1-16-11 GET Conference Call Notes

Highlights/Thoughts
Notes from GET call
·        They do not make up information.  It is information passed onto them from sources, but things change that they do not see.  Things pop up.
·        A lot of things happened this weekend
·        Lot of talk of cashing in on Tuesday
·        Reading of the budget baffles TK.  Articles that show it is done, but there are articles that say it hasn’t even been read yet
·        2 guest speakers tonight
·        Al:
o       Discussed site statistics
o       Talked about party
·        Rodney
o       Talked to friend about Jordan bank etc….they’ve had numerous confirmations
o       His friend has an acquaintance that is an American citizen in Jordan
o       His friend said everything that’s been said about the bank is true
o       Talked about requirements for exchanging
o       In touch with software developer of website.  Said they made a mistake.  Think they got in trouble with Jordanian government
o       Went over economics with some people
o       3 days ago big article came out regarding global settlements; stuff that he was addressing before; everyone should look at this
o       It is important to understand the full spectrum of things
o       If you analyze this through a very narrow funnel (what’s date and rate?), you’re going to get frustrated
o       There are no coincidences
·        Ray
o       Trust unlimited information
·        TK
o       Ty will cash you out at $150 per transaction instead of $150 per million
·        Steve
o       Going to give his book to everyone on GET that wants it
o       Talking with friend Patty, who is a great newshound
o       Told her that he’s done everything that he can do to prepare everyone for this
o       Spoke of his plan
·        Blaino
o       Looking at why things are being delayed
o       Backroom negotiating and dealing having to do with resolution 687 (reparations to Kuwait)
o       Source gets this from his contact
o       Blaino doesn’t have a personal connection to source
o       Iraqi govt will pay 1,000 IQD to each citizen born before 2/11, and the IQD will have a guaranteed min value of $3.59
o       Will have a food card issued to each Kuwaiti family, and will be good for some value and charged back to Iraqi government.  Cards good until 3/31/2012.  Haven’t issued cards yet
§         [*****] ***** Kuwait Amir grants KD 1,000 for every citizen on nat''l celebrations occasion KUWAIT, His Highness the Amir Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Sabah orders an Amiri grant of KD 1,000 (USD 3,559) for every Kuwaiti citizen including those born until February 1, 2011, a senior government official said Sunday. Minister o State for Cabinet Affairs Roudhan Al-Roudhan said Sheikh Sabah ordered the grant on the occasion of the 50th independence anniversary, 20th liberation anniversary and 5th anniversary of Sheikh Sabah's assumption of office, due next month. Furthermor, Al-Roudhan said food ration would be offered for free between February 1, 2011 and March 31, 2012.
·        Okie
o       So much activity going on within the last several days which is promoting our point in time
o       Positive things that have happened
§         People will not appreciate and know the extent the work that Biden did when he was in Iraq
§         Fact that Canada removed IQD off of their OFAC list and made it a recognized currency is a major consequence
§         For the first time since the invasion of Kuwait, Emir visited and left happy.  Will probably never know what happened
§         Reparations was probably addressed
§         We are practically at the apex
§         Projection is that RV will be on Tuesday.  If something comes up that may stop it, he’s not aware
§         He only has positive intel
§         Information on the cash out in Jordan is that there were only 200 people or entities that cashed out.  Requirements we were aware of were correct.  2.88 and 3.88 were mentioned as cash out values
·        Questions
o       What are projections of the value of the dinar over a 1 or 2 year period
§         There is a possibility being first followed by and RV at a later date after the zeros have been pulled in.  IMF may have a restriction of 18 months where the initial value must remain constant.  If they come out at $5.27, it probably won’t appreciate much further.  Will take 5 to 7 years for them to develop infrastructure before they can get all the oil sold.  Could we be seeing an unofficial RI at 3.22 with an unofficial timeframe allowing what is happening in the ME right now?  Then, later see the 6 plus rate at the CBI.
§         Blaino received a lot of intel from bankers.  Bankers shared with his friend that the rate will be the 5.27 rate and we should see it Tuesday morning.
§         Okie thinks that they cannot come out at a high rate because of the shock the surrounding countries will feel.  On the flip side, the high rate will incentivize foreign investors.  There is probably an equilibrium there somewhere, but he doesn’t know where it is
Okie says no one is cashing in at Hong Kong
Al knows someone that cashed in at 3.22 (an overseas source; not willing to give country; someone they take to frequently)
Note: It was mentioned on the call that ledger to ledger transfer will be better than wire.  If you wire, you may not see your money until after Homeland security has had a chance to investigate.  Could be 2-3 weeks.
Did not stay on call for the remainder of the Q&A

