US company in Iraq accused of malpractice - 30 Apr 08

It is being called the Baghdad Bubble.

That is new business opportunities in Iraq following the US-led invasion.

One American company, L-3 Titan has won multi-million dollar contracts to provide translating services to troops.

But a corporate watchdog claims many Titan employees have poor language skills, and are not properly trained for combat zones, potentially putting lives at risk.

Al Jazeera's John Terrett reports.

This is how the American taxpayer is being screwed and lied to. Where is the national media in all this? Thank you AlJazeera for telling us the truth.

Those "terps" put their lives on the line just like us soldiers. Most of my terps were fluent in English and Arabic because they were Arab-born engineers who studied in Britain or England and cared about Iraq.

I know this may be very hard for some of you to understand, but some of the people serving in Iraq truly care about Iraq and its future.

the MIC controlled mainstream media has you grabbing the tiger by the tail..not in a way to stop it, But only SEEMING to hurt. When if fact it truly is helping the aggression. It makes you ignore the important things. Things which WILL successfuly stop it by blocking it's path.

And ignore important things which are right in front of our faces. Things which would not naturally be ignored.

-look carefully

The Nazi-American-Style

You invade a country that never harmed you. To Destroy the infrastructure, Kill millions. kill the taxi drivers, shepards, journalists, workers water medical, electric, roads, farmers, fisheries, ..ect. Making whatever survivors helpless, dependant on begging to live

And then you BRAG about 'giving' them help as you set up and protect your own corporate profiting via your own armed Forces + civilian mercenaries. A war crime.

Economic Colonization Is A War Crime

Dude, we aren't getting any fucking oil from Iraq. Your argument is SO three fucking years ago. Iraq posts surplus budgets in the billions from it's own oil revenues. The U.S has gained nothing from the invasion and subsequent occupation, and lost everything. Get a fucking clue.

Indeed, fuck you and the 3 legged, HIV infected Nag you rode in on.
