ASSOCIATED PRESS”: WASHINGTON SENT MESSAGES TO AL-SUDANI STATING THAT ITS PATIENCE IS RUNNING OUT!
The Associated Press revealed The American newspaper said that the attacks on American bases by the factions are forcing the Baghdad government to strike a balance that becomes more difficult day after day, while it indicated that Washington sent messages to the Sudanese government stating that its patience is beginning to run out.
The agency says in a report translated by Al-Sumaria News, “Dozens of attacks on American military installations by factions in Iraq during the past two months, with the intensification of the war between Israel and Hamas, forced Baghdad to take a balanced measure that has become more difficult day after day,” noting that “The missile attack on the US Embassy in Baghdad on Friday marked a further escalation as Iraqi officials seek to contain the fallout from the latest war in the Middle East.”
She adds, “Iran has great influence in…Iraq“, pointing out that “there are about 2,000 American soldiers in Iraq under agreement with Baghdad, mainly to counter the terrorist organization of ISIS”.
She continues, “Baghdad it also relies heavily on waivers Washington From sanctions to purchase electricity from Iran, and since the 2003 US invasion, reserves have been put in place Iraq of foreign currencies at the US Federal Reserve, giving Americans significant control over supplies Iraq of dollars”.
The agency explains in its report, “Sudani’s ancestors also had to walk a delicate line between Tehran and Washington but the war between Israel and Hamas has greatly increased the risks.”
Since the outbreak of war on October 7, a group of Iraqi militants called the “Islamic Resistance in Iraq” Responsible for at least 92 attacks on US bases in Iraq and Syria. They say their attacks are in response to support Washington to Israel and its military presence in Iraq and Syria, according to the agency.
The agency reveals that “Washington she sent messages saying that her patience was running out.”
After the attack on the embassy, the Pentagon said that Defense Minister Lloyd Austin he made it clear to Al-Sudani that attacks against American forces must stop.”
The US Secretary of State said Anthony Blinken For the Sudanese Washington It expects Iraqi officials to take further measures to prevent such attacks, and believes they have the ability to do so, a US official told the agency.
An Iraqi official said that the CIA Director William Burns During his recent visit to the region, Al-Sudani warned of “serious consequences.” If he doesn’t move Iraq to stop attacks.
In a call with the Iraqi Prime Minister earlier this month, Blinken said that the Americans would take matters into their own hands, arguing that Baghdad did not do enough to pursue the perpetrators, according to two Iraqi officials who spoke on condition of anonymity to the agency.
In early November, Blinken met with Al-Sudani in Baghdad one day before the Iraqi Prime Minister’s visit to Tehran. Al-Sudani had obtained a specific promise from the armed factions not to launch any attacks during Blinken’s visit, according to an Iraqi official. After the visit, Al-Sudani carried a message from Blinken to Iran to rein in the factions, according to the agency.
I asked [my CBI contact] what the next targeted steps were and I was told that the committee does not even know and were told just to standby and the CBI is going to try to “push” to continue as they are ready for the next step in the process. I was told the IMF is negotiating the new peg for the dinar but to remember it impacts all countries in this new peg not just Iraq. I was told this is close to being completed and should be done this week ending. This lines us up for next week to begin the currency sway [swap ?] out, but they told me it is delayed until further notice.
So, at least we now have a timeline when they did plan it and still could do it based on what happens with the US bombing issue. My contact did reiterate that the process now is irreversible and must go forward. The US had already given assurances they would not back out if the CBI moved ahead. So all I can say is let’s sit tight and watch what does happen in the coming week.
...just recently Iraq now began broadcasting news in-country to the citizens that the dinar is an “issue of a homeland” in a real way...a patriotic video...is telling the people that the dinar is valuable and will revitalize the nation...It DOES NOT say the dinar is going to be stronger than the dollar, but it does tell the citizens they should be very proud of their national currency and that it is very valuable. Valuable at 1/6 of a penny? ...something BIG is about to happen with the dinar...
Starting today…a third of Iraq’s imports will be freed from the control of the dollar
2023-12-13 | 03:01
Starting today...a third of Iraqs imports will be freed from the control of the dollarThe Central Bank of Iraq announced today, Wednesday, the launch of the process of financing Iraqi imports from the Emirates with the Emirati dirham.
