Our inside sources also revealed that Halliburton has already broken ground on Freedom Towers, complete with a non-environmentally friendly footprint. Company reps told us that Halliburton hopes to attract other elite, prestigious buyers, like Britney Spears, Michael Jackson, Scooter Libby and former Enron execs.

Condos will include bullet-proof windows, 24-hour, AK47-armed security guards as well as an Olympic-sized swimming pool and full-service spa.

"Halliburton is committed to building quality structures in high-risk areas," said one candid company representative. "We think a lifestyle condominium in the Green Zone will appeal to a diverse group of buyers -­ not only Washington insiders, but Hollywood types as well. They both thrive in living conditions where corruption runs rampant, so the Green Zone will be perfect for them."

Celebrities are already trying to get their hands on this latest real-estate trend. "Paris Hilton has already made inquiries," said a high-profile Hollywood real-estate agent. "With all that vast open space in the Iraqi desert, there will be plenty of room for her Chihuahuas to run and play."

Will Lohan and Spears end up in the same complex as the Bush twins? Trust the McGill Enquirer to keep you posted! n

The market for green zone housing is exploding, despite the fact that insurance companies will not cover "acts of Allah".

This is new to me. Little did I know this kind of place still exist in Iraq despite the fact that the place was once in chaos. It's good to hear that they were able to get back to normal and were able to build luxury condos. (Continued…)
