“The latest protest in support of the Rossport Five took place in Galway on Saturday when an estimated 1,000 people marched through the city to attend a rally at Spanish Arch.”

On Monday Shell announced that it would dismantle almost three kilometres of pipeline which it had welded together before receiving ministerial consent. Later the company announced plans to lay off a further 128 workers now that work on the Corrib gas pipeline has come to a halt. The redundancies are in addition to 91 workers already laid off in recent weeks
The five Mayo men jailed for their refusal to obey a High Court order not to obstruct the construction of the controversial pipeline remain in prison, with no end to the impasse in sight. Their relatives and supporters converged on Castlebar when the issue was due to be discussed by Mayo County Council. On the advice of council officials, the elected councillors voted 13-9 to reject a motion urging Shell to locate the gas terminal offshore. Legal advisors suggested that, had the motion been passed, the local authority could have found itself involved in costly legal action. The deputy county manager also said the passing of such a motion would make it difficult to attract further investment to the county.
Royal Dutch Shell conspired directly with Hitler, financed the Nazi Party, was anti-Semitic and sold out its own Dutch Jewish employees to the Nazis. Shell had a close relationship with the Nazis during and after the reign of Sir Henri Deterding, an ardent Nazi, and the founder and decades long leader of the Royal Dutch Shell Group. His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
