IRAQ WAR PROFITEERS IN THE SPOTLIGHT, OTHERS OFF THE RADAR

now to the occupation. In occupied Iraq, some U.S. groups that organized
against the war are now organizing to monitor the corporations being awarded contracts to rebuild that country. At the same time back in the U.S. other lucrative defense contracts are underreported. On June 30, the Aerospace Testing Alliance, a partnership among Jacobs Sverdrup, General Physics Corp., and Computer Science Corp., was awarded a $2.9 billion contract for work at Arnold Air Force Base in Tennessee.
