mother seventy five she's very old and i miss mountains when i'm in town i spend a lot of time here right now probably so on the survey i said simply carrying out the work that his father did and his father before him nothing has changed over many many centuries and that's half the problem it's hard work and many people don't want to come into the industry now and it's really fit their could dial it all together. and it's difficult to manage everything alone i used to have people who helped me but they were no good they didn't take care of the sheep with all their hearts they hurt the cattle through the schools and through europe with more people leaving than coming to the countryside the region's government is having to act making the life of a herd and more attractive than promising largest subsidies for produce and livestock and organizing cooperatives for the sale of day products to ensure the hoda gets a high a fair price i asked sympathizes with those youngsters leaving for an easier more profitable life they in their publics capital because ill but he no longer wishes

to join them he enjoys his pastoral way of life then looking for a helper who shares his enthusiasm with more time on his hands he says matter of fact he can start to look for a new wife. more news today violence is once again flared up. these are the images the world has been seeing from the streets of canada. china operations are all day. when i woke up early that morning he was about to say about four thirty am we had to be out by our trucks by seventy and we already knew but we were going on our

mission we were told at seven pm the night before on the eighth of april the soldier that was sketching a map with his boot in the gravel. next to his vehicle while some of the saw part of some of the stuff just said the roads are red and i wasn't sure what red meant we left the post. nearing eleven o'clock we're going down the road and we got pretty close to the i believe that the grubby prison and also the traffic there's no traffic. and right about then. i mean bullets came from everywhere satyrs like we were in a hail storm there would come in through my doors and he might take or if they're in the windshield they were put into it in the. you could hear it coming through one door hit the other door with a large scale and i mean they're just coming in everywhere and that it just it

reached a crescendo it just seemed like it never stopped after that. they're going to hear the man. crying on the radio yelling out for help i'm burning down burning help me help me please don't let me die interact friends that i had promised before that. you know if they broke down or something happened i wouldn't leave from here and scream and. head to head help me help me please i don't want to die here i was completely saturated with blood you know and my parents are soaked with blood machinery received from derek there just absolutely just sheer terror. just absolutely positively horrifying. i still feel i just still have that. sort of thing and it's like said here right now.

i'm still. awaited bodies of four people were found west of baghdad near an area where u.s. fuel convoy was attacked on friday. day after that attack seven americans were reported missing including contractors working for halliburton a company that supplies fuel and other supplies to u.s. troops the families were notified. it had to have to you know interest i think your teenager going. to. his death maybe. even

want to do the right thing so. bottom line they were totally taken advantage of and u.s. forces here are saying openly they're braced for more terror attacks more than a significant anniversary of the fall of baghdad we had a christian holiday and they converged to create what was an obvious day of danger right trust of the company i trusted and this is a fortune five hundred company that i just don't believe it was to me down the road it was closer was going to have hostile activity for sure. i just. didn't cross my mind halliburton k.b.r. had news from multiple sources including multiple sources in the military that the roads that day were under active combat operations and were black clothes and or red no civilians they knew. there were more than

a good chance that they would be killed why would they send this convoy in camouflage trucks down that road in the middle of battle is about contracts i believe fulfilling a contract and replacing us if we died there's a lot of different contexts being offered out there and tell about who wants most of them if they could have them all they would take a moment. then. they were to continue doing business with their r.v. whatever the risks were was nothing but the money there's no duty honor country among anyone it how britain k.b.r. their contract with the army provided them literally billions of dollars of revenue every year that the contract profit and the contract profit that they may became more important than the lives of the men that they hired kill bag

or replace people they try to do with us and. they killed my friends first as far as i'm concerned they try to kill me i know they know people talk about oh they they gave their lives for this thing and i back and assure you they did not. they were stolen from them they were. screamin and didn't want to go. and there wasn't any thing greater glorious about the whole. scene or deal they didn't die they didn't pass away they were murdered. k.b.r. got billions of dollars worth of contracts in iraq without a bidding albertan got the government contract without competitive bidding. in the

case of power burn most of the contracts they've received to been sole source contracts which means they're either given the contract it's just offered to them or the only people to bid on it a lot of federal officials will defend this saying this is the only company that could do the work conservatives especially who favor a free market system should be outraged by the degenerate state of the lack of competition in defense industry one time green house a top contracting officer at the army corps of engineers alleges favoritism and rule breaking at what did until i process that was corrupt that was geared toward preferential treatment to k.b.r. k.b.r. whisp pre-select and the duration of the contract was pre-determined. the most blatant abuse that i had experienced in my contracting career. and weighs

