Now if thats true. then contracts should of been awarded on the basis of what was best for the Iraqi people and in line with the wishes of the provisional government etc etc. So if the Iraqi people wanted the contracts to go to a French company or a German company then thats what should have happended.

What you are missing is that Halliburton is only one company. It is simply mentioned more than others because of the moonbats. You can easily see that many other companies have been involved, and that they heavily try to focus on using local companies. Halliburton is simply the best company for this kind of work, so why not get the best?
