In a grave
conspiracy against the Iraqi economy, Minister of Finance Bayan
Jabr Solagh exploited his position and influence over the Iraqi
Central Bank by exchanging billions of dinars in
counterfeit Iraqi currency for American dollars.
The details,
which were leaked from within the corridors of the Ministry of Finance, are
that the Supreme Islamic Iraqi Council [Iraq's most powerful political party 
] had for a time
transported by truck, large sums of counterfeit Iraqi currency printed in Iran
into Iraq, to the Iraqi Ministry of Trade, and that this counterfeit currency
was then replaced with American dollars.
It's noteworthy
that during the time of Saddam’s regime, the Supreme Council - with the
cooperation of the Kurdish parties - flooded the Iraqi market with counterfeit
currency, which entered the country from Iran into northern Iraq. From there it
was distributed to the rest of Iraq's cities.
Since he assumed
office, Finance Minister Sulagh has been dogged with
accusations of money laundering, and when documents emerged proving his guilt,
he quickly had the evidence destroyed by staging an "accidental" fire
at Iraqi Central Bank building.

Sulagh is also involved with the smuggling of
rare Iraqi antiquities, shown in part by the arrest by Italian
authorities of his son Muhammad, who does business with elements of the Italian
mafia.
Sulagh and the Supreme Council behave as though
the Ministry of Finance is the property of the Party rather than an Iraqi
ministry, which is why the Finance Ministry employs so many members of the
Council, most of whom hold forged college degrees and who were most recently
mere militia members working for Iran.
The situation at
the Ministry of Finance, which is responsible for handling billions and
billions of dollars, is extremely grave. Given the lack of accountability and
oversight, chaos permeates the business affairs of the state. The fact is that
every day, the nation's money supply is subject to looting and robbery by Sulagh and other members of the Supreme Council - and by
extension so are the rest of the ministries, which operate under the same type
of administrative corruption and theft.

I so admire the
writings of Khadir Taahar!
This writer raves with such frankness and clarity, and never shies away from
shocking the reader with his contrarian beliefs - whether he (the reader) be
left-wing, right-wing or independent. For him, all that matters is that the
reader be an Iraqi. Why? Because regardless of their religious denominations or
particular beliefs, Iraqis are uncomfortable with the international brand known
as the “United States of America.”

To say: “They are
uncomfortable” in a polite and civilized way is not to say: “They hate or are
resentful,” since I don’t wish to annoy Khadir Taahar - who is more American than the Americans and even
more than Bush, Cheney, Rice or Gates. He is more part of the American
intelligence apparatus than the men of CIA and more Jewish than the Jews
(remember his Kitabat article from April 15th 2007,
in which he called for establishing friendly relations with Israel so that it
could take part in rebuilding Iraq!)
I like the work
of this writer because he isn’t ashamed or embarrassed to express his ideas and
political views clearly and honestly and he isn’t afraid of critics of his
writings. Nor does he feel the need to respect the feelings of other Iraqis,
who take umbrage at his favorite leaders, the Americans, who have inflicted
death, destruction and ruin upon them in the service of Israel and her future
security, and at their hands of Washington’s creation, the terrorists, who came
from abroad at the behest of their [Iraqi] allies and advisers from the former
regime.
