So glad to be finally back online after nearly 3yrs. It felt like like going
back to stonhenge days. : }}

Did we get it? The German bombs that fell on London came thanks to EXXON/ESSO/Standard Oil! Luftwaffe COULDN'T FLY without the fuel additives supplied by Standard Oil who, together with DuPont, held the patents to it and was the main producer of it! In 1938 and '39 as late as weeks before attacks on London began, the American giant had sold (via its British subsidiary !!!!) tetraethyl lead for at least $35 million to Germany. The German bombers could have flown big streamers after the planes saying "This is a gift coming to you courtesy of Standard Oil!" "Invest in Standard Oil stock if you survive our bombs!"



My dad would have defended Swedish borders better had he used his rifle to gun down his company's Walter C. Teagle and the rest of Standard Oil's board of directors. It might have been too late to save some Londoners but it might have stopped Standard Oil's export of high-quality oils for German tanks and thus saved some tens of thousands of Russians! Not to mention the collaboration on patents for synthetic rubber with IG Farben, otherwise best known as producer of concentration camp gas Zyklon B that killed some millions Jews. Mr. Teagle was absent in Nuremberg. But we still love to buy our gas at our friendly EXXON/Mobil! If Polish grandpa was stupid enough to be in the way of a Stuka attack in '39, we can at least comfort ourselves that it was good old American additives to the fuel that made it possible! British who had a loved one or dear relative killed by a bomb from a German Heinkel in those days can thank American tetraethyl lead, eat their livers and shut their mouths in deference to the "special relationship" between themselves and the masters in Washington D.C. Standard Oil's Walter C. Teagle could have prevented the German planes from taking off, but he didn't!
