The CBI is on record that they are not yet ready to act due largely to the
"political situation" as opposed to preparations that they themselves
might still need to make. This
leads me to believe that, in their view, enough legislation has been passed to
smooth the wheels for a switch to a free float, but that the security situation
is now a hangup. One
thing we have never quite uncovered is this: how would moving to a free
float affect Al Quaeda? If it would be to their benefit, then a delay is
understandable and justifiable from both Maliki's and the CBI's point of view.
If, on the other hand, that is
not a major concern (that Al Quaeda might benefit, or not), then the
"security situation" excuse from the CBI appears to be more a
"talking point" from the Maliki administration than an actual reason
for the delay.
