There are multiple problems across the board in the rebuilding efforts in Iraq. The government comptroller said this morning, among other things, that there is massive corruption in the government and among some American contractors, read Halliburton: There is a huge discrepancy between the oil being pumped and the revenues it should generate. If things continue as they are, it will only get worse because there is no method in place to make anybody accountable. Foreinstance, presently contractors are being paid based on “effort” rather than results, a situation he found deplorable.
