Just been reading the BBC news site and came across this story.

I cannot believe that whilst there's still a war going on, some US fat cat is complaining that european manufacturers might get some business out of the rebuilding of iraq.

I read something similar about contracts to provide electricity, gas, phone services, water treatment were all given to US companies. It just reaffirms my opinion that it's all just 'jobs for the boys'. Even the UK (who've had far too many soldiers killed by US friendly fire) are left out of these contract negotiations.

Greedy money grabbing bastards....
