Working in companies that have some Haram activities : working for Halliburton

السؤال

Dear Dr. Monzer, Assalamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh, Bismillah Al-Rahman Al-Raheem. I work for a company called Halliburton. This company is in the oil and gas business. However couple of years ago they merged, or in other terms, Halliburton bought a company called KBR. KBR is one of the largest contractors of the US army in Iraq and in other places of the world, providing services, shelter, accommodation and catering for the US army in exchange of the amount of money as agreed in the contracts (i.e. in a business fashion not out of supporting the US army). However, because this brought Halliburton a lot of controversies, Halliburton sold and completely separated from KBR early 2007 (before I started working for Halliburton). Although Halliburton might have gained a lot of profits from their subsidiary KBR work in Iraq. My question is does this by any means make my work with Halliburton Haram or the money that I gain from my work their not Halal ? Jazakum Allahu Khairan for your constant help
