Iraq For sale

MOVIE PREVIEW: Iraq for Sale: The War Profiteers This 2006 documentary about the ongoing Iraq War and the behavior of companies with no-bid contracts working within Iraq gives detailed information on four major contractors who over-bill the government (and by extension, the American public)and are doing substandard work while endangering the lives of American soldiers as well as private citizens. The documentary contends these companies are composed of ex-military and ex-government workers who unethically help their companies get and keep enormous contracts and milk the American taxpayer. - Free Documentaries

This is information the Bush Administration has tried to cover up. The Republicans have sacrificed American lives for profits. One of the most interesting clips is of Bush taking questions. . .of course he doesn't know the answers and says he will have to make a call. Halliburton fails to provide their employees with safe drinking and bathing water, and charges the United States government $100 per bag of laundry. Employees who do not like the fact that their laundry is returned dirtier then when they sent it and chose to wash their items in the sink are told that they must participate in Halliburton’s laundry service.

Halliburton operates under a no bid, cost plus contract. That means that the contract was just handed to Halliburton and no other company bid on it and that the more they charge our government the more they make. They rented Ford vehicles for $250,000, intentionally ordered wrong equipment, destroyed items that broke instead of having the item repaired, ran empty trucks on envoys and charged the United States government for it all, overcharging in excess of 1billion dollars. Please remember that Dick Chaney was once the CEO of Halliburton and that the Vice Presidents office coordinated their contracts. You can see the full video at