1-16-11 Check Forex in the morning

Snippet from PD:

[*******] ****** ****** ___> ok guys I just got off the phone with a friend works with the forex, I misunderstood, he said we may not see it until 8am EST tomorrow due to AUS not dealing in IQD and they open westward I think he said. He told me to relax and check in the morning. Just what I was told, I thought it could have been now. he said to me, "CAGE that is why I told you to chill until Tuesday."

1-16-11 Iraq’s bid for the restoration of its World Trade Organization membership

Highlights/Thoughts
Click on the title of this posting to get to the article on 1DFA (membership required)

1. President Jalal Talibani will travel to Egypt on Tuesday to attend the Arab League Economic Summit.
2. Talibani will call on the Arab leaders to support Iraq's bid for the restoration of its WTO membership

Recall not long ago that the WTO said that Iraq needed to close the gap between their currency and the US dollar. That's basically an RI/RV. It may take a while for Iraq to regain their status in the WTO, but closing the gap is something they must do prior to achieving the status of membership they desire in the WTO.

1-16-11 Turkish FM in Iraq to Hail New Cabinet

Highlights/Thoughts
Click on the title of this link to see the details of the article

1. Turkish Foreign Minister is expected to meet with Maliki and congratulate him on the formation of his new cabinet

1-16-11 Jordan bank info

Highlights/Thoughts

There are 2 rumors associated with the Jordan bank information. The first is the $3.22 that was appearing on their site. The second is related to people exchanging their IQD. The first rumor is pretty much debunked. The second rumor, however, is somewhat controversial because there are some who can vouch for the exchanges and others who can vouch it never happened.

With regards to the second rumor, I myself choose to believe it is not false. Based on what I've been told about someone's first hand experience, I'm sticking with the idea that the rumors about the ME and the banks are true. This supports what I was told from a separate source a couple weeks ago about the RV starting.  Please note that I was not told that it RVd.  I was told it started, and this is before all of the news of the banks in the ME that broke out recently.  At the time, I didn't know what "started" meant, but I do now.  You must decide for yourselves which you believe, but that's where I'm at.

Given that, in another posting, I alluded to their being at least 2 thoughts around the RV and where we stand. In one camp, you have those that believe the government must be formed and the budget must be completed. Then, there's the other camp that believes the RV has begun (what we are seeing in the ME). Because I'm in the second camp, I believe that it is possible we may see the RV before the budget and the formal announcement of the government are completed. It could also turn out that the two combine and we see everything at the same time. It all remains to be seen.

I hope this helps some of you sort out your own position in regards to where we stand right now.

1-16-11 IRS Response to how this investment will be taxed

Highlights/Thoughts
Click on the title of this posting to get to the details of this posting on 1DFA

1. Someone called the IRS to discuss how this investment would be taxed. They told him they could not assist him and that he would need to email someone in the IRS
2. The response he got back was that they basically did not have the resources to investigate this technical problem and that he should consult professionals

Hmmmm...I'm not sure about you all, but that tells me that I should find the right professional(s) who are excellent at what they do (and have the reputation to prove it) and who can answer the question of how this will be treated the way I expect them to answer it....if you know what I mean.