The Central Bank of Iraq stated in a statement received by “Al-Sumaria News”, “The Governor of the Central Bank of Iraq, Ali Mohsen Al-Alaq, met in Dubai with the Chairman of the First Abu Dhabi Bank Group, Hana Al-Rustamani, and during the meeting it was agreed to launch financial transfer operations between the two countries and finance trade and imports between Iraq.” And the United Arab Emirates in the UAE dirham currency through the First Abu Dhabi Bank.
The bank indicated that transfer operations in the UAE dirham will begin today, Wednesday, December 13, and the first phase of this agreement will be with five Iraqi banks, which will be gradually increased. He stated
that “this step comes within the framework of enabling Iraqi banks to establish relationships with reputable international banks, and it serves… “Towards reducing dependence on the electronic platform for financial transfers and working in accordance with the normal international practices adopted in strengthening Iraqi bank balances for the purposes of financing trade.”
Iraq’s imports from the UAE annually amount to more than 20 billion dollars, most of which are considered re-exports of goods from other countries, out of total imports to Iraq. It amounts to 60 billion dollars annually.
Accordingly, this means that approximately 35% of Iraq’s annual imports will not be made through the dollar in the future.
I have to tell you I am disappointed at what I am hearing from Iraq. But there is some good news too and the bad news could change suddenly, as I am told.
No, the RV has not yet happened. I will address my conversation with my CBI contact from yesterday also later on in this section. First I want to address some more weird news that I feel is not giving the entire picture of what is going on in Iraq with the financial reform process. These articles can be deceptive if you didn’t already know better and read articles from the past that contradict them.
Today, Thursday (December 14, 2023), the Central Bank of Iraq announced the end of its meetings with the delegation of the Federal Reserve and the US Department of the Treasury in Dubai. The meetings resulted in a number of agreements related to supporting the policies of the Central Bank of Iraq in its orientation to support Iraqi banks in establishing relationships with correspondent banks and the gradual transition of operations to enhance the advance balance of the accounts of these banks, and this is consistent with what the Central Bank of Iraq previously announced in its plan to gradually reduce from relying on the electronic platform to ending its work within the next year2024 and limiting it to recording financial transfers for the purposes of control, auditing and analysis.”
According to the statement, the Governor of the Central Bank of Iraq, Ali Al-Alaq, confirmed that “the Central Bank is determined to support Iraqi banks, enhance their capabilities and prepare them to work in accordance with international practices,” while the statement explained that “it was agreed and approved by the above authorities to meet the requests of the Central Bank of Iraq for cash shipments for the year 2024″.
Meanwhile Iraqi Banking expert, Mahmoud Dagher, on Wednesday said it was impossible for the Central Bank of Iraq to prevent dealing in dollars in the country. He said and I quote from the article – “The Central Bank cannot prevent dealing in the dollar. There is nothing in the banking law or in the instructions of the Central Bank that supports this approach” He claimed they have no right, and dealing in the dollar will continue as dealing with the dinar. But what does this last statement really mean. Does it mean dealing in dollars in the hands of the citizen or the banks?
I want add that as investors we read the CBI policy that will begin Jan 1st 2024 and it did not say that there would be no dollars used in Iraq. What Ali al-Alaq did say as a new policy, is that the banks will still maintain accounts for depositors in dollars. However, within the country of Iraq, if these dollars are withdrawn from the banks they will be converted to dinar. This is the end result of the de-dollarization process of 2023.
So, in part Banking expert, Mahmoud Dagher is correct but in part is seems he is barking up the wrong tree in emphasizing to correct something that does not need correction. The CBI policy was stated very clearly and he should go read it first before publishing such statements. Such statements only add to the confusion in people’s minds. We have to be careful in the translation from Arabic to English as meanings are also lost.
Then there is Economist Ziyad Al-Hashemi who said on Wednesday that the financing process for the Development Road Project has reached a dead end, after Iraqi efforts to obtain the investment financing necessary to launch this project faltered. He added, the latest is the Turkish President’s efforts to persuade Qatar and the Emirates to invest in this project, which seems to have not led to a satisfactory result. Oh boy nothing but bad news today….But we know that China has already invested billions into the “Silk Road” project, as we read these articles too in the recent past. So, we must consider why Turkish, Qatar and Emirates investors do not, as this time, want to invest in this project. It is not that the project “faltered” but rather they do not wish to compete with China.
