More developments in the Halliburton bribery case in Nigeria: The Wall
Street Journal reports Halliburton recently made public internal documents
"indicating officials of a consortium it now leads discussed bribing public
officials in Nigeria in order to secure a multibillion-dollar contract
there." Now, the Los Angeles Times reports, the Nigerian parliament released
a new report on the allegations that Halliburton made "vast illegal payments
to win multibillion-dollar deals" while Vice President Dick Cheney was at
the helm in the 1990s. The report accuses the company of now playing
"hide-and-seek games" with local investigators. The Nigerian government is
now calling on Halliburton CEO Dave Lesar to come to Nigeria to "make
necessary clarifications" to parliamentary investigators and recommends that
the company "receive no further contracts in Nigeria until all international
inquiries have been concluded."
The Pugs want all good Americans to look the other way while Bush/Cheney
profit from War & Death.
So when are you headed for Iraq?
Is that like the bit in "It's a Beautiful Life" where the angel says "every
time a bell sounds, an angel got his wings?"
Or is it more like unadulterated bullshit?
