANISH), 20 OCT
BRUCE 10/19/23
ONLY INTELLIGENCE
WHERE ARE WE NOW
Intel from yesterday before tonight's call and it's very good - this is what was great - those who have been at this for a while remember that once the currency sellers stop selling, then it's our turn. So what I believe is that we have three confirmations from three sellers that they can no longer sell the top three or four that we have and they have been told that they will no longer be able to sell them after 11:59 p.m. m. tomorrow night central time. It's one minute to midnight and then all sales will close and that's very important to us.
And tie that in with an RC that says the optimal time would be early Saturday morning. And the other piece of brief information tonight and there is a major CC between the leaders of the Treasury and Wells Fargo of every RC in the US and HSBC around the world, and we know several of them and that between 1 and 3 p.m. m. morning and one thing
Do you want to discuss if RC is willing to come and staff RC on Sunday? I think the answer is yes, if the answer is yes, and that will be conveyed to those who are leading this call and we hope that we will receive our notifications on Saturday morning and schedule an appointment and get started on Saturday afternoon or evening, but If Sunday is not an option, then we would receive the notifications on Monday and from Monday onwards, but since the RC staff wants this as much as we do, I think they will work on Sunday for the next 12 days. So it may come down to that question and a few other things too: things are trading higher with the currencies, the dinar and the dong, and the Zim is trading above face value and it's good to see that these things happen.
I think that's the biggest reveal, now we've been close before, and I'm telling you exactly what I'm getting and if it's True and it holds up and we know you want this done before the end of the month. And we also know that the Brunson case, we heard about it a while ago and it's coming out a week before the end of the month, so we're waiting for that; what we see in Congress is not what is actually happening so let that go and there are things about USDC tokens, that is DS and it is not real; don't buy it and if you have backed assets and the new USN from the exchange and we don't need any token or anything else, we have the real one and we will have the QSF account and the quantum card that can be linked to three other banks;
Bruce is starting with Wells to see what they are like. There is also a lot of cleanup 1 – 13 - a lot of arrests that are escalating and I don't want to get into the details of that - and these things need to happen and they are part of the reason we are waiting. and this clearing seems to be as if it is already ready to launch, so all the currency sellers on Ebay etc. have been given exactly that amount of time to stop selling; no more sales and that is great news for us.
And that's really all I wanted to say tonight and it depends on this video call tomorrow for all the important players. I think we're in a great place to start this party and I think this will come to fruition and now we'll move on. Bruce now thanks the entire team: Sue, Bob, GCK, Pastor Scott, Jeannie, Larry and all those faithful listeners around the world. And of course, without a doubt, Bruce will pray tonight for the call.
This really sounds like great information for us, and I just ask that we pray and continue to pray like we never have before: We need this and the whole world needs this NOW.
If we all ask our Father and Heaven, I feel in my heart that this time our prayer WILL BE HEARD.
I love you ALL, gem.
