Not my idea lifted it from IIF but it makes an interesting point



If memory serves,security features are expensive. (about .10 to .12 cents per note) This is why we don't protect anything under ten dollars. This might make a person wonder why anyone would pay .10 to protect a half a penny. Unless the fifty dinar note, at the time of conception, was already destined to be a whole lot more.

A senior official at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, demanding, The other topic discussed, to be anonymous, because he is not authorized to discuss the subject openly, he said «We face chaos and difficulties».

When Bush and Rice up to the Jordanian capital, Amman today, they seek to gain help Arab leaders in order to stop the violence in Iraq. through the exercise pressure on the rebels year. This was part of the task of Vice President Dick Cheney. , who met with the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz, during a brief visit to Saudi Arabia last Saturday, and according to the officials in the administration.

Rice argues in favor of strengthening work on the Israeli-Palestinian front, It appeared several times in the autumn instant, they were on the verge of a major peace initiative obstruction other crises.

Apart from Israel. another part of the game is whether the United States will involve Iran and Syria directly, This Administration seems unwilling to do, despite the references to the study group formed by the Kurdistan regional diplomatic initiative recommends include both countries. The pressure mounts towards initiating talks with the two countries are taking part in this invitation Former officials in the administration. He said Theodore Katov, the former ambassador of President Bush to Syria, «The Syrians say they could influence negatively on the situation in Lebanon and cause harm to our friends, They could influence negatively on Iraq. The closely diplomacy in general, if you were not prepared to achieve the aims through war, you have to participate in the type of negotiations under the bargains. It is unfortunate that there is a lot of give and take between the United States and Syria at the present time ».

Thanks

I would think it would be best for the CBI to start at $0.04 or something low (not that I want this of course). From their standpoint, they are not putting dinar in circulation any longer. They are in fact trying to take as much as possible OUT of circulation to minimize their liability. Thus, whatever dinar is out in circulation upon reval (regardless of rv amount) has to be covered regardless of whose hands they are in (ours or the big dawgs). If it lets loose at $0.04, many small fish who are tired of this coaster will be cashing in. True that the big dawgs may buy in as much as possible but at the same time the CBI has a chance to grab some at $0.04 and take it out of circulation. at a higher rv amount, the big dawgs may be reluctant to buy in, plus the CBI is now liable for ALL the dinar in circulation.

I may be way off here. I'm just thinking out loud. Sorry.

It's 72 Virgins & they all look like Osama Bin Laden...
