NEW YORK (CNN/Money) "The first contracts for rebuilding post-war Iraq have been awarded and Vice President Dick Cheney's old employer, Halliburton Co., is one of the early winners."

"Old employers" is a bit of a stretch ... he was a director and is still
collecting a million per annum from them. See following from
http://truthout.org/docs_03/022803A.shtml .

The company doing the actual firefighting is called Boots and Coots,
working in alliance with Halliburton. Now they are truly weird; and they
look like they've set themselves up to be taken over by a Panamanian
company run by "a shadowy group of texas oilmen". The trick here is that
under Panamanian law the directors of the company can be (and are being)
kept secret.

One thing to note is that firefighters are the first on the scene; they
take physical control of the wells in question. And I wouldn't be surprised
at all to hear about Boots & Coots preemptively going in to "secure" oil
wells that are not on fire.

It only gets stranger from here:

What does hellfighting have to do with animatronic Indians and a loopy
would-be theme park in the Sedona, Arizona desert?

And what does Dick Cheney have in common with Reed Slatkin, the minister of
Scientology accused of running one of the biggest Ponzi schemes in history?