*********************************************************************************
[OKIE_OIL_MAN] there are much info/intel today--I am trying to seperate it in order to try to make sense on how to explain it--it is all related to the global settlement having an effect on the r/v and its implications to us
[OKIE_OIL_MAN] keep your shorts on--this is going to take a while--brain is on over-load
[OKIE_OIL_MAN] there are no way to put the intel in a logical chain of progression--so i will give it in sound bites that seem random but are all inter-related and it is up to us to determine if there are a pattern to follow--i couldn't find it-the global settlement agreement while we are not suppose to know the details appears to be another brenton woods type of scenario (regarding globalization of currency's). This has been the hold-up to iraq not r/ving before now--this was finalized along with other things by biden--contrary to what we have been led to believe--the gov of iraq has not been formed completely until today (sunday in iraq) . The second reading of the budget occured today with no abstentions or dis-agreements.-the kurds only today got the agreed upon ministry positions.--part of biden's trip was to influence the gov to put restrictions on maliki because of his strong ties to shitte iranian influence.--the new ministry positions was voted on today and accepted by all of parliment. The budget was based on 73 d
[OKIE_OIL_MAN] hit button too soon--will add
[OKIE_OIL_MAN] 73 dollar oil. The budget has a projected surplus now instead of a short-fall.the recovery of the three zero currency is now in progress and is expected to be a world wide r/v very shortly--some goverments were cashing at the r/i rate waiting on the real r/v--the canadian news yesterday was not the fact of cashing in but the fact of being removed from the dinar from the ofac list--more as i remember
[OKIE_OIL_MAN] as of now there has not been an in country (iraq) r/v but is being traded as such
[********] I wouldnt worry too much if it doesnt show up on Forex today.
[OKIE_OIL_MAN] gator-exactly--as to what their plan is--it's unfolding presently--it will become evident when they go international with their currency
[OKIE_OIL_MAN] we're in un-chartered waters here and are waiting to see how they handle it from this point forward--looks very promising though--no delays no postponements--today was crucial and so will tomorrow be
[OKIE_OIL_MAN] lets just see what happens tommorow and tuesday still looks good--you have been given details that superficially looks like a postponement but it is just info that may confuse the lesser mind--the big picture internationally looks excellent--no despair here
[OKIE_OIL_MAN] i should not have confused you with details but wanted you to know how much is really involved in this multi-generational blessing
blessing7] Thanks OKIE_OIL_MAN it looks like the game is on just have to let it play through..
[OKIE_OIL_MAN] there are far greater minds than ours that has a plan--we are just trying to figure out what that plan is
[********] OKIE_OIL_MAN I bet most of which will be on a need to know basis only
[OKIE_OIL_MAN] this is an international phenomoni that has no historical presidence to base projections on--we are at the mercy of the elements so to speak
[stargate] 4. To put it another way, the World Global Settlements, including the US Dollar Refunding Project, are real. They are the instruments of change. They are part of a world wide re-distribution of wealth which includes some 20 countries revaluation [up and down] of their currency, which will become ####et-backed currency. Yes, this does include Iraq which is the cheapest of the lot and therefore had [to prevent unreasonable manipulation] to go first. The very latest information indicates that it has revalued, that it will be posted on Forex sites sometime on Sunday, and will be fully convertible in the US by Tuesday.
[OKIE_OIL_MAN] stargate--very good post---kudos
[OKIE_OIL_MAN] yes the budget has to be read third time but because of no discenion it is a moot point now--has nothing to do with the r/v moving forward
[***********] OKIE is the GOI formed? complete?
[OKIE_OIL_MAN] gator-as of today officially
[OKIE_OIL_MAN] am not answering phone--save your fingers the trouble
[OKIE_OIL_MAN] i will re-state and make perfectly clear--you all are my family and i will treat you equally--i have no secrets to share on phone with others
[OKIE_OIL_MAN] once again--read above--budget now a moot point
[OKIE_OIL_MAN] looks like maliki got his come-uppence from biden last week---kudos to biden
[********] OKIE_OIL_MAN You are a stright shooter my friend... No Wonder you shot down 5 Migs in Nam.
[OKIE_OIL_MAN] joseph--credit for 3--2 probables--gun camera mal-function
[msjeta1] OKIE_OIL_MAN could it be just superficial though? no real substance behind it in the long run?
[OKIE_OIL_MAN] well--here come the doubters again---
IncreaseCap] OKIE_OIL_MAN appreciate what you share here God Bless you
[OKIE_OIL_MAN] heres an ole expression you may not have heard in a while--we're in the cat bird seat
[OKIE_OIL_MAN] all of bidens accompolishments will probably never be brought to light--in the future history books maybe--but not now-this is still in the working out stage--
[OKIE_OIL_MAN] mikev--198 years old--I saw moses smote the rock
[OKIE_OIL_MAN] watch for hillary to go over there---
[OKIE_OIL_MAN] suebuilder--why don't you just sign off my dear
[hanna] Didn't Shabibi say that as soon as the GOI was seated they would RV?
[OKIE_OIL_MAN] hanna--thanks for remembering what so many on here has forgotten--kudos to you kid
[OKIE_OIL_MAN] remember--this global settlement is still in play--its effect-we will have to see

