U.S. Embassy in Iraq Under Significant Attack: Implications and Challenges, 10 DEC

 U.S. Embassy in Iraq Under Significant Attack: Implications and Challenges

The U.S. Embassy in Baghdad was recently besieged by a significant attack that included mortar fire, drone strikes, and multiple rocket assaults. This substantial assault came from Kataib Sayyid al-Shuhada, a commanding force in Iraq, who has openly promised more attacks on U.S. interests within the country. The U.S. has subsequently called on the Iraqi Security Forces to investigate this attack and apprehend those responsible.

Increasing Attacks on U.S. and Coalition Forces

Since October 17, U.S. and coalition forces in Iraq and Syria have faced a staggering total of 82 attacks. The recent attacks included multiple rocket strikes on the Al-Asad Airbase in Iraq and Mission Support Site Euphrates in Syria, as well as a drone attack on Al-Asad.

A separate rocket attack on the vast U.S. Embassy in Baghdad resulted in minor damage but thankfully, no casualties. Further attacks were launched on al-Asad air base in western Iraq and three troop locations in Syria, again with no reported casualties. Following these assaults, Washington has urged Iraqi security forces to investigate these incidents thoroughly, apprehend those responsible, and ensure they face justice.

The Challenge for Iraqi Prime Minister

These attacks present a significant challenge for Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani, who has committed to safeguarding foreign missions. His focus is on boosting the economy and attracting foreign investment, a goal that these continued attacks may jeopardize.

Continued Threats Against U.S. Forces

The U.S. embassy in Baghdad has been targeted with rockets for the second time within a year. Although the damage was minimal and there were no injuries, the Ain al-Asad air base, a hosting site for U.S. and other international forces, was also a target. Despite the projectiles not landing within the base, the threat is clear and present. A dozen attacks against U.S. forces in Iraq and Syria have been claimed by a group of Iran-aligned Shi’ite Muslim militias operating under the banner of the Islamic Resistance in Iraq.

"RV UPDATE" BY KAPERONI, 10 DEC

   A very important statement was made back in 2020 by the prime minister's economic advisor Mohamed Salah who used to be Deputy Governor of the CBI under Shabibi. He stated that Iraq's entire wealth including all minerals in the ground amounts to only $16 trillion dollars. Knowing that information one can then determine that there is no way a significant RV could ever occur with over 90 trillion dinar in circulation.  It doesn't make sense...

 They...have to have the dinar stabilized within the country and within the 2% rule mandated by the IMF in order to then accept IMF article VIII and begin to float the dinar which would raise its value based on supply and demand.  All of these processes and or steps required time.

Global Political and Economic Landscape: A Roundup of Recent Developments, 10 DEC

 Global Political and Economic Landscape: A Roundup of Recent Developments

As the world turns, political and economic landscapes continue to evolve, resulting in a series of significant international events and developments. From the Middle East’s escalating tensions to Europe’s technology regulation debates, each event carries a ripple effect on the global stage. Amidst these developments, world leaders manoeuvre their political chess pieces, all while the world watches.

Hostage Rescue Attempt and Political Maneuvers in Middle East

In the heart of the Middle East, a failed hostage rescue operation in Gaza has led to injuries to two Israeli soldiers. Concurrently, the Biden Administration has set a year-end deadline for Israel to conclude unspecified actions. Such developments occur as the U.S. vetoed a UN Security Council resolution for a cease-fire in Gaza. The region’s volatility has been further amplified with militias affiliated with Iran attacking U.S. military bases in Syria and Iraq. In response, Israel has launched strikes in Syria, and there have been reports of clashes involving Israeli soldiers and civilians against Palestinians near Hebron.

Technological Regulation and Political Trials in Europe

The European Union has reached a provisional agreement on rules to govern artificial intelligence, marking a significant shift in the regulation of technology. Meanwhile, in France, a court has decided to put Marine Le Pen, a prominent presidential candidate for the 2027 election, on trial. This incident suggests an emerging pattern of legal challenges against political figures.

Political Developments in the U.S. and Russia

Over in the U.S., recent polls reveal that Donald Trump is leading Joe Biden in the 2024 Presidential Race, stirring the political pot further. Across the Atlantic, President Vladimir Putin of Russia has announced his intention to seek re-election, a move that is likely to have a significant impact on global politics.

Economic and Sports News: Uranium, Interest Rates, and Golf

On the economic front, the U.S. has tripled its uranium purchases from Russia, a move reflecting the changing dynamics of global trade. Meanwhile, the Reserve Bank of India holds its key lending rate steady, and the U.S. unemployment rate stands at 3.7 percent for the last month. In the sports world, top golfer Jon Rahm has made the surprising move of leaving the PGA Tour for a deal with LIV Golf.

Investments, TV License Fees, and Security Concerns

Rounding off the global news reel, Chinese investments in Vietnam are on the rise, signifying shifts in global investment trends. In the UK, the television license fee, which funds the BBC, is set to increase by 6.6 percent. Lastly, the White House National Security spokesman emphasized the expectation of a full investigation by India into a plot, a move that displays the intricacies of diplomatic relations despite India being a strategic partner to the U.S.

"RV UPDATE" BY MNT GOAT, 9 DEC

 Article Quote:   “Encouraging and dealing with the local currency under the current economic conditions in the country is an important issue, especially with the government’s tendency to “strengthen” the Iraqi dinar against other hard currencies, especially the dollar, as well as seeking to present it first in order to be a “issue of a homeland” in a real way." 

 They are telling us once again they must complete the currency reform first as in integral part of rebuilding...the economy and the country...Their goal is to have the dinar come out higher than the dollar. This is not a fairy tale or rumor. This is FACT...

    I truly can hardly believe all the good news coming from Iraq. Maybe it’s not the RV, as of yet, but I can assure you it is coming and there is no stopping it. It is like a loaded freight train coming fast down the tracks...

This gets more and more exciting with each call to Iraq [with CBI contact]. So, we know from past conversations that Iraq wants and needs to continue the process of the financial reform plan, of which the currency reform is a part of and a VERY high priority.
