* UN meeting will NOT focus on Iraq’s political crisis
July 28, 2010 Leave a Comment
Tuesday, July 27th 2010 5:54 PM
Baghdad, July 27 (AKnews) – The United Nations’ Security Council meeting next August will not be about the formation of the next Iraqi government, said a legal expert today, noting that the meeting is to discuss the achievements of the UN Assistance Mission in Iraq (UNAMI).
“The UN Security Council decided to discuss efforts to form Iraq’s next government, but the next meeting in August has nothing to do with the formation of the government, because the meeting will be held to extend the work of the UN Mission in Iraq,” said Tariq Harb, a leading Iraqi legal expert.
UNAMI was established in August 2003 by the Security Council to assist with Iraq’s political process. The group’s activities, however, were significantly curtailed after its headquarters were attacked by suicide car bombers six days after it was established.
The Security Council has renewed UNAMI’s mandate on a yearly basis ever since.
“The work of the UN Mission in Iraq is limited to offering opinions, advice, support, and help for the Iraqi government only,” Harb explained.
Some Iraqi politicians had warned that the UN might seek to intervene in the process of government formation in Iraq. More than four months after the parliamentary elections, Iraqi political forces have not yet agreed on the composition of the next government.

“IS to form cabinet when NC dismantled,” says Othman
27/07/2010
Baghdad (NINA) –MP Mahmoud Othman of the Kurdistani Alliance assured that “the Iraqiya Slate will be tasked with forming the next government in case the National Coalition, comprising the State of Law’s Coalition and the Iraqi national Alliance, was dismantled.”
In a statement to the National Iraqi News Agency, he said “The KA does not support any particular side and we do not know which part will form the government.”
“The INA has tendency towards allying with IS,” he added, noting that “The NC suffers from internal conflicts that might lead to dismantle it soon.”
“A new alliance might be formed by the INA, IS and the KA as well as other possibilities for forming other alliances,” according to Othman.
The NC suffers from conflicts over nominating the upcoming Premier, since the SLC adheres to nominating Nouri al-Maliki who is rejected by the INA.
Earlier, MP Hasan al-Shimmery pointed out that “The INA will go to parliament as INA rather than as part of the NC.” /End/

12:11 PM [sunshinelvr] we r not supposed to
12:11 PM [RicknSaudi] sunshinelvr WTF…”Deep finanacial crisis”….
12:11 PM [sunshinelvr] the general public was never to know about this whole thing let alone the currency speculation opportunity
12:12 PM [RicknSaudi] sunshinelvr
12:12 PM [sunshinelvr] what what
12:12 PM [RicknSaudi] sunshinelvr Please explain…
12:12 PM [Deneco] good afternoon all
12:12 PM [sunshinelvr] about which one?
12:12 PM [sunshinelvr]
12:12 PM [RicknSaudi] How could the public NOT know?
12:13 PM [sunshinelvr] well lok how many people saw what happened in Kuwait
12:13 PM [RicknSaudi] It’s the public that sent thier sons and daughters for crying out loud…
12:13 PM [sunshinelvr] it was NOT commomn knowledge
12:13 PM [RicknSaudi] sunshinelvr I’m missing somethin here
12:13 PM [sunshinelvr] im talking about the currency re alignment and the manuvering of political forces
12:14 PM [sunshinelvr] not the wars
12:14 PM [sunshinelvr] sorry
12:14 PM [bigrocks85] sunshinelvr yep agree
12:14 PM [sunshinelvr] i didn’t mean to interrupt
12:14 PM [RicknSaudi] sunshinelvr You’re on a roll. Please continue
12:14 PM [sunshinelvr] the Plan was created way long time ago
12:14 PM [bigrocks85] sunshinelvr hope we didnt get on the worng boat
12:14 PM [sunshinelvr]
12:15 PM [RicknSaudi] bigrocks85 or “wong” boat
12:15 PM [sunshinelvr] no this is a lifetime opportunity but the Rv is ONE aspect of this world wide manuvering
12:15 PM [sunshinelvr] it may not be the goi being the main hold up…..for instance
12:15 PM [sunshinelvr] it looks like to me its the main scapegoat
12:16 PM [nick s] so you think they are being told to put on this show for the world? to cover up some other issues
12:16 PM [sunshinelvr] this world wide currency re alighnment has everything to do with the worlds banks and if there are banks FAILING the security stress test that is one main reason the rv is stalled
12:17 PM [RicknSaudi] ineptidude, arrogance, and narcicism is what drive Iraqi politicians (sound familiar?)
