Absence of U.S. delegation behind delayed meeting with Iranians – spokesman
Baghdad - Voices of Iraq
Friday , 07 /03 /2008 Time 3:33:53
Baghdad, Mar 7, (VOI) – The absence of the U.S. delegation was behind the postponement of a meeting scheduled to be held with the Iranian side, the Iraqi government spokesman said on Friday.
"Representatives from the Iraqi government have already met with the Iranian delegation that arrived in Baghdad for these talks but for unknown reasons the U.S. side did not attend the meeting," Ali al-Dabbagh told Aswat al-Iraq – Voices of Iraq – (VOI), adding the Iranian delegation "was ready for the talks."
The fourth round of U.S.-Iranian talks on Iraq was supposed to be convened on Thursday but was cancelled after the Iranian delegation arrived in Baghdad and the U.S. side did not show up.
"The Iraqi government hopes the current UN Security Council meetings and the sanctions planned to be imposed on Iran would not reflect on the U.S. will to attend the talks on the Iraqi affairs," Dabbagh said.
The UNSC on Monday planned to impose sanctions on Iran due to its rejection to stop its uranium-enriching activities within its nuclear program. The third package of sanctions involved an embargo on trade exchange with Tehran over commodities of dual military-civilian use.
"The Iraqi government is working out a new date for Iranian-U.S. meetings on Iraq," Dabbagh noted.

Islamist Website Allegedly Under Pressure From U.S. Intelligence
No. 1860 - March 5, 2008 -
The Islamist website http://www.al-farooq.net/ (currently hosted by SoftLayer Technologies Inc., Dallas, TX, USA) claimed in a message to its subscribers posted February 27, 2008, that U.S. authorities had contacted both the website administrator and its U.S. host to pressure them to remove jihad content, saying that if they do not, the site will be shut down. The authenticity of the message could not be validated by MEMRI.
The following is a translation of the message and a follow-up report.
"Elimination [of Jihad Material] from the Site Cannot Eliminate [Jihad] from Our Hearts"
The message from the website administrator to its subscribers read: "We decided to remove the jihad sections because the [site] administration and its hosting company... received a letter from the American intelligence [agency indicating that] the site contains topics which, as usual, worry the American intelligence [agency]. The letter gave the site administration two options: [Either the agency] takes the site off the main host, 'Data Center' (i.e. SoftLayer), which is located in the USA, and reports it to the intelligence agency in our city, or we eliminate those jihad topics and close the [jihad] sections [on the website]. We had no choice but to accept the second option, to ensure the continuation of our communication with you... [You should know, however,] that eliminating [jihad content] from the website's sections cannot eliminate [jihad] from our hearts..."
Jihad Material Remains On Website; Changes Are Cosmetic
However, a review of the content of http://www.al-farooq.net/ after the supposed removal of jihad content shows that the changes made by the site administration are merely cosmetic. While the site no longer includes designated jihad sections, it is still saturated with jihad-promoting material.
For example, communiqués by jihad groups remain in supposedly non-jihad sections, such as the communiqué by the Al-Fath Al-Islami Brigades (the military wing of Hamas Al-Iraq) announcing that attacks against U.S. forces in Iraq would be stepped up in solidarity with the Palestinians. The communiqué is now posted in the "General Islamic Subjects and Stories" section on www.al-farooq.net. In addition, a lecture by Abu Mus'ab Al-Zarqawi praising jihad has been posted in a forum section called "Islamic Audios & Videos,"[ii] while a biography of and lectures by Abdallah Azzam have been incorporated into the "General Audios & Videos" section.[iii]

Oil prices spike to record $105.10
By PABLO GORONDI Associated Press Writer
Article Launched: 03/06/2008 03:19:32 AM EST
A car goes past a pair of gas stations posting competing prices for cash and credit purchases Thursday, March 6, 2008, in Seattle. Gas prices extended their advance toward record levels on Thursday. The national average price of a gallon of gas rose 0.7 cent overnight to $3.185, according to AAA and the Oil Price Information Service. Gas prices are following oil higher, and are expected to peak this spring well above last May's record of $3.227 a gallon. ((AP Photo/Elaine Thompson))Oil prices hit a record $105.10 a barrel Thursday, a day after a surprise drop in U.S. crude supplies and a decision by OPEC not to boost production.
