21st August, 2022
The leader in the coordination framework, Muhammad Al-Shabki, warned today, Sunday, of many figures appearing on the media, who put "poison in honey" as if they wanted a fight between the supporters of the framework and the current.
Al-Shabki told (Baghdad Today), "Those who push for confrontation must be confronted by the law, because we cannot reach the stage of fighting with partners."
On the different political parties and the existing crisis, Al-Shabki pointed out that “even if we disagree politically, the dialogue stage is the path that prevails between us. Therefore, we affirm that the next stage may witness a dialogue that pushes for a solution, especially since the coordinating framework gave the leader of the Al-Fateh Alliance Hadi Al-Amiri the full powers of dialogue with Al-Sadr.” LINK

In turn, former MP Mishaan al-Jubouri said, in a tweet commenting on al-Jabr's tweet, which was followed by Shafak News Agency, "If Governor Ammar al-Jabr fulfills his promise and reveals what he has and I take a similar decision and reveal everything I have, I am sure that the Sadrist revolutionaries will go to other headquarters."
Al-Jubouri pointed out that the revolutionaries "will not leave it (the headquarters) before overthrowing large heads, which will lead to a comprehensive change that will save Iraq from the grip of a tyrannical and corrupt group."
On May 19, a parliamentary source revealed the dismissal of Salah al-Din Governor Ammar Jabor al-Jubouri from his position by order of the Presidency of the Council of Ministers to the House of Representatives.
The source told Shafaq News Agency, "The reason for dismissal of Al-Jubouri came after the recommendation of the investigative committees in the Council of Ministers, which diagnosed the mismanagement of the province and the waste of public money, and accordingly the committees recommended in their report that the governor be relieved of his position."
On the same day, the Iraqi parliament voted, in today's session, to dismiss the governor of Salah al-Din Ammar Jabour al-Jubouri by an absolute majority. LINK

Sir: IMO-If true, this will surely be the beginning of the new United Iraq. This, if true will unite the Iraqi people and they will be in the streets in every town N-S-E & W with clinched fist demanding arrest more than they are doing today.
This would be the go ticket IMO to implement the RI sense all their bases have been covered and any attempt to swindle new funds will lead to immediate arrest.

Samson: Media Line: An Iraqi official bought real estate worth $ 100 million in Baghdad
20th August, 2022
A report by the Media Line newspaper revealed that real estate sales in Baghdad are witnessing an imaginary boom in prices, as the numbers in some areas of the Iraqi capital exceeded their counterparts in several Arab and European capitals, making it impossible for families to buy homes
The report stated that "the price of a square meter of land in the Yarmouk area reached 11,000 dollars, and the bids of officials on particularly desirable plots amounted to 16,000 dollars per square meter, while in other areas of the capital, such as Al-Jadriya and Al-Mansour neighborhoods, west of Baghdad, where there are many from the embassies, the price of a square meter exceeds 3 thousand dollars, while the price of a square meter in the Zayouna area, east of Baghdad, is 7 thousand dollars
"Such high prices have made it very difficult for families to buy homes. Therefore, many real estate developers have reduced the size of housing units to 100 square meters to make it affordable for everyone. About 70 percent of the 41 million Iraqis live in urban areas," he added
A close Iraqi government source said, "There is indeed a significant rise in the Iraqi real estate market, especially in the capital, Baghdad, the largest part of it due to the storage and laundering of funds by corrupt officials," while experts attribute this phenomenon to money laundering operations and the efforts of corrupt officials to keep their wealth as real estate assets instead. of cash in banks
The source explained that "many bank accounts containing large amounts of cash were seized," noting that "since the Iraqi economy is based on cash, purchase and sale contracts cannot be restricted, so corrupt officials resort to saving their money in real estate
One of the real estate brokers, called Abu Seif, said, "Over several years, one of the officials bought real estate worth more than 100 million dollars, which he obtained from the Iraqi government's money as a result of corruption and bribery
The owner of a real estate agency named Ali Aswad said, "The Yarmouk neighborhood, which includes the four streets, has been changed from a residential area to a commercial area. The houses there are very luxurious, they have been converted into restaurants, and one meter of them sold for $ 11, indicating that such restaurants are used for money laundering.
In addition to keeping the money looted from the Iraqi people in real estate that can be sold at any moment LINK
~~~~~~~~~~
Sir: IMO-Iraqi people will probably see 1 to 2 hundred trillion dinar recovered by the time all the corrupt are brought to justice! This amount is more than enough to strengthen the dinar but these numbers could easily be a lot more.
