Russia invites Shell back to Sakhalin as finances plummet

Shell’s Nigerian Settlement
THE NEW YORK TIMES
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Published: June 28, 2009
In the editorial Ending a Shell Game (June 24) you argue that Shells out-of-court settlement with Nigerian plaintiffs in Manhattan earlier this month saved costly embarrassment and the public airing of evidence of collusion and human rights abuses by the company in Nigeria. We see the matter differently.
We knew the charges against us were not true. And we were confident that the evidence would have shown this that Shell was not responsible for the tragic events of Nov. 10, 1995. The execution of nine leaders of the Ogoni people shocked us all. And we wanted others to see and understand that.

At Glengad in north Mayo yesterday, tourists must have thought they had strayed on to the set of a James Bond film. There were cameras, a helicopter, a mysterious ship and getaway boats. Several 4X4s and unmarked buses filled with police were on the land.
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.
