Some highlights by PDK-Not verbatim

MarkZ Disclaimer: Please consider everything on this call as my opinion. People who take notes do not catch everything and its best to watch the video so that you get everything in context.  Be sure to consult a professional for any financial decisions

Member: Good evening all…..I am still praying this will this be our week!!!

Member: Remember the twilight zone? We have been living in it for years

Member:  we need some good news MarkZ!

MZ: While digging for news on timing ….all I am getting is circle-tel. Some of my better sources keep telling me “soon” ..not yet, but extremely soon. 

MZ: But the circle-tel boards are all saying “this is it” …trigger has been pulled and we are all getting paid right now. 

MZ: So I reach out to those that have bonds…some are flippers.….and they have not started the process yet. There is so much disinformation right now to keep the timing clouded. 

Member: That’s why we call things “rumors” and not facts. 

MZ: So I want to caution you all when you read the boards…stay calm…….Yes sources say its soon….far closer than we think. When they tell me that I believe this war was not the diversion that many think it is.   I sure hope not. But I am hearing this from my best contacts in the government and in Iraq. ….and from the bond side in Europe. 

MZ: the bond side here in the states have gone really quiet. Maybe the people over here are better at keeping people quiet?  

Member: What’s a flipper?

MZ: A flipper is someone who is buying currency and bonds at a lower price ….They will pay you a rate that is more then you paid…and turn around and sell it at a higher rate to someone else just before this goes. They flip it like someone who buys houses….and flips them…There are a lot of flippers in this game.

Member: Hoping we at least get 1 to 1 when this finally goes….hopefully $3+

Member: Bo Polny says big dates on the 24th and 25th…..whales today and maybe tier 4b on Thursday?

MZ: Possibly…there is a lot of chatter out there but, I’m just not seeing anyone with money yet. This doesn’t mean they are not positioned. 

MZ: I told you recently that CMKX continues to update their fines and penalties every other week…and I am told that the groups have finished their logistics….everything done and ready….It does sound like we are right on top of this. 

Member: Interesting this afternoon Minnesota… all of Minnesota lost their Internet for two hours

Member:  I called my bank (Chase) I asked them about Yellow Dragon Bonds they said they had no idea what they were

Member:  China just made first international oil deal in Digital Yuan. The de-dollarization is full on for BRICS. Getting wild!!

Member: Lots of craziness everywhere….who knew there were this many bad guys in the world… .

Member: Sure thought we would have seen cabal arrests start by now….

"IRAQ BOOTS ON THE GROUND REPORT" BY FIREFLY, (UPDATED), 24 OCT

  Frank26 

  [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] 

 FIREFLY:  The television is talking about the Iraqi Development Fund that is inside of the budget...They keep talking about the budget, what's in it and the development fund is what's key.   

FRANK: Profound...the Development Fund is what's going to fund the budget.  This development fund is the new exchange rate.   They're talking about it because they're talking about the exchange rate...What they're talking about is you have a new exchange rate that is coming for everything to work...

FIREFLY:  My bank guys says corruption is still the major holdup right now but even Sudani was on the news saying for parliament to stop calling out Alaq.  He's saying the parliament members are the problem...

When you ask when is it going to happen... ask how is the cleaning going.  How is the removal of Iran...eradicating the smuggling going.  That's what we want to know.  Nothing else. 

 Because once the atmosphere is suitable you're going to get what you want.  You're never going to get rid of the cockroaches but you can definitely control them. That's what's happening right now - corruption is being controlled, it's being cleaned up.

Major powerful countries are coming into Iraq.    It's going to effect their currency exchange rate.  More than anything else it will rocket their float and that when you have to be very astute.  Watch it...You've got to watch the rate in the float.  Know when to hold'm and know when to fold'm.  Know when to backoff. 

Echoes of Conflict: Rocket Attacks in Iraq and the Israeli-Palestinian Ripple Effect, 24 OCT

Echoes of Conflict: Rocket Attacks in Iraq and the Israeli-Palestinian Ripple Effect

In the rising chill of an October evening, two Grad missiles cut through the night sky of Iraq, hurtling towards their ominous destination – the Ayn al-Esad Air Base, a strategic outpost housing US troops. A familiar sequence of events unfolded: the deafening roar of the launch, the deadly arc of the missiles, and the anxious wait for impact. But this time, the story bears a twist. The missiles failed to claim any lives or damage, a rare stroke of luck in a region where such attacks have become chillingly routine.

The Echoes of A Distant Conflict

These attacks, far from random acts of violence, are grim echoes of a distant conflict. Following Israel’s attacks on the Gaza Strip, the Islamic resistance organization, an amalgam of Shiite armed groups, has claimed these attacks as a grim form of solidarity. The reverberations of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, thus, ripple outwards, shaking the uneasy peace of the Iraqi plains. Yet the connection to the Gaza conflict is far from straightforward, and as United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres points out, the blame does not rest solely on Hamas’s shoulders. The root of the matter, he emphasizes, lies in the long-standing occupation faced by the Palestinian people.

