The IQD Team plus LJ's Next Step Team
Two Teams, One Vision Working Together arriving at the same place for the Dinar Community
LJ'S Next Step Team brings some great research, analysis and discussion about their research today about The Memorandum of Understanding and USAID - Very excited today because we were thinking it was a very slow dead end news day and then we looked and dug a little deeper at what we initially thought we read to determine what was MEANT to be read it..IT CHANGED THINGS and now we can see things a little bit differently from 5 days ago and what progess we have made and why we are not seeing as much as we used to see so when we share it with you we think you will have a better understanding of why we think we are in a better situation than we were at Noon Pacific time....researched the agreement and the man behind it...Alexander Dickie, Mission Director..who has been there since August 2010.....more than likely present in the meeting about the Erbil Agreement and shared several news articles that tie it together...Listen to recording for all the great information and research shared..
"U.S. Embassy and the Office of the Prime Minister sign a cooperation agreement for administrative reform in the country"
Signed the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad today by the U.S. Agency for International Development [USAID] Memorandum of Understanding with the Office of the Prime Minister outlines support for U.S. efforts to alleviate the Iraqi administrative obstacles in the Iraqi private sector and in line with the strategic framework agreement.
And the "implementation of these reforms will send a clear message to international business that Iraq is laying the foundations of a new economic at a fast pace."
Alexander Dickie, Mission Director
Dr. Alexander Dickie was appointed USAID’s Mission Director for Iraq in August 2010. He previously was the Director of USAID’s Middle East/Iraq (ME/IR) Office in Washington, DC, and was responsible for the management of USAID’s programs supporting the efforts to rebuild Iraq and assist the transition to stability and democracy.
Odai Awad: There is a consensus to approve the oil and gas law
There is the 2007 agreement and there is the 2011 agreement...what 2011 agreement?...At the beginning of this year they rushed thru another version of this Oil & Gas Law....I call this the Signing of the Contracts Law just to clarify...2007 when you go back and you tie into what LJ talked abut tonight and everybody moving together with the original intent of what was signed back in 2010 - part of what was signed in 2010 was this 2007 agreement on the Oil & Gas..this is how the contracts will be signed and how the money is going to be split...This is what the Kurds have been working off of...They know it is constitutional..it was written by people who know its beneficial to them
as well as Maliki and Baghdad - it gives everybody enough money and it gives enough authority to the regions to do what they need to do.....to be a little bit autonomous...basically they get to negotiate it and they sign off on it or earmark these things and they jsut do the formalities..pass them and take their percentages and go
All comes back to what we talked about before...You see how in the end the Kurds get a bit more of the benefit because they are part of the largest population....they add a lot to the oil production so therefore because of that they get treated a little bit better and if you are Maliki and you don't want all of this to happen these are the blocks..this is what has been putting people in the way...So they are ready to go...
I will go on the theme tonight with LJ and the NEXT STep Team...something has changed very dramatically because we have seen the rheurotic change and drop in the government
we can see these things that were brought to you today that really make us think we need to keep a close eye on things..
Recap of tonights news Discussion and Analysis
(Listen to the recording for all of the detailed analysis of the articles discussed after each news article listed below)
Recap: CBI/Economy - Straight Talkin Mike
CBI is done....CBI is done...CBI is done
They need no more information to go ahead and get the currency going
Remember to watch out for articles coming from The Finance Committee - they don't have any power over this - they wish they did
We talked about the Hilton and the Sports Complex- countries ready to come in and invest - they are still there and they are NOT pulling out which means the situation is becoming stable - we hear international...international all the time - when LJ does his recap you are going to hear a little bit about why we are having that push...they are ready- it is time now to get the parties together - time to stop the bickering - time to start moving forward - and its time to Let Dr Shabibi do his stuff - we need everybody to be quiet to let that happen as far as the Finance Committee goes...no more leaking information they get ahold of that they think is juicy because they want an advantage over this or that - time to stop scaring the people inside the country with this change and know that it is coming...let it come and let Shabibi work his magic...THE CBI IS READY....
Recap: Government LJ's Next Step Team
LJ: Everything is working together for an eventual climax of allowing Shabibi to act...