competition and i cannot sufficiently stress that in defense industry when it comes to the big programs there is not competition it's monopoly and cartel behavior it is corrupt is corrupting it is corrosive to our national defense. there is nothing there where is it coming up for your old who wants it thank you and when they're. never worried about every morning. we get anything out of the band in three months. and no one. can see my name is james patterson proud to work for halliburton my name's ben carter and within the first week of being in iraq i knew that that wasn't going to be the company that i wanted to be with halliburton was hired to provide clean safe. cooking cleaning shower water for the military one of halliburton's employees something wiggling

in the water and his toilet bowl so i went and tested the water in our water storage tanks there was no chlorine in them none the water we showered in every single day was extremely contaminated and when i talk about contaminated water i'm saying malaria typhus. cryptosporidium i mean the list is really really long how barton is accused by its own employees of exposing troops to contaminated water in iraq i tried to notify the troops but they're exposed to a serious health risk i was told. they were only concerned with making their profit and didn't care how it may affect the troops of the sixty seven water treatment plants the allen burton run

sixty three of them were providing safe water. and the marines are showered in it every single day. sorry. i was there to help them. there's a lot of soldiers over there they might come home without a bullet wound but there's a lot of them that are going to come home with pathogens in their blood because albert. and they don't even know to get tested for it. unless somebody tells them and i'm sure how burton is not going to be the company to tell . when i joined halliburton i knew i was going to work on something. we put out a few fires that were. once ran into

a small challenge of getting some plaster troops with the biggest bank in our troops going to the americans to. fill just a little closer to home. how would. i leave. our food. please. tell me about that line over there what line of my looking out i know. where you eat. several times were. all it takes is one iraqi that's an insurgent and because they knew what times we were going to eat every day they knew when to expect to hit. and that happens because k.b.r. won't go to a twenty four hour feeding schedule where they just always have food that they won't do it because it saves them money. because they get paid by how many soldiers

they by how many soldiers they say feeding the troops the pentagon has found some serious problems work on that contract as well pentagon auditors found out i have a burton contract to provide food and housing for american troops at a staggering one point eight billion dollars in unsupported cost it was all a scam how burton was charging forty five dollars for canada like. a military free and. now these sodas were made right there in the desert it's not as if they were brought over from the united states. with arabic. you know coca-cola pepsico whatever right there in the desert so it's not as if they had an exorbitant transportation they had the little mobile units that we had to put on clothes and. how to burn one hundred dollars for every bag clothes i washed.

parents versus social workers duckett nabby pm last stop get any mean that damn good many children have become cries used to fight full why does the law or threaten families of the social forward to seeing the female they have right of will hold minimal faith in what they have any kind of for suspicion about the world

will think of your children are often just better at bringing up kids than their own mum and dad. and from what we have an industry that is so. concentrated form. of the footrace children. most of the. science technology innovation all the least of melanin still around russia we've got the future covered.

whenever we got our water back it felt worse than when we turned it in everything was still grimy and i was told by my chain of command that i was not allowed to wash my laundry on my own i had to take it to k.b.r. to have them washed even though we all knew that they were doing a horrible job because they get ninety nine dollars. that for a bag of laundry that i could do at home for three dollars a legal way a statement from the goldman or taxpayers money down auto. from the company is overcharging taxpayers. company billed taxpayers for its contract work in iraq it is your money that's being used these contracts have managed to call cost plus which is the opposite of trying to save money it guarantees that everything that you buy will be paid back and re bust if

it seat is justified and you'll be given a profit in addition. critics. say the more taxpayer dollars halliburton and the more halliburton. cost plus encourages you to run up the cost of the program because you are going to get a percentage of the end result because so there is no incentive to stay at motel six stay in the ritz carlton in kind of folks the place that they chose for orientation to the way it was a huge resort set right on the ocean. three swimming pools so it was better than the window. it was faint save marble floors mahogany wood were those just beautiful they had st j. . and you could go in ridgeway verner's and play in the water they were running

