FROM “SHELL PENSIONER”
12 December 2008
Dear Mussaint and Nowrooz, your postings warrant a short reply. Have no fear, I am not suffering and have my private finances taken care off and zero worries there. Mussaint, I believe that they dropped to 85% (under 105% all alarm bells start and they need to go hat in hand to the authorities and do things) because they overinvested in stocks. And this brings me to the point I tried to make: Shell was endeared some years ago to the MBA jargon of consultants and other idiot gurus and introduced a.o. Olympic Targets. You remember them: citius, altius, fortius (faster, higher, stronger). Couple this to the preferred attitude as fostered by Brinded et all of Promise is better than Performance and you have a recipe for disaster.
And all the old codgers are still around and looking innocent. They simply do not feel shame. And yes, I have sent a letter or an email two years ago to the pensionfund asking them why not hive off the surplus and invest that in super safe and dull bonds. The pompous reply was that I need not worry, should look at their track record, they employed the best professionals in the world, were way within the legal limits and basically told me politely to piss off and mind my own business, all was well and I should look at the long term. Unfortunately I dont have a copy anymore.
And Nowrooz, I hope I sufficiently explained why I posted this chat? I am not moaning about my own pension, I indeed have more than enough. But if you still take exception: I noticed many postings from you on this chatbox. My question to you: there are a few billion people who are hungry every day and yet you are wasting your time on posting chats on Donovans site! Why dont you spend your time better and relieve some of that suffering?
And Mr. Donovan, you seem to have a direct line to Wiseman. Perhaps you could ask him to confirm or otherwise the rumour I have picked up a few weeks ago that Shell in this credit crisis has borrowed money from the Pensionfund or made the Pensionfund invest in some projects. If that is correct, I would like to see the opinion of Mr Wiseman on the ethics of this. No doubt it is within the law, but is it ethical?

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.














IN JULY 2007, MR BILL CAMPBELL (ABOVE, A RETIRED GROUP AUDITOR OF SHELL INTERNATIONAL SENT AN EMAIL TO EVERY UK MP AND MEMBER OF THE HOUSE OF LORDS:
