2010 - A YEAR OF TRANSFORMATION FOR THE WORLD AND FOR ASIA
An Address by Dominique Strauss-Kahn, Managing Director of the IMF
At the Asian Financial Forum
Hong Kong, January 20, 2010
As Prepared for Delivery
".............This means that many emerging market economies will be able to exit from crisis support measures sooner than the advanced economies—with monetary tightening generally preceding fiscal tightening.
The differing speeds in economic recovery have been reflected in the performance of financial markets. As you know, there has been a resurgence in capital flows to emerging markets, with Asia receiving a large part. These flows appear to be driven primarily by fundamentals, reflecting the favorable outlook for these economies. Expectations of future currency appreciation are also playing a role.
The return of capital to emerging markets is generally a positive development. Let us not forget that as the crisis unfolded, there was tremendous concern that these flows would cease altogether, or even reverse. Understandably, however, policymakers in recipient countries are concerned now with how to manage these flows—their impact on exchange rates, domestic demand, financial stability—and the danger of asset bubbles.
What tools can policymakers use to respond to surges in capital flows? In many countries, exchange rate appreciation should be the key response—especially in those where the exchange rate is undervalued based on medium-term considerations. Other policies include lowering interest rates, accumulating reserves, tightening fiscal policy and prudential policies in the financial sector. ..........."

FRANKIELOVESDINAR POST - One Dinar (TerryK Info)
CATCH-UP for NEW VIEWERS: TerryK said he and his team are watching some proprietary software (at a bank?) that was kicked into the "receive" mode to accept incoming Forex-related data about 40 minutes ago. Might be related to the RV, but nothing yet to confirm or dispute that. No rate or exchange date updates at this time either - just possible incoming data. He cannot provide a link, because he is apparently looking at triggers being squeezed on software that we don't have. We are waiting on further info from TerryK.
just to add TerryK says it is the IQD chart he is looking at. FWIW

