September 16, 2025 Mnt Goat News Brief

Guten Tag everyone:

I have some GREAT news for you today. …. again.  

September, September, it’s all about September…….   

GIVE A GIFT TO MNT GOAT

I decided to allow everyone to give a Free-will GIFT to Mnt Goat on PayPal if you so desire. Here is the link below. Please show your appreciation for all the hard work I do.

I recommend $10-$15 dollars a month or whatever you can afford. Do you realize I write eight (8) Newsletters every month. This is like a second job to me. The only way I know that people are reading and appreciating all the FACTUAL news I bring is through their appreciation. If I do not receive equal appreciation for all the hard work I do, I will simply end the Newsletter and save myself endless hours at the computer. I am tired of this RV saga just as you are. We are now down to the wire and the end is very near. I feel this would be a lousy time to end the Newsletter but that is all up to you. As I suggested I will probably have a LIVE conference call once the reinstate happens to help clarify issues in the exchange process. It is all up to you if you want me to help.

 Let’s all try to chip in!

“So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full.”

STATUS OF THE RV

I want to first cover something today that is VERY important to everyone and the timing of the RV we all have been looking for. Remember that I told you that this reinstatement and revaluation of the Iraqi dinar was part of a much larger plan. The pieces to the plan are all but in place now. This is not decades from now. It is happening now. It is part of a financial “reset” of the US financial system and it will also eventually move downstream to other countries by the nature of it. But remember its “America First”.  The US Treasury is not going to let this opportunity pass by with Iraq. So, if you noticed I presented lots of recent news (and more today) about GOLD and how it may be used as part of the US national debt resolution plan. I also want to say that if you expect just one fowl swoop involving just one event you are wrong. It is a culmination of many events and hard work that is going to execute a very complicated plan to resolve the national debt.

Yes, a large part of the plan involves GOLD reserves and repricing of GOLD but it does not end there. The plan also calls for the end of the Federal Reserve (as we know it today), the IRS and the proof of negligence will soon be exposed. The price to be paid is to repeal the Federal Reserve Act of 1913 and cancel the current contract.

Also, we must look at the new tariffs that will help facilitate the beginning of the end to the federal income tax. It is so obvious that you would have to be an idiot not to see that the Trump administration is modeling conditions as in effect as far as 1870’s until 1913, when tariffs where a mainstream of revenue to the US government. The Federal Reserve was created and killed surplus personal income and instituted the income taxation plan. Then this of course followed shortly by the fiat dollar when all the GOLD backing was eliminated. This is why we have such debt today.  

So, I am not going to go any further into the details of the Trump plan as this Newsletter is not all about his plan. You can go research more yourself. I will warn you that no one knows the entirety of the plan, as they are not sharing it. But we can see bits and pieces of it as the months roll on. Just know there is a plan and it is in motion already, Today I only wanted to tell you the effect of it on the RV and Iraq. How will Iraq play its part in the plan?

This much we do know and we know something is moving fast to shift the Iraqi dinar into the global arena for a purpose and to reinstate its currency back to the currency trading. The dinar will be repegged to a basket along with other currencies, each supporting the other. We can already see the new Trump foreign policy with Iraq and to bring huge investment opportunities to Iraq. Remember, however, there must be money enough for both nations or the US will not get involved. Remember we were skeptical of what the new plan might be but now we know. I presented many articles on this topic in my couple Newsletters. Please refresh your memory in the Archives.

Just remember that the dinar now already trades on the ISX which is the Iraqi Securities Exchange. A link was placed even on FOREX back to the ISX years ago. This made it easier for future investors in the dinar to follow IQD trends. However, it is not on the global exchanges and certainly not at the rate we are waiting to see. The official CBI rate of 1320 is simply not going to help in the Trump reset of the national US debt, get it?

I also need to dispel the notion that the US Treasury has trillions of IQD in its reserves and plan to exchange it all to pay off the national debt. If you think about this notion you quicky realize just how stupid of an intel guru idiot stuff this notion is. These stupid intel gurus told you the same story about the Kuwait dinar and that too was a lie. It was not the revaluation of the Kuwaiti dinar that did anything to the national debt. The FACT is the national budget for a couple quarters was able to go deficit free (balanced budget) due to payments made to the US for the US military work done to kick Iraq out of Kuwait. G. W. Bush administration also received a huge payment but squandered it giving each US citizen a small check. This was obviously done to get reelected and at the onset of the second term election period. You have to be an idiot not to see it. So, please once again I beg of you to let these lies about the Kuwaiti dinar go. Let’s stick to the truth and not use this as our basis at to what is about to happen in Iraq.

Where are all these trillions going to come from? There is more than a trillion alone needed to exchange all dinar investment holders outside of anything the US government does, so if you also add in the trillions for the repayment of the national debt there are crazy numbers. This is why the US Treasury will initially issue electronic payments of fiat currency to us on our exchange, then later broker oil for the next 30+ years from Iraq as a huge discount. But how can the US even afford to do this? Even electronic payments will have to be secured by something. Can the US Treasury issue yet more Treasury bonds or will oil credits be acceptable to cover this exchange money?

Many of you also believe that the national debt is borrowed money like a loan taken from a bank (the Federal Reserve). This is absolutely NOT truth. The US Treasury actually issues US Treasury Notes. Foreign countries have to purchase these notes. Then the US government has to pay interest on them over time. This is how they finance the majority of the national debt. So now over $37 trillion of these I.O.U.s are issued and interest each month is due to a tune of about $1 trillion dollars. If the US does not have this interest payments even, it issues yet more Treasury notes to pay for it. You can easily see just how dangerous all this is. Yes, that is just the interest on the notes. The principle is never touched.

So, for the US government to eliminate the national debt quickly (the principle) they would have to buy back or recall these US Treasury notes, which they can do but that comes with a heavy cost too. This is where the Iraqi dinar revaluation comes into play. There are multiple avenues that will be used to offset the debt. The dinar is just one of them and could be a chunk but there is more. Then there is GOLD and God keeps telling his prophets about how he will use GOLD. Are you paying attention?

God, in his prophetic word years ago, told us to look to California for GOLD. Today, it is said, we have discovered only 20% of the gold in California. So, think about what financial experts like Jim Rickards tells us. He says that not all the Gold in the US reserves will most likely be revalued and that if just 40% of it was it could wipe out the debt and could bring GOLD to $25,000 an ounce. But what if massive amounts of new GOLD suddenly came into the US reserves? What impact would this have on the process? What if God does give us these three new sources of energy as he said he would, and the US takes the lead in rolling them out to the world. This revenue stream could rival the AI, tariffs and any taxation incomes.

I am trying to tell everyone that we need to relax and let this all play out and that there is much, much more to this that meets your eyes. If you are not connecting to the prophecies than you are walking blinded by ignorance and so this hurts your vision of what is going to happen, or at the least gives options of what may possibility happen.  

The Coming Project to Delete the Zeros

The following are two articles from the past for April 2013 and the in 2024. I wanted to bring you this article for many reasons. One reason is to demonstrate that even after the corruption at the CBI that preceding December, the necessity to move ahead with the project to delete the zeros was still VERY real and important and it needed to move ahead.  ____________________________

Parliamentary Finance: Central Bank starts during the current year measures the deletion of zeros from currency
13 April 2013
Baghdad.

Sabah said parliamentary Finance Committee, the central bank, according to correspondences official start of this year procedures deleting three zeros from the local currency, saying that it would lead to the development of cash transactions and economic international.

A member of the Finance Committee Abdul Hussein al-Yasiri Center Brief for the Iraqi Media Network (IMN) It “According Almkhtabat official with the central bank, it is supposed to start this year Balastaadadt necessary to delete three zeros from the local currency.”

and noted that “the local currency will reduce from four billion units to one billion units which will make there Anciabh in the process of the transfer of currency.”

and between Yasiri that “the Finance Committee supports changes to the local currency because of the importance of the country’s economic.”

The central bank says that the deletion of zeros comes within the plan for the development of monetary policy and the reform of currency management.

and was a member of the Finance Committee parliamentary Haitham al-Jubouri, had said in an earlier statement to him that “replacement currency and delete Ocefarha will features the best and the biggest decrease of the volume of inflation and revive the dinar due to lack of demand for the dollar, which comes positive aspects significant to the economy of the country, and replaced revive economy Alibd but needs political environment and economic environment for the implementation of the project without facing any obstacles lead to the deterioration of the currency Iraqi “.

was the Iraqi Central Bank has pointed out last August that plans to delete the zeros from the Iraqi dinar to facilitate financial transactions made ​​through cash in most cases. Among the difficulties faced by Iraq if they are to foot the deletion of zeros from the dinar is withdrawn about 30 trillion dinars in circulation in the Iraqi market, then discarded and replaced with a new currency.

AN IMMINENT PROCESS TO CHANGE THE SKIN OF THE IRAQI DINAR.. REMOVING ZEROS WILL REVEAL THE EXTENT OF CURRENCY MANIPULATION

September 24, 2024

(Oh articles about the project in September again….just saying…)

Government advisor: It must be preceded by political and economic stability.

There has been talk once again about the possibility of removing zeros from the local currency, as the government is studying a bold option of changing the Iraqi dinar to its skin. Although this step carries promises of simplifying financial transactions, it raises concerns about its effects on the economy and citizens, especially in light of the inflation that the markets have been witnessing for a long time .

During the current month, the Governor of the Central Bank of Iraq, Ali Mohsen Al-Alaq, revealed new information regarding the project to delete zeros in Iraq, indicating that “the project is undergoing continuous review and study, taking into consideration the existence of an issued currency volume that has exceeded 100 trillion dinars, after it was 6 trillion in 2004 “.

Many countries take the step of removing zeros from their currency to revalue their national currency and facilitate financial transactions by removing a certain number of zeros from the nominal value of the currency, making it appear less inflationary and more stable .

60  countries experience

“Removing zeros from the local currency is a process that has taken place in more than 60 countries over the past years,” said Mazhar Mohammed Saleh, the Prime Minister’s financial advisor. “This step comes after economic inflation occurs in countries, and therefore they resort to deleting zeros in order to keep up with prices in the markets,” he explained. 

In an interview with Al-Jabal, Saleh continued, saying, “The abundance of zeros has doubled the monetary value of the currency now,” adding, “Political and economic stability must be achieved before resorting to deleting zeros.”

What else is in the current news?

The rest of the news today is all also very good. We’ve been concerned about certain mandated issues being resolved prior to December, if this reinstatement is going to happen in the targeted timeframe of January 2026. In today’s news they are giving us updates on the resolution or status of many of these issues.

😊If you recall the CBI is having problems with the smaller, privately owned banks in Iraq. The Central Bank of Iraq has a ‘last chance’ to reform its banking system by implementing the reform plan and imposing its will on those obstructing it. This could mean the liquidation of dozens, if not even a hundred plus of banks in Iraq. Please refer to the article titled “PRESENTED BY AN AMERICAN COMPANY: EXPERT: POWERFUL PARTIES ARE PRESSURING THE CENTRAL BANK TO THWART THE REFORM PLAN.” I believe this is an important objective the US has mandated on Iraq prior to the Project to Delete the Zeros. Remember this is one of the five items we talked about in previous Newsletters. Is it important? Yes, and it is on the top of the list.