Prices gave up some ground by midday trading in Europe. Light, sweet crude for April delivery was still up 11 cents to $104.63 a barrel in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange.
On Wednesday, the April contract had jumped $5 to settle at a record $104.52 a barrel and later rose to $104.95 in post-settlement electronic trading.
Earlier this week, oil prices broke the previous inflation-adjusted price record of $103.76, set in 1980 during the Iran hostage crisis.
In London, Brent crude fell 21 cents to $101.43 a barrel on the ICE Futures exchange.
"The primary factor causing the surge in oil prices is the surprising drawdown in crude inventories, which caused traders to really react quite dramatically," said Victor Shum, an energy analyst with Purvin & Gertz in Singapore.
Most analysts had expected the U.S. Energy Department's Energy Information Administration to report oil stocks rose last week for the eighth straight time. Instead, the stocks fell 3.1 million barrels.
In Vienna, the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries said Wednesday it would hold production levels steady, at least for now. OPEC ministers cited falling demand in announcing their decision to hold production steady.
The EIA report and OPEC announcement fed a new frenzy of investing

in oil futures, which have risen to new inflation-adjusted records this week as the falling dollar drew investors to the market.
"Five dollars is an incredible gain," Shum said. "The overall oil market fundamentals are supportive of strong oil prices but not at this level, above $100. I would expect some profit taking to put a temporary halt to this rather large surge in pricing."
The dollar, meanwhile, fell to a new low against the euro, with the EU's shared currency climbing to $1.5329 before dropping back slightly. The euro set its previous high mark of $1.5302 on Wednesday.
Analysts noted that U.S. oil inventories are at historical highs despite last week's decline in crude supplies. Meanwhile, demand for gasoline is falling, and several forecasters have cut their oil demand growth predictions for this year.
Traders also worried about the escalating of tensions between oil producing countries in Latin America. Colombia's weekend attack on leftist rebels hiding in Ecuadorean territory has sparked a growing crisis as Venezuela moved tanks and soldiers to the Colombian border Wednesday. Ecuador said Monday it had sent 3,200 soldiers to its border with Colombia.
In other Nymex trading, heating oil futures fell 1.04 cents to $2.9327 a gallon (3.8 liters) while gasoline prices lost 0.63 cent to $2.6358 a gallon. Natural gas futures added 3.9 cents to $9.78 per 1,000 cubic feet.

وزارة النفط تدرس تفاصيل 70 عرضا من الشركات العالمية للاستكشاف وتطوير الحقول Oil Ministry studying details of an offer from 70 international companies to explore and develop fields
شؤون سياسية - 07/03/2008 Political affairs - 07/03/2008
بغداد – واشنطن – الملف برس Baghdad - Washington - Portfolio Press
تبحث الحكومة العراقية موضوع تطوير حقول نفطية عراقية جديدة مع شركات نفط اميركية واوروبية في شمال وجنوب العراق ، كما قال مسؤول في وزارة النفط العراقية . The government is deliberating on the subject of Iraqi oil field development new Iraqi oil companies with American, European, in the north and south of Iraq, as the official in the Iraqi Oil Ministry. وقال عاصم جهاد المتحدث باسم الوزارة ، ان العراق يأمل بالتوصل الى اتفاقات ستساعد في الوصول الى اهدافه في انتاج النفط الخام – ينتج العراق حاليا مليونين وثلاثمائة الف برميل يوميا – بزيادةا بمقدار خمسمائة الف برميل يوميا عما كانعليه الحال قبل عدة اشهر . He said Assem Jihad, spokesman for the ministry, that Iraq hopes to reach agreements would help in reaching its objectives in the production of crude oil - Iraq currently produces two million and three hundred thousand barrels a day - Bziadha by five hundred thousand barrels a day from Kanalih case several months ago.
وكان العراق في السابق احد اهم دول المنطقة صناعيا وزراعيا واقتصاديا – كما تقول صحيفة النيويورك تايمز – ولكن العقوبات الدولية وسنوات من الحرب مع ايران دمرت معظم قاعدته الاقتصادية وتركت العراق يعتمد بشكل كبير على البترودولارات . Iraq had previously one of the most important countries in the region industrially and agriculturally and economically - according to The New York Times - but international sanctions and years of war with Iran, destroyed most of the economic base and left Iraq relies heavily on Alpetrodolarat.
