Controlling Iraqi Oil

Nick Mottern, for United Press International, writes about the preparations of American oil companies to sign contracts with Iraq: "Although the contracts are simply for services, not long-term production agreements, the contracts give the major oil companies a foot in the door. That they are no-bid contracts given to these Western firms over Russian, Chinese and Indian competitors is exceptional and clearly a matter of an occupied government responding to pressure from the occupier."
