#1 "The IMF noted in November that the Iraqi economy is already outperforming all its Arab neighbors." This statement is truly the death knell of Mafias and gangs, and they know it. Their greatest fear is prosperity, because with prosperity, the trouble-makers not only lose any active support, they lose passive support, and ordinary citizens become antagonistic to them. |