وقد ادت النزاعات العسكرية التي مر بها العراق بدورها الى تعويق تطوير الانتاج النفطي والتي بلغت عند السعودية اكثر من تسعة ملايين برميل يوميا وايران التي تنتج قرابة اربعة ملايين برميل يوميا، بحيث ابتعد العراق كثيرا عن الانتاج في اطار مستويات احتياطاته الكبيرة من النفط وحاجاته من العوائد النفطية . The military conflict in Iraq over which in turn hindered the development of oil production, which amounted to Saudi Arabia when more than nine million barrels per day and Iran, which produces about four million barrels a day, so far away from Iraq under the production levels of large reserves of oil and needs of the oil revenues .
وقال جهاد ان العراق يخطط ويأمل ان ينتج ستة ملايين برميل يوميا بحلول سنة 2015 من النفط الخام . Jihad said that Iraq plans and hopes to produce six million barrels per day by 2015 from crude oil. ورفض جهاد التعريف بالشركات النفطية الاجنبية التي يتم التفاوض معها والتي طلب منها تقديم عروضها التقنية لان الصفقات لم تكتمل بعد . Jihad rejected the definition of foreign oil companies that are negotiating with them and asked them to submit their offers because of technical transactions is not yet complete. ولكن في لقاءات سابقة – اجرتها النيويورك تايمز – وصف مسؤولون عراقيون انهم اجروا في شهر شباط مباحثات مع مسؤولين من شركات شيفرون واكسون وموبيل وشيل وتوتال . But in previous interviews - conducted by The New York Times - described the Iraqi officials that they conducted in the month of February will hold talks with officials from the companies, Chevron, Exxon, Mobil and Shell and Total.
ولكن الناطق باسم وزارة النفط العراقية اشار الى ان الوزارة اختارت شركات محددة بسبب معلوماتها عن حقول النفط العراقي وخبرتها في ادارة تطوير المشاريع الكبيرة . But spokesman for the Iraqi Oil Ministry pointed out that the ministry chose companies because of specific information on Iraqi oil fields and expertise in managing large development projects.
وأضاف ان المفاوضات في جولتها الثانية مستمرة ؛ وتوقع انه من المؤمل ان تشهد نهايتها في هذا الشهر . He added that negotiations in the ongoing second round; expected it hoped to see the end of this month.
واشارت مصادر عراقية نفطية ان اختيار هذه الشركات ، استند على خبرتها الادارية ودراساتها عن حقول النفط ومشورتها التكنولوجية ، في حين سيقدم العراق مستلزمات التنفيذ والايدي العاملة . Sources Iraqi oil that the selection of these companies, based on the administrative experience and studies on the oil fields and technological advice, while Iraq will provide implementation requirements and manpower.
وتقول النيويورك تايمز ، انه بالرغم من الاحتياطي النفطي العراقي الكبير – الذي يزيد على المائة بليون برميل – فقد ترددت شركات النفط العالمية في الاستثمار فيه بسبب قلة الوضوح بين السياسيين العراقيين حول كيفية تطوير الصناعة النفطية وكيفية المشاركة في العوائد ، كما ساهم العنف المستشري في العراق في ثني الكثير من المستثمرين عن العراق . According to The New York Times, that in spite of the large Iraqi oil reserves - which more than one hundred billion barrels - the international oil companies reluctant to invest because of lack of clarity among politicians on how to develop the Iraqi oil industry and how to participate in the proceeds, also contributed to widespread violence in Iraq discourage many investors from Iraq.
واعترف جهاد بان الشركات النفطية ترددت عن الاستثمار في تطوير الحقول النفطية العراقية بسبب الظروف الامنية . He admitted that the Jihad oil companies reluctant to invest in the development of Iraqi oil fields because of security conditions. وكشف المسؤول النفطي العراقي ان وزارة النفط تدرس تفاصيل 70 عرضا للاستكشاف وتطوير الحقول مقدم لها من الشركات العالمية . The Iraqi oil official disclosed that the Ministry of Oil studying details of a 70 exploration and development fields provider of international companies.
