A burden was lifted from Halliburton's Kellogg Brown & Root subsidiary last week when the Justice Department agreed to a wrist-slap $8 million settlement for double billing and other fraud in contracts to support our troops in Kosovo way back in 1999 and 2000.
(When Dick Cheney was CEO, but had no knowledge of any such contract in the Balkans - or their offshore contract to supply Iran IRAN with oil field construction.)

Now all Halliburton needs to get past are the Nigerian bribery charges and Iraq fraud and Afghanistan fraud and then they can rid themselves of their remaining 80% stake in KBR by giving it away to unsuspecting shareholders.
