Comments on: Iraqi woman fired after refusing sex with her KBR boss http://mssparky.com/2009/11/iraqi-woman-fired-after-refusing-sex-with-her-kbr-boss/ Mon, 15 Mar 2010 00:27:36 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: for-what-it's-worth http://mssparky.com/2009/11/iraqi-woman-fired-after-refusing-sex-with-her-kbr-boss/comment-page-1/#comment-5745 for-what-it's-worth Mon, 16 Nov 2009 01:22:48 +0000 http://mssparky.com/?p=5928#comment-5745 I believe in what the Bible has told us. I believe that guilty KBR employees no matter on what level that committed SINS on this HOLY LAND, will pay a price that goes beyond the grave. This is also true of any company or government that knowingly allowed crimes of any magnitude to occur. I never forgot where I was or what I did while in Iraq - most of civilization started in Iraq and that region. Just watched a 60minutes segment about the Garden of Eden - that part of Iraq that Saddam destroyed by stopping the water flow from the Tigris and Euphrates - but it is slowly coming back with the help of an Iraqi Engineer who left Iraq and came to this country and after 25 years - went back to help this region that he was born and lived. Very heart-warming. I drove this part of Iraq, saw what war did, Saddam did - but - it will return as it once was. I will never forget. I believe in what the Bible has told us.

Even more frightening is the potential to create future diplomatic and foreign relations problems for the United States. Perhaps it already has: "KBR was among the earliest contractors in Iraq and has $33 billion in contracts to support American bases. Yet it has not had any contracts with the Iraqi government to support those facilities when they’re handed over — or for that matter, to build anything else in the country." At the very least this is an embarrassment for Americans and in this case their British allies, on a global scale. The DoD, DoJ, DoS should be ashamed of themselves for condoning this behavior by their inaction and failure to prosecute.

That's like KBR performing their own electrical inspections or KBR performing their criminal investigations!! How honest are they going to be?