وتشير النيويورك تايمز ايضا الى ان البرلمان العراقي لم يوافق لحد الان على قانون النفط الذي سيحدد كيفية توزيع عوائد النفط العراقي ، ولكن مسؤولا كرديا وصل الاربعاء الى بغداد ، قال انه بالرغم من انهم لم يطلعوا على تفاصيل هذه المباحثات فلا يرى انه من المناسب ان تعارضها الحكومة الكردية فوريا . According to The New York Times also noted that the Iraqi parliament had not yet agreed on the petroleum law that will determine how to distribute the proceeds of Iraqi oil, but Kurdish officials arrived Wednesday to Baghdad, said that although they did not learn the details of the discussions felt that it was not appropriate that contradicts government Kurdish immediate. وقد اغضب الاكراد قادة السنة والشيعة في نهاية السنة الماضية حينما وقعوا عقودا لاستكشاف وتطوير النفط مع شركات دولية Kurdish leaders have angered Sunnis and Shiites at the end of last year when it signed contracts for the exploration and development of international oil companies

عبدالجبار أحمد الربيعي Abdul Jabbar Ahmed Al-Rubaie
من المؤسف القول ان قيادتنا السياسية ووزارة المالية لم تتمكن من ايقاف التجاوز علي حقوق المتقاعدين بإصدارهم القانون رقم 69 لسنة 2007 الذي امتد اربع سنوات. It is regrettable to say that the political leadership and the Ministry of Finance have not been able to stop the overrun on the rights of retired issuing Act No. 69 of 2007 which spanned four years. منذ عام 2004 ونحن نطالع في صحافتنا اليومية والاسبوعية والمحطات الفضائية عن قيام وزارة المالية واللجان المتخصصة فيها بدراسة موضوع رواتب المتقاعدين بهدف ايقاف التجاوز علي حقوقهم التقاعدية والمحنة التي وضعهم فيها النظام السابق الذي لم يفلح في معالجة اوضاع تلك الشريحة النبيلة التي اعطت الي الوطن الشيء الكثير واثمن ذلك الشيء العمر الذي قضي في بناء الوطن نظرا لما تحمله تلك الطبقة من قيم ومثل عليا. Since we are in 2004 and reading in our newspapers daily, weekly and space stations on the Ministry of Finance and specialized committees are studying the subject of salaries of retirees aim to stop waive their rights to pensions and the plight of their status by the previous regime, which has failed to address the situation of those noble tranche, which has given the country a lot and the most precious thing That old thing, who died on the nation-building since endured such class of the values and ideals. باسم تلك الطبقة نناشدكم وكذلك نناشد اللجان التي كلفت بمهمة دراسة رواتب المتقاعدين والتي فشلت في توصياتها عندما جاءت بالقانون رقم 69 لسنة 2007 المشار اليه اعلاه. Appeal to you on behalf of the class as well as appeal committees tasked with studying the salaries of retirees, which failed in its recommendations when it came to Act No. 69 of the year 2007 referred to above.
