Olbermann and Greenwald expose war profiteers

Back

Keith Olbermann, on his MSNBC program, Countdown, for Sept 19, 2006. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/3036677/ Keith interviewing Robert Greenwald, director of "Iraq For Sale", which documents the war profiteering taking place in Iraq. http://iraqforsale.org Fans of Greenwalds work, of which I am one, will also be aware of his production company, Brave New Films. And how very fitting that company's title is. http://www.bravenewfilms.org Being the savvy media channel that they are, they also have a Director's account here at YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/bravenewfilms If you haven't already subscribed, you might consider joining me in doing so. By now, I would assume you already know that Vice President Dick Cheney was the Chairman and CEO of Halliburton, following his work in the Nixon administration. And, as capable as I am of doing so, I will not belabor that point. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dick_cheney http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halliburton But the number of former government and military personnel working at Halliburton, and vice versa, goes way beyond that, as Greenwald indicates here. When I was in the service, the biggest thing getting outsourced to private companies on base was the chow hall. Now there are private companies doing just about everything the military is. Including the fighting: http://www.blackwaterusa.com/ But that, as they say, is another story...
