Well... maybe some should point this out. How in 2008 did they know the rate would be 1170 now. It didn't become 1170 until 2009. "the value of the Iraqi dinar which is trading Monday IQD1,170 against one US dollar."
And before they change the story to "It was written in early 2009" Might as well point this out too. Pretty amazing to write about December 2009 in the past tense. "The inflation rate fell to 6.1% in December 2009"
Dow Jones Newswire: A current 25,000 Iraqi dinar banknote will become IQD25, and a dollar will equal only 1.17 dinars.
