The law that carries that number also carries the IQD’s new rate…A central bank tells you what it wants you to hear, on schedule, from a podium.

9-23-2026 Newshound Guru Clare Article: “Al-Zaidi was the first person Trump shook hands with… Striking scenes from the meeting of regional leaders, with the Iraqi flag prominently displayed behind the US president” Quote “…the footage showed the American president heading to shake hands with al-Zaidi first, despite the presence of a number of kings, princes, heads of state and leaders participating in the meeting.
