Thread: Iraq/Dinar News to April 19, 2007 10PM CST

It was a travesty that he was allowed into the political process at all. Maybe they'll re-issue the warrant for him now! woo hoo!

Perhaps I'm looking at this wrong, but isn't it BETTER if Sadr's people AREN'T in the government? I'm thinking the less negative influence and 'bully-ing' the better...

so in my limited understanding of all this,
al-sadr is the bad guy that wants civil unrest?
it was partially because of the sh*t he was starting, that the reval was
delayed?
he is now leaving peacfully?
this will help the reval move along?

i hope to God that it does, i just picked up another 100k just cause that news made me so happy, thats definitely one road block outta the way, maybe he finally got a clue and actually started caring about his country, or he was stalling so he could buy up some dinar of his own lol

Good question and it is hard to tell. Maliki will most likely replace the 6 ministers with more illiterate, corrupt and lazy shiites like himself so nothing will change. The elegant solution is to get rid of Maliki and replace him and the 6 ministers with Kurds.

aww man why can't they just do whats best for their country now and be lazy later after they have everything set up and in place and are makin money off all that oil and have a currency thats worth somethin.....then be lazy and not wanna do anything
