Saw a news story today, 9/14/08, about the Defense Department selling Billions of dollars of weapons to Iraq.

This of course seems shady since we sold weapons to Iraq in the early 80’s and then went in and destroyed them and also sold weapons to the Taliban a decade ago and then went in and destroyed them.

Can anyone tell me specifically what American companies are benefiting from this? I see that many of the airplanes are from Lockheed Martin.
