101st airborne division camps "forward base shell" and "exxon AS" in i

Two camps in Iraq of the 101st airborne division are called "forward base shell" and "exxon AS".
Two camps in Iraq of the 101st airborne division are called "forward base shell" and "exxon as" - not a surprise to anyone who knows that:

  • Vicepresident Dick Cheney used to be head of the board of the oil-industry supplier Halliburton.
  • Securitycouncel Condoleezza Rice, after which even an oil-vessel has been named, had been working for Chevron for a long time.
  • G.W.B. used to (?) have excellent connections to Enron-Boss Kenneth Lay (likes to call him Kenny Boy)
  • The energy and oil-industry was one of the biggest sponsors of Bushes campaign for presidency

These are refueling stations where fuel is stored for vehicles, and nicknames at that. This is the same thing as if the protesters erected a folding table on 5th and Market, stocked it full of food, and called it "Forward Base Rainbow Co-Op."
