NOW WHO SAID WAR DOESN'T MAKE PEOPLE RICH???
The Halliburton corporation, already the Iraq war's poster child for ”waste, fraud and abuse”, has been hit with a new double-whammy.
NEW YORK, Apr 21 (IPS) – The Halliburton corporation, already the Iraq war’s poster child for ”waste, fraud and abuse”, has been hit with a new double-whammy.
A report from the U.S. State Department accuses the company of ”poor performance” in its 1.2-billion-dollar contract to repair Iraq’s vital southern oil fields.
And a powerful California congressman is charging that Defence Department audits showing additional overcharges totaling 212 million dollars were concealed from United Nations monitors by the George W. Bush administration.
NOW I HAVE MY OWN VIEWS ABOUT ALL OF THIS, BUT that doesn't matter. The only thing that matters is the truth. I guess I would feel better about all this if i WASN"T a US taxpayer and long the stock of HAL!!!
