Iraq and War Profiteering: What companies are profiting from the US actions in Iraq?

Newsdesk.org reports on a plan to create a government contracts database that would help bring profiteering to light.

Mainstream media rarely reports on the corporations profiting from the Iraq conflict, but the independent media has been watching. The Nation published an editorial as the war was just starting that compared Truman's vigiliance (about profiteering) to Bush's complacency. A year later, In These Times published a piece called, War Profiteering and You. The website of Corporate Watch, a nonprofit advocacy group, keeps an eye on reconstruction profiteers at this page: Corpwatch.org/reconstruction. Reporters from the group, United for a Fair Economy, put modern profiteering into context in a piece called, War Profiteering Starts at the Top, And a group is specifically watching the Halliburton company with reports at www.haliburtonwatch.org

Even the National Enquirer has a Perpetual War Portfolio of companies poised to profit most from the ongoing war on terror.
