Please read the piece carefully: "The following article highlights war profiteering by the Bush clan, but also mentions background information on Bush family oligarchs. Information on Neil Bush is excerpted here..."
The excerpt is from a longer article that details war profiteering activities among four family members of the Bush oligarchy, one of which is Neil Bush.
To connect some dots here, Neil Bush is bringing filthy money into Ukraine, under the guise of charity and infotech sector development, with the specific aim of maneuvering to friendly relations with Ukraine's president through the President's wife. It's just as easy to get the same sort of money from the Yanukovich clan's ill-gotten gains, which Yushchenko condemns.
Yanukovich and Company are the equivalent of Bush and Company. We can only hope that Ukraine's president and his wife have the good sense, insight, and understanding to be polite but steadfastly refuse personal and family business overtures from the Bush clan.
Regarding Halliburton, I have no idea where you got information that they're "pulling out" (presumably from Iraq.) They've lost no money, but they've stolen quite a bit, with the direct assistance of Cheney/Bush and Company. More than a billion dollars have been "overcharged" (stolen) by Halliburton so far*, while Cheney remains unabashedly on their payroll. He doesn't even bother to deny it.

WASHINGTON, June 27 - Democratic legislators stepped up criticism of the Halliburton Company on Monday for what they said was "war profiteering," citing Pentagon audits that question more than $1 billion of the company's bills for work in Iraq.