ENORRSTE POST - Dinar Vets (The Next Step to Truth)
The Next Step to Truth
Now since posting this I have been fortunate enough, along with my partners at our forum, to add to this documented information. In fact the additional information is so powerful that each and every step confirms the prior one, and continues to build on the solid foundation of FACT that began this analysis. This section includes the one email in this whole document. As you will see as I proceed it is a powerful email and its content strongly suggests that it is legitimate.
What is “Rainbow” and is it relevant to the RV?”
I got a message from Highgrade in which he included an email that he had received earlier that day. In it is a strange translation from Arabic in which the term “rainbow” appears. Highgrade suggested that I do some research and then we might discuss it in chat.
I’ve decided to bring you all along with me as I show you the methodology I use to unravel strange documents. Hopefully by doing this you will all be encouraged to join me and we will uncover more “nuggets” of truth as this process continues. In any case I’m sure you will find it fun. Consider yourselves all Watsons to me, Sherlock Holmes.
I will admit to the following: on reading the PM from Highgrade I was dumbfounded at first. I even wrote him back and said something to this affect: “Where do I start? Is rainbow a thing or a person. I’m stumped. Help me out here!”
Then, 20 minutes and a martini later, I decided to see what I could do with this cryptic email in an attempt to find the truth behind the nuggets it contained.
Here is the email that he included in his message to me and which he asked me to research:
[Fact]
”Rainbow: symbolizing a rainbow connecting Iraq to US-the RV is completed
”Governor of Najaf, confirmed that the bombing of the rainbow of the latest terrorist
”Governor of Najaf, confirmed that the bombing of the rainbow of the latest terrorist goal to cause chaos and make media
15 January, 2010 07:28:00 15 January, 2010 07:28:0
”The governor of Najaf, Adnan al in a statement to the rainbow that the latest terrorist bombing in the city caused by a number of devices manufactured locally and aims to cause confusion and make a media and political.
“On the other hand he Zurfi to tighten security measures, including a comprehensive review of the work of the security services may include changing the leadership of some regions, as well as to prevent vehicles from entering certain areas and to identify special places for parking.
”Hassani assure the rainbow: the decline in the export of Iraqi oil caused by a region
”Between a member of the House of Representatives Hadi al-Hassani of the rainbow, the share of Iraq's oil in the fifties of the last century were narrow with lots of Saudi Arabia and Iran in terms of productivity, but wars that the policy pursued by the dictatorial regime and the policy of regional intervention led to the decline in the share of Iraq's oil should have been to Iraq today to issue a total of five million barrels a day.
“On the political position of the hidden and declared to Saudi Arabia from the overall process of political transition in the country; Hassani, the deputy pointed out that Riyadh is opposed to any project renaissance wakes up from the rubble of dictatorship and the ravages of war brought down the debt evidenced by the lack of Iraq's support for the result of the tyranny of unjust wars, as they look to their interests in the region look purely sectarian.”
[Analysis]
Now I have placed in red the items that are going to be relevant initially in our study of this strange email.
When I first look at any document I ask myself what data I can use to enhance my understanding. These two items stood out like banners. So I began with a simple Google search. The first was on the “Governor of Najaf”.
Among the links this is what I found most important. It is a press release from Iraq dated 6 May 2004:
[Fact]
http://www.iraqcoalition.org/transcripts/20040506a_zurufi.html
The relevant quote follows:
Governor Zurufi, a member of the Bani Hassan tribe, earned a degree in Islamic law at Alfik (ph) College, the Islamic jurisprudence college, in Najaf. He is the right man for the job at this time. A sports hero as a youth, Governor Zurufi showed his love of justice as the head of an anti-Saddam student organization. This led to his imprisonment and escape from Saddam's jails. He participated in the 1991 Iraq intifada and was eventually forced into exile. He returned to Najaf in April last year.[Analysis]
But the article above didn’t say where he went when he escaped Saddam’s regime. That answer comes from this link:
[Fact]
http://www.encyclopedia.com/doc/1G1-118361322.html
I only got the first few lines of this one without subscribing, but it was enough to keep me going!
May 23--NAJAF, Iraq -- His uncle was murdered this month, and his desk backs to a window encased in sandbags.
But fear does not seem to stalk Adnan al-Zurufi, the U.S.-appointed governor of Najaf province, a territory inflamed by the uprising triggered by rebel Shiite cleric Moqtada Sadr and his al-Mahdi militia.
"Of course I've been threatened," al-Zurufi said in English he honed during the time he lived in Chicago, from 1994 to 2001.
[Analysis]
I now knew I wanted to know more about this guy who somehow became the governor of Najaf and is related to “the rainbow”.
I kept up my search, tweeking the Google search line to find just another tidbit or two.
I found this from 25 May 2004:
[Fact]
http://windchimewalker.blogspot.com/2004_05_01_archive.html
This is a blog from a Detroit woman. Here is the relevant quote:
Adnan Alzurufi, a native of Najaf, was appointed last week by the Pentagon at a time when the United States is struggling to take control of the strategically important region and city of the same name. The southern city of Najaf is considered holy by Shi'ite Muslims.
In Detroit, Alzurufi's wife and children said Friday they were glad to hear of his appointment.
"I feel very proud," said his son Montadar, 16, one of Alzurufi's seven children. "But I do worry about" his safety.
Alzurufi said that during the 1980s as a student in his homeland, he organized anti-Hussein groups in opposition to the Iran-Iraq war. The ruling Baath Party jailed him for five years in Najaf and Baghdad, where he said his captors whipped him and used electrical shocks on his leg and groin.
In 1991, he escaped and took part in an uprising against Hussein after the U.S. invasion of Iraq during the first Persian Gulf War.
Alzurufi fled Iraq for Detroit in 1994, part of a large number of Iraqi Shi'ite Muslims who came to Michigan after Hussein crushed the uprising. In 1997, Alzurufi formed the Iraqi Uprising Committee to mobilize local Iraqis. In April 2003, he was one of a dozen exiles flown by the Pentagon to Iraq as part of rebuilding efforts.
[Analysis]
We are getting closer now to seeing that this person might be more important in the current affairs of Iraq that at first wouldn’t seem obvious. He clearly has been involved in the Iraqi situation from the earliest stages and has worked himself up through the ranks of American influence. It is safe to state that he is “one of us”.
Then I found this interesting blog link. Now blog links are given minimal credit in my mind unless they clearly indicate that they include items that I have already determined from other more reliable sources to be accurate. Then if there is a tidbit or two that can add information I will accept it, conditionally.

