If dollar drops, then foreign investors are unlikely to maintain their investments in the United States, which are held in dollars.
If these foreign investors decide to stop investing, or to unload the investments that they hold, the impact on the financial markets will be severe. The United States requires $2.7 billion of imported money daily in order to meet its financial needs. If it becomes more difficult to attract this money, then interest rates will have to rise in order to increase the demand.
Hmmmm. Thanks for the correction.

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "MEMRI TV Project: Mothers of Hizbullah Martyrs: We are Very Happy and Want to Sacrifice More Children"
On the occasion of "Martyrs Day," Hizbullah's Al-Manar TV recently broadcast statements from the mothers of several martyrs, including an interview with Umm Said ("Mother of Said"). The mothers expressed pride and joy for the actions of their sons. The show was translated by MEMRI's TV Monitor Project; to view a segment from the show, visit: http://memritv.org/Search.asp?ACT=S9&P1=371. For more MEMRI TV clips from Al-Manar, visit www.memritv.org/special3.asp. The following are excerpts: [1]
Umm Said: 'This is a Blessed Day, the Day My Son Gave Me Reason to Hold my Head High'
Interviewer: "In addition to your being the mother of a martyr, it so happened that your son said was martyred on this very day - 'Martyr's Day.' Let's begin with a few words from you to all our viewers today. What are the feelings and emotions of a martyr's mother every year on this day?"
Umm Said: "In the name of Allah the Compassionate and Merciful, Allah be praised for granting my son to me, on this blessed day. I can not begin to explain what this day means to me, how great and significant it is for me and for all martyrs' mothers. I am talking about the martyrs' mothers and all mothers in Lebanon. Whatever I could say about them would not be enough, especially since they paid the price in blood, liberated southern Lebanon, and brought us closer to victory. They granted us a great reward.
"It is enough that they granted us paradise, the greatest thing in this world. I wish a good year to all the martyrs' mothers and our children, may Allah honor them. Allah be praised for having granted us our sons. Allah be praised."
Interviewer: "Do you feel that as a martyr's mother you have a special status that is different from that of mothers who don't have martyred sons?"
Umm Said: "Definitely, Definitely