يا سادتي الافاضل O distinguished gentlemen
نناشدكم ما دمتم تنشدون العدل والعدالة التي جئتم من اجلها للحكم بأخذ المقترح الذي نضعه بين اياديكم والذي يتسم بالبساطة وعدم التعقيد (علي الرغم من انه لم يأخذ بالحسبان حالة التضخم السائدة بنظر الاعتبار الذي ولد ازمة خانقة بسبب ارتفاع اسعار السلع والخدمات وما ترتب عليها من آثار كان نتيجتها انخفاض القوة الشرائية للعملة خاصة وانها مرتبطة بالدولار الذي اخذ يتهاوي منذ فترة طويلة مما يستدعي والحالة هذه تدخل الدولة للحد من تأثيرات هذا التضخم باعتباره مؤشراً خطيراً وما يترتب عليه زيادة الاعباء علي المواطنين ومنهم ذوو الدخل المحدود من المتقاعدين) واظن ان اخواني المتقاعدين سيسامحونني لما توصلت اليه في احتساب الراتب التقاعدي لهم.لاني اخذت بنظر الاعتبار الظروف الحالية الصعبة التي يمر بها وطننا العزيز ولعلمي المسبق بأن طبقة المتقاعدين هي طبقة الصابرين وان الله مع الصابرين. Appeal her soul as long Tencdon of fairness and justice that they come from the proposed rule, which keep taking between hands, which is simple and non-complex (although it did not take into account the situation prevailing inflation into account, which was born crisis raised because of the high prices of goods and services and its implications was resulted in lower purchasing power of the currency especially as they are linked to the dollar, which is falling apart for a long time, which calls for state intervention this situation to reduce the impacts of this as an indication of serious inflation and the consequent increase the burden on citizens, including low-income retirees), and I think that the brothers reached for retirees Sisamehonni in the calculation of pension to them. because I took into consideration the current difficult conditions experienced by our dear and scientific advance that the ozone layer is retired steadfast and Allah is with the steadfast. استسمحكم العذر بالقول ان افضل طريقة لاحتساب الراتب التقاعدي للموظف يجب ان تكون محسوبة علي اساس حفظ كرامة الانسان خلال الايام القليلة الباقية من عمره المديد إن شاء الله وباختصار يمكن القول انه من غير المعقول ان يحسب الراتب التقاعدي وفق حسابات اللجان التي توصلت اليها في القانون والذي احتسب بأقل من مستوي سد الرمق للمتقاعد وعائلته. Let excuse by saying that the best method for the calculation of employee pension should be calculated on the basis of preserving human dignity during the few remaining days of his life prolonged God willing In a nutshell, it is unreasonable to calculate pension accounts as commissions findings in the law, which the referee less than the level of the dam survival retired and his family.
ولا نبالغ اذا قلنا ان الراتب التقاعدي الحالي مؤشر خطير سيكون مردوده سلبا علي العاملين حاليا في دوائر الدولة في الوقت الحاضر وسيتعاملون من خلال وظائفهم وفق المعيار الذي يسد لهم احتياجاتهم في المستقبل قبل احالتهم علي التقاعد مما سيدفعهم الي السلوك المعروف لدي الجميع (سلوك الفساد المالي والاداري) لتأمين مستقبلهم. No exaggeration to say that the current pension index would be refunded seriously negatively on the workers currently in the government departments at the present time and kill through their jobs according to the standard by which fills them in the future before their retirement, which experienced to conduct known to everyone (the behaviour of financial and administrative corruption ) to secure their future.

New Iraq progress report due April 8-9 1 hour, 14 minutes ago
WASHINGTON (AFP) - The top US military commander and diplomat in Iraq will deliver their next progress report for Iraq on April 8-9, seven months before the US elections, the White House said Thursday.
ADVERTISEMENT
General David Petraeus and Ambassador Ryan Crocker will go before US lawmakers to discuss the security situation and efforts to forge national political reconciliation, five years after the US-led invastion.
White House spokeswoman Dana Perino indicated that Crocker would testify April 8-9. US National Security Council spokesman Gordon Johndroe later said that Petraeus would deliver his account on the same dates.
US President George W. Bush has said for months that the report will shape the level of US forces in the strife-torn country, much as a previous one in September 2007 led to a slight draw-down to be completed by July 2008.
But top US officials have indicated that they expect the United States to have more troops in Iraq at that point than before Bush ordered a "surge" of about 30,000 more troops there in January 2007.
The vastly unpopular war is expected to be a key issue in the November 2008 elections that will decide who replaces Bush in January 2009.
1:1 a big move dude..I'd love it though..I'm INNNNN
We have a pretty good handle on the news..lot of help

oh man, you ARE going to hell. lmao
So Sadam will after all feed the people in his country even from the other side of the sod...classic
Seems like things rolling along...gettin ready now
Thx...should be good without all the bs
Invest oil money in food, UN says DUUUUUHHHHHH
By Heba Saleh in Cairo
Published: March 6 2008 01:54 | Last updated: March 6 2008 01:54
The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organisation has called on the oil-producing countries of the Middle East to invest more of their oil windfalls in developing agriculture in their region, in order to address the serious threat to food security posed by water scarcity and climate change.
Jacques Diouf, FAO director-general, told ministers at the organisation’s Near East regional conference in Cairo that oil-producing countries, most of which are net importers of food, would benefit from investing in agriculture in neighbours such as Sudan and other north African countries, which have both land and water resources.

