'Iraq for sale' documentary has KBR fuming
Acclaimed director Robert Greenwald (Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price, Outfoxed, and Uncovered) takes you inside the lives of soldiers, truck drivers, widows and children who have been changed forever as a result of profiteering in the reconstruction of Iraq. Iraq for Sale uncovers the connections between private corporations making a killing in Iraq and the decision makers who allow them to do so.
KBR's RESPONSE: "Halliburton supports an organization like Brave New Films’ right to free speech -- even when they have the facts wrong.
The claims alleged against KBR in this film represent yet another recycled rehash of inaccurate information.
Unlike a fictitious place such as Xanadu, the reality of Iraq, regardless of any political opinion or agenda, requires support and dedication that KBR is proud to continue providing to U.S. and coalition forces."
