    > I had recently heard someone else say that there was a government shut down with Pres. Clinton just before the Kuwaiti reval was consummated. So I started a little research this morning. I was always under the impression that Clinton was in office when the KWD RV occurred. To my surprise-not so. He may have ultimately been the benefactor, but not in office when the RV actually happened. Here's a short timeline of events: Iraq invaded Kuwait August 1990 and the Kuwaiti Dinar value dropped. Saddam was ousted in February 1991 and KWD revalued March 25, 1991.

    https://www.nytimes.com/1991/03/25/wo...its-banks.html

    >
    George HW Bush Presidential term January 20, 1989-January 20, 1993.

    Bill Clinton Presidential terms January 20, 1993-January 20, 2001.

    Here's a listing of the most recent US government shutdowns since Bush Sr.

    1990 October 5- October 9 for 4 days

    President George H.W. Bush vowed to veto any continuing resolution that was not paired with a deficit reduction package, and did so when one reached his desk. The House failed to override his veto before a shutdown occurred. Congress then passed a continuing resolution with a deficit reduction package that Bush signed to end the shutdown.

    1995 November 13 - November 19 for 5 days

    In the shutdown of 1995 and 1996 President Bill Clinton vetoed a continuing resolution passed by the Republican-controlled Congress. A deal was reached allowing for 75 percent funding for four weeks, and Clinton agreed to a seven-year timetable for a balanced budget.

    1995 December 16 - January 6, 1996 for 21days

    Subsequently the Republicans demanded President Clinton propose a budget with the seven-year timetable using Congressional Budget Office numbers, rather than Clinton's Office of Management and Budget numbers. However, Clinton refused. Eventually, Congress and Clinton agreed to pass a compromise budget.

    2013 October 1 -Ongoing

    Due to disagreement regarding inclusion of language delaying the Affordable Care Act,[11] the Government has not passed a funding bill. Negotiations have come to a stop and the United States federal government shutdown of 2013 is in progress.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Government_shutdown

    > This does not change my opinion of this investment at all. I previously was under the impression that Bush Sr. liberated Kuwait, lowered the KWD currency value and revalued shortly after Clinton took office in order to help out the Clinton administration. Clinton did eventually benefit from the KWD revalue, but it was after Bush Sr. had about two years with the KWD. I do recall that in the last couple years of Bush Sr's tenure, the economy started to rebound, but the political damage was done by then and he subsequently lost the next election to Tricky Bill.

    Part 1 Millionday Discussion

    [millionday] ok here we go here is some news - and first if i had a chance to show you what i had been working on like i have it to make sense -- would be better but anyway

    [millionday] here is some information on what a sovereign rating does and is for a country - the way that most of us would remember it would when ours was threatened

    [millionday] the us had threats or at least risk of our credit rating being lowered not too long ago and that is what they were talking about
    ...

    [millionday] so here is this ---- Sovereign ratings have become increasingly important as countries around the world tap the international bond markets.

    These credit ratings - issued to sovereign entities like national governments - take into account political risk, regulatory risk and other unique factors to determine the likelihood of a default.

    The three most popular issues of sovereign ratings are S&P, Moody's and Fitch.

    Since they were introduced in the early 1900's, sovereign credit ratings have had a turbulent history.

    Moody's and other ratings agencies were taken by surprise after the Great Depression caused 21 out of 58 nations to default on their international bonds between 1930 and 1935.

    And since then, more than 70 governments have defaulted at least once on their domestic or foreign currency debt. Where to Find Sovereign Ratings

    The most significant sovereign ratings are published by the three major credit rating agencies - Standard & Poor's, Moody's and Fitch.