😊 Again it’s all about location! Location, location and location….lol..lol.. Let’s take a peak at the article titled “IRAQ MOVES TO EXPLOIT ITS GEOGRAPHICAL LOCATION IN THE DIGITAL WORLD TO CONNECT THREE CONTINENTS”

The Iraqi Ministry of Communications unveiled new plans on Saturday to leverage Iraq’s unique geographic location, making it a key link between Southeast Asia and Europe via the Indian Ocean, the Arabian Sea, and the Gulf.  , “Iraq has a strategic location that allows for the efficient reception and transmission of digital capacities. Currently, there are submarine cables in service, such as FALCON and GBI, that transmit data from Southeast Asian countries and India to Europe. These existing projects are a first step towards investing in the Iraqi corridor for global communications services, and they represent the foundation upon which larger projects currently under implementation are being built.”

😊 Next I want to bring your attention to the CBI efforts for Iraq to join the Bank for International Settlements in Switzerland in the article titled “THE GOVERNOR OF THE CENTRAL BANK OF IRAQ MEETS WITH THE GOVERNOR OF THE BANK OF ENGLAND.” WOW! WOW! WOW! So, what does this all mean for our RV?  

His Excellency the Governor of the Central Bank of Iraq, Mr. Ali Mohsen Al-Allaq, met with the Governor of the Bank of England, Mr. Andrew Bailey, at the Bank’s headquarters in London. It says that Iraq wants to benefit from the Bank of England’s experience in modernizing its paper currency and its studies on digital currencies. But the meeting was much more important than for these objectives. So, why in hell would Iraq want to join the Bank of International Settlements (BIS) anyway? Maybe it’s planning to reconnect and do business in the international banking arena and do it soon? There is also a matter of recovering these stolen funds we previously read about and the BIS can certainly help too. Yes, in one of last articles they talked about $500 billion dollars to recover. Imagine how that could bolster the CBI reserves and put them in a solid standing for conducting the project to delete the zeros. Al-Alaq is also “buttering up” to the governor of the bank of England to get their support for this transition of working with the bank of England in the global arena.  

😊This next article is so very important and should not be overlooked. It should be read in the correct context as it reviews what Dr Shabibi told us in a news conference in 2015. Dr Shabibi told Iraq, in regard to the pasted-up opportunity to RV, that when opportunity knocks answer the call and how Iraq passed up an “unprecedented opportunity” in 2012-2013 to revalue and reinstate the dinar. So here we have this same kind of language by Zabari today in this recent article titled “IRAQ HAS GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY TO RISE AND PROGRESS, SAYS FORMER FOREIGN MINISTER”. Hoshyar Zebari cites relative calm encouraging more investment, as well as positive change across the region. Iraq has a golden opportunity to “stand on its feet and move forward”, former deputy prime minister and foreign minister Hoshyar Zebari has told The National, urging the country to seize the moment to consolidate its stability. Now knowing what this article says and then combining it with what we already know about this targeting of January 2026 for a reinstatement it all adds up. I know why Zebari is making these comments and making them now. He was also around back then in 2012-2013 and witnessed the corruption and the opportunity that was blown. The clock is ticking and there is still work to be done. Can Iraq do it all if they want the US backing of the reinstatement process?

There are many more articles in the Articles Section of today’s news. I want to bring one more to you that could also affect the RV timing. It is the elections.

The five mandates by the US for Iraq: I though I would give everyone an update on these issues.

• Clean up the Private Banks: CBI just announced the new Banking Reform Plan by American company (OW) is geared at the 100+ smaller private banks in Iraq.

• Expulsion of the PMF in Iraq: A draft law that would have further institutionalized the Popular Mobilization Forces’ has been put on hold, for now. There is no talk of complete expulsion back to Iran but just disarming of the militia.

• Oil and Gas Law or HCL: Billions are lost annually as issues plague Baghdad vs Kurdistan. In spite of a drop in oil prices and thus revenues, the last thing Iraq needed was a cut in oil export. There is still no final target in sight for this law anytime soon. As soon as it seems optimistic, another oil related issue arises.

• Parallel vs Official CBI rate of the dollar: Today there are some steady figures on the gap at only about 10-20 points variance from the official rate, which the CBI says is acceptable. This is pennies. But what does the IMF and the US Treasury want? That is what is important. So far, no pullback on the slight rise in the dollar. This one could be solved and the news media needs to caught up.

• Collection of the 80% of currency outside the banking system: (I think it more like 15% or 15 trillion dinars only) Citizens of Iraq need to trust the banks and make deposits. Hope is that the Banking Reform Plan will resolve this issue.

😊 Please take a peak at the article titled “IRAQ’S 2025 ELECTION: A RECALIBRATION OF POWER, NOT A RUPTURE OF THE STATUS QUO”.

We are told the legislative elections will be held on the scheduled date, and we are close to implementing Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani’s directives and supporting him in securing a second term. Iraqis are preparing to vote on November 11, 2025, in a parliamentary election shaping up as one of the country’s most consequential since the 2003 US-led invasion, according to War in Rocks. Iraqis will head to the polls — for the seventh time since the U.S.-led invasion in 2003 — to elect a new 329-seat parliament from among a crowded field of 37 alliances, 38 parties, and nearly 80 candidates running as independents

Against this election backdrop, I expect Al-Sudani will get a second term and the election cycle will go much more smooth than the last one. But remember there is always the asshole Nori al-Maliki who still thinks that somehow he can finagle another term, even with the two term limit in place and his outrageous record of corruption during his two terms in office. It would be like re-electing Joe and Kamala again…lol..lol… How sad that would be that the Iraqi people could ever be so stupid.

SILVER: So, what’s up with silver?

I know I talk a lot lately about GOLD but it’s really SILVER I am concerned about. But that’s just me.

In closing my commentary today, I want to bring out something that most may be overlooking. Remember, however I am not giving investment advice of any kind, just giving you my observations. First, let’s look at the prophecies when they talk and talk over the last decade about GOLD. There is going to be a huge vain of GOLD found in California. It is not “if” but “when”. This will solidify, in part, the remedy to end the US national debt. Next it is also so obvious that GOLD and other precious metals are being suppressed much like the Iraqi dinar. I will not get into why they are doing this but to emphasize it will eventually work in your favor if you are prepared. GOLD is ranging at $3,000 plus an ounce and that is very expensive for a weekend investor. Most of us small investors don’t have that kind of money to invest to make any real big money. But with silver it is different. It is floating at around low $40s an ounce. VERY affordable in comparison to GOLD.

You see silver historically in the past spots at about 30% of GOLD and so if GOLD rises so should silver. Has it risen accordingly? No, it should follow at about $900 an ounce now, 30% of $3,000. Is it?

This alone tells us something is weird. it is not a free market for these metals and someone is controlling it. This happened ever since the US got fully off the GOLD standard in the early 1970’s. Next I need to add that sometimes, as unexperienced investors, we go off half-cocked with intentions concentrating on a vehicle for investment and neglect other opportunities right in front of our faces. This is human nature.

So, this leads me to bring it to your attention that maybe SILVER could be a very good investment in the near future. Since a couple years ago it had already doubled. It is cheaper to buy and can bring high returns. It is like a horse at the gates just waiting to come out fast. We are almost there, and a sudden enormous rise, I believe, will come as part of the financial reset we have been waiting for. So, you see there are much more opportunities to consider than just the Iraqi dinar or other currencies. I know, I know that all these intel gurus push these other currencies but don’t forget there are also other opportunities, cheap opportunities that can also bring some great returns.

Many of these precious metal brokers guarantee that they will always buy back your metals at current spot.  

Q & A

Question: clayrich6a2b498e66

Hello MG, wondering if you have seen and can comment on this article, Exchange dilemma
From Kadhimi’s devaluation to Al-Sudani’s platform: The Iraqi dinar’s journey through five turbulent years.

Answer: Mnt Goat

Guten Tag Clayrich, how are you today? I am always more than happy to help clarify articles. So let me address this one and I also have to relate it to another one from today’s news. It’s all connected.

My dear we must look at the dates they reference in this article. In the year 2020 we had Covid and so oil use declined sharply as industry shut down thus oil prices also plummeted downwards. The CBI had to devalue the dinar from the official exchange rate from 1,180 to 1,450 or inflation would have gotten out of hand. The CBI used the reserves to pay salaries, gas and electricity from Iran, just to survive. The reserves went from 90 billion down to mid 40’s. Of course, the dinar was going to be revalued afterwards when the crisis was over and oil exports began again, the CBI revalued to 1320 but not the 1180. Why? This is why I keep saying the dinar is way undervalued today. But the dilemma is the parallel market as to why the CBI does not want to go back to 1180 or lower yet until they can lick the issues with the black-market sales of the dollar. I believe by the time all is said and done the CBI will go directly to around the 1180ish mark and then to just over a dollar suddenly afterwards (in -country).

I also want to add that I sincerely and whole-heartedly believe that the CBI intended to conduct the Project to Delete the Zeros that following fall time period in 2020 and reinstate in January 2021 but Covid crisis stopped it. With reserves down too low it was impossible to go forward. Following this period the Biden administration did nothing to provide further help to Iraq. Another wasted four years. So, this article is taking the reader through the five years since 2020 to 2025 and the status of the dinar over this period. This is also why the former finance cabinet member Zabari tells us today in the news article that Iraq should not give up another opportunity of stability in Iraq to move ahead with the Project to Delete the Zeros. Essentially, he is saying DO IT NOW! Since there always seems to be yet another crisis looming. I hope this helps.

Folks, I want everyone to understand that it not like the CBI does not want to replace the currency to the lower denominations but that it can’t until conditions are right. They have told us these conditions. They are ripe right now! My contact told me they are going to try this fall of 2025 again. Like a piece of fruit on the vine if you don’t pick it, then it will spoil, and you will have to wait until next year again to pick it and enjoy it. This is all so true with the RV saga for Iraq. I have to add that it is like God holds this up until He is ready for it. I mean ready for the financial reset and waited for Trump’s second term to do it all.

PRAYING WITH SINCERITY

Many may ask why their prayers are not being answered. Our new Shepard in Rome Pope Leo XIV has given us some direction.

You can purchase a nice pair of Rosary Beads here to pray:

                                         

These prophecies are more important now more than ever. They give us the strength, perseverance and hope that a better time is coming and that God’s Hand is at work behind the scenes. If you just take a second even to look around you at these past three election cycles, how can you deny that God is at work? Are you sleeping or what?

It is amazing and there is no other way that these events could have happened the way they turned out. But there is more to come, much, much more, I assure you! Now that God has his biblical David re-elected, we need to pay attention to what He does next.

God told us it will be an “hypnotic November” and turbulent until June 2025 and so, isn’t it? June has been amazing too as promised. Was He lying to us? Here comes the indictments.

NOTE: These prophecies just keep getting better and better, giving us HOPE of a bright future. But the real reason why I listen to them is that we can actually see what God says He will do is taking place right in front of our noses. It is a confirmation to me that God is real and is still with us forever just as in biblical times.

Prophetic Words from prophet: Hank Kunneman

“President Trump, America & The Golden Age”

You can start watching the video at the 15:48 mark.  Please pay VERY close attention to what is said in both physical terms and spiritual terms.

We have talked about GOLD many times already in my blog. So, here is yet another one. You think it may be important? California is said to still have undiscovered gold amounting to about 80% of what they really have in the ground (per prophetic word).

How will the U.S. get back to the GOLD standard? This will mean getting off the dollar as the global media of exchange, or will it?

You may want to take a look at this recent news and how it all fits in to the prophecies. Could this really happen?

