Thats what we are hoping for with Iraq. With the FIL now passed, the other issue wont be a problem either, because foreigners are being encouraged to invest so i cannot see them restricting cashing in to residents only.

Probably get some trouble outside the local Kebeb House on the way home from the boozer.

Susie have you heard anything from the lawyer

"ok, heres my newest scoop i got when i came home tonight. a friend talked to a lawyer who works in some capacity for the cbi and was told that everything is done and must be announced before the 1st. so somebody needs to get that countdown clock fired up again and get us a countdown goin here!!!

woOt!!!!!!!!!"""

Not heard anything going out yet matey.

Quite interesting, nothing on the economy, only the security. They did say they were working on improving the economy........ Had the US ambassador for Iraq on who said they would not send more troops over, same as the UK. They had on the Iraqi deputy pm, Saleh on, very articulate, very clued up. He was saying they need our troops there as long as possible to help curb the militias until their own troops are ready to handle the situation.

I got the impression just from the interviews that the US are getting extremely miffed at the delays and that the fact they're not controlling it very well out there.

Jeremy Paxman is an obnoxious facker!

I posted this earlier but I thought I should throw it out there again in case it was just overlooked....Any thoughts.

I am not sure if this is anything of significance so if somebody with more insight might know. We know that CBI has the updated publication dated 10/18/06. I also was searching around and found this document which is a spreadsheet. You have to play around with it to get it open. This has information from 10/18/06 including foreign assets. It is called KEY FINANCIAL INDICATORS FOR OCTOBER 18, 2006....which seems odd since CBI was down during this period. Again, I don't decipher the financial info as well as most of you so I don't know if it means anything.

Hehe...I saw that interview too... and yes indeed... but what else do you want but the bottomline to be heard and we DO AWAY with all the diplomatic wrangling and protocol talk...that is NOT helping out with the real situation on the field those poor chaps are subjected to with their lives...just to help save a land and folks that are simply numb and still oblivion on gratitude and sacrifice the world out there is granting with their political butts beaten on by back-benchers at home soil!!!

My take on this for Salih is.... : Boldly step in, with the curent full might of the now revamped Iraqi new born army to impose a nation wide Marshal Law, grab all those munitions and fireware from both sides esp. from the Sadr's militia camp and the Sunnis too and in the course of it, allow the ordinary Iraqis to "lynch" any suspected "foreign insurgent" still hiding in whatever foxhole he/she is in... let the job be done by themselves, saves bullets and risks and a clean bill of helth will soon clear the air and streets of Iraq....

I'm thinking of the way the Japs overrun Asia back then...even the Triad went helpless and ducked until there was no place left to hide and got strung up by their S-holes and eliminated!!! It should and could be applied here too...no need for all that anti-Muslim rhetoric involved and those martyrdom-madness talk either....

Trouble with the muslims...they talk BIG when against the West and Christians,... but they shower cowardness against their own fellow faith....weird isn't it???

YB. - cheers to all wanting peace instead and Dinars to RV as well...!

News conference on FOX. Live now

They just cut away and said if there was any big news they would go back. Dang!