    While there are also a number of smaller boutiques that offer ratings, these three agencies have the most influence over market decision makers. Investors can find sovereign ratings from these three ratings agencies using the following links:

    •Standard & Poor's Sovereign Ratings •Moody's Investor Services Sovereign Ratings •Fitch Ratings Sovereign Ratings

    [millionday] note -- notice before we move on a few things in this report --- that it is normally with the issue of bonds to use as a tool of their gain and trust in the country as in any credit rating

    [millionday] also notice that they are gathered from the country paying their bills with any credit rating as well

    [millionday] Ratings agencies use a variety of quantitative and qualitative methods to calculate sovereign ratings. But in a 1996 paper entitled "Determinants and Impact of Sovereign Credit Ratings", Richard Cantor and Frank Packer used a regression analysis to narrow the process down to six critical factors that explain more than 90% of the variation in credit ratings.

    1.Per capita income comes into play since a larger tax base increases a government's ability to repay debt, while it can also serve as a proxy for a country's political stability.

    2.Strong GDP Growth makes a country's existing debt easier to service over time, since that growth typically results in higher tax revenues and an improved fiscal balance.

    3.High inflation can not only signal problems with a country's finances, but also cause political instability over time.

    4.A country's external debt can be a problem if it becomes unmanageable.

    5.Countries with a history of defaulting are perceived to have a higher credit risk.

    6.More economically-developed countries are seen has less likely to default.

    [millionday] last part of the summary --- Sovereign ratings have many effects on countries around the world. Several studies have shown that better sovereign ratings are associated with lower spreads.

    In turn, these lower spreads equate to lower financing costs for countries issuing bonds. Cantor and Packer estimated in the aforementioned report that a single notch downgrade can raise these spreads by as much as 25%.

    The effects of these higher spreads and financing costs can include:

    •Inflation Risk. Central banks that print more currency to cover current and future debts risk causing inflation, which itself can lead to a number of economic problems.

    •Political Instability. Countries that are unwilling or unable to print more currency may undergo austerity measures to cut their costs, which can result in civil unrest. •Fewer Options. Central banks facing high borrowing costs may not find it as economical to provide stimulus packages or other growth incentives during difficult times.

    [millionday] now the reason i have brought this is because of the news reference and the upcoming meetings i will be reporting on throughout the next few days

    [millionday] so let me show you the report now -- A member of the Association of private banks and bank manager Ashur Sherwan Anwar Mustafa importance , for Iraq on a global sovereign rating .

    Mustafa said in his speech for the (morning) : " There are simple ways and mechanisms to get Iraq to this category, especially that all countries in the world dealing with the institutions of the international calendar ."

    [millionday] He said a member of the Association that " in order to deal rating agencies andinternational calendar with Iraq, must be monetary policy stable without fluctuations , and maintain the stability of cash and commitment to international conventions,

    noting that the current trend is going in the way of the signing of international treaties that give a guarantee to the investor , which is " mattress " for any organization evaluating an international assessment of the situation in Iraq in general backing and support of UN organizations .

    considered Mustafa that the sovereign rating important issue for the country and deal internationally, especially at the level of financial institutions, noting that any goods up to Iraq , the cost of shipping charges and export extra, because the absence of an international classification for him.

    [millionday] now we have committment to many many international conventions -- we also have many treaties and agreements with guarantees on debt

    [millionday] the benefit is financial and will lower their cost of doing business as it does for anyone -- as in interest rates - so as we see -- this is huge huge news

    [millionday] very very interesting and of course shows us where they are headed and where cbi is headed international !!!! brb with more

    [millionday] Committee of Economy and Investment parliamentary MP Nahida Daini inclusion of a paragraph in the law of the Ministry of Commerce include the opening of branches of the Department of Registration of companies in the provinces of economic and commercial activity .

    She Daini told the (morning) that the Ministry of Commerce is concerned party registration Acharkalt especially that Iraq now need to enter the investment companies to the provincial economic border to take its role in the development process.

    Pointing to the need for accounting firms lagging according to the law and to develop new regulations to reduce administrative corruption for companies involved in investment projects.

    They pointed out that the law of the Ministry of Commerce under discussion in the House of Representatives , and it is hoped that the positive changes happening in the work of the ministry.

