As many of you may know, a federal grand jury in Houston Texas is investigating whether Halliburton violated U.S. law by doing business with Iran, a state sponser of terrorism that really does possess weapons of mass destruction, while Cheney was CEO of the corporation. During Cheney's tenure as CEO, Halliburton set up a subsidiary in the Cayman Islands to do business with Iran, a state sponsor of terrorism. But this subsidiary apparently had no employees.
More below the fold.
It appears that this subsidiary Cayman was in fact merely a shell corporation used by its parent, Halliburton, to conduct business with Iran in contravention of U.S. law prohibiting such business dealings. CBS 60 Minutes did a show on this subject last August. Here's a link to their report:

However, I haven't heard anything about this probe recently. I hope that they come back with an indictment of Dick Cheney! Does anyone know what has happened to this grand jury probe?