High food prices may force aid rationing - Feb-24Suu Kyi tops UN envoy’s agenda - Feb-23UN condemns Eritrea defiance - Feb-22Record cereal prices burden poor countries - Feb-14Companies warned on social reports - Jan-15UN fraud team wins a year’s reprieve - Jan-15“Not only have food prices gone up, but there is a possibility that if the trend continues we will have a problem of availability of food, and not only of the availability of resources to buy food,” said Mr Diouf.
“Hence the importance for these countries ... [to] consider the possibility of investing in some of their sister countries ... to ensure the security of their supply ... and in the same vein to help the agricultural development of these countries, which would be a win-win situation.”
Mr Diouf said investment in agriculture remained low in most of the Near East region, which according to the FAO’s categorisation includes 32 countries from Morocco eastwards to central Asia. He said it was crucial that more resources should go to agriculture and that the level of external aid to the sector had been falling since 1995.
According to the FAO, the number of undernourished people in the Near East increased from 33m in the early 1990s to 104m by 2004.
Water scarcity is a main constraint on agriculture in the region, which has only 2 per cent of global fresh water resources and 11 per cent of global population.
The FAO meeting repeated warnings that climate change is expected to make the situation worse, as changing rainfall patterns and global warming mean that more water is lost through evaporation.
Mr Diouf described the threat to food security in the region as serious, pointing out that it had some of the world’s biggest importers of cereal.
“It is a difficult balance for governments to respond to the need of their populations by importing food at very high prices, and also to ensure that the poorest of their populations get access to food at reasonable prices,” said Mr Diouf.
I agree nice...don't know what they are waiting for now eom

Iraq 'surge' downsizes as 2,000 US soldiers return home 13 minutes ago
BAGHDAD (AFP) - Some 2,000 US soldiers whose unit was part of last year's surge to bring stability to Iraq are leaving the country and not being replaced, the US military said Thursday.
ADVERTISEMENT
The soldiers, a brigade of paratroopers from the storied 82nd Airborne Division in Fort Bragg, North Carolina, were deployed in Iraq in early January 2007.
"During this time, the 2nd Brigade was part of the initial surge of five additional brigades into Iraq," a statement said.
Washington deployed around 30,000 extra troops to rein in sectarian bloodshed that had left tens of thousands of people killed.
Once the brigade re-deploys, "the number of US combat brigades in Iraq will drop from 19 to 18, with three additional brigades scheduled to redeploy by July. The unit will not be replaced," the statement read.
The redeployment "represents the increased capability and progress being made in Iraq by the Iraqi security forces to provide their own security," said said Colonel Billy Buckner, a spokesman for US-led forces in Iraq.
The US military currently has 158,000 troops deployed in the country.
wow...interesting Hall said OPEC was partly to blame for economic woes in the U.S. and elsewhere. "By helping the price to rise, they have fueled inflation and they're fueling recession," he said.
But Stephen Schork, editor of The Schork Report, which keeps tabs on global energy markets and trends, said the cartel may not have had much choice.
"If you're OPEC, you see ample supplies and questionable demand," he said.
Schork gave OPEC credit for not pushing through a cut in output, which "would legitimize the bullish speculation we've seen since February" and risk sending oil to $120 a barrel or higher.
Crude inventories are growing, including "a massive increase" in U.S. stocks, Schork said.
"It's certainly a comfortable supply situation," he said.

How To Tap Lenders When Credit Is Tight
PARIS (Thomson Financial) - Iraqi Oil Minister Hussein Sharistani said Iraq intends to almost double its oil production over the next two years, to 4.5 mln barrels per day.
In an interview with Monte Carlo Dualiya, the Arabic unit of RFI, Sharistani said: 'Iraq will increase its oil production by 2 mln bpd to 4.5 mln bpd within two years'.
He said the goal will be reached thanks to tenders for contracts for technical support, and said he is optimistic about the results of the first government tender. He said over 100 oil companies have responded to the first stage of the technical support plan, and the results of the first phase of the tender will be known during this month.
The Iraqi government is relying on its own funds to finance the technical support projects, but the companies chosen will be allowed to explore and operate new oilfields. The ministry said the oil extracted will not be shared.
The government then wants to increase production to 6 mln bpd for the coming 5-10 years, the ministry said.