    [millionday] so now is the time to open at the border for the trade to go on and they will be including the law for local imports and exports for a market

    [millionday] this ties directly in with what we saw last night saying that they changed the way that foreign investors will be able to get their visas and licensing and permits -- online and with the one stop shop they started working on about a year ago if i remember right but we read about it some time ago economy also

    [DT N AZ] but they need a currency to work with

    [millionday] this ties directly in with what we saw last night saying that they changed the way that foreign investors will be able to get their visas and licensing and permits -- online and with the one stop shop they started working on about a year ago if i remember right but we read about it some time ago

    [millionday] what this would mean is that they would pay fees to multiple ministries and also have contact with them by email and by internet

    [Domino] millionday This is great news although not something we question given the # of times we've seen it. I love it and of course love results (past tense) even more.

    [millionday] yes they need a currency to work with and a trad-able currency to take any part in the benefits of all of these things -- the credit rating is

    [millionday] we have seen it as goals -- not as action -- so this is much better smile

    [millionday] we knew that these things would be coming to light when they were ready and the isx was ready because of the direct effect it has on their stock market and also the markets that have contracts with them -- and the ball rolls

    [millionday] brb with more smile

    [Domino] millionday Can you say why it's better, it still seems to be worded as "need to"?

    [millionday] now if this doesnt make you smile -- check your pulse

    [millionday] Domino because now they are trying to get iraq to the point they have a credit rating -- among the ways are the things listed that i told you already had done and this is simple –

    this is what they said that makes it better to me >>>>>>>>>>>> " There are simple ways and mechanisms to get Iraq to this category, especially that all countries in the world dealing with the institutions of the international calendar ."

    He said a member of the Association that " in order to deal rating agencies and international calendar with Iraq, must be monetary policy stable without fluctuations

    [millionday] so they are saying that all the countries are already dealing with them in one way or another -- with trade agreements or conventions and also treaties -- so they are getting iraq a credit rating by using these points that they didnt have before iraq was released or these agreements could be recognized

    [millionday] make sense ? ok so here is this

    [DT N AZ] yes makes sense but the simple ways to part has no time table to it

    [millionday] he must have gotten distracted

    [cookie2] millionday It helped us understand -- TY

    [millionday] i am going to be bring more on it through the week -- it is just showing how close they are to breaking out into full market economy -- it doesnt have to be done but saves on interest rates and all the things we studied before

    [millionday] The Central Bank summoned company (Western Union financial services, Inc.) to discuss the company's work in Iraq. A statement from the Central Bank received (News Agency), a copy of: the Central Bank Governor Abdel Basset Turki Agency held a meeting with the company (Western Union financial services, Inc.) to discuss the company's future work in Iraq.

    Rouhani’s Moderation Welcomed
    By Sistani, Iraqi Clerics in Najaf

    By: Ali Mamouri for Al-Monitor Iran Pulse Posted on October 2.
    The victory of the moderate faction in the 2013 presidential elections in Iran has been welcomed by the Hawza of Najaf. The religious authorities as well as the instructors there had hoped that the radical policies of the preceding eight years would finally come to an end. The election results have already brought a reduction in tensions between Iranian government officials and the religious authorities in Najaf, who did not receive former Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. They refused to grant him an appointment during either of his two trips to Iraq. In contrast, the current foreign minister, Mohammad Javad Zarif, visited all four grand ayatollahs in Najaf on Sept. 9, shortly after taking office, on his first trip to Iraq.

    Summary :
    After shunning the Mahmoud Ahmadinejad administration, Ayatollah Ali Sistani granted Iranian foreign minister Mohammad Javad Zarif a meeting, which has been distorted by Iran’s hard-line Arabic media.
    Author: Ali Mamouri
    Posted on: October 2 2013

    News reports on the interactions between Iran and the United States are being closely followed in the Hawza in the hope that violence in the region might be brought under control. Such changes in policy — interpreted by instructors and students at the Hawza as a sign that the Iranian government is moving toward moderation and away from radicalism — have been warmly welcomed. In the past, the Hawza had criticized some of the Iranian government's radical policies, and in retaliation, Al-Kawthar, the state-owned Arabic-language network, broadcast programs in which the institution and its religious leaders were themselves strongly criticized.