HERE’S HOW TO MAKE YOUR ASSETS INVISIBLE FROM CREDITORS

THE PROPHESIZED BIBLICAL ESTHER

Could this be Charlie Kirk’s wife Erika?  Is it time?   Please watch and listen carefully to the Kim Clement Prophetic Word given in 2011 on this coming event of the Esther woman. Is Erika the healer, the uniter, the Esther that God promised us? Let’s see and find out.  

THE WORLD MORNS THE DEATH OF CHARLIE KIRK

Millions took to the streets of the US and London in the UK to morn. I have to tell you that this video was beyond sad. I have seen some bad stuff while in Iraq during the war but this is way beyond evil what they did to assassinate him. I also want to add that I believe that Tyler Robinson DID NOT pull the trigger and was set up by the CIA as their patsy. How much money did they pay him? The evidence was laid out just too perfectly to apprehend him. Will we ever know the identity of the true assassin?

WHO WILL ‘CARRY THE TORCH’ FOR CHARLIE KIRK

As I write this Newsletter today tears roll down my face as I got off the phone with my CBI contact only to hear about the Charlie Kirk assassination. As many may already know that on Wednesday, Charlie Kirk (31) was assassinated at a Utah college campus. I can not say enough on how sad this is and how extreme the extreme will go. This is how bad they wanted to shut us up. I have to say this is the devil himself at work again. Charlie and his wife Erika were blessed with two healthy and beautiful children together and just recently too. There is no justification for this barbaric murder.

We must all PRAY for him as he enters the gates of heaven. He will be missed!

Folks, now you know why Mnt Goat stays in the shadows and remains distant. I too have feared for my family. Each Newsletter I put myself in jeopardy be telling the TRUTH and disbanding the lies being told. But remember my TRUTH is not really my TRUTH but yours too. My blog is their words not mine. People like Charlie Kirk try to make a difference and are part of the solution rather than the problem. Will you join us? Will you be the next “Charlie Kirk” to pick up the baton and continue where he left off?

.

WHO’s REALLY INSIGHTING PEOPLE TO COMMIT THIS VIOLENCE?

Again, someone sent these politicians a script to follow to get on the news in front of the cameras. Yes, it was time to call Trump a “fascist”.

My point is not so much that they called Trump a fascist, as we all know he is not and we don’t buy their stupid rhetoric. Instead, I just wanted to bring out how someone behind the scenes is telling them what to say and when to say it. Is it coincidental that all get on the band wagon at the same time and call him the same nasty words. Now after their wishes of violence have come true with the two assassination attempts on Trumps life and not the actual killing of Charlie Kirk, we must take a step back and ask who is really insighted the violence and how do we stop this?

I COULD NOT HAVE SAID IT ANY BETTER….

Katie Hopkins speaks out in London 2025 on regaining our freedoms.  

RASHIDA TLAIB’S BOMBSHELL MOVEMENT TO RADICALIZE PEACEFUL MUSLIMS IN THE US.

Rashida Tlaib represents Michigan’s 12th congressional district. She has been serving in this district since 2023, following her previous representation of Michigan’s 13th congressional district from 2019 to 2022. These are both highly Muslim occupied districts in the US.

Congressional seats should not to be used for foreign activists’ movements, that is the purpose of this explanation today. This is not considered serving the people of the district to which voted them. This is the purpose of being a representative in Congress. Certainly, Palestine citizens in Gaza did not vote her in to Congress to work for them. Is she supporting US interests or of her own based on her nationality or religious affiliation?

Folks this is the danger of putting these foreign immigrants into our political system. They just don’t get it. Do they really understand why they are there? Do they get it?

In this video, I also like the concise, clear and truthful explanation that Mark Levin gives of the history of the Gaza strip and how the Palestinians gave it away to the Hamas terrorists group to control. Again I ask if Tlaib is so concerned about the Palestinians they why doesn’t she try to help them understand what really happened for the underlying basis of how Hamas gained a foothold in Gaza in the first place. Yes, let’s address the negligence of the Palestinian people themselves and stop putting all the blame on Isael. Does Tlaib talk about this? Does she responsibly try to help these Muslims in her district truly understand the situation? The answer is NO.

Does she tell of the honest background of the Palestinian people in the area that self-inflicted pain what is now the consequences of their own past actions and hatred for Israel and the Jews? Tlaib wants to continue this ridiculous twist of facts.

If you listen carefully to Tlaib in this video you can also hear her embody Marxists principles and a hatred of the US. Yes, she is layering on yet another crisis we have to deal with later. Remember these Marxists need crisis after crisis to get into power.

We should also wake up to what is happening in Anoka and Ramsey counties of Minnesota as in Dearborn and Detroit Michigan districts with these very large populations of Muslims. They do not understand the culture of the west and all it takes is someone like Tlaib or Omar to stir the pot. These cities are becoming a very large pool of anti-American Muslim communities. These kind of speeches are stirring up trouble in the cities and not helping the situation. How can we not think that these so-called “peaceful” Muslims are not being slowly radicalized by her speeches. She is walking on thin ice. Is she really helping or hurting the Muslim population to disseminate into the western culture? Again, these radical extreme liberal politicians becomes part of the problem and not the solution. The US government must address these Muslim cities now or later. We must get activism out of politics.

It is much easier to address them now along with those politicians stirring them up before this gets out of hand.

We also witnessed immigration policies under the Obama administration that allowed seemly harmless see 60,000+ immigrants, mostly Syrian Muslim refugees, into the US in the aftermath of the ISIS crisis. Who started ISIS? That is saved for another conversation and another day.

This is where they settled them, in towns in Minnesota. Remember that the millions of refugees that flowed in the US under Biden also as designated areas to settle in the US. They had pre-determined tags telling them where to go. Most, when asked, didn’t know where in hell these town were even. So they did not decide. Who did then?

There was already a small community of Muslims located in Minnesota there at the time, how convenient that this should happen. later this allowed Ilhan Omar, a Muslim immigrant from Somali, to gain popularity and represent Minnesota’s 5th congressional district, which includes the city of Minneapolis and parts of Anoka and Ramsey counties. Of course, immigrants coming from a foreign country will decide to vote for someone of their same religion, language and customs.

How can any other American candidate compete with this? One might think that on the surface this would not be so bad since she could first-hand sympathize with the needs of the people in her district being of like religion and culture. But this is not what she is using her position for. Instead, Ilhan Omar, like Rashida Tlaib are using their positions of trust in congress to continue their activist’s movement for Samalia and Palestine, which are all geared as Muslim oriented. In fact, Omar openly, like Tlaib, even gave speeches declaring her full intentions. So Mnt Goat is not making this stuff up. This is getting really scary.

These Muslim districts, if you Wikipedia them, you will find it stated they are known for their diversity, with a significant immigrant population, and Omar’s district is one of the most Democratic districts in the Upper Midwest. Ilhan Omar is notable for being the first Somali-American and the first woman of color to serve in the U.S. House of Representatives. Note how they use racism too to emphasize diversity. This was all in line with the (diversity, equity and inclusion) DEI program. Is this how the democrat party is using the immigration scheme to swing elections? Is this another reason for the push for DEI? So this scheme has been in motion long before the mass immigration policy of Joe Biden. Biden just put it on warp speed.

I am even talking about all this today because we have to always dig deeper to see what is really going on beyond what we witness on the surface. Sure we are all fed up with what we have seen from “the squad”. By what’s it really all about? These very large immigration movements of Muslims is not just happening folks. It is intentional and well planned out. This is how they are seeding these Muslim politicians into our political system. This is part of a much bigger plan of the United Nations under their Agenda 2021, 2030 and 2050 plans. Part of this plan is about “homogenizing” the world’s population. This is much like the desegregation plan in the US and we can see the disastrous effects of it. But now after years of experiencing the effects of the UN immigration plan we feel the negative impact and so maybe its time to wake up and pull out of these UN plans and simply stop implementing them?

Now don’t get me wrong. I am certainly NOT a Muslim hater. We would not be so alarmed if these politicians would just do their job and stop the activism movements in their districts using the office of trust as a US representative as their platform to do it. We have witnessed the nonsense already caused by this politicians. We don’t need activism in Congress we need real support for the issues facing these towns not some foreign country, that happened to be where they came from.  

WHY IS THE WEST FIGHTING JIHADIST FOR THE MUSLIMS. THIS NEEDS TO FIGHT FOR THEMSELVES, (if they are truly peaceful Muslims and mean what they say).

What does jihad mean?

The word “jihad” is widely used, though often inaccurately, by Western politicians and media. In Arabic, the word means “effort” or “struggle”. In Islam, it could be an individual’s internal struggle against baser instincts, the struggle to build a good Muslim society, or a war for the faith against unbelievers.

The term “jihadist” has been used by Western academics since the 1990s, and more widely since the 11 September 2001 attacks, as a way to distinguish between violent and non-violent Sunni Islamists. Islamists aim to reorder government and society in accordance with Islamic law, or Sharia. Jihadists see violent struggle as necessary to eradicate obstacles to restoring God’s rule on Earth and defending the Muslim community, or umma, against infidels and apostates,

This is not an easy topic for most peaceful, loving Muslims to talk about and you will learn why today. I will probably even be called an Islamophobic for my commentary on this subject matter as that is usually their denial and scape goat. But do you know what? Someone finally has to tell the TRUTH. I am a bit sick and tired of skating around the FACTS in the hope we don’t “offend” anyone. Do these radical Muslims offend us when they bomb our subways or drive planes into our buildings killing thousands?

This is a necessary topic that needs to be addressed. Like in WW2 we were afraid to confront the real enemy directly and instead pacified them and then tried to ignore them, hoping they would go away. But they don’t go away, they never do. What did they do in return? They just kept on going on their path of conquest and destruction. They only way we eventually stopped the enemy then was to meet violence with violence. Even the bible tells us to put down our enemies. But this tricky too and I will show you why.

Luke 10:19 

Behold, I have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall hurt you.

We can name hundreds of passages in the bible related to God giving us permission to put down our enemies. But there will always be those who then will play the devil’s advocate and will ask who defines your enemy? They will defend the Muslim extremist because they have determined the west is their enemy or anyone who is not a faithful Muslim. They will try to use the bible and twist its meaning then compare it to what the Qur’an says. So, you see there is an enormous difference here. In the Christian biblical sense, we define our enemy by anyone who goes to harm peaceful, loving people, especially those unarmed innocent children and civilians. Also, anyone who brings great pain and suffering to us. God is really telling us to defend rather than offend (offensive) and seek out. We do not go out and seek destruction and suffering for the sake of conversion. As Christians we seek to help people truly understand the teachings of this great man Jesus, whether you believe in him as God or not, his teachings are still amazing. But the God part usually comes later as the graces some from your initial learning. Jihadism says go to seek out the killing, raping, beheading, etc., of anyone who does not believe as you do and do it in the name of their God as if this is justified? This is their way of converting to Muslim. But in reality let’s face it, it is only a pretext of a religion and a scam to get more and more gullible people to follow their extreme ideology and fight in their armies. They loot and pillage. This is their real objective- no morals or values.

Oh but its always about a “struggle” isn’t it? They convince people to follow them this way. People are very gullible and don’t learn the lessons they need to from history. Instead of just working hard and advancing themselves to a position of governance, where they can make a difference, they have to instead take to the streets in violence. Like the Jihadist and Marxists, they do the same and promise utopia afterwards, but it never happens. Extreme socialism simply does not work and it has been proven over and over again, yet they still promise equality, except of course at the upper top ranks of the leaders that deserve to live like kings on the backs of the lower class. Again, gullible people go along with it and are brainwashed in believing their leaders actually deserve such wealth and luxury as they live as peasants. This is always the deception.   

