Permanent war...

Did you ever wonder where your tax dollars go when they are not used to bail out billionaire bankers? Why they are being spent in preparation for our never ending war against terror. More big contracts for Halliburton and other such companies putting to bed the lie about ever leaving the Middle East in our lifetime. The military-industrial complex is alive and doing very well thank you. You won't see this on FOX, MSNBC or CNN either. Click on the map to better follow where these bases are being built.



Defense Dollars Building Boom: Pentagon Looks to Construct New Military Bases in Central Asia


The Pentagon is preparing to embark on a mini-building boom in Central Asia. A recently posted sources-sought survey indicates the US military wants to be involved in strategic construction projects in all five Central Asian states, including Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan.

In perhaps the highest-profile project, the Pentagon intends to construct an anti-terrorism training center in southern Kyrgyzstan. The facility was originally intended to be built in Batken. But now it appears that it will be situated in Osh.

According to the notice posted on the Federal Business Opportunities (FBO) website in mid-May, the US Army Corps of Engineers wants to hear from respondents interested in participating in “large-scale ground-up design-build construction projects in the following Central South Asian States (CASA): Kazakhstan; Kyrgyzstan; Tajikistan; Turkmenistan; and Uzbekistan.”

“We anticipate two different projects in Kyrgyzstan. Both are estimated to be in the $5 million to $10 million dollar range,” the announcement said. It added that up to $5 million each was earmarked for Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan. It also listed two separate proposals for Tajikistan, one valued at up to $5 million, the other worth up to $10 million.
