[quote:ReVbo™:MV8xNzI0NTM4XzM5Njg5Mzk2XzZBMTU4OEE=] [quote:calin:MV8xNzI0NTM4XzM5Njg5MjU4XzRDNkU1MEI2] [quote:ReVbo™:MV8xNzI0NTM4XzM5Njg4OTE2XzdCNTMzMDMx] Incidentally, if I'm right and economic reform is what we've been waiting for, we've been hanging out waiting for a long time in vain, because according to the international law that Bremer violated by trying to impose economic reform on Iraq, nothing could have been done prior to our exit from Iraq because laws cannot be changed while a country is occupied. This part is a bit of speculation, but Chapter 7 sanctions, while not boots-on-the-ground occupation, is tantamount to a seige, which is a form of occupation, so if that's the case, nothing could have been done prior to June 27, which would explain why nothing got done when they first started talking about this in December 2012, and why they just now passed it out of the CoM. This would also explain Parliament's culture of apathy. For 10 years, other than some tinkering with some minor issues, there was almost nothing they could do because they were under occupation and then sanctions. If I knew my job was pretty much useless, I'd probably stop bothering to show up most of the time, too. [/quote] :clappa: POST OF THE MONTH!!! [/quote] My dad has been all over this, too. He just mentioned that he found something in his research about HCL being buried in this law yesterday. I can't find it, but he distinctly remembered it, and it would make sense for changes to oil contract law being just a small part of a general economic reform package. I'm tellin' ya. This is it, y'all. [/quote]

Iraq is rapidly becoming a force in world economics due to its oil reserves. What do you think the effects will be on the world economic stage. sk
