Thank you for clearing this matter for the most on our behalf..
We are under nonstop DDOs attack. Our servers were not so well protected as we thought in the start, and due to this our site was down 3 days this week. We got a reliable DDos protection partner now, and hope they will be able to filter out most of the attack. The problem is, a reliable DDos host is very expensive, and to maintain your site against such attack of this magnitude, it costs alot. (Thousands...)
Our site's loads much faster due to the changes, and server tweaks. A team is hired to deal with this matter for Rolclub..
This is being dealth with on manual to protection level. We also dropped apache server and installed a better webserver to make
pages load fast, and due to this our site runs with lower load even under the DDOs attack... Many things have had to be re-configured, tweaked, fixed, edited, added, removed. We even noticed attempts of hacking on our host over the past week, which have all been blocked...
The first DDos attack this month of Rolclub was detected the 19th MAY, and ever since then, we are under attack. 11 day, with 3 down time days- 2 partly downtime due to tweaks and changes.. We are very sorry for the down time, but we are on our way into the 12th day with continuing attacks..
Here are 3 ref. threads you can read about how we have been dealing with this attack:

So we are not just online now coz we are. Lots of work is behind staying online for us at this point in time. Whoever is doing this, must have a very strong will to bring us down..
I guess i am a bit off-topic with this info posted here, but thought i post it for those members that didnt know, have questions in this thread or didnt read the updates section.. Lets go back to the topic of this thread now guys..
Regards

PUKMedia - a reputable Iraqi/Kurdistan Newspaper is down. It was down a couple of weeks ago - there was a back way in for a couple of weeks, then it was back to normal. Down again now and no back way in this time.

Saudi Arabia's documents on Iraq debts insufficient – PM
The information provided by Saudi Arabia regarding its alleged debts on Iraq is still insufficient, Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki said, adding dialogue was going on, though, to reach a solution.
"These documents and information need more clarifications, contacts and consultations between Iraq and Saudi Arabia to get to know the volume and reality about these debts," Maliki said in a press conference he held on Thursday in the Swedish capital Stockholm, where he attended the International Compact with Iraq (ICI) annual review conference.
"Some documents suggest debts without service and others with service," he said, noting "the most assuring thing is that there is a will for a dialogue between us (and Saudi Arabia) to reach a solution to this issue, which we hope to see soon."
Last month, Maliki, during a speech he delivered at the Iraq neighbors conference hosted by Kuwait, has appealed to Arab countries to write their due debts off Iraq like some European countries did.
The meeting was attended by the foreign ministers of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), the five UNSC permanent states and representatives of 24 Arab and international organizations as well as U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice.
According to U.S. State Department estimations, some $56 billion of Iraq's debts were written off while the remaining sum lies somewhere between $56 billion and $80 billion, more than half of them are due for Gulf states.
The United States has written all of its $4.1 billion off Iraq while the Paris Club members dropped $42.3 billion, a sum that represents 80 percent of its total due money in November 2004 during the tenure of Iyad Allawi's government, which then urged "Arab brothers" to follow suit of foreign nations.
The Paris Club is an informal group of financial officials from 19 of the world's richest countries, which provides financial services such as debt restructuring, debt relief, and debt cancellation to indebted countries and their creditors. Debtors are often recommended by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) after alternative solutions have failed.
It meets every six weeks at the French Ministry of the Economy, Finance, and Industry in Paris. It is chaired by a senior official of the French Treasury.
In the 1990s, the club began to treat the Highly-Indebted Poor Countries (HIPCs) and non-HIPCs differently. The club began to grant increasingly larger debt reductions for the HIPCs. For the non-HIPCs, the club engaged less in debt reductions and moved towards encouraging the absorption of non-HIPCs' financial losses by bondholders and other private creditors.
Gulf states, namely Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, had agreed to drop a big chunk, scores of billions of dollars, of their debts off Iraq a few years ago, but Iraq wants these promises materialized on the ground.
