Nazist wanted the autonomy of Europe from capitalism and communism: how could he create an indipendent Europe while he was a business partner with the Anglo-Dutch oil trusts??? Of course he couldn't. @Pelewis

I wonder if you will provide the supporting evidence from independent sources? There are plently of subjects about Shell including its greenwash advertising which has received appropriate fines in the UK and Holland. How about its conduct in Nigeria, plunder and pollution with broken promises year after year about ceasing gas flaring. The Ogoni trial against Shell gets underway in the USA in April.

Or thousands of Shell people killed in WW2? Or memorial room in the basement of Shell building in London? Or what happened to Shell oil tankers - and their part in convoys to Murmansk? Or rthe fact that Deterding was not part of Shell when he turned to nazi? I know Shell is not Mother Theresa, but let us be fair.

There were millions in Europe at the time. It wasn't a crime, you know. The film industry was loaded with communists in the 1930s. Ok, it useful to know, but it was not a crime either So…Shell had a pro-Nazi leader. There were millions in Europe at the time. It wasn’t a crime, you know.
