Halliburton "may have" bribed Nigerian officials to the tune of $180M

So now we are going from complete denial to a possible bribe. Interesting how $180M could just go missing without anyone recognizing it had disappeared. Employees of Kellogg Brown & Root, both current and former, will be sent subpoenas. If this case was only being followed in the US we would have watched this one get swept under the carpet much like the case against W years ago. In this instance though, French and UK courts are on the case so it is tougher to ignore. No wonder Bush has been so close to Obasanjo at world summits. If Halliburton loses, remember that bribery is a federal offense and it could involve jail time.