FRANK26 POST - KTF Missions 1/25/10
Good evening Family,
I am pressed for time and I apologize for that Family. Work has created less time in my life. This afternoon I had a meeting at my restaurant with seven businessmen of my city to discuss using the IQD as a vehicle to pay off our city’s deficit. As businessmen we do not wish to see our fair city be turned over to anyone to run it! I am pleased to say that after our meeting today much was learned and accomplished . Sometimes it takes the ability if not the strength to think outside of the box. I suggested that we take these dinars and put them in a 5013c that is already established and Christian based or in a Charitable Trust but certainly not to turn them over to the city politicians. It is a politician’s nature to find ways to spend money…….not to pay the bills that they have already made. I ask for your prayers on this subject Family because IMO…….if these prominent businessmen purchase a million dinars each ……..it would make a difference for our city. The goal is to hit 30 contributors to this project. I will report to you the progress so that you can maybe apply it to your city as well too. This idea was presented to our mayor at his inaugural dinner last week and he was impressed enough to send a representative.
It looks like there was no budget passed today……when there was supposed to be one. Somehow or another it’s not so surprising. They used the excuse that some bombings cancelled the parliament’s vote to evacuate the politicians. I doubt it. Especially when the bombings were later in the afternoon…….and they were meeting in the morning. They still don’t know how to lie……..very well. Will they vote on it tomorrow? IMO the odds are very high that they will for two reasons. Before they do anything they like to make everybody’s lives miserable by creating some type of a delay. So at least they have opened the door not to delay tomorrow………..because they delayed today. Secondly……..because the following day on Wednesday O will be doing his State of the Union speech. If an RI is in the works as intel is indicating then O’s speech should be heavily laced with verbiage important to you and I as IQD investors. If he mentions that they are a sovereign nation ………the common person listening would probably have that sentence go in one ear and out the other. But to you and I …….it would mean a lot. I have always said that it is the ransom they seek. The only way to get it is to raise the value of their currency. It certainly is not for them to fulfill CH7 requirements……..BECAUSE THEY HAVE ALL BEEN MET ALREADY! I have shared with you an area code………… and right now I want to reiterate the time frame we are considering. Our intel is very interested from the 29th to the 7th/8th of February. I will not reveal the mechanics of why we favor this time. Instead allow me to share an article with you.
واع / بغداد / ح.ب Conscious / Baghdad / h. B
5/1/20105/1/2010 5:18pm 5:18 pm
وافق مجلس الوزراء على استمرار الوزارت المنفذة للمشاريع الاستثمارية بالصرف على تللك المشاريع. The Cabinet approved the continuation of ministries implementing the investment projects being waged on the drainage projects.
وقال الناطق الرسمي بأسم الحكومة العراقية علي الدباغ في تصريح نقله مراسل ( وكالة انباء الاعلام العراقي / واع ) ان الموافقة على الصرف يكون ضمن الفترة التي تبدأ بتاريخ 31/1/2010 على حساب موازنة 2009 نظرا للضروف الطارئة والاستثنائية على ان يسجل الصرف على المشاريع الاستثمارية الجديدة He said government spokesman Ali al-Dabbagh told state reporter (news agency, Iraqi Information / conscious) the approval of the exchange rate is within the period beginning on 31/1/2010 at the expense of the 2009 budget because of unforeseen and extraordinary Dharov that record spending on investment projects New وان القرار داعا وزارة المالية لتنفيذ ماتقدم . Goodbye, and the decision of the Ministry of Finance to implement the foregoing.
This came out a few weeks ago and I have been keeping my eye on it. For now allow me to say that it falls within our time frame. There is one more document that I want to show you. I know that the MOP report has been out for awhile with a 1.13 three year test period for the exchange rate but I want you to look at amendment #2 because it is talking about a rate I do not recall . They even go as far as to call it the official exchange rate. A rate that should be less than $3.082. Not too sure how to interpret this ………it may be even old and I am not aware of it. But the printing was done on the 24th so I can’t help but to be curious and study this further.
http://www.mop-iraq.org/mopdc/index....pid=295&lng=en
BAMA gave us an article on resolution 661. This was signed on Nov. 17th, 2008 with both the US and Iraq agreeing. It was supposed to come to an end in Dec. 2008 but it didn’t they kept extending it. This is a strategic framework agreement. It’s almost like a plan that was in the making ……….and then derailed. It makes me feel that there is more that can be offered as a ransom than just CH7. Agreements that were made in the past need a reason to come true today. Kind of like their budget. This is the first budget that projects infrastructure rebuilding and growth. These projects will be null and void without the proper funds. Yes there has been a lot of money lent to Iraq and forgiven. But that along with their oil potential IMO……..is the strong foundation for the RI announcement. Yes they can go another year and remove the infrastructure projects by having the 2010 budget set at 1170. But it makes no sense because they would simply be repeating…….2009. Too much time, manpower and money has been spent to bring Iraq back into the world of recognition. Not only do they want their currency to be accepted ………but they as a people yearn to also be once again accepted by the world.
Due to my time I will share with you my interpretation of the book of Eli tomorrow. I found a lot of similarities between the writer’s theme and KTFM. You will be surprised the synopsis that I bring you……..so please go see it as soon as you can because I want to talk to you about it.
God bless you all Family and may you be happy as you fellowship with each other tonight. Please pray for my intel ……..which obviously I am not sharing today. I am receiving much of it that needs interpretation. As the days go by we will determine what we can share. For now let us hope for the budget tomorrow and pay attention to O on Wednesday with a special prayer starting on the 29th. My Christian love and Alohas.
KTF,
Frank