So today another one bites the dust! Last week we read about the Central Bank of Iraq began covering retailers’ imports from Turkey with tens of millions of euros as an initial payment, in implementation of the banking arrangements agreement concluded with Turkey last week. This period of news we read news about another country with international payment arrangements made outside of using the US dollar. So recently the Governor of the Central Bank of Iraq, Ali Al-Alaq, met in Dubai with the Chairman of the First Abu Dhabi Bank Group, Hanaa Al-Rustamani. During the meeting, according to a statement by the Central Bank, a copy of which {Al-Furat News} received, “it was agreed to launch financial transfer operations between the two countries and to finance trade and imports between Iraq and the United Arab Emirates in the UAE dirhamcurrency(not the dollar) through the First Abu Dhabi Bank, as transfer operations in the UAE dirham began this day, Wednesday.” December 13.” WOW, WOW, WOW. This is all good news for our investment.
However, I also want to caution you as citizens of the U.S. Yes, this may be good for our reinstatement of the dinar process but there are ramificatios too. This de-dollarization can be very bad for the value of the dollar throughout the world. Remember the dollar is the standard of median of exchange throughout the world. It has helped stabilize the values of other currencies as it was the standard to which all other currencies gauged. But with the massive debt caused by careless spending, especially during the Biden administration, the dollar is actually worthless with over 35 trillion of national debt. It is only through the speculation and the petro-backing of the dollar called petro-dollars (selling oil in US dollars) that has kept the dollar a float though its high demand. But this too the Biden administration seeks to kill, talking now in the latest Summit on so-called climate change, to get off oil as a standard energy supply just decades away.
What does this all mean for Iraq?
Well…we already read multiple articles from Iraq pushing the U.S. to release their oil revenue funds from the US banks. Next will come selling oil outside of the petro-dollar. Trust me on this one it is coming. I know there are some intel gurus out there telling the dollar is “king” and will never fail. But at the same time they are ignorant people and do not keep abreast of just what is happening right in front of their noses.
If this fails then what? We are literally witnessing it fail right in front of our eyes. What will happen next?
There are many of these idiots selling you this concept of NESARA/GESARA which is of course all foolishness and I explained many times why this is so. However, one thing they do keep talking about if the reenacting of the Gold standard provisions for currencies. Folks, we can already see the seeds being planted right front of our noses. In fact, not only planted but already the new sprouts are arising out of the ground… So, what will the dollar be worth when we finally get to exchange? I fully believe we are going to see a crash with the turning into 2024. I am not a financial analyst and I surely am not qualified to give financial advise, but I too can see the crash coming. It is now just a matter of how severe will it be?
This crash is also confirmed by the modern day prophets as tell us do not FEAR. God is telling us it will be short-lived. PANIC and FEAR will only make it worst.
Back to the dinar revaluation…
Is this why the sudden de-dollarization we are witnessing taking place not just in Iraq, but in Iraq is this why they had to get off the sole de facto peg to the US dollar with the dinar? Do they want the dinar to crash?
So, there are multiple reasons why, what is happening in Iraq is happening. It is just not all about the revaluation. If it was then where is the currency swap out? It is mid-December already. Where are all the articles we were promised would happen with the re-education process to identify the newer lower denominations and explain to the citizens just how the swap out will work? Then today out pops an article telling us the currency auctions will not end in early 2024.

Member: Frank26 said Iraq last changed their rate on 12/20/22. Seems they like that date.
Member: And Iraq will spend the other 80% of their budget right after that…wihin 5 days. Between the 20th and 25th…..
Member: It seems 2 me, IRAQ set the 20th 4 the flip. if they R going to spend the 80% at that time, retroactive to 1-1-23, wouldn't they want that CURRENCY VALUE 2 B much HIGHER?
Member: Frank26 said that they are making the 80% retro active back to Jan 1 and this would spend it all
MZ: In Iraq: “Central Bank achieves a new step in the right direction to regulate foreign trade.”
MZ: Also the CBI just wrapped up meetings with the US Treasury and the Federal Reserve about “ Becoming International” and they are content with the changes they have made for Iraq to be fully recognized internationally.
Member: I heard a rumor that the IMF has approved everything……and is done
Member: I heard the dong will come out at .47…Seems a bit odd as I thought it would come out closer to the dinar since they own so much of each others currency?
MZ: When we first got into this and looked at the Vietnamese dong we were hopeful it would come out around.30 to .36 cents. Which is still amazing. But I have not heard it was going to be that low. I am still hearing it will be between $2 and $3.
