Halliburton's Army

How a Well-Connected Texas Oil Company Revolutionized the Way America Makes War

By Pratap Chatterjee


From Halliburton's vital mission as the logistical backbone of the U.S. occupation in Iraq—without it there could be no war or occupation—to its role in covering up gang-rape among its personnel in Baghdad, Halliburton's Army is a devastating exposé of corporate malfeasance and political cronyism. In shocking detail it shows how Halliburton and its former subsidiary Kellogg, Brown & Root (KBR) really do business in Iraq, and around the world.

Watch Pratap Chatterjee discuss Halliburton's Army on Democracy Now! with Amy Goodman.

How a Well-Connected Texas Oil Company Revolutionized the Way America Makes War

By Pratap Chatterjee


From Halliburton's mission as the logistical backbone of the U.S. occupation in Iraq—without it there could be no war or occupation—to its role in covering up sexual abuse among its personnel in Baghdad, Halliburton's Army is a devastating exposé of corporate malfeasance and political cronyism.

"A sordid tale of politics and profiteering... A report that deserves many readers, about matters that deserve many indictments."
Kirkus
