Dr. Clarke Update Friday 2/17/17

DR. CLARKE: Remember 2 weeks ago, in our Jan. 31st blog post (LINK), when we said that "The Perfect Storm" was coming by the very end of February? Do you remember the movie, with George Clooney & Mark Wahlberg? (6-30-2000...true story of 10-28-1991 epic storm event)... they left the bay on a FISHING expedition, into the sea, on a perfectly calm, beautiful day, and within hours, (3) different massive storms converged into ONE massive, destructive storm, the likes of which, had never been seen before - EVER. THEY DIDN'T SEE IT COMING. IT WAS "UNPREDICTABLE", because it happened so FAST.....it was actually "ILLOGICAL". 

But in the end, there was Peace and Calm, with a Brand New Day at Sea, even though NOTHING, would EVER be the same again.

As a metaphor, In our View, this is what is about to take place, from  February 21-28, 2017 , and is already shaping up right NOW.

Frank26, Backdoc and More Late Friday AM 2-17-17

KTFA:

Jay:   I find it interesting that we are just hearing today, the first day of the Munich meetings that Abadi is going for one day only, Today.  Nothing  like waiting until the day of the meeting to announce his departure...hmmmm. Then an article comes out saying that the West side won't commence until Abadi gets back from a meeting with President Trump  in the US.  No mention of when Abadi comes to our home land. 

Frank26:  It is NOT new ................ Your W CC NOTES TOLD You .................. Do You honestly believe A will be in Germany for 3 days ? ........... Of course NOT !!!  lol 

Link to Wed.Night CC Notes 

Jay:  I have been chewing on that one in particular nugget from W CC waiting for the ink saying he is going there. With the hi hopes that it would only be 1 day because I love it when you are right

Boy Was I Wrong About This Place...  By Simon Black

Notes From The Field  By Simon Black
February 16, 2017    San Juan, Puerto Rico 
 
Boy was I wrong about this place...

In 1927, US Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes famously wrote that "taxes are what we pay for civilized society." 

This quote is enshrined at the Internal Revenue Service, and it's a rallying cry for people who constantly argue for higher taxes. 

Almost everyone completely misunderstands what he meant. 

First of all, tax rates in the United States were about 3.5% back in 1927, just a tiny fraction of what they are today. 

And Justice Holmes actually wrote that famous statement as part of a larger argument that taxes can sometimes penalize and discourage productive activity. 

People always seem to forget that part.

News, Rumors and Opinions Friday Morning 2-17-17

TNT:


StarChaser:  What keeps me in this for so long is viewing the " historical rates of the Iraqi Dinar ". Anyone not sure about this should Google this info. Iraq is producing roughly 4.6 million barrels of oil per day now. They cannot continue to have basically worthless currency and survive internationally. Look at what happened to their neighbor Kuwait.

Starchaser: Currently, Iraq is producing roughly 2 times the amount of oil that Kuwait is producing. Kuwait's Dinar value is roughly $3.50 -- that should let everyone know that Iraq can easily have a proposed value of $ 3.71 any day now. That should help anyone wondering if this is real.

Smitzi:  I called A Wells Fargo bank yesterday to ask what the xechnage rate for the VND was . She said she did not have access to screen any more but she knew the rates had been very good recently . She said she would have to call the central number to find the rates.  She called me back about ten minutes later in a completely different tone of voice and quoted me the old rate. They know something is up and she was obviously told to keep quite. Hang in there . We are close!

Highlights From "The Big Call" Thursday Night 2-16-17 by PinkRoses

Thanks PinkRoses for sending these to us.



Bruce:  Good Evening, everybody. Welcome to the Big Call. Today is February 16th, and we thought last Tuesday would be a good time for us the next few days. We still believe that. We are in good a position that a lot happened to get us to Tuesday and a lot happened to get to us where we are now. A lot has happened the last 24 to 48 hours.

Bruce:  What we heard is what we are going to call early exchanges on Vietnamese Dong.

A few weeks ago same type thing going on with the dinar. Some exchanges at some of the major banks with the dinar of what I called at the time with teaser rates.  They were done so the banks could increase their liquidity to handle the Basel 3 requirements.

So they needed additional funds so they could hit that liquidity in their banks. That went on primarily with customers that purchased dinar with those banks. They were contacted and asked if they wish to do an exchange at a lower rate for their customers at that time. The last couple of days same thing occur Tuesday on the Vietnamese Dong. Sort like a trial number #2. First on the dinar than now the dong.

larrykn says():(Reuters) If Islamic State is driven from its Iraqi stronghold of Mosul, it will switch tactics to wage an insurgency from mountains and deserts, a top Kurdish intelligence official has told Reuters.
 
Lahur Talabany, a senior figure in Kurdistan's counter-terrorism efforts, also expressed concerns that another group similar to the Sunni Muslim Islamic State could emerge to menace Iraq again if political leaders fail to secure reconciliation between sects.
 
"Mosul will get taken ... I think it is the asymmetric warfare that we need to be worried about," he said.
 
"Our jobs will become much more difficult. The army will take a rest a little, but it will be the job of security forces that will become more difficult."
 
Talabany said there were signs that Islamic State planned to shelter in the Hamrin mountains in the northeast, which could serve as a base for attacks on several provinces.
 
He cited about five attacks on security forces in Diyala province in the last month.