Highlights/Thoughts

1. Topguner got a call from a friend of his who made flights over to Iraq
2. Friend said they are getting more than .86
3. His friend didn't believe anything about the dinar last week
4. After flying over there and getting back to the US, he looaded up on dinar

1-16-11 Bank rumor

Highlights/Thoughts
1. Friend, who is a bank teller, says training is complete for RV
2. Expecting a busy late week

********************************************************************************
[*****] ****- woo hooo take it for what it is worth maybe even as rumor for now but my teller manager friend sent me an email yesterday saying teller training is complete for the RV and they are to expect a busy late week. I hope she is right, woo hoo that is awesome. (Bank Name deleted to protect them from all of us )

1-16-11 JIB Site – IQD Removed, not 3.22

Highlights/Thoughts
Click on the title of this posting to get the details of the posting on DD

1. Person contacted JIB to let them know of the discrepancies between the Arabic version and the English version
2. JIB removed all non-local region currencies and currencies not yet tradeable (i.e., IQD)
3. JIB was using a 3rd party currency converter and had no control over what rates were displayed

The person who posted this believe that this should put to rest all the rumors about people in Jordan cashing out.

1-16-11 CBI Auction results for today

Announcement No. (1814)

The latest daily currency auction was held in the Central Bank of Iraq on the 16-JAN-2011. The results were as follows:
DETAILSNOTES
Number of banks16
Auction price selling dinar / US$1170
Auction price buying dinar / US$-----
Amount sold at auction price (US$)149,188,000
Amount purchased at Auction price (US$)-----
Total offers for buying (US$)149,188,000
Total offers for selling (US$)-----


There are many who believe that when the CBI has an auction, we won't see an RV the same day.  Since there was an auction today, they would be inclined to believe there will be no RV today.

1-16-11 Saleh, al-Maliki will meet today to discuss a number of outstanding issues between Baghdad and Kurds

Highlights/Thoughts

1. Maliki is scheduled to meet with Kurdistan officials to discuss outstanding issues between Erbil and Baghdad
2. Talks will focus on the allocation of the region's share of 17% of the budget Assembly

1-16-11 House of Representatives ends of the first reading of the budget bill amid opposition Kurdish

Highlights/Thoughts
Click on the title of this posting to get the details of the article

1. First reading of the draft budget is complete, but there were objections and reservations from the Kurdish bloc
2. Objections to the financial share of the Kurdish region for export of oil
3. Kurd's also objected to the sovereign expenditure and government
4. Parliament postponed the vote on naming committees to next week due to differences between the List and the Kurds
5. The List and the Kurds want to take over the Presidency of the Legal council (this is the issue in 4 above)

2nd reading of the budget in 2 days

If you've read any of Frank26's postings, you know that he thinks the Kurds are in control of this whole thing. If they have issues, we'll need to wait until they get this sorted out before this budget comes to close. The budget is also another item that many think must be completed prior to the RV. There have been many delays related to the passing of the budget (present and past).

