I thought I read before that Haliburton had the contract and was charging $2 something a gallon??? Didn't we talk about that before?

Please explain the part where you somehow read the same story at that link and seem to be trying to equate drivers in Iraq paying a nickel a gallon and the U.S. military.
I ask, because the insurgents are mentioned numerous times as causing the Iraq government problems with their attacks.....you know, middle easterners against middle easterners....and the story is about Halliburton ::)

I thought Haliburton was selling gas to the military in Iraq under contract for ~$2 a gallon. Right? I thought we had confirmed that somewhere before when discussing them.
I was just wondering if that contract is still going? Or are we now "self serve" and paying $0.05 a gallon? It's a heck of a markup if Haliburton is doing "full serve" for $1.95 a gallon.
So my question is... How much are we paying for gas there? The link says gas is available for $0.05...