Especially when the bombings were later in the afternoon…….and they were meeting in the morning. They still don’t know how to lie……..very well. Will they vote on it tomorrow? IMO the odds are very high that they will for two reasons. Before they do anything they like to make everybody’s lives miserable by creating some type of a delay. So at least they have opened the door not to delay tomorrow………..because they delayed today. Secondly……..because the following day on Wednesday O will be doing his State of the Union speech. If an RI is in the works as intel is indicating then O’s speech should be heavily laced with verbiage important to you and I as IQD investors. If he mentions that they are a sovereign nation ………the common person listening would probably have that sentence go in one ear and out the other. But to you and I …….it would mean a lot. I have always said that it is the ransom they seek. The only way to get it is to raise the value of their currency. It certainly is not for them to fulfill CH7 requirements……..BECAUSE THEY HAVE ALL BEEN MET ALREADY! I have shared with you an area code………… and right now I want to reiterate the time frame we are considering. Our intel is very interested from the 29th to the 7th/8th of February. I will not reveal the mechanics of why we favor this time. Instead allow me to share an article with you.

وافق مجلس الوزراء على استمرار الوزارت المنفذة للمشاريع الاستثمارية بالصرف على تللك المشاريع. The Cabinet approved the continuation of ministries implementing the investment projects being waged on the drainage projects.
وقال الناطق الرسمي بأسم الحكومة العراقية علي الدباغ في تصريح نقله مراسل ( وكالة انباء الاعلام العراقي / واع ) ان الموافقة على الصرف يكون ضمن الفترة التي تبدأ بتاريخ 31/1/2010 على حساب موازنة 2009 نظرا للضروف الطارئة والاستثنائية على ان يسجل الصرف على المشاريع الاستثمارية الجديدة He said government spokesman Ali al-Dabbagh told state reporter (news agency, Iraqi Information / conscious) the approval of the exchange rate is within the period beginning on 31/1/2010 at the expense of the 2009 budget because of unforeseen and extraordinary Dharov that record spending on investment projects New وان القرار داعا وزارة المالية لتنفيذ ماتقدم . Goodbye, and the decision of the Ministry of Finance to implement the foregoing.
This came out a few weeks ago and I have been keeping my eye on it. For now allow me to say that it falls within our time frame. There is one more document that I want to show you. I know that the MOP report has been out for awhile with a 1.13 three year test period for the exchange rate but I want you to look at amendment #2 because it is talking about a rate I do not recall . They even go as far as to call it the official exchange rate. A rate that should be less than $3.082. Not too sure how to interpret this ………it may be even old and I am not aware of it. But the printing was done on the 24th so I can’t help but to be curious and study this further.
http://www.mop-iraq.org/mopdc/index....pid=295&lng=en
BAMA gave us an article on resolution 661. This was signed on Nov. 17th, 2008 with both the US and Iraq agreeing. It was supposed to come to an end in Dec. 2008 but it didn’t they kept extending it. This is a strategic framework agreement. It’s almost like a plan that was in the making ……….and then derailed. It makes me feel that there is more that can be offered as a ransom than just CH7. Agreements that were made in the past need a reason to come true today. Kind of like their budget. This is the first budget that projects infrastructure rebuilding and growth. These projects will be null and void without the proper funds. Yes there has been a lot of money lent to Iraq and forgiven. But that along with their oil potential IMO……..is the strong foundation for the RI announcement. Yes they can go another year and remove the infrastructure projects by having the 2010 budget set at 1170. But it makes no sense because they would simply be repeating…….2009. Too much time, manpower and money has been spent to bring Iraq back into the world of recognition. Not only do they want their currency to be accepted ………but they as a people yearn to also be once again accepted by the world.
Due to my time I will share with you my interpretation of the book of Eli tomorrow. I found a lot of similarities between the writer’s theme and KTFM. You will be surprised the synopsis that I bring you……..so please go see it as soon as you can because I want to talk to you about it.
God bless you all Family and may you be happy as you fellowship with each other tonight. Please pray for my intel ……..which obviously I am not sharing today. I am receiving much of it that needs interpretation. As the days go by we will determine what we can share. For now let us hope for the budget tomorrow and pay attention to O on Wednesday with a special prayer starting on the 29th. My Christian love and Alohas.