With these radical extreme Jihadist their utopia, they say will come later in heaven. Heaven will be their reword. Really? So, it is hard to ever justify to anyone that the means really does justify the end because the end only occurs when you die and so you are dead and who cares? How do you know that God is truly going to reward you for all the pain and suffering you did while on the earth? The “end” is never seen on this earth and can never be proven or disproven. Get it? Why are people so gullible? I assure you these Jihadist will go straight to HELL when they die. There is no heaven for them as heaven is reserved for loving and peaceful people. Jesus even told us that he is the way to the Father (meaning Father in heaven). His ways are his teachings while on the earth. Go read the New Testament. The word “testament” itself means a tangible proof or tribute, an expression of conviction.

Jihadist do not follow the teachings of Jesus and I don’t care what bullshit they try to lay on you about their extreme form of Muslim Jihadism.

Yes, there is an enormous difference between the Christians/Jews versus the extremist Muslims and even common sense will dictate the right from the wrong. We don’t need someone to dictate to us as our hearts will always tell us the TRUTH too. We just need to sit and listen to it. If you can’t see it then I can’t help you, as you are too far gone already down that dark hole. Why do you think that Jesus came to the earth? Was it in part to teach us this difference between right and wrong as society was going wrong at that time? Maybe He truly was teaching us how to save souls so all can go to heaven when they die. Please go study what the government was like during the time of Jesus.

Remember that the majority of the Muslim population are not violent. But I have to ask why we, as non-Muslims must take the blunt of fighting their battle for them. This is actually a battle between the Jihadist and the peaceful Muslims is it not? They that must take their place in the ranks of soldiers and fight this battle. This is at the heart of the problem. This confrontation between the two is NOT taking place.

This battle must be fought by fellow Muslims and not by the west as the peaceful Muslims must stand up to their own religion, if in fact it is even a truly peaceful religion. They must defend their peaceful piece of their religion and take it back. Do they ever wonder why the growing population in the west is hating all Muslims? Gee whiz could it be the violence from the Jihadist? Could it be we are fighting their battle for them and losing our (non-Muslim) sons and daughters?

Could it also be they stand themselves out with their clothing like with the hijab, niqab and even worst the burka? There is also the al-amira, shayla, khimar, or chador which are also less deceptive. They must think about these things but refuse to change.

It’s all about customs and we have to remember we don’t wear this clothing in the west because the weather is different here. This form of clothing were adopted as part of the religion but they have their true origins due to the protection from the hot sun in the middle east. Men also wear similar headdress as in Saudi. Yes, the strong sun again. They are used to hiding the woman’s beauty. This is also why, if you noticed that Islam woman seem to pound on the makeup and do look nice as a result as they must accentuate their faces, as this is all you can see. This to me is a sign they really want their freedom and are held back. It must be so hard seeing women from the west show off so much flesh, yet be prohibited themselves. This is of course only a control mechanism. Personally, I am not in favor of how many woman dress in the west, as they show off too much and leave nothing personal between the man and intimacy. This is a touchy subject to me. But this is all an important part of assimilation into a foreign population. Besides with the already bad reputation of the Jihadist one would think they would not want to stand out so much. Sometime I feel they truly believe they are special because they are Muslim with the attitudes I experienced when they stay at our gasthaus. Do they really think the western way of life is so decadent? Then why come here, instead stay in the middle east. We are not going to change to suit you!

Peaceful Muslims need to stop and think about lots of concepts. Jihadist amount to only a small share of the Muslim population and yet their acts of violence ruin it for all Muslims. It is said that Jihadist are less than 15% of the Muslim population. My point is maybe its time for these so-called peaceful Muslims to step up and denounce the jihadist more opening and condemn the violent acts of terrorism. Instead, as we see in Palestine these seeming “peaceful” Muslims support the terrorist Hamas terrorist and condemn Israeli acts to defend themselves against the Jihadist. Don’t they even realize that Israel is really fighting their war for them? Maybe this is part of the problem, as I am trying to tell you. Peaceful Muslims must call out their fellow jihadist Muslims and denounce their violence. When the day comes when they sincerely do this, then I will accept them openly into my community and not before.    

I recommend you visit this site to get more information on jihadism. We must educate ourselves on this existential threat to our societies.

THE COLLAPSE OF EUROPE’S SOCIALIST EXPERIMENT

TRANSGENDERism : A LONG-STANDING ANCIENT SATANIC ACULT or JUST A TRENDING FAD?

This may shock many of you today. Remember that I told you that they are after our kids, more importantly the ability to reproduce. If you can’t reproduce, God can’t then send souls here to this physical world anymore. Get it? His creation dwindles. Also not included in this presentation is the humanoid movement that will soon hit the younger generation as did cell phones. It is coming and so get ready. There is going to be a BIG push for brain implants and justified as to compete with the AI robots.  Another lie to them that this will make them brilliant, but it will only control people as who is to say they can’t send subliminal messages to your brain. The next movement is total humanoid robotics, which we all know cannot reproduce and do not have Godly souls. Yes, they are very cunning and are taking one step at a time.

This gets only worst and worst as the evidence is exposed of their futuristic plans for humans. There are just too many coincidences in what Candice Ownes brings out from her investigation today of this transgender cult. Opps…. I said it, it is not just a way of life, freedom and something new, but a trans cult that goes way back to ancient times. We are now seeing a resurgence of it in modern times.

Didn’t it ever occur to you how bizarre all this transgender stuff is? How it suddenly came out of nowhere and was actually supported by the governments in the name of choice and freedom? What about the DEI program. Billions was spent on this for what…to ruin our culture and society? We all need to take a step back and see just how satanic and evil this movement is.

The final ritual for transgender men to join the cult, is to cut off their genitals. This is not knew to us. We hear this all the time as trans men should take the next step if they truly want to be woman-like. Of course, again no more babies. Get it? Can you see it? Are you seeing what has been sold to the younger generations of kids and what is happening here. Please everyone should watch this presentation by Candice as she uncovers some hidden truths. Yes, this is about exposing Briggette Macron and her transgender decision to join the cult but much, much more.

I feel God is leading Candice to something BIG.

Most trans don’t even have a clue to connect from the past of what they are actually doing. There are very satanic elements involved here influencing their thinking. They do it in the name of freedom and choice but it turns out to be anything but that. They are being lied too. They are selling their souls to the devil and here is proof. It is a slow process and I can see the brainwashing on Tic Toc and other internet sites.

I hope this give all my readers a platform when confronted people with the issue of transgenderism, as you will be confronted someday, if we don’t stop this cult-like behavior and tell the TRUTH about it.

MORE FROM THE REFORM UK 2024 NATIONAL CONFERENCE

Watch it! This could be yet another Trump like rally in the UK. Did they learn a lesson from Trump on how to take back control?

GOING BACK IN TIME

Sometimes we need to take a step back and remember what really happened in order to move ahead. Is the news media anti-American in not supporting these Trump policies once he was elected..again? Didn’t American vote for these? Wasn’t America sick and tired of the Biden policies, or who’s ever policies that was actually running the country for four years……  Afterall we used democracy to elect Trump, as the democrats don’t seem to understand.

DO YOU LIVE IN NEW ENGLAND?

This one strikes close to home…. this could be your own neighborhood.

ISLAMOPHOBIA OR JUSTIFIED FEAR?

Yes, knowing the TRUTH is important before you shoot off your big fat mouth! Watching this video today should give us all a sense of the twisted view from the Palestinian side. However, these Palestinian activists don’t seem to care about the TRUTH, do they? They don’t want fair and honest dialogue. So, Let’s explain a part of the truth today. I know I many not get it all but I am very close to it.  

First, I need everyone to realize that Hamas terrorist organization was VOTED into power by the Palestinian tribes to rule over the Gaza strip. Again, we go back to being careful what you vote for. This tells me that there is a “common” enemy and its Israel. They needed Hamas to fight Israel and so don’t lie to us about it.

The next question we have to ask is why didn’t the Palestinian people themselves fight Hamas? I just explained to you why. Can they now see the harm that Hamas has brought to their land? What did they expect would happen? Oh…. they thought there might be a quick retribution bombing by Israel and not much more. Then go on with yet another 20 years of the same old. But this did not happen. This was to their surprise.

Are they any better off today? Oh… but they don’t care as long as Israel is destroyed. Again, it always goes back to destroying Israel.   

This Palestinian propaganda has to stop! The TRUTH needs to get out.

We can also put this into the context of WW2. We have to ask Hamas leadership if they have the guts to deal with the results of their non-provoked aggression? Just like Japan ultimately paid the price to end their war when they bombed Pearly Harbor without warning. In WW2 we didn’t sit back and worry about the carnage of the cities from our bombings, not in retribution, but to end the war. It simply had to be done to destroy the enemy or the evil objectives of Hitler and Japan would continue until the free world was gone. Oh…. They say this is a modern world today and this stuff can’t happen. Really?

Why are all these terrorist organizations springing up in the first place?

The Palestinians are so bent of looking at what Israel is doing in Gaza as just retribution, but it is not. It is much, much worst. It is an elimination of the enemy altogether and they will not stop until Hamas is gone and very possibly many of these other terrorist organizations too that come to their aid.  

SPEAKING OF ISLAM.

This may sound weird at first to compare the Muslim movement to the Nazi movement but if the shoe fits wear it. I am going to make it anyway as if we were to turn the clock back and remember what American sentiment towards our real enemies (Germany, Japan and Italy) was back in the 1930’s early 1940’s, most were against going to war again and wanted to avoid it at any cost. Where did that get us? But remember this is a new kind of warfare, not of bullets but for our minds. The bullets only come out once the have a stronghold.

You might want to take a look at this video presentation; it is long but very educational.  Muslim is not a religion it’s an ideology. It is a pretext for terrorism. Of course we envision religions as good but if we really study Islam and Muslims we might find its not all its made out to be. The sad part is they are convincing our young people to overlook the destruction and damage of the Muslim terrorists organization and just read the nicer parts of the Cur’on. We must realize this from the start when we deal with Islam. No one should hate all Muslims as not all Muslims are true to their ideology. They are fake Muslims that do want to live in peace, but the bad ones make it very hard to accept those peaceful ones, as how do you separate them. Once again, we must get to the TRUTH somehow. It is up to the peaceful Muslims to fight the evil Muslims bent on destroying anyone who gets in their way. Just because you call yourself a Muslim does not mean you have to go along with an ideology full of hatred and violence.

I want to point out that there are still a leftover Nazis following their ideology too from WW2 and they still are bent on pushing their ideolog on the world. Should we just bend over and allow them to have their way, knowing the destructive nature of their ideology from the past performance? I hardly can call this a religion. Oh… they have their form of bible too and they call it the Mein Kampf. Why don’t we freely and openly allow them? You will probably say it’s because of all the suffering and destruction from WW2 and you would be right. This is what warped ideologies bring to our societies. This is what the Muslims are bringing to our societies and its can’t continue.

