MZ: I think we are hearing many rumors because things are in process. 

MZ: I am getting more confirmations from bond folks with final contracts and meetings happening all throughout the day today. I am very hopeful we are about to have some exceptionally clear indicators from this.

MZ: Almost all my historic bonds contacts are expecting conference calls with updates today on their status. I have never seen this much activity. At least not in a very long time. 

MZ: Instructions, updates, meetings and conference calls are ripping through and preparing the historic bond markets….They appear to be on the precipice of completion.  

Member: with all this bond news- is February still possible?

MZ: It’s still possible, but we are at the end of it so things may bleed into March. To me things have already started according to things I am hearing. 

​​Member: Frank26 said diner on CBI website was $3.22 for about 5 minutes

Member: Great interview with Dr. Judy Shelton on gold backed money from Liberty and Finance last night 

MZ: Yes Dr. Shelton is openly talking about the coming reset, sound money, gold backed currency and gold backed bonds. 

MZ: “Iraq reiterates Opec pledge ahead of restart of Kurdistan oil exports”  400,000 barrels a day are headed back into the market soon . they are inspecting and taking the pipeline out of mothballs as we speak. 

MZ: “MP reveals the date of the resumption of oil exports from the Kurdistan region” they are shooting for very early in March. But if repairs on the pipeline are required…it may not be until mid March. 

MZ: “ The return of exports and the absence of revenues-The oil file with Kurdistan opens a new page”  All of this is happening right now and is part of the HCL.

MZ: “Iraq announces new security agreement to Trump administration” Iraq is proposing a security agreement with the US. Working together as partners for security throughout the middle east….this is big. Its exciting to see Iraq become a sovereign independent country. It now needs a new rate. 

Member: (From Dinar Guru)  Mnt Goat   Article:  "EXCLUSIVE: FIVE IRAQI BANKS TO BE BANNED FROM US DOLLAR TRANSACTIONS"  so it’s not 15 banks, only 5 from engaging in US dollars. These are the CBI restrictions and NOT US sanctions imposed on the banks in Iraq.  I repeat NOT US sanctions! Many of these Iraqi news media outlets luv to exaggerate and tell you these are US sanctions. This is called FAKE news. Yes, even in Iraq.

MZ: This is spot on. They love to exaggerate. Every nation deals with fake news about politics. 

Member: March 4, which used to be inauguration day, is the state of the Union. Wouldnt that be the perfect moment to announce NESARA?

TIDBIT FROM FRANK26, 26 FEB

 Question:  "How can they put bonds into circulation without a rate?"  [Reference Guru Frank26 Firefly 2-23-2025 post ] 

 They're not in circulation.  If someone told you they are, get away from them.  They've told the citizens they can buy them but they're not in circulation right now.  Why?  Would you buy them at 1310?  No.  Because there is no exchange rate for it yet.

Outside The Debt Circuit, 26 FEB

 Outside The Debt Circuit

 
Economic 2025/02/24  Bashir Khazal  For many years, external debt formed a great burden on the treasury of the Iraqi state, to pay the debts of countries, banks and global organizations, due to the absurd wars that have rolled over the country since the eighties The state's revenues are mortgaged in a large part to pay that debt.
 
However, the rotation towards an effective and successful economic policy in the recent period led to the enforcement of Iraq from the largest part of it, and it has become out of the danger of banks and creditors abroad.

A step in the right direction is calculated for the current government in its program for developing the Iraqi economy.
 
For the first time, the Iraqi state gets rid of the burden of external debt that it has set economically after the war from the year 1980 to the present time.
 
Currently, the remainder of debts to international parties constitute only less than 9 billion A dollar is from now to the year 2028, and
 
the ratio of this debt compared to GDP does not constitute a burden on the state,
 
It constitutes what is 5 percent of GDP, and the
 
global standard allows 60 percent of GDP to be external debts.
 
At this stage, Iraq has become a well-fortified country in the place of external debt.
 
More precisely that it has become outside the dangers of external debt, which gives the country high credit in the field of global credit rating,
 
with an integrated coordination between the Central Bank of Iraq and the Ministry of Finance in paying debt dues, whether debt services are "benefits and installments" or pay the debts once",
 
It is also calculated to perform these economic institutions that were able to take good steps despite the presence of corruption cases from here and there, the
 
government  is still working to fight it. By all means, exercising successful policies by public finances in the subject of debt, through the
 
     financial strengthening of external debt extinguishing, and
     borrowing in a lower rate,
 
which led to positive results that reflected its reality on the entire Iraqi economy, and by 2028 the external debts will remain due.  

Steps in the right direction in the government's economic policy that supports its foreign policy, and
 
Iraq has the opportunity to turn into the most important global economic country,
especially since foreign investments put its eye that Iraq is a country of diverse resources and raw materials necessary for a large strategic industries that enter a large part of it in the field of energy production.
 
