Hats off to Mr Greenwald for exposing the truth on what's really going on in Iraq! Is the situation getting better or worse? You be the judge! I've spent time in Iraq and when my buddies & I watched this movie it really hit home for those of us who wear the uniform. There's no need for all these contractors to be over there. Pull the troops out and let the civilians win this thing! The movie should have also touched on what the Gov't of Iraq is doing to help its own people. NOT MUCH!!! The U.S. has babysat this country too damn long! Now it's time for the Iraqis to stand own their own feet. We got our own issues to deal w/ in the U.S. Bottomline, war mean$ profit and the American taxpayers are being robbed!!!

Actually, it's great to be American. What a hypocrite you are! How about cleaning your own house before pointing fingers. Just how many Australian companies are profiting from this war? Worely Group have a US$800 million contract with the Parson corporation to "rebuild" oil infrastructures in northern Iraq.Queensland-based Morris Corporation has secured a deal worth more than $100 million to establish catering support services for Coalition troops stationed in Iraq. Australian Wheat Board have remaining contracts under the Oil-for-Food Program, valued at more than $350 million.SAGRIC International and the CSIRO, as part of a US-led consortium, won a contract to rehabilitate Iraq's agriculture, which is valued at up to $155 million. CSIRO is also involved in a pre-feasibility study to rehabilitate Iraq's Southern Marshes.I could go on and on, but I don't fault Australian companies for helping rebuild Iraq. God Bless 'em!

As a contemporary military historian, I had high hopes for this film. On many accounts, it's informative, though largely it seems to demonize the companies that provide services in Iraq. I won't debate whether or not the film raises valid points, but I do wish to comment on the section regarding Blackwater. In the film, they interview the families of two of the Blackwater contractors that were killed in Fallujah. While moving, the comments of the families aren't informed. The comments are used as if they fact, when in actuality, they are speaking with heavy emotion, and aren't fully aware of all the details. I find it to be amateur documentary style to use a highly emotionally charged interview as a suggestion of fact, and I suggest all who watch this film keep that in mind.

Iraq For Sale is a truly horrifying documentary about the state of war profiteering in Iraq as allowed or encouraged by Washington in the United States. Not to be misunderstood or understated, it is terrifying how reckless the companies mentioned in the film (Halliburton et al) act towards their customers (US Military) and their employees in pursuit of the mighty dollar. Sending out trucks on delivery missions empty because they can charge the government for sending them to the bases. Providing dubious contaminated water to the troops from their water treatment plants, and charging $100 to wash a bag of laundry to mention a few. What is even more terrifying is that the Pentagon just ignores the abuse or gives the companies a slap on the wrist for their trouble, all the while continuing to funnel billions or more dollars into their pockets. I used to accept that war was about ideology and defense, this documentary proved me wrong. War is about the pursuit of wealth and power!