If you're in the camp that thinks that both the budget and the government must be fully completed, then you won't be watching for the Forex to change today. On the other hand, if you believe that there is a pre-RV going on in the ME right now, you just may want to watch for a change in Forex as it relates to the IQD.

1-16-11 Maliki’s national security adviser, will be presented to parliament next week

Highlights/Thoughts
Click on the title of this posting to get to the details of this article

1. Vote for Maliki's nominee for the Security position will this week
2. Will resolve the Security positions soon
3. Nominees for the other Security positions are competent and have experience
4. Should have consensus on the other Security positions soon

Bear in mind that those who believe the government must be fully formed are looking for this to be complete. Remember, there are 5 positions in Security that must be filled. But, there are also 7 other positions that remain unfilled. So, all 12 will need to be complete before the formation of the government is considered fully completed.

The Strategic Framework has been mentioned during Biden's visit. See this document to gain an understanding of the agreement.

1-16-11 Post from Peoples Dinar Site 1/15/11

Highlights/Thoughts
Click on the title of this posting to get to the details of this posting on DD

1. This is an opinion piece
2. Rumored situation in ME is being done to pull in the large denominations
3. In Kuwait, it was said that you must have a minimum of $1 mil Dinar to exchange. The thought is the citizens in Kuwait would turn in the large denominations.
4. They do not think the citizens in Kuwait know about the RV/RI
5. Kuwait buys back the large notes for a low price knowing full well it will be worth much more
6. Iraq wants this to be low key, but Americans are bombarding JIB. This results in the JIB bank personnel clamming up
7. In Jordan, there are stipulations of over 10 m IQD, which results in pulling in a large amount of IQD for a lower rate
8. Why start in the ME? Because Iraq gets a lot of products and services from surrounding countries. This means those countries have IQD. ME region is where the IQD has been distributed. US is exception.
9. Iraq wants as many 000 notes out of circulation, and want to do it quietly
10. If done in the US first, it would not be quiet
11. We are witnessing the implementation of the plan (Shabibi's plan to remove the zeros)
12. This is pre-RV plan. When they are done pulling notes from corporations and the wealthy, they will be left with a small amount of people to be cashing in at the RV rate
13. How long can Iraq let Americans buy IQD? Answer to this is the answer to when they will RV here.
14. It is now reality....not if, but when.

1-16-11 Scooter Chat: DDC 1/15/11

Highlights/Thoughts
Click on the title of this posting to get to the details of Scooter's chat

1. Scooter typically tries not to give rates and dates, but feels there are strong events happening that could result in an RV/RI this month
2. They may wait until suspense accounts are fully displaced and the govt banks are fully capitalized
3. Events that have occurred over last 3 months have completed in record time
4. Iraq and other agencies seem to have a sense of urgency
5. What's rumored to be happening in the ME could be currency swapping
6. The IMF doc states Jordan was to be reimbursed with full interest due to the refugees over the last 20 years
7. Cannot turn on the Forex market for one or two countries. When Forex switch is thrown, it will hit all countries
8. Less than 5 people who can throw switch. Know that IMF has approved, Iraqi people want it, and the RV will be used as a catalyst for rest of world.
9. Parliament meeting delayed to today is of interest to Scooter--especially since Kuwait's central bank is making exchanges today
10. Rates of exchange should be deployed today
11. If everything is a go today, we should see it in Forex sometime today