BB&T (Branch Banking & Trust) OFFERS MULTI-CURRENCY ACCOUNTS
TIDBIT:
I found this information chat on Dinar Vets, and felt it was definitely worth sharing here on DDT's. Apparently, BB&T (a bank out of North Carolina) offers bank accounts for different currencies. I haven't done much research on them yet, so just take this information and do your own research. Here are some posts from DV that will help you with your own research on them. It seems promising.

I read on bb&t's site that they offer these accounts and I emailed them about dinar and they said that they buy and sell dinar. Has anyone else looked into this?

Ya I have my Dinar account with them

BB&T stands for Branch Banking & Trust (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BB&T). They are based out of N.C. and were one of the smart banks that didn't collapse this past year. You can find them at http://www.bbt.com

Here is the email that was sent to me regarding the dinar in a bbt account.
We do sell/buy Iraqi Dinars. You do have to have an account with BB&Tand you would have to take the currency into the branch and they wouldbe able to help you. The currency is a collection item which means youwill not receive immediate credit. Please let us know if you have anymore questions.
Dancer:
I work in a BB&T building in Alabama stop and talk with the officer/manager of the bank on a regular basis. They house a lot of executives at this branch who by the way have invested in the dinar as well, and have been informed by the bank that there will not be a "bank" fee (just a fee for their currency vendor). Also, there will be no wait for it to be verified, it will immediately be deposited into your account (minus those fees for the currency vendor). The officer explained to me that they would not charge a fee because they were estactic to have our business and all our money (LOL).

Foreign Exchange Deposit Account Printable Version Foreign Exchange Deposit Accounts are interest-bearing accounts that can be set up to contain most major foreign currencies. These accounts are structured to be similar in many ways to money market accounts. A Foreign Exchange Deposit Account can enable you to:Hold and pool foreign currency receivables for future needs. Take advantage of higher interest rates that may be available in other currencies. Gain better control over cash flows. Create a hedge vehicle to protect against currency fluctuations. Reduce the risk of exchange rate losses when paying and/or receiving denominated payments.Fixed-rate time deposits are also available upon request in many foreign currencies.

Iraq signs final deal with oil giants Exxon Mobil, Shell
January 25, 2010 - 02:53:14
BAGHDAD / Aswat al-Iraq: Iraq’s Oil Ministry on Monday completed a deal with U.S. major Exxon Mobil and Anglo-Dutch giant Shell to develop production in West Qurna-1, the war-torn country’s second biggest field.
“Signing the deal with the Exxon Mobil and Anglo-Dutch aims to increase the production from 285,000 barrels-per-day to 2,325,000 barrels-per-day,” Oil Minister Hussein al-Shahrestani said during the siging ceremony, attended by Aswat al-Iraq news agency.
West Qurna-1 in southern Iraq has reserves of around 8.5 billion barrels, according to Oil Ministry figures. Exxon Mobil and Shell will receive 1.90 dollars per additional barrel extracted from West Qurna 1.
The deal was initially agreed on November 5, following a bid late June at Iraq’s first international oil auction since the industry was nationalised in 1972.
A second auction in December saw Iraq award contracts to foreign majors including Russia’s Lukoil, which will work with junior partner StatoilHydro of Norway to develop the neighbouring West Qurna-2 field. The companies are expected to complete that deal on Saturday, Jihad added.
West Qurna-2, with known reserves of 12.9 billion barrels, lies west of the equally enormous Majnoon field, which was auctioned in December to Shell and Malaysia’s Petronas.
At 115 billion barrels, Iraq has the world’s third-largest proven oil reserves, behind only Saudi Arabia and Iran. Oil sales provide 85 percent of government revenues.
Despite accusations that the United States led the 2003 invasion of Iraq to grab its oil wealth, Exxon Mobil was the only U.S. major to have been awarded a contract in the two auctions last year.