Despite the difficult crisis and conditions that the region and the regional environment in particular, we see that
 
Iraq also succeeded to distance itself as a country away from the conflicts and wars that can deplete its wealth, capabilities and human and natural resources, as
 
the successful policy is that the decision is correct and effective in crises and returns to it. Multiple-sided benefits in the present and future.    https://alsabaah.iq/110621-.html   

SANDY INGRAM CC HIGHLIGHTS NOTES , 26 feb

 SANDY INGRAM CC HIGHLIGHTS NOTES

Highlights

Summary

In this video, Sandy discusses the complex and tense relationship between Iraq and the United States, particularly under the influence of former Iraqi Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kadhimi and the current political landscape. Sandy describes Al-Kadhimi as a figure who was likely supported by the U.S. due to his background as Iraq’s top spy.

 Despite initial hopes for his leadership, Al-Kadhimi was quietly removed from power, leading to a prolonged period without a prime minister. Eventually, Mohammed Shia’ Al-Sudani was installed, but his leadership has faced significant challenges, including protests over economic issues and the infiltration of Iranian influence in Iraq’s banking and oil sectors. 

The U.S. has attempted to limit Iran’s access to U.S. dollars, which has added to the economic strain in Iraq. The situation has been further complicated by Iranian-backed militias in Iraq launching attacks on Israel, prompting U.S. intervention to prevent escalation. Overall, the video highlights the precarious balance of power and influence in Iraq, the repercussions of U.S. foreign policy, and the potential for future conflict.

• 🌍 Background on Leadership: Mustafa Al-Kadhimi was once seen as a U.S.-backed leader in Iraq, but his removal marked a significant shift in Iraqi politics.
• 💰 Economic Turmoil: Al-Sudani’s rise to power coincided with widespread protests driven by economic discontent, particularly concerning currency valuations.
• 🇮🇷 Iran’s Infiltration: Iran has made significant inroads into Iraq’s financial and oil sectors, raising concerns about U.S. influence in the region.
• 💵 U.S. Dollar Policy: The U.S. Treasury’s actions to limit Iran’s access to U.S. dollars have led to economic instability in Iraq.
• ⚔️ Militia Attacks on Israel: Iranian-backed militias in Iraq have posed a security threat, necessitating U.S. intervention to prevent conflict.
• 🕊️ U.S.-Israel Relations: The U.S. has played a crucial role in maintaining stability between Israel and Iraq amid rising tensions.
• ⏳ Future Implications: The evolving political landscape in Iraq raises questions about the future of U.S.-Iraq relations and regional stability.

Key Insights

• 📉 Leadership Instability: The removal of Al-Kadhimi and the prolonged search for a suitable prime minister reflects the deep-rooted instability within Iraq’s political structure. This instability undermines effective governance and complicates U.S. diplomatic relations. The video suggests that U.S. support for leaders like Al-Kadhimi can lead to backlash from the local populace who may view such support as foreign meddling.

• 🔍 Protests as a Reflection of Discontent: The protests that erupted under Al-Sudani’s leadership highlight the growing public frustration with economic conditions, particularly currency fluctuations. These movements signify a populace that is increasingly aware of and responsive to their economic grievances, which could lead to further volatility if not addressed properly.

• 🏦 Economic Control vs. Sovereignty: The U.S. attempts to restrict Iran’s access to U.S. dollars illustrate a broader tension between economic control and national sovereignty. Iraq finds itself caught in a geopolitical tug-of-war, with the U.S. seeking to curb Iranian influence while also protecting Iraq’s economic stability. This duality generates a precarious environment where the Iraqi government must navigate complex international pressures.

• 🔥 Militias and Regional Security: The presence of Iranian-backed militias in Iraq poses a significant threat not only to Iraqi stability but also to regional security. The video indicates that these groups have the capacity to instigate conflict, particularly with Israel, which could provoke a military response from either Israel or the U.S., further complicating the region’s geopolitical landscape.

• ✊ U.S. Role as a Stabilizer: Sandy emphasizes the role of the U.S. as a stabilizing force, especially concerning Israel’s security. The U.S. intervention to prevent Israeli retaliation against Iraq underscores its strategic interests and the delicate balance it must maintain to avoid larger conflicts in the region.

• 📊 Backdoor Politics: The discussion of “backdoor news” versus mainstream reporting highlights the often opaque nature of political maneuvers in Iraq. This suggests that public narratives may not always reflect the underlying realities, making it essential for observers to seek out diverse sources of information to gain a comprehensive understanding of the situation.

• 🔄 Future Challenges: The evolving dynamics in Iraq, especially with the potential resurgence of U.S. leadership under President Trump, may lead to significant shifts in policy. The video implies that as tensions rise, the U.S. will need to recalibrate its approach to Iraq to maintain its influence while fostering stability in a region fraught with turmoil.

In summary, the video provides a layered examination of the intricate and often volatile relationship between Iraq and the United States, focusing on leadership changes, economic challenges, and the broader implications of regional politics. Sandy’s insights into these dynamics draw attention to the precarious balance of power in Iraq and the ongoing influence of external forces.
