Paulette: IMO….. it looks like the weekend of 7/14-7/16 will be a Holiday weekend with the New Year on 7/18. Shabs said “…..after Eid, before the New Year…..” Perhaps the next target since they missed 7/1….
DoTalkToMe: Does anyone recall what happened on January 23, 2023? The governor of Iraq’s CBI was fired. The excuse we were given was that he was not moving fast enough.Seriously, that’s what we were told. He must have been a fall guy for something else. That was a half a year ago. Surely he could not have been fired for acting to slowly. If that was the standard. Everyone in iraqs government has surpassed that standard. Without exception Kuwait was able to do it with pencils and crayons.
DoTalkToMe Cont……Please tell me again how governments care about there people… For whatever reason that message is just not getting through. I think there is more afoot than were being told! I mean it in a negative context on a global scale. I am not referring to the dinky country of Iraq
Suzie: Just my own opinion, but it’s hard to understand how we can go from all the hoopla of WTO, countries pouring in to do business, contracts being signed, budget done and agreed on, AND signed by the President, entered into the Gazette as law, and I’m leaving out other things I’m sure, and fairly well assured after EID monetary change would come QUICKLY, and now they have “issues” of articles in the budget they, or someone, doesn’t like and here we go again! I know I don’t have any answers but one thing’s for sure to me is this just all sounds “fishy” to me how this is going, well, again just MY opinion and all I know is here come the “excuses” of “why”……. HAPPY 4th all!!