    The support the new administration is enjoying outside and inside Iran, the outcome of its moderated policies, has been greeted negatively by the radical faction inside Iran. Upon Rouhani’s return to Tehran from the UN General Assembly gathering in New York, a mob of about 100 people attacked the president’s car. At the same time, Keyhan’s Arabic edition, which has close ties to the Principlists, and Al-Kawthar broadcast reports about the meeting between Zarif and Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani. According to their stories, Sistani considers the wise leadership of Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, to be the reason for the strength of the country's Islamic government and that all of Iraq's problems are because it lacks such leadership. In addition, Sistani called on everyone to take note of this fact and said that he prays every day for the leader of Iran.

    The broadcast of this story angered the members of the Hawza community. They called it an abuse and an immoral representation of the religious authorities and seminary schools. One instructor present at the meeting between Zarif and Sistani denied the accuracy of the story and briefly described what happened to Al-Monitor.

    According to him, “Ayatollah Sistani said to the foreign minister, 'I have read most of your book Mr. Ambassador, and I value your experience and consider you deserving of your position as the foreign minister.' Then he added that Zarif has a difficult road ahead of him in dealing with the nuclear issue and the sanctions and then emphasized the importance of complete transparency regarding the nuclear issue, especially in light of what he [Zarif] had said about its peaceful nature.”

    In addition, a source close to Zarif's office informed Al-Monitor that the foreign minister has not granted any interviews on his meeting with Sistani and that everything being attributed to him in reports and broadcasts is therefore false. Both Keyhan and Al-Kawthar reported the story without clearly identifying their sources. More important, the timing of the story — almost a month after the meeting took place and shortly after Zarif returned from the United States — has added to suspicions.

    There appear to be two reasons behind the media's actions. One is opposition to the moderate policies of the Hawza of Najaf in trying to tamp down religious conflicts, actions in direct contrast to the more radical policies of the Principlists in Iran. Part of this opposition is also to try to weaken Sistani's position in Iraq by attributing certain words to him, knowing that they will increase nationalist sensibilities among the Iraqi people. The second reason is to sabotage efforts by Rouhani to improve relations with important actors in the region and beyond, while essentially hoping for a continuation or return to the policies of the previous administration.

    Ali Mamouri is a researcher and writer who specializes in religion. He is a former teacher in Iranian universities and seminaries in Iran and Iraq. He has published several articles related to religious affairs in the two countries and societal transformations and sectarianism in the Middle East.

    Has Netanyahu Lost the Battle
    Over Nuclear Iran?

    By: Mazal Mualem for Al-Monitor Israel Pulse Posted on October 2.

    “Tragic” — this is the word Arieh Eldad chooses to describe the situation of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu after his Oct. 1 speech at the UN General Assembly.

    Summary :
    Right-wing ideologist Arieh Eldad criticized Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu: "He gave up on the Land of Israel, but he also understands that he lost the battle over the Iranian nuclear program."
    Original Title:
    Arieh Eldad: “We Missed the Opportunity for a Military Strike against Iran”
    Author: Mazal Mualem
    Posted on: October 2 2013
    Translated by: Aviva Arad

    Eldad, formerly a member of the Knesset from the Ichud Leumi party and a member of the Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee, argues that Netanyahu lost out on both ends: On one end he remains alone in the struggle to stop the Iranian nuclear program, and on the other end he missed the window of opportunity for a military strike on the nuclear facilities in Bushehr. He’s also disappointed that Netanyahu adopted the Israeli left’s program to divide the country in order to reach an agreement with the Palestinians.