12:17 PM [sunshinelvr] thats why that bank stress test was important last week
12:17 PM [Motorco] sunshinelvr totally agree! GOI has nothing to do with the RV…this is an IMF/UN world plan for iraq
12:17 PM [sunshinelvr] nick s YES
12:17 PM [sunshinelvr] Motorco correct
12:17 PM [sunshinelvr] this is all about the IMF world bank and un
12:17 PM [nick s] sunshinelvr I thought only a few banks failed and they were small banks
12:17 PM [bigrocks85] Motorco agree
12:17 PM [sunshinelvr] thats what they wanted you to think
12:18 PM [sunshinelvr] this is also about those bankrupt countries trying to get their foreign currency reserves up to the correct ratio before the “end of the banking reform” time table
12:18 PM [sunshinelvr] then end of this banking reform time table is Oct
12:19 PM [sunshinelvr] things have to be done BEFORE that
12:19 PM [nick s] sunshinelvr you are talking about the same tables that Scooter posted yesterday
12:19 PM [sunshinelvr] well He is very smart…and if you look at the big picture you can see the whole sotry better
12:19 PM [Motorco] Yep as scooter said, this will be a world wide economic explosion
12:20 PM [sunshinelvr] the big picture is VERY complicated
12:20 PM [nick s] sunshinelvr so you think that we will see these games played until Oct. or so when the reform is set to end
12:20 PM [sunshinelvr] I think we are in a window of opportunity and too many things are still unsettled
12:20 PM [Motorco] nick s I dont think they are games, just misdirection to get this all done before October
12:20 PM [sunshinelvr] but I hope we see it come together in aug/sept
12:21 PM [Motorco] sunshinelvr Me too!
12:21 PM [dinarrv9911] sunshinelvr Are you saying that the RV will happen in October, i.e. when the banking reform is finished?
12:21 PM [sunshinelvr] because there are som many things that we were told to look out for last year this timee that we are nOW seeing this year
12:21 PM [Motorco] dinarrv9911 the banking reform is the RV
12:22 PM [sunshinelvr] no….because the rv is one aspect and it needs to be done prior to oct
12:22 PM [sunshinelvr] because oct is when the isx is suposed to go intenational
12:22 PM [sunshinelvr] the rv needs to go first and then the stocks bonds and etc
12:23 PM [dinarrv9911] sunshinelvr So, RV has to happen first, before banking reform is finished?
12:23 PM [Deneco] sunshinelvr i’ve read that before isx can go international, the currency has to be tradeable and stable…meaning it would have to be on the market for a time before they could open the isx. agree?
12:23 PM [sunshinelvr] AND Oct is the begining of the fiscal year
12:23 PM [sunshinelvr] dinarrv9911 yes
12:23 PM [sunshinelvr] Deneco yes i beleive its a 30 day period prior
12:23 PM [sunshinelvr] min
12:24 PM [sunshinelvr] so you see they have a time crunch
12:24 PM [sunshinelvr] its not up to the goi
12:24 PM [Deneco] sunshinelvr so probably looking at something around the end of ramadan, or even during the holiday.
12:24 PM [nick s] I still worry about the GOI I hope you are right and its part of the plan
12:24 PM [bigrocks85] sunshinelvr ok great infor
12:24 PM [sunshinelvr] and that another reason you see H on a world tour
12:24 PM [sunshinelvr] shes telling these places to make sure they have everything set for the flip
12:25 PM [bigrocks85] sunshinelvr or maybe bill wants her gone so he can mmmm
12:25 PM [Motorco] sunshinelvr I wondered about H going all those places, makes sense now
12:25 PM [sunshinelvr] and they could be dragging their feet and we r focused on iraq
12:25 PM [sunshinelvr] slight of hand trick
12:25 PM [bigrocks85] sunshinelvr or they arnt ready yet
12:25 PM [sunshinelvr] right and shes there to kick their hiny in gear too
12:25 PM [Motorco] sunshinelvr You are smoking today, good job!
12:26 PM [sunshinelvr] so im not too worried about this here really
12:26 PM [bigrocks85] sunshinelvr or they will be left out
12:26 PM [sunshinelvr] the articles coming out are almost ALL crap
12:26 PM [sunshinelvr] its by design
12:26 PM [sunshinelvr] Motorco thanks
12:27 PM [sunshinelvr] but remember I have NO intel and NOT a guru
12:27 PM [sunshinelvr]
12:27 PM [RDP_62] sunshinelvr so what is the latest date you see an rv?
12:27 PM [bigrocks85] wheres h now
12:27 PM [Dinarkicker] sunshinelvr May I post this in the forum Chat
12:27 PM [sunshinelvr] it should be by the end of AUG
12:28 PM [dinarrv9911] sunshinelvr So, are you saying that the RV will happen by the end of Sept, and then bamking reform will be finished in Oct?
