    woOt!!!!!!!!!
    Susie, if I am reading this correctly, this lawyer is NOT your primary source, is he? What does this lawyer say about the rate, then? I have heard you mention a .93 -.98 Euro before, and then intimated that you've heard a higher number... Thanks...
    SOON. Ready to change my name.

    Default Truck and Barter forum rumors

    picked these Bagdad rumors off another forum;
    He and his wife are friends
    s of mine-he works in Iraq for Haliburton. So far, his truck has been bombed out twice from under him-first time, he walked away okay-second time, he was injured and is still recovering. This is the first time he has called (been there for over two years) his wife with this kind of information. I talked with her last Sunday and have been checking everywhere I can for info-and asking others on these boards (with more sources than me) for confirmation. I emailed her last night-she also has been trying to confirm. I am posting our emails back and forth last night:
    __________________________________________________ _____________
    He has a new computer, but he can't access the internet. The military has put a block on all wireless access. Naturally, they do that after we buy a computer for him to take back with him this last time. I just have to wait for him to call me. Hopefully he will call tomarrow!! The info he got came from one of the guys that had just come off a convoy from Baghdad. He said that every one in Baghdad was twitterpated and now it has spread all the way to his camp. His friend said that he tried to get them to tell him how he knew that the Dinar was about to come out and they said "We can't tell you, but just trust us, we have inside info." Now what ever that means. And since David is on light duty and can't drive right now, he won't be going to Baghdad any time soon as far as I know. I really wish I knew what they were talking about TOO! I have been watching this stuff around the clock since a week ago this past Thursday night. I haven't seen anything else either. I've seen the tiny flux in the dinar too but that's about it. I'll let you know as soon as I hear anything I promise, and you do the same okay. Crystal

    Did he elaborate on why they are thinking that it's going to revalue? I've been watching it closely this week (more so than usual) and still haven't seen any kind of movement other than an up and down between 1475 dinars to the dollar down to 1466 to the dollar and back up again. Also, have been looking through any source I can find on the net and nothing. They have to have heard something that has them worked up. It had to come from somewhere. If it's just a rumor-such as we get here-almost monthly-then it's a believe it when I see it. If it's valid information, sure wish we could find out where it came from.

    Can you, perhaps, email him and obtain a little more information?
    Thanks

    I haven't heard from David the last couple days. But when he called on Tuesday he said that everyone was still twitterpated over there. And he is still hearing $1.68 to the Dinar. I can't imagine that, but that's what he is hearing. He said for me to just keep a good eye on things for now, just in case it isn't just a rumor!! I've had my TV on the stock channel for the last week and I had my neighbor set my computer to alert me when there is a change in the Currency. It's crazy! If I hear anymore I'll yell at cha. I did find out that Wells Fargo will be trading and when it does go on the world market all I have to do is take it to any branch and they will take care of it for me. I think they said that there will be a one time $5.00 fee. I told my mother to go to Amarillo tomarrow and open up an account with Wells Fargo so that's what she is doing. I already have an account with them. We don't have the bank you were talking about down south. Talk to ya later, Crystal

    Hi-

    Nothing so far-have you heard any more from David? Has he given you any more information?

    As I stated before, not going to hold my breath - just hopeful. What I can't believe is if it does revalue, it would be $1.68 to the dollar. They started buying their dinars mid 2004 and this is the first time he has ever told his wife anything like this before. You may be right-the service men may be picking up rumors - like us - from the internet. Normally, I simply post news items I see that I believe would be of interest. Since this is the first time this has happened, I wanted to post it and see if anyone could find any validity to David's call

    Default Heres another

    This also off T&B forum:

    rote:
    MaryLou,

    I have four family members in Iraqi, two very near the greenzone and one inside -- ALL CAMPS have been placed under "unusually" strict gag orders...I was told that a US military Captain has visited each camp and given each IT supervisor instructions to monitor all computer transactions and phone calls and that "NONE" are to be made unless they are completely and 100% business related...they were not given a time frame, but I was told that in three years this person has never seen such strictness on any gag order...now, your husband being wounded may make it different for him -- I don't know -- this is just what I've been told. Also, from the greenzone..."there's been an abnormally high amount of activity in the last few days, and it all appears to be from really high ranking officials from all over the world."

    That's all I could get -- we were cut off... Yes, it could be indirectly related to Radana, but the impression I got was that it was TO strict, TO direct and way TO much activity for it to be related to the event ... MY OPINION, it's because the r/v is coming ANY DAY!

    Anybody else hear anything...?

    Default Also from T&Bforum

    Roger....

    All communications at Warka are functional, e-mail, phones, etc. but the portion of their site that requires an ID and password are temporarily shut down for maintenance and up-grade.
    I'm a Systems Engineer by profession and to me that always means something positive is happening, especially the Up-grade part.

    Their main site lists a lot of features that aren't implemented at this time. I think they, or their supplier, are installing and testing the full package that's advertised on the main site.

    If my hunch is correct then what they're doing is....GOOD FOR US AND THE DINAR!!

    From my military experience they will do a lockdown of communications prior to high priority missions...for example; they may be hitting a terrorist cell in the near future, and don't want any leaks.

    Not saying this is the case, just another reason why communications might be sparce.

    But, as always- let's hope for the best!
    Everyone goes home.

    100% behind the Dinar

    Hey everyone...

    Just wanted to let you know that a $1.68 per dinar or any value like that is impossible because there are 10 trillion (10,000,000,000,000) in circulation.

    Even 25 cents per dinar would give Iraq more M2 than the United States... Its just not possible. Best of luck, though!

    Not sure about your comment on 10 trillion in circulation. Seems to me I have seen 3 or 4 trillion mentioned as the amount in circulation. Could you please clarify where you got this figure from? Or can anyone else shed some light on this?

    Thanks

    No problem... I get my figures from the CBI (Central Bank of Iraq).

    Their website posts a Monetary Aggregates spreadsheet... :

    http://www.cbiraq.org/Monetary%20Aggregates.xls

    They actually say 17 trillion M2, with 7 trillion in the bank and 10 trillion outside in the wild.

    He must work for the CBI because they're the only ones who truly know the amount in circulation. Good to have an insider here. Good luck!!!!!
