The way to rebuild is to fund Iraqi companies.  That way the money stays there, instead of lining rich American's wallets.\n\nIt isn't a simple plan anymore, and perhaps never was, but Halliburton was never the answer!\n\nIf the money stays there, then it will continue to circulate, providing the necessary economic stimulus to bring the country out of poverty.\n\nIn order to eliminate terrorism, you must eliminate the things that cause terrorism.  ((Poverty, ignorance and fanatacism))  can't eliminate the latter, but we can reduce the poverty and ignorance.  \n\nDon't know if we can stay anymore.  It isn't that Democrats want to lose, it is that we know the war is lost already, now, how do we best clean up this mess, for our soldiers and the Iraqi people.

You forgot about Halliburton and their numerous subsidiaries,that got no bid time everlasting government contracts all over the Middle East.They along with the ones you have mentioned are bleeding America dry.Some may think they have been accountable.But the people who keep track of these things say there is over 30 billion dollars unaccounted for.That was at end of 2005.Wonder what it is now.

Halliburton is a corporation.  It deals mainly in the Oil Business, however large reconstruction contract were awarded to Halliburton to help in rebuilding Iraq.  There have long been questions as to the legality of the way these contracts were handled as Vice President Dick Cheney was CEO of Haliburton prior to his coming to public office with President Bush in 2001.  He is still receiving his severance, buy out, pension from them which has raised eyebrows as to the legality of these contracts, with the feeling that there may be a conflict of interest between the Executive Branch and Halliburton.  This has not been proven, however it does linger over he heads of the Administration.

Well the Iraqis were given a "grant" of 80 billion to rebuild the country etc but to this day it has been delivered to them but never recieved if you know what i mean. And not that i agree with Saddam Hussain ethics but they refined and shipped more oil when he was in power than they do now. about ten times as much.

It's all about the oil rights... Saudia Arabia was created by Standard oil of California in 1928. So now we need more oil and Iraq has the next largest reserves.

I think it was beacuse of the Oil as Iraq was planning to award all the contracts to the European and Russian companies.\nThe other reason is that George Bush Jr wanted to complete the task what GB Sr has set to achieve "Oust saddam" campaign\nMaybe even to safeguard the interests of Israel

Oil! They are now drilling for it in the plains of Asher! It several miles deep. And may take a year to reach.   My question is will this relieve the pressure from the Saudi wells? If so all hell will break loose over there!

Freedom of speech is legal in America.  Strange how the CEO of Haliburton (VP Cheeney) stepped down.  Large overseas contracts used to go to Bectal Corp, however since the government said they would rebuild Iraq, Haliburton got the contracts and the U.S. blew up a lot of building. Thus creating a lot of work for Haliburton.   Sound fishy???   Not to mention Cheeney's gross income for 2005 was over 8 million dollars.

When Iraq was actually producing oil their capacity was around 2.2 million barrels a day.  Due to disruptions in the pipeline and in the basic production lines their production has been only in the 600,000 barrels per day range.

Iraq still has very large reserves of oil, but due to old equipment and terrorists they don't export alot of it. This will improve over the next few years. Oil reserves in Saudi Arabia and Iran are on the decline even though they still export large amounts of it. At the present time the U.S. doesn't purchase any of Iraqs oil directly from them. All of Iraqs production is committed to Europe and Asia. Iraqs oil that comes to the U.S. is purchased from sources in Europe.

Is that what we are doing over there? I heard something about that last night I think. Well, it should last as long as Halliburton finds it finacially prudent. If they start to recieve guff over it, political outcry, then they may pull their "democracy" out. Or just change the name of the company to something more pleasing, like Altria. Or, and this ones mine people, you pretend like you made it up though: demoilconjobo.

The job is mostly done - but not yet complete.\n\nOur work in Iraq is like building a house.  We have the foundation and framing finished - but it is not yet ready for occupancy.  Let us finish the job.

That sounds about right. You all know we are still in Afganistan right? We are also still in Kosovo. Did you know that? I don't hear any news from that any more. Except through our military chanells.\nIt takes time to do it right, train their soldiers and police. We have built power plants and water facilities. These facilities were not bombed by us. We made darn sure we kept the infrastructure intact. We gave back what Saddam took away with his 30+ palaces and grand life style for his people the Sunnis (who aren't too happy they don't have a friend running the country anymore). I'm not talking about all the Sunnis though.\nThe big thing is we have to make sure the Government of Iraq has a good enough security force to make Iraq safe and secure. Then we'll leave.\nThe war WITH Iraq was over in spring of 2003. We are fighting insurgants and terrorists now.

You must be in the oil biz, or work for Haliburton.\n\nIraq has a very UNcivil war on it's hands, and the U.S. forces are not in control.  Stop reading white house press releases and go check out some international news sources, it's just possible it will open your eyes to some inequities and bias in the fox news(FOREIGN OWNED MAY I ADD)/white house information flow.\n\nAND, btw, do you SERIOUSLY THINK that Iranians are hanging out on yahoo, to chat with you?  Their war machine is producing weapons and infantry full tilt right now, they don't have time for this silliness.