So, I have to play the devils advocate and ask why do we allow Muslims then if we know they can be so harmful? Are these terrorist organizations not the cause of much of the suffering and destruction today? How much longer must we continue this terrorism before we realize the culprit is the ideology of Cur’an much like the Mein Kampf was to the Nazis. Remember that Mein Kampf has many very good aspects and truths to it too, but the END never justifies the MEANS. So does the Cur’an. Yes, I am going to compare the Mein Kampf with the Qur’an. For those young readers of my blog let me explain what the Mein Kampf was since many schools are not even teaching this anymore. Maybe this too is why they just accept the Palestine cause so freely without really knowing what is deeply going on. Yes, we must learn from history.

Mein Kampf (German for “My Struggle”) is a 1925 autobiographical manifesto written by Adolf Hitler, outlining his political beliefs and future plans for Germany. The book promotes key components of Nazism, including antisemitism, a racist worldview, and an aggressive foreign policy aimed at gaining living space in Eastern Europe. It embodies the principles of National Socialism, which Hitler later put into practice. 

Why do developed nations spend billions and billions on security in defense against these terrorists Muslim run organizations? Yet, in the US they allowed a massive immigration of Muslims from the middle east and even allow Mosque to be built in our neighborhoods. am I missing something here? This is unbelievably stupid, don’t you think? Would we have allowed Hitlers henchmen to come into our neighborhoods and set up shop in WW2? Aren’t we still fighting the war on terrorism or have we all forgotten already? Yes, I would feel sorry for all the peaceful Muslims being caught up in the fight, so why not then prove yourself and denounce the violence. Many still refuse to do it and so I rest my case.

Their Muslim ideology is all based on the teachings of the Qur’an. Where did the Qur’an actually come from? I assure you it was not Surah Mohammad. Stay tuned we will find out where it actually came from in the video below. Are the Muslims even being lied to about what they believe to be a religion and a movement for conquest of the planet?  

Remember that there may be some seemingly peaceful, loving Muslims but they are not really true Muslims as they betray their ideology (which is a good thing). We can not go with just a few thousand Muslims we must consider the majority. But like it was hard to separate a good Japanese from a bad one, again today we must think the same about Muslims. Who are really the good and who are the bad.

We already witnessed Ilhan Omar as she was seeded in a massive Syrian immigrant district in Minnesota. Her concentration was on her district but on her activism. Did the democrats allow this massive immigration of Muslims concentrated in these districts then for a reason? What was their plan for the four years of Joe Biden massive immigration policy? Look at the damage she has done and who she really supports. Then there was Rashida Tlaib and again look at her real loyalties to Palestine over the Oct 7^th attack on Israel. I have to ask would we allow know Nazis to infiltrate our government during WW2? Why then do we allow our Muslim enemies in during this was on terrorism? Can’t we better vet these candidates for office? It boggles my mind on this one….. Unfortunately, this is may not be taken lightly by many. What really goes on in the Mosque anyway? Is it just a headquarters for the elite Muslims to plan their next strategy?  

We need to get that straight in our heads first of all that Muslim is an ideology and not a religion. Once we realize this, like with the Nazis and Japanese we can focus on the real enemy and stop pacifying them because we look at them as so religious. Religion has the connotation of a true God centered focus, love and looking after our fellow humans, not just those following our own faith but everyone. Yes, there are many ways of doing this and so many religions have sprung up over thousands of years in this manner. Some even evolved and other groups separated from the original churches with slight variations of changes in dogmas but the goal is always the same – love the neighbor as yourself. 

I will leave the rest to the video.   You can start watching the video at the 27:54 mark.   

THE DIEHARD MUSLIMS IN THE UK: Where does our  fear come from? 

I don’t know about you but just looking at them is scary stuff…. Come on ladies, give it a break and fight for your rights, you saps!

THIS IS A GLOBAL CONSPIRACY

It is evident by the picture below that this video is about REFORM. But what reform am I talking about and why is it necessary in the UK and other countries?

We must again take a step back and ask ourselves why this reform of the UK is even necessary. This video is just an example of what is going all over Europe. We as Americans have so much as stake helping our brothers and sisters overseas to see the TRUTH. In America we finally woke up and it took the majority to wake up to reality and started down the road of real REFORM to fix these wrongs. America is not yet done and still has a long way to go. There is lots of “wokeness”, “tolerance” and “stupidity” to be undone and this is the reform I am referring to.

That is my point and why I decided to bring this video to you today. Our needs are similar across all the developed countries. These globalist want our wealth. They use the United Nations and hide behind it. What they want and need is total control over our nations. They are using their narratives that only cause more destructive chaos and crises. Rather than bring our way of life up they are destroying our cities and cultures.

What can you as a citizen do about it?

The first step is to realize that this is a global conspiracy and it is not just coincidental. It is an orchestrated, well-organized conspiracy. Once you realize the issues are the same abroad as they are in your own country the realization comes and we awaken to the TRUTH. Then and only then can we begin the REFORM steps necessary to stop it.

I realize this next step may not be an easy one for many as these narratives are already ingrained in your head. This is called brainwashing. So, what are these narrative I am talking about. All you need to do it listen to the video below and see if you don’t connect to what is happening in the UK to what is happening in your own country.

I need everyone to realize that what is happening to our GREAT NATIONS is by design, it is not coincidental. We see these similar issues of racism, sexism, crime, immigration, social welfare, our military, energy, free speech, patriotism, massive debt, twisted history lessons, etc, etc. This is all by design.

Can’t you see that it is a war for our minds and souls. Remember the Joe Biden election campaign of 2020- They were “fighting for the souls of our nation” not to make it great again or to better our way of life but to take our souls. This was their words not mine.  

Somehow these globalist, through their narratives, gear people towards their inner emotions. This plants the seeds of destruction. Again, I say that when they use FEAR as motivator it normally results in a woke ideology and even beyond our common sense.

So, I bring the video to you today so people in America and the rest of Europe can see that you are not alone in this weird conspiracy of wokeness to bring down your countries. Listen to the speakers and see if it’s not the same issues facing your country as it is in the UK today. Oh…coincidental? But this does not stop in the UK as this virus of wokeness and evil that has spread all across Europe and even jumped across the ocean into the United States and Canada too.

God has told us it will be His hand that will be instrumental in taking back out nations. Now we see the UK revolution beginning. Hey…this looks like a Trump rally to me… LOL..

Pay close attention to the issues! It’s all about the issues which are the narratives forced upon us. WOW! WOW! WOW!

COMPLETE PSYCHO MELTDOWN

After listening to today’s video of these democrat politicians one has to think that they must be mentally retarded or something. It is VERY sad! Really now, what is it that they don’t get? Why fight so much on reforms that can clearly only better every citizen in the US? Do they really hate someone so much that they would betray their own country?

So, maybe they are not mentally retarded after all. Maybe they rant and rave because their narratives that have allowed them so much control, power and theft of billions, are now all falling apart under the current president. One must conclude this is only yet more proof once again that these narratives are intentional and well-planned out by the democrats.

They think they are gaining support by these rants? In reality more and more are waking up as a result. They are not doing the party any favors.

How do these people even get voted in the first place. Are Americans that dumb?

IRAQ HAS GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY TO RISE AND PROGRESS, SAYS FORMER FOREIGN MINISTER

Hoshyar Zebari cites relative calm encouraging more investment, as well as positive change across the region. Iraq has a golden opportunity to “stand on its feet and move forward”, former deputy prime minister and foreign minister Hoshyar Zebari has told The National, urging the country to seize the moment to consolidate its stability.

Baghdad has undergone a construction boom in recent years and investors are returning to the country. BP has resumed operations, while talks are under way with international oil giant ExxonMobil and an agreement in principle has been signed with Chevron.

Since early 2023, more than $100 billion in investment has been pledged – $64 billion from foreign investors and $38.6 billion from domestic companies – according to Haider Makiya, chairman of the National Investment Commission.

Several factors are driving this development surge:

1. Security has improved to unprecedented levels; Iraq has never been as calm since 2003.

2.The relative calm in the country since late 2022, when the government of Mohammed Shia Al Sudani took over, has given authorities the confidence to launch infrastructure projects and introduce reforms aimed at improving the business environment.

This came after decades of war, UN-imposed economic sanctions, corruption and mismanagement that derailed growth in Iraq, despite it being the second-largest oil producer in OPEC. “Iraq is moving on many fronts. This year, Iraq is having national elections to elect a new government,” said Mr Zebari. “Economically, it is inviting foreign investors primarily because there has been better security throughout the country. There are fewer terrorist attacks and disturbances.

“It has also recently encouraged American companies, especially in the oil sector [to come and invest].” Mr Zebari praised the “goodwill of the Iraqi government”, although the situation has not settled completely. He also warned that the drone attacks that were targeted at US investments in the semi-autonomous Kurdish region of northern Iraq in July could undermine investor confidence.

“The Iraqi government investigated this case, but when the probe concluded, they didn’t name any of the culprits, which really discourages investors,” he said.

This summer, multiple explosive-laden drones struck oilfields in the Kurdish region over several consecutive days. Authorities there have blamed militias linked to the Popular Mobilisation Forces (PMF), a coalition of mostly Iran-aligned former paramilitaries now integrated into Iraq’s armed forces. Baghdad has rejected that accusation.

Iran and its proxies have long accused Iraqi Kurdistan of hosting Israeli intelligence bases and have previously struck Erbil with missiles. “Iraq needs more than anything else a conducive environment for investors, security, the court, the laws and the control of the outlaws and militias,” said Mr Zebari.

Positive change

Last month, the Iraqi government withdrew the PMF integration bill from parliament after strong US pressure. The contentious draft law proposed restructuring and widening the powers of the group. The US said the law could have undermined Iraq’s sovereignty and entrenched Iranian influence in the political and security realm.

The bill was expected to elevate the PMF, which was established in 2014 to help fight ISIS, to a status on par with the rest of the Iraqi military.

“The American position has been very outspoken recently, unlike before. They used to pass these messages through diplomatic channels. This time they have come openly and publicly that they will not support the passing of the PMF law,” said Mr Zebari.

He also noted a “positive change” in the region and a trend of bringing arms and non-state actors under state control.

Lebanon’s cabinet recently approved an army plan to reassert the state’s monopoly on weapons, including those belonging to the powerful Iran-backed Hezbollah.

In Syria, the transitional leadership under President Ahmad Al Shara is pursuing a campaign to fold remaining militias into a reconstituted national army as part of post-war state-building.

And in the Kurdish arena, the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) began signalling demobilisation this summer, the first concrete step towards a promised disarmament as part of a peace process.

Regional shifts

Regional power dynamics have shifted sharply over the past year after Iran’s so-called Axis of Resistance suffered a string of strategic setbacks. Hezbollah in Lebanon and Hamas in Gaza were left militarily degraded after wars with Israel depleted their fighters, leadership and capabilities.

Syria – long propped up by Iranian military and financial backing – saw the fall of the Assad regime late last year, removing a central client-state and a pivotal conduit for Tehran’s regional influence that connected Iran to the Mediterranean via Iraq and Lebanon. In Iraq, Iran’s hold over the militias has also weakened.

In June, Israel, with US support in follow-up strikes, mounted a focused campaign against Iranian nuclear-related sites and associated military infrastructure, inflicting damage that disrupted Tehran’s program. But Mr Zebari says the fall of the Assad regime in Syria was a “turning point in the Middle East”.

“It came at a pivotal moment. It came as a surprise to many regional powers, and I think it was a blessing for the entire region, although the new rulers were unknown. But politics accept realities on the ground,” he said. “The new rulers of Syria have made great strides in less than a year. They now enjoy acceptance and recognition within the Arab region and internationally.”