We have been wondering what the government is doing for a little bit of time and wondering why they haven't made the steady paced advantage we would like to see them make it
This is a paving of the way of democracy there....last thing I want to say is we have to be patient.....of course we do....I have been patient and I know many don't want to wait anymore..and Neither do I...but we have to let this play out and be patient....we have been looking for a needle in a haystack for you guys and we share with each other what we find thru the News to figure out what is going on...Don has been tearing this apart all day as well....I can bring something to Don and he always tears it apart first and try to find the areas of concern and find the common ground to share with you
Today we learned about Alex Dickie and how instrumental he is helping countries do what they do...we know that agriculture is going to be a big part of the area of revenue for Iraq...tourism as Mike talked about on the last call....Of course oil everybody knows that - so the different sectors of business there has to be an understanding from the government down....has to be a top down system where the govt understands how to manage it and if this guy Dickie is not only instrumental in helping them with democracy and stability but also brings his business sense where he can show them how they can maximize their resources so that they can make the most out of them.....what better guy to have sitting over in the Embassy with his wife to help them accomplish that...its about trying to figure out what is going on what was going on with that MOU and find out why it was so important and to inform all of the listeners out there that we need to understand these things because on a slow news day like today...we might as well learn something....We are not going to get an RV today...so lets learn something new that helps us build on what where we are trying to go...
And that is what we did.....We see an attitude of cohesiveness....we see them trying to work together....and bridging the gaps that they have...they have them....they know it is not going to be perfect...they all know they have to give a little to get a whole lot.....because when they establish themselves the master plan will really set itself in place and these Syria, Iran issues they won't go away...you will still see issues with that and people who have their own agenda like Al Queda groups
But You are going to see a more unified and professional Middle East whereas they have kinda been in disarray ....I think What happens in Iraq will set the tone for what will happen in the region and it will have world implications as well and all of us from America to Germany to Japan and China and all of the other Brics nation all will be converging on Iraq to be apart of whats going on there....everybody wants to make money and they are going to be spending it pretty soon
What we felt like we found today is a Gentlemen who is over their who is instrumental in showing them the way and hopefully he is one who can do so without being abrupt or having any type of arrogance
that people always seem to think the Americans have....and do what he is capable of doing and what he has done for the last 20 years
Arthur: Very important what you said LJ.....we are looking at a country that is forming a democracy..a fledging democracy...and it was put together a Plan.. a Strategic Framework Plan was put together by Dickie and the others with the others with that plan ..democracy right there in that region that could be like a shining example of democracy for the rest of the other countries...you look at Libya...Syria...Egypt in turmoil right now - they will be looking for a model and that is one of the reasons we haven't seen an RV yet because as the model is supposed to...as a kid you were taught you cant have any candy until you clean up your room....we are watching Iraq clean up their room - they are getting a little help to clean it up since last week but they are cleaning up the room and when they get thru doing that...thats when Shabibi will give the go ahead to move ahead with the currency and match the stability we can see in the country
When you read the MOU you see words like fast paced....they are going to get this done to remove all of the obstacles that we have seen that have impeded there ability for them to become the democracy they need to be to show the stability that they need to see....if you look at the American dollar its a fiat currency but what it is backed by is the stability of US....stability of our country makes our dollar what it is...same thing for Iraq...they have the oil...now they just need the stability...They are fast paced to get there and in my opinion as this MOU and the help they are getting and the way they themselves know it is time to stop bickering and get this big economic powerhouse on the road we are going to probably see fast track heading to the National Meeting with Talabani calling and get us everything we want and the blessing we and Iraq deserve for all of the time we have been in this
Discussion about how we break apart the news and work together as two teams who want to get to the truth and share it with our listeners....Great discussion.....
One particular guru said the news is not true and there is nothing in the news - don't waste your time.....The news articles have meaning and there are good people who really work for a living to bring us the news....To say the news articles don't hold any weight...have no merit and have no validity and we still havent rv'd yet I think we will take the news over the guy who has called it every day for the last year
What a great call.......Must listen to.....
And there you have it...