The Crosshairs of Tension

The recent spate of attacks leaves a question hanging heavily in the air – how safe are US troops in this tinderbox environment? With around 2,500 troops stationed in Iraq and a further 900 in neighboring Syria, the US finds itself walking a tightrope, balancing the need for regional stability against the safety of its personnel. The US military, in response, is tightening its protective measures, even contemplating the evacuation of military families if necessary. The message to Iran and its proxies is clear: any attack on US personnel will be met with swift and decisive action.

A Complex Web of Conflict

The rocket attacks have not only affected the US. They have also drawn the attention of other global players. French President Emmanuel Macron proposed broadening the international coalition fighting against the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria to include a new adversary – the Palestinian militant group, Hamas, in Gaza. Such a proposal, while showcasing France’s commitment to combating terrorism, raises complex questions about the role of international forces in conflicts beyond their immediate purview.

This tangled web of conflicts, stretching from the Gaza Strip to the plains of Iraq, serves as a stark reminder of the intricate dynamics of the Middle East. Long-standing grievances, power dynamics, and the involvement of various armed groups all contribute to a volatile cocktail of tensions. And as these recent attacks show, the repercussions of these interactions can be felt far beyond the immediate conflict zones.

Resolving these issues will not be easy. It will require a comprehensive and inclusive peace process, one that not only addresses immediate concerns but also the deep-seated issues fueling these conflicts. Only then can the region hope to break free from the cycle of violence that has held it hostage for so long.

Iraq’s Financial Revolution: A Journey Towards Digitalization and Growth, 24 OCT

 Iraq’s Financial Revolution: A Journey Towards Digitalization and Growth

In the heart of the Middle East, far removed from the clamor of the foreign media, a quiet revolution is stirring. Iraq, a nation often portrayed as a turbulent hotbed of conflict, is now spearheading a transformative shift in its financial sector, seeking to usher in an era of digitalization and economic growth. This narrative isn’t forged in the crucible of sensational headlines, but it’s a story worth telling, for it signifies Iraq’s relentless drive towards stability and prosperity.

Steering the Winds of Change

The Prime Minister of Iraq, Muhammad Shaaa Al-Sudani, recently led a crucial meeting focusing on the unified treasury account and the electronic payment system – two pillars that could potentially redefine the nation’s financial landscape. Al-Sudani emphasized the pressing need to activate the work and responsibilities of the Payments Council at the Central Bank. This is more than a bureaucratic directive; it’s an urgent call to modernize Iraq’s banking sector, a critical step towards a broader economic transformation.

The Prime Minister also insisted on receiving a final report on the progress made, reflecting a demand for accountability and transparency. His directive to all ministries to implement the fourth paragraph of the Cabinet Resolution (3581 of 2023), and to accelerate the formation of committees, underscores the urgency of the task at hand.

Al-Sudani’s call for an analysis of the non-moving bank accounts for each ministry within a month is a testament to the government’s resolve to tackle financial stagnation and inject momentum into the economy. It forms part of the larger effort to make the financial system more responsive and agile, aligning it with the changing dynamics of the global economic order.

Building a Digital Economy

At the first banking conference of the Central Bank of Iraq held in Erbil, the shift towards a digital economy was front and center. The conference, graced by the Prime Minister of the Kurdistan Regional Government, Masrour Barzani, the Second Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Shakhwan Abdullah, and various political, economic, and business figures, showcased Iraq’s commitment to banking sector growth and international collaboration.

The Governor of the Central Bank, Ali Al Alaq, highlighted the risks associated with a cash-based economy, such as financial crimes and illicit practices. He painted a vision of a digital economy, where technology serves as a catalyst for growth and transparency. Al Alaq emphasized the importance of maintaining the stability of the exchange rate and prioritizing the infrastructure of financial systems and business rules.

The Governor also underscored the importance of compliance with anti-money laundering and terrorism financing laws, demonstrating Iraq’s commitment to international norms and standards. These efforts aim to ensure the transparency and safety of financial operations and make Iraq a more attractive destination for international investments.

Moving Towards a Sustainable Future

The developments in Iraq’s banking sector are not isolated events but part of a larger narrative of progress and modernization. The country is taking significant strides towards building a stable, safe, and effective financial system, which is vital for attracting investment, promoting economic growth, and improving the overall quality of life for its citizens.

From the Prime Minister’s directives to the Central Bank’s initiatives, Iraq’s commitment to transforming its financial infrastructure is clear. Amid the challenges and complexities, the nation is charting a course towards a future defined not by conflict and crises, but by stability, growth, and digital empowerment. This is the untold story of Iraq – a story of resilience, ambition, and an unwavering resolve to secure a prosperous future for its people.