EXPERT: IRAQ’S SINGLE-SOURCE INCOME THREATENS AN ECONOMIC CRISIS WITHIN YEARS

Economic expert Abdul Rahman Al Mashhadani confirmed that tax revenues in Iraq are unclear, pointing to the lack of accurate data on the categories covered by the tax, especially those working in the private sector.

Al-Mashhadani told Al-Furat News Agency that “the lack of data on private sector workers represents a real challenge to tax collection,” noting that “the current year’s budget included 27 trillion dinars in non-oil revenues.”

He added that “the revenues generated from these budgets do not exceed 50% of the budgeted amount, while actual revenues were supposed to be higher than the specified amount,” warning that “the economic situation in Iraq is facing an existing crisis, which could worsen in the coming years if real measures are not taken to diversify sources of income.”

Al-Mashhadani continued, “Reliance on a single resource, oil, makes the Iraqi economy vulnerable to fluctuations in global markets, which directly impacts the general budget and the government’s ability to meet expenditures.”

IRAQ SIGNS SEVEN INVESTMENT CONTRACTS IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE INTERNATIONAL FINANCE CORPORATION (IFC).

Launch of the Partnership Day celebration between the International Finance Corporation and the Iraqi government

The Iraqi government signed seven investment contracts today, Saturday, in partnership and financing with the International Finance Corporation (IFC).

This came during an official ceremony in which the seven contracts were signed, as follows:

A $500 million contract was signed with Basra Gas Company to invest in associated gas and develop Umm Qasr Port facilities.

A $250 million financing and expansion agreement with Al-Muhaidib Group for the cement and lubricants production sector.

A $125 million financing contract for container handling equipment and a storage yard at Umm Qasr Port was signed with Al-Lorraine Investment Company.

The first phase of the Green Residential Real Estate Development Project in Sulaymaniyah was awarded to Hiwa Rauf Investment Company for $65 million.

A $10 million credit line financing agreement was signed with the Bank of Baghdad to finance international trade.

An investment partnership was concluded to establish sustainable agricultural and industrial projects with Sama Al Manar/Teriyaki Agro, valued at $120 million.

A partnership was signed with Captain Ship Holdings to establish a $250 million teaching hospital, and a partnership was signed with Al-Ula SME Finance Company for advisory services and investment attraction development.

Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani delivered a speech at the contract signing ceremony, in which he highlighted the importance of the partnership with the International Finance Corporation, given the distinguished capabilities of the private sector, which has demonstrated an effective presence in implementing reconstruction and development projects and has endured various forms of bureaucracy, corruption, and security challenges.

He explained that the government measures aimed at improving the business environment clearly led to attracting international companies to work and invest in Iraq, and the value of Arab and foreign investments reached (100) billion dollars in the volume of licenses and companies that have already begun implementing the investment.

Al-Sudani noted that attracting foreign capital has contributed to supporting the stability of the Iraqi economy and has encouraged other international financial institutions, including those from Germany, Italy, France, Britain, and China, to contribute to financing a significant number of development projects. He also noted that this has provided legal and administrative frameworks and removed red tape, creating more job opportunities.

MORE THAN 15 TRILLION DINARS ARE KEPT IN CASH IN THE HOMES OF CITIZENS  

(There are many discrepancies in this article. I don’t know why they are making so many mistakes. Please see my comments throughout)

The governor of the Central Bank of Iraq says 80 percent of Iraq’s money is in households and stresses that they are trying to increase citizens’ confidence in banks.

(Okay so they told us previously that the money supply was at 100 trillion dinars. So, 80% of 100 trillion is not 15 trillions but 80 trillion. So which is it? I suspect it is more like 15 trillion and not what previous articles have told us.

Central Bank Governor Ali Alaq said the 2025 banking reform plan is a strategic step to strengthen confidence in the Iraqi banking system and solve problems.

He said 80 percent of Iraqi money is outside the banks and in the homes, due to lack of confidence in the banks. He added that the banking reform plan includes updating the banking system, in line with international standards and attracting global companies.

Meanwhile, Mustafa Garawi, a member of the Finance Committee of the Iraqi Parliament, warned that this phenomenon has led to a decline in market movement and economic activity.

He revealed that; According to reports, the money held in households is more than 100 trillion dinars.

Earlier, economic researcher Haider Sheikh revealed; The Central Bank of Iraq is really suffering from a shortage of cash and flows, due to the lack of confidence in the banking system and the least trust in public and private banks, which has led many citizens to keep their money in Iraqi dinars. 

revealed; More than 15 trillion Iraqi dinars are kept in cash in the homes of citizens and salaried employees, so the central bank and the Iraqi government should solve this problem and inflation, through the formulation of economic and financial policy and banking facilities for citizens and restore confidence.

(Yet another discrepancy. Inflation in Iraq is at best 2%. This is so low many categorize it as

IRAQ IS LOSING MORE THAN $11 MILLION EVERY DAY AS BAGHDAD BLOCKS KURDISTAN OIL EXPORTS

Baghdad’s failure to pass an oil and gas law and its pressure tactics on Erbil have stalled Kurdistan’s exports, costing Iraq over $4 billion annually.

Iraq is losing more than $11 million every single day due to the continued suspension of oil exports from the Kurdistan Region, according to the ECO IRAQ Observatory, a specialized economic monitoring platform known for its independent assessments of the country’s energy and financial policies. The observatory placed direct blame on Baghdad’s parliament for failing to resolve the long-standing dispute over oil and gas management.

The U.S.-based observatory on Saturday revealed that the Kurdistan Region was expected to export approximately 230,000 barrels of crude oil per day, in addition to allocating around 50,000 barrels for local consumption. With the cost of extraction and transportation standing at $16 per barrel and $1.5 in fees to Turkey for delivering crude to the Ceyhan port, the net profit per barrel remains substantial.

At an estimated price of $66 per barrel, the suspension of these exports translates into a staggering daily loss of $11.16 million, amounting to $334 million per month and over $4 billion annually in missed revenues for Iraq.

Despite these heavy financial losses, the federal government in Baghdad has failed to reach an agreement with Erbil, leaving negotiations shrouded in secrecy and accountability lacking.

The monitoring group held Iraq’s parliament directly responsible, accusing it of creating chaos by refusing to pass a long-awaited ‘Oil and Gas Law’ to regulate and manage the country’s oil and gas sector.

 A Chronic Dispute that Hurts All of Iraq

The ongoing deadlock over the Kurdistan Region’s oil exports is far from a mere technical disagreement. At its core lies Baghdad’s long-standing unwillingness to recognize the Region’s constitutional rights under the 2005 Iraqi Constitution, which granted the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) shared authority over natural resources.

Instead of honoring these commitments, successive Iraqi administrations have politicized oil exports, using them as a pressure tool against the people of Kurdistan.

For years, Erbil has argued that independent oil exports are essential to pay public salaries, fund infrastructure projects, and provide stability in a region that has already borne the brunt of wars, economic blockades, and hosting millions of displaced people.

Baghdad, however, has repeatedly resorted to financial blackmail, cutting salaries, and withholding the Kurdistan Region’s rightful share of the federal budget, all while demanding full control of oil revenues.

This centralization of power has not only strangled the Kurdistan Region’s economy but also damaged Iraq’s international credibility. Foreign investors view Baghdad’s unpredictable policies and arbitrary interventions as a sign of instability, deterring long-term partnerships in the energy sector. The failure to establish a comprehensive oil and gas law, despite two decades of promises, has left Iraq unable to fully capitalize on its resources, costing the country billions.

Political Stalemate and Hidden Agendas

Behind the scenes, negotiations between Baghdad and Erbil have remained closed to media scrutiny, fueling speculation that the Iraqi government is intentionally dragging its feet. Observers note that while Baghdad enjoys revenues from southern oil fields, it shows little urgency in resolving the crisis in the north, effectively punishing the Kurdish population while claiming to act in the interest of national unity.

The suspension of exports through the Iraq-Turkey pipeline since March 2023 has already deprived international markets of Kurdish oil, strained ties with Ankara, and weakened Iraq’s bargaining position globally. Yet, Baghdad has treated this issue as secondary, prioritizing political maneuvering over economic necessity.

Critics argue that this reflects Baghdad’s broader policy of undermining the Kurdistan Region’s autonomy. By blocking Erbil’s ability to export oil, Baghdad seeks to force the Region into submission, disregarding the severe financial and social consequences for millions of Kurdish citizens who rely on stable revenues to sustain daily life.

Kurdistan Pays the Price

The people of the Kurdistan Region ultimately pay the price for Baghdad’s failures. Delayed salaries, underfunded public services, and an economy held hostage by political disputes are daily realities. While Iraq as a whole suffers billions in losses, it is the Kurdish families, civil servants, and business owners who face the harshest impact.

Instead of fostering cooperation and equitable resource-sharing, Baghdad has weaponized oil policy, undermining the spirit of federalism and alienating the very partner that has been instrumental in stabilizing Iraq, particularly during the war against ISIS.

Until Iraq’s leaders demonstrate the political will to pass a fair oil and gas law and respect the constitutional rights of the Kurdistan Region, the crisis will continue to fester—bleeding Iraq’s economy, eroding investor confidence, and deepening mistrust between Baghdad and Erbil.

IRAQ’S 2025 ELECTION: A RECALIBRATION OF POWER, NOT A RUPTURE OF THE STATUS QUO

By Yasir Kuoti and Ali Taher al-Hamoud

September 11, 2025

The air in Iraq is thick these days with political anticipation. On Nov. 11, 2025, Iraqis will head to the polls — for the seventh time since the U.S.-led invasion in 2003 — to elect a new 329-seat parliament from among a crowded field of 37 alliances, 38 parties, and nearly 80 candidates running as independents. With more than 21 million registered voters, the contest looms large, stirring talks in coffeehouses, WhatsApp groups, marketplaces, and living rooms across the country.

Atmospherics suggest the opportunity for change, if not a radical one. Voter energy appears renewed, and expectations of higher turnout are real. A government emerging from this election with a stronger popular mandate could offer the political stability necessary for consistent policymaking, credible reform, and a more predictable posture on the international stage. In a polarized Middle East, a functional Iraq could serve as a bridge between rival powers, tempering regional tensions and leveraging its status as both a major energy producer and a geopolitical hinge state.

For the United States, the stakes are particularly high. A more resilient and sufficiently independent Iraq could represent a long-delayed dividend on decades of strategic, political, and military investment and cooperation.

And yet, for all the optimism, the election is unlikely to fundamentally rupture the political order that has defined Iraq since 2003. The system of muhasasa — the power-sharing arrangement that apportions power among Iraq’s three main ethno-sectarian groups — remains deeply entrenched. Once conceived as a safeguard for pluralism, it has become widely viewed as the scaffolding of corruption, collusion, and patronage networks that continues to define Iraqi politics today. While the vote may not undo the muhasasa, it could change the internal balance of power, recalibrating which elites hold the levers of government.

A Third Shiite Path?  

Against this backdrop, marked by the withdrawal of major Shiite players like Muqtada al Sadr’s al-Tayyar al-Watani al-Shiite (the Shiite Patriotic Current) and former Prime Minister Haider al Abadi’s Tahaluf al-Nasr (Victory Alliance), incumbent Prime Minister Mohammed Shea al Sudani, a Shiite Muslim, emerges as a defining figure and an election frontrunner. His popular appeal is rooted in his reputation as a pragmatic, managerial, and moderate leader, garnering him rare cross-cutting appeal in a fragmented political field. A key pillar of al Sudani’s growing popularity and legitimacy since taking office in October 2022 has been his ability to balance competing interests while projecting a unifying national vision.