wave runners and we got paid by the hour to do it i was told this don't question and enjoy it several government agencies are currently investigating if halliburton overcharge for work already completed in iraq. and they had five star meals catered to him every day it was so lavish rose the vegetable platters beef platters fish platters. contrary. that the more money we spend at school. money we get in our pockets we have made over there compared to military when those guys were living in tents and we had our condition private which is they tell us that we're staying on we're completely everybody else getting sick will thrust the transactions are getting paid millions of dollars why can't even give us a test that doesn't make us sick to look at. the soldiers or sleep with mom these little cars in the middle of the desert one of these k.b.r. executives are driving these forty thousand dollars vehicles they and their

secretaries are driving at least a thirty to forty thousand dollars vehicle with everything imaginable all of that you could put on room ramps and leather interior cd players and all these extra minute is a you know you don't really need more time why do they need an h two home or why do they have cadillac escalates in iraq for how important managers what is the purpose. they get the wrong equipment ordered the wrong stuff. pewters still in boxes new vehicles they push them out of what they called burn pits and i just set it on fire climate as the was to get more money for the right equipment or the right stuff they needed why would you need to order some biases roman quickly just because i'm a patient and you burn it. and destroy it. you

got brand new trucks over there and then there's not even oil filters so when the motor blows what do you do buy a new truck and build the government say five thousand or crowed i wouldn't have a spare tire to create it and we had to blow it up and they didn't care how my birthday and costs go up much by four and these are maybe eighty thousand dollars vehicles maybe one hundred thousand dollars you know they're expensive trucks we're burning. you in front of the iraqi people we're not really doing anything to help we won't escort entire convoys where every flatbed truck was empty the allegation come from twelve truckers complaining that the company was wasting government money by running empty trucks on the convoys and billing the government for them. to travel. and take a chance. when there was no purpose when you went up to. the alley i went to make a better life for my family always have

a roof over their head not to worry about where their next meal is coming from but then you know you look and you go up and down a road. and your butt is getting healed for. for no cause at all not even as much as a band-aid try. that's how i can kill him i can your money. halliburton cues to hundreds of millions of dollars in improper chargers pentagon auditors have found potential over charges of sixty one million dollars now the numbers are apparently even larger than previously thought it's unreasonable and unsupported bills that exceed one billion dollars if anybody's overcharging the government we expect him to repay that money has been proven so many times that halliburton is overbilled them. and then the pentagon still pays them anyway i

don't know who it is that is protecting halliburton i don't understand why the military would protect them if you look at their board of directors they've got contacts in the state department contacts in the military. people who work for halliburton once worked for the military. when you hire top pentagon officials and when the vice president is your former c.e.o. you're going to get the access that other people don't get is reportedly not a coincidence that vice president dick cheney's old company got a huge contract to help rebuild iraq time magazine said it's gotten a hold of a pentagon e-mail saying cheney's office coordinated how important a multi-billion dollar deal all the revelations came out about how burton getting all these fancy no bid contracts there was not a single hearing in the congress house or senate about the mysterious bidding processes around iraq and halliburton. that's ridiculous the oversight

responsibility belongs to the united states congress it belongs here and it's not happening here the senate should spend a little less. advertising allegations of wrongdoing and spend more time talking about what is going right if anybody believes that the contracts handed to how a bird for iraq were. you know the moral equivalent of insider trading. you know i've got an ocean in the middle of kansas i'd like to take you surf and it's just phenomenal i mean course they were insider deals of course it was payback for old old friends and political supporters and campaign contributors they're very strategic and how they allocate their political contributions you'll see most of their money going to the committees that oversee military matters and funding for. when you pay influence money in the form of campaign contributions people look the

other way the u.s. army announced today it signed a new contract with a unit of the huge contracting firm. and stock has quadrupled in value since the war began and taxpayers are being ripped off. the people in charge say we want to give to contractors because they can do it cheaper behold the evidence is now coming in and it isn't cheaper and we're not actually getting what we're paying for. we were writing contracts with. how the burden others to do things the iraqis could have done better and far far cheaper and by the way we would have got iraqis off the street and give them jobs let us stop the war profiteers learn to say no to them and learn to say if you continue to you're going to go to jail because that's where you belong my amendment would stop. there hasn't been

a single major piece of contracting oversight legislation passed by the congress since the war began not even a significant amendment has been passed despite all the enormous amounts of fraud and waste and abuse your needs to be a special committee established a bipartisan committee to take a look at waste and fraud and abuse the amendment is not agreed to them and is not adopted and of leahy in them many if not take retail. well it's.
