Halliburton and Dubai: A matter of semantics.


OK, so which is it? (emphasis added)

Halliburton moving headquarters to Dubai

Halliburton Co., the energy services giant and controversial defense contractor, said Sunday it is opening a new corporate headquarters in Dubai in the Middle East.

The change from Houston to the United Arab Emirates by the world's second largest oil-field services provider was announced by Chief Executive Dave Lesar at an energy conference in neighboring Bahrain.

Hello! So is this a move? Or simply opening another corporate HQ? Kind of a big difference there, no?

No confusion. Its a move. They would've said "opened a new headquaters building" if it were only one building.

But in Dubai, everything is the most luxurious and expensive in the world.

I just wish they could've taken Dick "Go f*ck yourself" Cheney with them. It would have made America a better country.