This balance has been achieved through three main mechanisms.

The first is his domestic balancing acts, as he is widely seen as a manager of contradictions, attempting to strengthen state institutions while maintaining intimate ties to the very actors who weaken them (as important are his balancing acts with both Washington and Tehran).

The second is his appealing nationalist, non-sectarian rhetoric that contrasts with Iraq’s historically sectarian political discourse.

Finally, his tangible track record in public service delivery — energy projects, roads and bridges, refineries, and so on —  has earned him credibility even in non-Shiite majority areas of the country. Together, these have bolstered his position as a pragmatic leader in a deeply fragmented political landscape.

For many Iraqis, al Sudani represents the hope for a “third Shiite path,” positioned somewhere between the conservatives of the pro-Iran al-Itar al-Tanseqi (the Coordination Framework) and the more religious-nationalist Shiites like al Sadr. It remains to be seen if this hope materializes. At present, it is hard to know without a decisive electoral outcome that could allow al Sudani the time and space to act on his own ideas or ideology. Similarly, it is naturally difficult for him to do so at present, because he still relies on the Coordination Framework to stay in office; his own party, al-Furatayn, has only two members in Parliament. As such, there are limits to how much he can do. That could and should change if he has, say, 70 members in Parliament, and can ally with like-minded parties and individuals. Then we might be able to see his own ideas come to the surface more clearly.

But if one were to judge by al Sudani’s performance over the last two years, and despite his pragmatic and popular approach, it becomes clear that he represents merely a new, younger face of the Coordination Framework. While there has always been fierce competition between al Sudani and other members of the Framework, he is still operating within their established system of formal and informal rules defined by, among other things, patronage networks, sectarianism, and the dominance of political factions with paramilitary wings, which has long shaped Iraq’s governance. In this respect, a win by al Sudani may still reshape elite politics without necessarily or formally disrupting the system.

His newly launched pre-election alliance, Tahaluf al-Immar wa al-Tanmiya (the Reconstruction and Development Alliance) — a broad coalition of technocrats, nationalists, tribal leaders, civil-minded figures, and veterans of traditional Shiite parties such as Members of Parliament Hanan Fatlawi and Aliya Nusaif, formerly of the Itlaf Dawlat al-Qanon (State of Law Alliance) of former Prime Minister Nouri al Maliki — represents a bid to consolidate a pragmatic governing base. If translated into electoral capital, it could give him the leverage to build a more coherent governing coalition than his predecessors — if one were to assume that his disparate array of political candidates and entities have come together for the clear purpose of reforming the status quo from within. If this materializes, it will mark no small achievement in a country long plagued by fragile leadership and eroding public trust. By contrast, Iraq’s once unrivaled traditional political heavyweights, such as al Maliki, Sayyed Ammar al Hakim, and Sheikh Qais al Khazeli, are likely to underperform electorally and to see their standing erode over allegations of state capture, and, importantly, an inability to resonate with a largely  younger electorate. Therefore, a significant test for al Sudani would be to show that he is marching on a new path and that his current membership in an alliance dominated by paramilitary groups was no more than an expedient transitory necessity.

Beyond parliamentary arithmetic, the election will likely shape the coalition politics that determine Iraq’s domestic politics and foreign policy orientation. The outcome is expected to influence Iraq’s role in a Middle East that is being reshaped by shifting alliances and regional tensions. For observers abroad, the November vote offers a window into if Iraq can consolidate a measure of political stability, whether it emerges as a more confident regional actor or continues to stumble under the weight of its political traditions, or if elite bargains will once again dilute the promise of change.

Current Political Landscape

The 2025 election will unfold against a backdrop of turbulence. Several key political players have withdrawn from the electoral race, shifting the political landscape, especially in the case of al Sadr. The reintroduction by the Coordination Framework-dominated Parliament of a closed list electoral system, which was used in the recent provincial elections and will be used again for the upcoming parliamentary one after it was abandoned in 2020 in response to protest pressure, returned control back to entrenched elites and will make it harder for smaller parties and individual independents to win seats. At the same time, social and economic inequalities have deepened, with many Iraqis feeling the widening gap between the general population on the one hand and the political class and their cronies and operatives on the other. Meanwhile, fueled by insufficient fiscal management and corruption, Iraq’s economic fragility continues to worsen. All this comes as the country faces urgent environmental crises, including severe drought and water shortage, threatening both the agricultural sector and long-term stability.

Iraq once again finds itself at a familiar crossroads: reformist aspirations colliding with entrenched power. Among other things, the electoral contest pits two broader visions of the future against each other: institutional consolidation versus militia autonomy. A draft law that would have further institutionalized the Popular Mobilization Forces’ place within the state apparatus remains stalled amid fears, both domestic and international, that it would cement Iranian influence through proxy forces. It also pits al Sudani against some unruly militias. Recently, al Sudani has signaled his willingness to check militia power, most dramatically with the removal of senior commanders from Kataib Hezbollah following their deadly clash with the security forces of Interior Ministry in Baghdad.

Beyond the politics of the “Shiite house,” the Sunni and Kurdish houses are also recalibrating their strategies. The once-dominant Taqqadum (Progress) party, led by former Parliament Speaker Mohammed al Halbousi, faces fierce competition from rival Sunni groups eager to capture disaffected Sunni voters. In the Kurdish north, the Kurdistan Democratic Party, Patriotic Union of Kurdistan, and the New Generation movement remain mired in their own internal rivalries, weakening their bargaining positions in Baghdad.

Mechanisms of Power

Beneath Iraq’s fragmented political arena lies a unifying architecture: an informal web of power that blurs the line between state and party, militia and ministry. Political elites of the various ethno-sectarian stripes exercise dominance not merely through ideological outfits but also through control of institutions. Ministries, commissions, and state offices function less as national bureaucracies than as partisan fiefdoms. Ask almost any Iraqi about a public office, and the reply is telling: “it belongs to” a specific party.

Economic clout reinforces this system. Political actors monopolize state contracts, dominate public-sector hiring, and use these levers to reward loyalty and discipline dissent. The media landscape is equally captured: Television networks and news outlets, often owned outright by political elites and parties, curate narratives designed to entrench their patrons’ legitimacy and discredit rivals. The result is a hybridized order that is part bureaucratic, part patronage-based, and part coercive. It is neither purely democratic nor fully authoritarian, but a form of competitive authoritarianism that operates beneath Iraq’s democratic façade.

Al Sudani’s Appeal 

Al Sudani appeal rests not merely on incumbency but also on a record of public service delivery and balancing political acts. This will likely translate into electoral gains in most areas. If his coalition secures 50 to 60 seats, with strong showings in Baghdad and the Shiite heartlands of southern Iraq including Basra, Dhi-Qar, Diwaniyah, Najaf, and Babel, it will enable him to enter post-election coalition negotiations with a decisive first-mover advantage. An endorsement or approval from al Sadr could turn this advantage into a landslide, especially in provinces where al Sadr is historically a dominant player, such as Baghdad, Najaf, and Dhi-Qar. Indeed, even without his formal return to the process, al Sadr remains the wildcard. His likely silence on, say, al Sudani’s campaigning in Sadr City in Baghdad and other Sadr strongholds across the country, may be read as a tacit endorsement, as al Sudani continues to promise a fierce fight against corruption, the subordination of armed factions to the state, and adoption of Iraq-first policies, all things Sadr. That possibility would dramatically marginalize hardline elements of the Coordination Framework and could cement al Sudani as the system’s most indispensable power broker.

Moreover, al Sudani’s popularity extends beyond Shiite provinces. His non-sectarian rhetoric and track record in public service delivery across the country have earned him credibility in Sunni-majority areas like Nineveh and Salah al-Din, though it remains to be seen if this popularity turns into electoral votes in an explicitly sectarian political system. It also remains to be seen whether al Sudani popularity in Shiite places like Kerbala and Diwaniya could pry away seats from former Prime Minister Nouri al Maliki’s State of Law bloc and Iran-aligned factions such as Badr and Asa’ib Ahl al-Haq.

A surge in voter turnout, which we expect, could amplify Sudani gains. Many Iraqis appear unwilling to repeat the low-participation missteps of the 2021 election, when boycotts by pro-reform constituencies ceded ground to entrenched partisan parties. The legacy of the 2019 Tishreen (October) protest movement, its frustrations and limitations, has left a growing recognition that only the ballot box can translate popular anger into structural change. For many, al Sudani could be the initial pragmatic vehicle for that possibility.

Should al Sudani consolidate power, the implications are significant. Economically, he is expected to continue channeling investment into public services and infrastructure, while aiming for energy independence by 2027, an achievement that would be transformative for both the economy, political stability, and overall everyday life. On the flip side, with additional investments, public hirings, and expansion of social safety programs, al Sudani has clearly brought the country to a critical financial juncture, and he will likely find himself compelled — or incentivized — to make economic reforms, some of which would be painful to ordinary citizens. These may include lowering the value of the Iraqi dinar, as he will likely find himself in need of financial liquidity, which the government is increasingly struggling with, to pay public salaries and investment projects.

A strong parliamentary base could give al Sudani the legislative cover to resist patronage networks and pursue anti-corruption probes, while gradually reining in militia autonomy through a mix of institutional incentives and selective coercion. Yet the test of consolidation hinges on several critical variables: the size of his paramilitary bloc; al Sadr’s support; the ability of reformist civil lists to disrupt the entrenched powers of traditional parties of old elites in places like Dhi-Qar, Wasit, and Najaf; the response of Najaf’s clerical establishment; and whether anti-reform elites adapt, resist, or slide into irrelevance. The battle for Baghdad’s seat distribution and the ability of independents to siphon votes from entrenched elites may prove the ultimate bellwether.

Al Sudani’s advantage is real but not preordained. His success will hinge on whether Iraqis see in him not just a manager of balancing acts but a leader capable of redefining the political tempo for post-2003 system.

Looking Ahead

A potential al Sudani victory is unlikely to revolutionize Iraq’s political architecture. Known more as a centrist manager than a revolutionary, his second term would probably usher in a period of cautious consolidation rather than dramatic change. Yet in a system long paralyzed by dysfunction, even incremental progress could mark a turning point. Indeed, incrementalism is nothing but a sensible reform mechanism, as reform need not to be treated as either inevitable or impossible. Importantly, power redistribution, even though occurring within the framework of the muhasasa system, and while not revolutionary, could still be meaningful, especially if al Sudani can consolidate his electoral base and marginalize more anti-reform and hardline elements. The real test will be whether this incrementalism, designed to ensure stability, can produce enough visible gains to breathe life into a status quo many consider clinically ailing.

This hinges on three important factors: the resilience of Iraq’s institutions, the mobilization of public support, and on regional and international support. Entrenched elites are unlikely to surrender their rents without a fight, and without broad societal and international backing, even modest reforms risk reversal. Iraqis have repeatedly shown, most vividly during the Tishreen protests, that they crave better governance. But unless that energy is channeled into sustained political pressure, the forces of inertia will likely outlast incremental reform.

Ultimately, if it is to last, Iraq’s reform path will have to be decided in Baghdad. Still, if incremental progress holds, it could unlock not only greater stability at home but also new opportunities for a region in search of anchors.