12:28 PM [Motorco] sunshinelvr gurus dont use actual documents…so no worries there
12:28 PM [sunshinelvr] Oh sure but im a nobody just your local news hound
12:28 PM [sunshinelvr]
12:28 PM [Dinarkicker] its good info
12:28 PM [leggman24] Motorco
12:28 PM [leggman24] Motorco
12:28 PM [sunshinelvr] ok sure be sure to include my disclaimer
12:29 PM [Dinarkicker] It will
12:29 PM [Motorco] Dinarkicker do it, its great info!
12:29 PM [sunshinelvr] dinarrv9911 theres more to it than that
12:29 PM [sunshinelvr] the isx info is a good indicator
12:29 PM [leggman24] sunshinelvr probably one of the best i think.
12:29 PM [Motorco] sunshinelvr I wish more than that one article on the isx was out
12:30 PM [sunshinelvr] also the miliatry is supposed to be pulled out by the end of aug
12:30 PM [sunshinelvr] also there was an article i think from the cbi that said it wouldn’t happen until the pullout
12:30 PM [sunshinelvr] i think that was from last year
12:32 PM [sunshinelvr] so we are seeing all these different aspects starting to come together to one point
12:32 PM [sunshinelvr] it takes time to move all those variables to one major point in history
12:33 PM [Motorco] sunshinelvr It will be a world wide event, that is for sure
12:33 PM [sunshinelvr]
12:34 PM [sunshinelvr] But I really think that it will not be announced as a major event on the evening news
12:34 PM [sunshinelvr] this is the stuff that the govts do
12:34 PM [Motorco] sunshinelvr agree I mean the impact of it
12:34 PM [sunshinelvr] oh for sure
12:35 PM [bigrocks85] sunshinelvr so how will it be announced
12:35 PM [sunshinelvr] and they have to keep things like this on the DL cause you would have all these Chicken Littles running around screaming the sky is falling
12:35 PM [visitor] gm room soooo July26 is gone 27th nearly and according to Scooter and keep the next window is October is that about right
12:35 PM [bigrocks85] its going to be a madhouse here and a nuthouse there
12:36 PM [Motorco] sunshinelvr we are living that right now!
12:36 PM [sunshinelvr] bigrocks85 the best place is to look for the change on the cbi and xe,com and then it will be published in the Gazette in iraq
12:36 PM [sunshinelvr] Motorco
12:36 PM [bigrocks85] visitor no scooter never said oct
12:36 PM [dinarrv9911] sunshinelvr Do you think that it is possible for the banking reform to be delayed (like so many other things), and not be finished until after the end of Oct?
12:36 PM [bigrocks85] said to keep watching
12:36 PM [sunshinelvr] dinarrv9911 No
12:37 PM [bigrocks85] sunshinelvr ok thanks
12:37 PM [sunshinelvr] too many countries are depending on it
12:37 PM [jerry] sunshinelvr do you think its big enuf to pull the usa and others out of this recession???
12:37 PM [sunshinelvr] and there is no way to try and RE-coordinate all that crap for a delay from the IMF no way
12:37 PM [sunshinelvr] jerry they are counting on it
12:38 PM [jerry] sunshinelvr they who??
12:38 PM [dinarrv9911] sunshinelvr Therefore, we are looking for the RV to happen in Oct at the latest?
12:38 PM [sunshinelvr] the govts… un , IMF World Bank, etc
12:38 PM [sunshinelvr] look you’ve had the queen of england leave her island thats no joke
12:39 PM [sunshinelvr] dinarrv9911 it should happen before Oct
12:39 PM [Motorco] dinarrv9911 I say before Oct, if they intend to International with ISX in Oct they need that 30 day window
12:39 PM [caz1104] sunshinelvr and the pope leave his “moon” bubble
12:39 PM [sunshinelvr] dinarrv9911 look at the info scooter has posted about the imf and world bank plans…it is in writting

* Saudi Arabia confirms welcomed all Iraqi figures with the exception of al-Maliki

all quiet in karbala
July 28, 2010 1 Comment
20 year-old Maher Abed is annoyed. The Karbala resident can no longer listen to loud music in his car or celebrate occasions in public with singing and dancing, after the law to curb ‘scandalous behaviour’ in the city.
Maher tries to respect the law. He keeps the volume down while driving but believes the law violates his personal freedoms.
“It was a surprise to us that such a law was issued by an administrative authority,” he said.
Law 114, issued on 22 June, imposes penalties on those in breach, as well as those watching inappropriate video clips in public and shops displaying women’s lingerie.
Nassif Jassem al-Khatabi, Karbala provincial council’s Vice President, does not believe the new law violates people’s personal freedoms.
