Iraq: UN Smears America
Oh, for pity's sake, another anti-Halliburton story, this time from the United Nations. It seems the wonderful UN auditors did not like the quality of the supporting documents for some of Halliburton's charges. (You know, there is a terrorist war going on.) But why do I say "smears America" instead of "smears Halliburton"? Because anti-Halliburton smears are always used as innuendo against vice-President Richard Cheney, and the U.S. itself.
Here is the story: Audit says US should repay Iraq
The US should reimburse Iraq up to $208m for work done by a US contractor, a UN watchdog agency has said.The International Advisory and Monitoring Board said the work by Halliburton had been either overpriced or insufficiently documented.
Its recommendation came after it conducted an audit on contracting work by Halliburton's KBR unit in 2003-04.
In response, the energy firm denied overcharging and insisted it had co-operated with the audit.