IRAQ MOVES TO EXPLOIT ITS GEOGRAPHICAL LOCATION IN THE DIGITAL WORLD TO CONNECT THREE CONTINENTS

Shafaq News – The Iraqi Ministry of Communications unveiled new plans on Saturday to leverage Iraq’s unique geographic location, making it a key link between Southeast Asia and Europe via the Indian Ocean, the Arabian Sea, and the Gulf.

Basra Communications Director Mohammed Helou told Shafaq News Agency, “Iraq has a strategic location that allows for the efficient reception and transmission of digital capacities. Currently, there are submarine cables in service, such as FALCON and GBI, that transmit data from Southeast Asian countries and India to Europe. These existing projects are a first step towards investing in the Iraqi corridor for global communications services, and they represent the foundation upon which larger projects currently under implementation are being built.”

According to Al-Helou, “The past period included the signing of four contracts to install new submarine cables, the most prominent of which is the Toferica project, which is the longest in the world at 45,000 kilometers. This cable starts from Europe and descends to Africa via the Atlantic Ocean, then passes through the Horn of Africa and reaches Southeast Asia, before branching out to Iraq via the Arabian Gulf outlet.”

He explained that “work is expected to commence during the last quarter of this year, with the possibility of it entering service next year, marking a qualitative leap that will strengthen Iraq’s position on the international data map.”

Other projects, according to Al-Helou, include the Fiber In Gulf cable, which was signed last March with Ooredoo, and which represents a qualitative leap from a technical standpoint, as it consists of 24 fibers (optical fibers) with a massive transmission capacity of up to 720 terabits, and the total length of the route is 1,900 kilometers. Iraq is a key part of this project, which is currently in the stage of demarcating the route and obtaining the necessary approvals.

He pointed out that “the contract for the 27,000-kilometre North Gulf SMW cable is already in place, in addition to the Warlink cable, which is intended to connect databases.”

He considered these projects to be sovereign and would enhance Iraq’s position in the region, as the capacities would be unloaded at the Faw Port and later transferred to Europe via the national system, thus contributing to shortening the distance and solving the problem of delayed and weak data.

Helou concluded by saying, “Iraq will be a new hub for global digital development, and international companies will move to open data centers there, strengthening the country’s sovereignty and digital security.”

PRESENTED BY AN AMERICAN COMPANY: EXPERT: POWERFUL PARTIES ARE PRESSURING THE CENTRAL BANK TO THWART THE REFORM PLAN.

Economic expert Ziad al-Hashemi spoke on Saturday, September 13, 2025, about “pressure exerted by powerful parties” on the Central Bank of Iraq to “thwart the banking reform plan” presented by an American consulting firm. He indicated that implementing the plan would rid the Iraqi banking system of most of its problems and “clear its reputation.” He explained that the plan would force “shop” bank owners to pay the price for establishing banks without banking standards and controls, and for living off dollar transfers. (In other words clean up your act or you will be forced out of business)

Al-Hashemi said in a tweet followed by Al-Jabal that “the Central Bank of Iraq is under pressure from some powerful parties to thwart the banking reform plan, empty it of its content, maintain the miserable banking situation, and expose more banks to the risk of sanctions.”

He added, “We must first recognize that the Central Bank of Iraq’s reform plan, presented by the American consulting firm, does not rely on specific standards imposed by the Federal Reserve, but rather on international standards, the most important of which are the Basel Standards for Banking Supervision, which focus on the adequacy and quality of capital, governance, the distribution of ownership and its separation from management, risk management, and the level of disclosure.”

He explained, “This reform plan will force owners of convenience stores to pay the price for establishing banks that do not meet banking standards and regulations, and for living off dollar transfers. Therefore, they have no choice now but to comply with the terms of the plan, merge, or liquidate.

So far, many of these bank owners insist on remaining in control of their banks, and this is a point of contention with the reform requirements that could lead to the plan’s failure.”

He continued, “Experience has proven that the concentration of bank ownership in the hands of a small number of families and non-specialized individuals was one of the main reasons for the deterioration of the banks’ situation, weak governance, increased financial risks, and increased fraud cases. There are also other pressures to prevent banks from increasing their capital or hindering the level of governance, especially with regard to the ‘fit and proper’ standard for assessing the integrity, good reputation, and expertise of banks’ senior management.”

Al-Hashemi explained that “the banking reform plan, if implemented efficiently by the Central Bank of Iraq, will certainly contribute to ridding the Iraqi banking system of most of its problems, cleaning up its reputation, and raising the quality of its services. Therefore, the Central Bank’s success in implementing the reform plan is a matter that deserves praise and a hat-trick to the Central Bank. Implementing the reform plan is difficult, but it is possible, and success in that depends first and foremost on the Central Bank’s strictness, decisiveness, and ability to impose its reform will on everyone.”

Al-Hashemi asked, “Will we finally salute the Central Bank, or will we continue to witness yet another failure of reform and submission to the powerful bank owners and patrons?”

On August 16, Al-Hashemi spoke about the Central Bank of Iraq’s position on implementing the “reforms” that the US Federal Reserve and the US Treasury Department want to implement in the Iraqi banking system. He also addressed what he described as “powerful” entities in Iraq, which own and operate dozens of banks and live off the dollar and the revenues of those banks. He pointed to a “reform” action plan for the Iraqi banking system, presented by an American company, which he described as facing “opposition behind the scenes” from parties that benefit from maintaining the status quo without reform.

Al-Hashemi said, “The Central Bank of Iraq has a ‘last chance’ to reform its banking system by implementing the reform plan and imposing its will on those obstructing it. Otherwise, the Treasury and the Federal Reserve will be on the lookout.” He explained that, “For years, the Federal Reserve and the US Treasury have pursued a direct, strict policy with the Central Bank of Iraq, which has forced nearly 50% of banks out of work or dealing in dollars as a result of sanctions and deprivation.”

He added, “During that period, the Federal Reserve imposed numerous conditions and requirements on the Central Bank of Iraq to increase compliance, the most important of which were expanding the scope of direct transfers and electronic payments, streamlining the number of banks by liquidating some banks and merging others, and changing the ownership structure and capitalization of banks.”

He pointed out that “this situation has put the Central Bank of Iraq in a very difficult position, caught between the hammer of the Federal Reserve and the anvil of powerful parties in Iraq, which own and operate dozens of banks and live off the dollar and the revenues generated by those banks.”

He pointed out that “as a compromise to spare the Central Bank of Iraq the embarrassment and pressure it is facing, an American company (OW), which has joint working relationships with the Federal Reserve and the US Treasury, has been commissioned to  assess  the Iraqi banking system and present a reform action plan for it.”

He added, “The company presented a banking reform plan, which included requirements based on and consistent with those demanded by the Federal Reserve and the Treasury over the past year. This means that the Central Bank of Iraq received the same US federal requirements, but indirectly through an American company, in what appears to be a tactic to cover up direct federal intervention in reforming the Iraqi banking system.”

He continued, “The plan is now ready for implementation after the Central Bank announced it, but it appears there is some opposition behind the scenes to obstruct its implementation by some parties who benefit from the status quo without reform.”

He pointed out that “the Central Bank of Iraq now has no choice but to adhere to the banking reform plan presented by the consulting firm. Otherwise, the Federal Reserve and the Treasury will return to direct intervention and force reforms on the Central Bank or impose further restrictions and even sanctions.”

The expert explained that “the return of the Treasury and the Federal Reserve to direct intervention and pressure is a sensitive issue that the Central Bank of Iraq is striving to avoid, to protect its reputation and affirm its independence and ability to implement reforms. This requires a firm and decisive stance from the Central Bank’s management to implement this reform plan without yielding to any internal dictates or pressures.”

SOMO PLANS TO ADD NEW OIL AND GAS RAW MATERIALS AND BOOST GAS INVESTMENTS.

SOMO Chairman Ali Nizar Al-Shatri revealed efforts to diversify export markets for Iraqi crude oil, alongside increased investments in liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) infrastructure. He confirmed SOMO’s plans to add more new crude oils in the coming period.

Al-Shatri said, according to the Energy Platform, “Asian markets are the fastest-growing markets in energy demand, so Iraq is keen to meet this demand and strengthen its presence there. At the same time, however, we are keen to maintain a balanced export to other markets in a way that serves Iraq’s strategic interests.”

He added, “Iraq has always engaged with the European market with interest, but our policy is based on sustainable exports linked to our production capabilities, far from momentary decisions. We seek a long-term presence in Europe, not merely exploiting a temporary circumstance.”

He added, “We are constantly monitoring developments in global markets, and there are already studies underway to open new outlets in Africa and Latin America. However, any move will be carefully considered and serve Iraq’s long-term interests. Iraq exports to a wide range of countries, exceeding 40, which reflects the diversity of the markets we deal with and underscores the flexibility of our exports.”

He pointed out that “Iraq is open to all initiatives that contribute to diversifying export routes, but any such step is linked to technical, security, and political conditions. Therefore, the matter is still under study and discussion, and we are always looking for practical alternatives that ensure continued exports and serve the national economy. Negotiations and options are available, but they must be dealt with within a framework that guarantees common interests and maintains transparency.”

He explained, “There are efforts to add new raw materials to reflect the geographic diversity of Iraqi production. This enhances marketing flexibility and provides consumers with more options. Iraq has promising potential in this area, and there are plans to increase investments in gas infrastructure, enabling a gradual increase in export rates and contributing to maximizing national revenues.”

SOMO ANNOUNCES TERMINATION OF CONTRACTS WITH KURDISTAN OIL COMPANIES AND CONFIRMS IMMINENT RESUMPTION OF EXPORTS.

The State Oil Marketing Company (SOMO) announced on Tuesday that it has terminated all contracts and obligations with companies purchasing oil produced from the Kurdistan Region.

The company emphasized that resuming oil exports from Kurdistan would restore Iraq’s position as a primary source of oil for the thirsty European market. The company’s general manager, Ali Nizar Al-Shatri, said in a press statement: “What happened in the Kurdistan Region was a matter of understanding and establishing working mechanisms,” noting that “the law applies to everyone.”

He explained: “The federal Ministry of Oil and the Ministry of Natural Resources in the Kurdistan Region operate within a single framework, given that the oil produced is Iraqi oil. The uniqueness lies solely in the nature of the relationship between the regional government and the companies operating there.”

He added, “The federal government, the regional government, and the producing companies need to complete the budget law implementation mechanism, and advanced understandings have been reached in this regard.” He indicated that “efforts are ongoing to reach a final agreement that will allow the resumption of crude oil pumping to the Turkish port of Ceyhan and the commencement of exports.”

Al-Shatri continued: “The crude oil produced in the Kurdistan Region is not currently exported, but is consumed locally within the region. We are working in accordance with the 2025 budget law to convert the surplus quantities after local consumption into exports.” He pointed out that “the Oil Marketing Company has completed all its contracts and obligations with the purchasing companies and is ready to receive the quantities as soon as they are pumped by the producing companies and the regional government.”

He pointed out that “the resumption of exports will restore Iraq’s glory as a primary source for the European market, which is thirsty for this type of oil, especially in light of the Russian-European crisis and the absence of Russian supplies, as Iraqi oil is distinguished by its similarity in quality to Russian oil,” stressing that “so far, SOMO has not received any quantities of oil from the Ministry of Natural Resources in the region, and the contractual relationship remains between the ministry in Kurdistan and the producing companies.”