“Signing the deal with the Exxon Mobil and Anglo-Dutch aims to increase the production from 285,000 barrels-per-day to 2,325,000 barrels-per-day,” Oil Minister Hussein al-Shahrestani said during the siging ceremony, attended by Aswat al-Iraq news agency.
West Qurna-1 in southern Iraq has reserves of around 8.5 billion barrels, according to Oil Ministry figures. Exxon Mobil and Shell will receive 1.90 dollars per additional barrel extracted from West Qurna 1.
The deal was initially agreed on November 5, following a bid late June at Iraq’s first international oil auction since the industry was nationalised in 1972.
A second auction in December saw Iraq award contracts to foreign majors including Russia’s Lukoil, which will work with junior partner StatoilHydro of Norway to develop the neighbouring West Qurna-2 field. The companies are expected to complete that deal on Saturday, Jihad added.
West Qurna-2, with known reserves of 12.9 billion barrels, lies west of the equally enormous Majnoon field, which was auctioned in December to Shell and Malaysia’s Petronas.
At 115 billion barrels, Iraq has the world’s third-largest proven oil reserves, behind only Saudi Arabia and Iran. Oil sales provide 85 percent of government revenues.
Despite accusations that the United States led the 2003 invasion of Iraq to grab its oil wealth, Exxon Mobil was the only U.S. major to have been awarded a contract in the two auctions last year.

US EMBASSY IN BAGHDAD LOOKING FOR FACEBOOK FRIENDS
By CHELSEA J. CARTER

BAGHDAD The U.S. Embassy in Baghdad is looking for Iraqi friends on Facebook.
The embassy launched the page Thursday with the aim of reaching out to Iraqis who want to learn more about American culture and society, the latest step by the State Department to boost interest in Iraq's burgeoning online culture and promote Web entrepreneurship.
The State Department has organized a number of high-profile visits to Iraq in recent months by top executives from Google, Twitter, AT&T and others. Recently, the embassy assisted in setting up a YouTube channel for the Iraqi government.
The Facebook page launch came the same day U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton made a speech about Internet freedom and its place in U.S. foreign policy. The embassy rolled out the page after a two-month test run on Facebook, said Philip Frayne, an embassy spokesman in Baghdad.
"We didn't get 2 million fans," he said. "The natural audience for embassy Facebook pages is not enormous."
But by late Thursday, the page had more than 800 fans - nearly matching the number of Facebook fans of the U.S. Embassy in London.
More than 170 U.S. diplomatic missions around the world have Facebook pages, according to the State Department.
Chief among the Baghdad page's attractions is the "English Language Corner" where Iraqis can learn how to use English-language expressions such as "once in a blue moon."
In the coming weeks, Frayne said the page will spotlight American music, sports and holidays.
Anyone can post questions and comments on the page, though it is monitored for inappropriate content, Frayne said.
"If it is pornographic or inciting violence, we have the ability to take it down," he said.
So will the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad follow up with a Twitter account in a country where cellular telephone service is routinely spotty and Internet access often nonexistent?
"I don't know," Frayne said. "Cell phone coverage in Iraq is not great."
Under former dictator Saddam Hussein, Internet access was limited to just one provider, and e-mail and phone calls were monitored and censored by the Ministry of Communications and security agencies.
After Saddam was toppled in the 2003 U.S.-led invasion, dozens of wireless Internet providers started business and hundreds of Internet cafes were opened in the capital, Baghdad, and other provinces.
While Internet coverage is relatively limited thanks in large part to routine power outages and limited provider availability, the number of Iraqis accessing the Web has been increasing at a rapid rate.
