USAID defense secret bids to rebuild Iraq

Article Abstract:

The US Agency for International Development defends preselected bids for rebuilding Iraq claiming, in the name of national security, the agency does not have time for a vetting process during war. The rebuilding campaign is still mysterious as war rages but Bechtel, Oarsons and Halliburton's Kellogg Root & Brown are lead competitors. No contracts will go to foreign countries, even Britain.
