Thread: Iraq/Dinar News. 09/05 to 01/14/07

I was just thinking, even if they do RV and give the citizens 10k dinars. Must remember that they intend to adjust prices in Iraq as well. Iraq is a mess and I think 10k is a good pay off to get their lives back together. Does anybody know what the pay off was for the citizens of New Orleans who was victims of katrina who got mis placed? I am sure they recieved some kind of card that paid out cash and also assistance with housing and food and other things but wonder what all this added up to per citizen/family from FIMA and other agencies?

ust read over at iif ,someone emailed warka and they replied saying the fil has passed but it will not go into efect untill a month from now .could this hold up the reval?

I didn't say that the FIL wasn't passed. Yes, there was news of this passing of FIL. But Iraq plans an important announcement on October 12. I believe this announcement will be to show the FIL to the world.... and to "pat itself' on the back and get the business world excited about the investment law.

Article VIII an IMF guideline on tradable currency.

If you're talking about the Visa card that they got I think it was only for $2,500 to take care of short-term needs.

Actually, it says "within" a month. I sure hope it gets settled before the end of October.

$2,000 debit cards for Katrina victims
Families at Astrodome are to get them today
The Associated Press


Updated: 5:20 a.m. MT Sept 8, 2005
WASHINGTON - The federal government plans to hand out debit cards worth $2,000 each to families displaced by Hurricane Katrina.

Homeland Security Department Secretary Michael Chertoff, under fire for his agency’s response to the disaster, held a conference call with governors of states with evacuees and described the plan. While many details remained to be worked out, the plan was to quickly begin distributing the cards, starting with people in major evacuation centers such as the Houston Astrodome.

White House press secretary Scott McClellan said the cards are aimed at providing “some immediate cash assistance to those who are in shelters, those that were evacuated.”

Republican Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, who participated in the conference call, said the cards will be offered “to people in shelters as well as people who are not in shelters but who have evacuated the area and need help.” He said the hope is the cards will encourage people to leave shelters voluntarily.

Only for neediest
The Federal Emergency Management Agency is administering the program. FEMA officials said the program is aimed at those most in need, so not all families that fled their homes will be eligible.

“For instance you may have some people who have insurance and insurance is meeting their living expenses while they have been displaced,” said Ed Conley, a FEMA spokesman in Houston. “You have some people who may be looking at an option such as a cruise ship where all of their needs are going to be met. It is going to vary by family.”

The cards are to be used to help victims purchase food, transportation and other essentials.

It’s unclear how much the debit card program will cost the government, but it could run into the hundreds of millions of dollars since hundreds of thousands of people have been displaced.

Alaska Gov. Frank Murkowski, a Republican, said he had concerns about the potential for abuse.

“That’s a lot of money. The question is how do you separate the needy from those who just want a $2,000 handout,” he said.

Photos used to curb abuse
The cards will be issued on a one-per-household basis, said Natalie Rule, a FEMA spokeswoman in Washington. As a safeguard against fraud, FEMA will use aerial photographs of devastated areas to verify that the refugees were, indeed, forced from their homes in cases where they cannot provide documents to prove their losses or identities.

“We’ve got a huge population of people that have been evacuated with very little by way of possessions and we have to have a way to make sure these people can function,” Rule said. “If there are those who are out there to cheat the system, that is going to be very disappointing. But the main goal is to get the aid out.”

Rule said the agency was setting up registration centers in shelters in Houston and Dallas where evacuees could obtain the cards.

FEMA is working to set up similar registration centers in other shelters across the country, Rule said, and evacuees can also get the debit cards by calling 1-800-621-FEMA or going to the agency’s web site at FEMA | Federal Emergency Management Agency.

I just wanted to post this again...I am sure most have seen it. It was the main reason that I pulled the trigger and invested in this.


New Iraqi Dinar (NID)-Presidential Order 13303 allows US Citizens to invest in the New Iraq

I just got back from a Chamber of Commerce meeting in Newport Beach, CA - I was talking to a stock broker who's eyes got big when I mentioned Iraqi dinar - "Oh yeah, that's going to be HUGE for the people who get in on it early!" WOO HOO!

Holiday gift!

Editor

Do not believe that the gift of the feast of the family and the Iraqi identified ten thousand dinars each citizen that will make the occasion this year is fine and that the family will live Iraqi celebration has provided its requirements for new clothing and food is distinctive and exceptional cost of this gift which perhaps will not be enough to buy a pair of small children and unable to provide vial G. The presentations and one can draw upon the forty family fire throughout the three-day Eid al-Fitr holiday. I firmly believe that these ten thousand (Eideh) government for its citizens would be in addition to worries are accumulated on the citizen.
Ftab obtained from the bank will not paralleled by value in any way that many citizens will be reluctant to audit banks for the receipt and no longer preparing for this for the purchase of ten thousand بالفين or three and this is what will happen and to invest this gift from Nhazi opportunities in these areas, as was usually the case.
The Iraqi citizens need to be a gift, but really this amount is not small, hardly a comfort that he needs a loan to build a house and need to advance can be reintroduced in the run out of the furniture and equipment necessary for life. The amount of ten thousand dinars, which will be received by the father of the baby girl will not encouraged to get to the purchase of clothing items. What we want in the future to exceed the amount of government price gift (bag Privet) only.
Every Day We are fine!