“People are free to have parties, listen to music and watch any movies they want inside their own homes or in hotels. Shops too can display their products in a respectful way,” he said. “Until recently, things were done improperly and were doing harm to the society’s values. The law aims to curb practices which violate the sanctity of Karbala.”
Influential clergy men and mosques’ preachers warned repeatedly against such ‘violations’ in recent months and years. They blame the government for not putting an end to them and clergy like Sheikh Abdul-Mahdi al-Karbalaei believe that the government has a duty to act because such ‘violations’ “contradict the teachings of Islam”.
Karbala is the world’s holiest Shia city. Millions of pilgrims visit the city every year. This makes it generally a very conservative city and many local residents support the clergy in their quest and welcome the new law.
47 year-old Ridha Abdul-Hussein, an employee of a local communication company, thinks loud music, dancing and singing should be kept from Karbala’s public spaces.
“Conservative families in the city are unable to enjoy their time when they visit public places, such as parks. Young people hang around there, watching scandalous video clips of singers. It violates our beliefs and the tradtions of the city. He said.
Ridha can certainly count on support for his stance from the clergy. Ahmad al-Safi, a spokesperson for Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani, praised the new law and called upon Karbala people to respect it.
Under the new law, violators can be jailed for up to six months, though they are more likely to receive a fine of 100 Iraqi Dinars.
Lawyer, Ahmad Abdul-Hasan al-Nasrawi, said the fine is ridiculous. Based on a law of 1969, it failes to take into account changes in the value of the Iraqi Dinar. He fears that the actual fine will be left completely to the discretion of judges.
“Before 2003, nobody would ever care what music people listened to in their cars, in hotels or in coffee shops,” he said. Many other Karbala residents echoed his views.
Things now have radically changed with the religious authorities becoming dominant. Between 2003-8, citizens were targeted by armed militia groups on the pretext of their listening to music in cars, cafes or shops.
“Nobody ever dared to show any sign of joy during weddings,” said Muhamad Jalal, a retired army office from the city.
“Instead of songs, Mawled ceremonies were held, with only religious songs, even when those getting married were not religious.
“People feared the armed groups because they could enter people’s houses whenever they liked and start firing their guns at the residents, all under the pretext that they could hear sings coming from the house.”
Jalal believes the new law is sure to impact upon personal freedoms and he opposes it.
“No one can predict how the law will be applied and whether the executive authorities will be neutral in enforcing it or not. It’s very possible that the law could create a climate in which certain people are able to act maliciously.”
Ali Kamounah, UNAMI’s coordinator in Karbala, expressed fears that the law would be misused and could easily lead to unfair restrictions on people’s freedom.
“Any person should have the right to do what he wants but should also respect the rights and freedoms of others.
“The law enforcement mechanism is still not clear and raises concerns,” he said.
Karbala’s local government has spoken to UNAMI and assured them that the law is not designed to limit public freedom. So that’s that then. What were we ever worried about?
No intention to change the exchange rate of the Iraqi dinar
July 28, 2010 Leave a Comment
Baghdad: Iraq’s inflation rate remained at its lowest level in three decades for the second straight month in May due to lower prices for food, non-alcoholic beverages, communications and energy, a senior central bank official said yesterday.
Inflation was unchanged at three per cent in May versus April, and down from 4.7 per cent in May 2009, Mudher Qasim, the central bank’s adviser, said in an exclusive interview in Iraq’s capital, Baghdad.
Last cut
Qasim said the central bank has no plans to cut interest rates. Iraq’s central bank last cut its base interest rate by 100 basis points to six per cent in April.
The bank also has no intention to change the exchange rate of the Iraqi dinar, which has been at 1,170 to the US dollar for more than a year, in the foreseeable future, he added.
* Fund Transfer of “the Development of Iraq ” from the United Nations to Baghdad
July 28, 2010 1 Comment
07/27/2010
Announced the Board of Supreme Audit in Iraq, the UN Security Council to transfer the management of the Development Fund for Iraq to the government authorities. The head of the Audit Court, Abdel Basset Turki said the transfer of the box to the Iraqi authorities “complements our national sovereignty.”
He noted that a committee of financial experts, the Iraqis, which is headed “offered an alternative plan to the UN Security Council during the recent talks held in the July 12, this involves the transfer of management of the Development Fund for Iraq to the Iraqi authorities to continue to pay 5 percent of imports of Iraqi oil to fund the United Nations Compensation. “
He pointed out that “the aim of the plan is to end the extraordinary situation of the Development Fund for Iraq and the transfer of management and supervision tasks to the Iraqi authorities,” pointing at the same time that “the Security Council announced its approval of the plan and pledged to follow-up.”
