Politics: Just FYI
Halliburton has billed -- not just been contracted for, but processed work orders for -- nearly $600 million in sole-source work related to the U.S. invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan.
That $600 million is just for troop services and other related support work. The ceiling on the separate oil-field work that the Army Corps of Engineers no-bid awarded to Halliburton's Kellogg Brown & Root subsidiary is $7 billion, of which more than $70 million has already been billed.
Of course, nobody noticed when UNICEF's executive director had to beg for about about $165 million to keep children from starving to death in Iraq. I don't imagine a lot of Halliburton executives give to UNICEF. Maybe they should.
