Petulant Bushies to cancel three "Iraqi" oil deals
Iraq's oil minister, Dick Cheney Thamir Ghadhban, announced yesterday that three oil production contracts signed by the previous regime with Russian and Chinese companies would be either terminated or frozen.

The move seems likely to plunge Iraq into complex international litigation, just days after the United Nations voted to end sanctions against Iraq.

Thamir Ghadhban is the Bush Cartel-appointed oil minister. He is being advised by Phillip J. Carroll, the former Shell executive chosen by the Pentagon. - link.
