The most Most Buried Story: Halliburton pumping the oil that’s not even metered

No it’s not the Downing Street Memo, or the $9 Billion lost in Iraq, or the 52 warnings before 9/11 (info that was suppressed before the election)…

The most buried story is the fact that Halliburton has been pumping the oil in Iraq since 2003, and it hasn’t been metered. This was revealed by the Inspector General’s report on the missing $9 billion, and highlighted by Galloway’s awesome testimony before the Senate this May

Have a look at the oil that you didn’t even meter, that you were shipping out of the country and selling, the proceeds of which went who knows where?

Gee, and oil prices have been at all time highs… coincidence?

Human Rights Investigator: Troops Starving Iraqis a violation of International Law

“A drama is taking place in total silence in Iraq, where the coalition’s occupying forces are using hunger and deprivation of water as a weapon of war against the civilian population,” Mr Ziegler told a press conference in Geneva.

He said coalition forces were using “starvation of civilians as a method of warfare.”

“This is a flagrant violation of international law.”

And if you don’t want to believe him, you don’t have to.

A US military spokesman in Baghdad denied the allegations.

Talk about a nation in denial.

When will they ever wake?

The 9 Billion or more was probably used on the latest crude project.

They are some shrude crude dudes.

I love the hackneyed mantra the Neo-Cons use to make their own ranks docile and make a feeble attempt to satisfy everyone else.

"If this war was about oil, why are the prices going up?"

Haha! To increase the profit margin of course! In addition, didn't Saddam Hussein sell oil very cheap as part of his vendetta against Kuwait and other oil rich nations he didn't like?

With Saddam Hussein gone, no reason to sell abnormally cheap anymore
