How a Well-Connected Texas Oil Company Revolutionized the Way America Makes War
By Pratap Chatterjee
From Halliburton's vital mission as the logistical backbone of the U.S. occupation in Iraq—without it there could be no war or occupation—to its role in covering up gang-rape among its personnel in Baghdad, Halliburton's Army is a devastating exposé of corporate malfeasance and political cronyism. In shocking detail it shows how Halliburton and its former subsidiary Kellogg, Brown & Root (KBR) really do business in Iraq, and around the world.
Watch Pratap Chatterjee discuss Halliburton's Army on Democracy Now! with Amy Goodman.
