Cheney's Halliburton
Stock Rose 3,281%
Executive Intelligence Review
10-12-5
(EIRNS) -- Halliburton stock options held by Dick Cheney rose 3,281% since October, 2004,according to figures compiled by Sen. Frank Lautenberg (D-NJ), reports rawstory website today.
The options were worth $241,498, now they are worth $8 million.
In a Sept. 15 statement, as Halliburton was getting no-bid contracts for repairs following Hurricane Katrina, Lautenberg said that Cheney should divest himself of these Halliburton holdings.
"Halliburton has already raked in more thant $10 billion from the Bush-Cheney administration for work in Iraq, and now they are being awarded some of the first Katrina contracts. It is unseemly for the Vice President to continue to benefit from this company at the same time his Administration funnels billions of dollars to it.
Bush & Cheney through Haliburton have scamed the American tax payer
contrary to AMerica's belief that their country has god on it's side and is the righteous bringer of democracy
it has never been so it has always been about profiteering
all your dead soldiers of past and present wars payed their lives so fat cats and war mongers got their fill
to believe otherwise is to admit you dont know and are still spell bound by their grasp over you
the propaganda movies ( john wayne Errol flynn etc..)
have you hypnotised they will have you believe your pilots died helping china fight the japanese prior to america's entree to ww2
when they died trying to provoke an attack on america by the Japanese
to enter ww2
in the end the back door tactic worked
AK_Conservative said:Canuck, you have no idea what you are talking about. there is no connection between iraq, oil and why we invaded! Your providing accusations that have no substantial evidence to it. What "evidence" you bring is left-wing pychotic interpretation that looks to drive the bush administration and the American foriegn policy agenda to its knees!
You dont support the war, you dont support the troops, you dislike america, youre selfish in everyway! Broden your horizon and look at facts!
Tetracide said:First of all, quit with the oil smokescreen. It never worked to begin with, and it still doesn’t work now cause the lack of evidence to back up the ridiculous and flagrantly illogical notion that we went to war for oil.
Secondly, if you are under the impression that the U.S. and the coalition who believes in spreading freedom to oppressed people, are out to conquer and permanently occupy other nations, you are mistaken. Troops withdrawal is in the mix, and the U.S. is no imperialistic and conquering state. We have spread freedom to millions, and millions more to come. Don't like it? Fine. Don't tarnish the process. Don't go to elaborate and exotic lengths to blame the President for this, that, and the other.
So much to cover, so little time. Here, I've talking about this extensivly:

$250,000,000,000, 1900 US dead & 25,000 Iraqis dead & all just to rid a barron desert of a few rag heads jumping over obstacle courses with kalashnikovs, who will just find another desert somewhere else, when all along the real source of danger lies in places like British Mosques & Florida flight schools.....
Even if Iraq is democratised, it won't be the solution. The IRA, UDA, Bader-Meinhof & Red Brigade... oh & Al Qaeda... all survived in democratic countries.
The four real reasons the US went to war in Iraq are
Reason 1) Oil.
Reason 2) Saddam was the next best bad guy to lash out at after failing to head Bin Laden off at the pass.
Reason 3) As a kick back for arms companies such as Northrop Grumann & General Dynamics that fund Bush & the Republicans & spent $millions lobbying in the Pentagon in favour of the Iraq war.

Canuck said:It isnt for oil ,it is for the control of what currency is used around the world to purchase the oil
The US $ predominence is evaporating around the globe....
and it indeed does ,and should for good reason ,tremble bush in his cowboy boots.it may well be under his watch that the US $ falls from grace,and under his watch America became a premptive war mongering nation, that used excessive force ,including torture ,on a third world nation .To make sure the Arabs get the message.
It's unraveling you cant hold back the hands of time
,there is a time coming where America will be like the rest of us
perhaps we can move on to a higher plane when America 5% of the world's population ,thinks they are better then 95% of the worlds population.
one can only hope

Aryan Imperium said:Those are not "reasons" at all but consequences and byproducts.
Iraq was invaded for one reason alone-
To bring multiculturalism and global capitalism to the moslem world.Control by the New World Order was what it was all about nothing else.
Missouri Mule said:And let me guess. You haven't taken your medication today, have you?
Aryan Imperium said:And what medication would that be?[Hope you know what you are talking about].
Missouri Mule said:Try risperidone. That'll be a good start.
Aryan Imperium said:And why would I need that? Please be as specific as you possibly can.
Missouri Mule said:I don't mean to be unkind but your reasoning and thinking is not rational. This is what you said. It is utter nonsense. If you go about your life making these kinds of statements you will be seen as a little "wacky."

Aryan Imperium said:You may not agree and indeed clearly do not agree with my Weltanschauung but that is an entirely seperate issue as to whether I hold and express my beliefs in a rational manner.
Are you in a position to make a judgement,a sound judgement on whether my reasoning and thinking are "rational"?
Even if you possess medical qualifications[you have not indicated that you do] as you have never met me or engaged in any meaningful and non-judgemental analysis of my mental or emotional state you are not qualified to make any such statement or diagnosis. Ergo your reasoning and not mine is irational.
It is a sign of an inflexible attitude and mass conditioning that individuals and groups of people label others as "insane". Such individuals and groups are unable to explore beliefs that are at variance with their own.They feel threatened by views which are completely different to their own. I am sorry for you. The NWO has done its job well in your case.
GySgt said:"The four real reasons Iraq was invaded"
1) Our ammo has an expiration date on them.
2) Some people need killing.
3) The never ending reality shows on television had become boring.
-and-
4) There's this really nice coffee shop in down town Baghdad.
