US Withholding Data On Iraq Contracts

Since March, the US has refused to release information to the IAMB (International Advisory and Monitoring Board) about no bid contracts awarded for rebuilding Iraq. The IAMB was created to oversee the handling of Iraqi oil revenues and has been conducting an independent audit on earnings and spending. They have discovered lax handling of contract payments and issues such as the fact that there is no meter on pipelines to measure the amount of Iraqi oil being exported. US authorities have so far refused to release copies of Halliburton contracts and others making it nearly impossible to confirm whether tax payer money was spent appropriately or not. Halliburton has already been in trouble for overcharging more than $65 million dollars in no bid contracts in Iraq and Afghanistan.
