Shredd:     This is all about the need for Iraq to be diversified in its outputs. Agriculture is a big one and as we saw last week in the marsh articles, the land continues to be restored to produce. When Iraq is more diversified, it will be able to financially survive the swings in the oil prices.

 [tlm724] Shredd I agree with your comments let me show them
 
Shredd = This is all about the need for Iraq to be diversified in its outputs. Agriculture is a big one and as we saw last week in the marsh articles, the land continues to be restored to produce. When Iraq is more diversified, it will be able to financially survive the swings in the oil prices.
 
[tlm724] heres my take 
 
[tlm724] the demands of the International Monetary Fund of Iraq to agree to lend him "do not constitute conditions" but a vision to address the economic crisis
 
[tlm724] so this is saying it's a vision not set conditions per se
 
[tlm724] well lets look at it this way, IF Iraq wants the loans they must prove themselves worthy no ?
 
[cstacy] right
 
[tlm724] the IMF has set conditions no matter what this says
 
[cat] uh huh
 
[tlm724] Iraq is striving to accept article 8 and there are conditions to that
 
[tlm724] over the last several months the IMF has indeed set condtions as has the World Bank
 
[tlm724] so with that said I believe Iraq is at a crossroads, they have to make certain decisions regarding the state of their economy as Shredd pointed out
 
[tlm724] it's so critical and again they must prove themselves worthy of continued international support
 
[tlm724] the IMF and the World Bank aren't going to loan Iraq more moeny if that money is going to slip out the back door
 
[tlm724] there has to be certain safeguards in place first, guarantees if you will of their investment
 
[tlm724] and it is an investment even if it is loans Iraq will have to pay it back at some point right Shredd ?
 
[Shredd] exactly and a lender won't lend if they didn't believe in or trust repayment
 
[tlm724] right Shredd ! ty
 
[tlm724] we know the IMF has taken lead in their economy and we know the UNDP has taken the lead on funds recovery and corruption
 
[tlm724] so if Iraq can come together politically and I pray they do, then we will have a more favorable (stable) atmosphere for continued economic growth and knowing these 3 letters agencies are there to hold Iraq's hand gives me great hope
 
tlm724:      Just want to show this article from the 11th:
