Shell: We are sorry

[superpenisist]

...we are sorry.....sorry about this, this and this and now lets go to the buissness again..))

[shinekumar73]

Your Face tells us You are not Sorry ..but You are Still GREEDY ! FY.

[Theophilus200]

@shinekumar73 I think, you, like a lot of people. did not realize this was not actually Shell, but a group attempting to embarrass Shell into making a real statement of this nature. I don't know if Shell has enough conscience to be embarrassed by this, but you never know.

[rapsta86]

Shell is acting like they are doing the moral and upstanding thing by coming out with their CRIMES! it is only because they got busted by the world, and they cannot hide it anymore that they decide to "do the right thing."Money=freedom. freedom to mass murder for the sake of some imaginary currency, based on confidence, called the dollar.

[sierracuban]

NO TRUTH has ever come out of the mouths of oil company, or tobacco company spokesmen......ALL, LIES, LIES, LIES.........Sierra Cuban, Miami, Florida, U.S.A.

( You are sorry ?????? BULLSHIT ! ! )

[FishYoBassOff]

This is fake. The Guy giving the speech is one of the Yes Men.

[aawvcw11]

sell.



[kadoso1986]

after being sorry you caused another major oil spill you are not sorry you need to be charged 50billion dollar just as America charged Bp!

[alienskinboots]

sorry? 

[snowfallzz]

what a soulless fuck. where's his butt buddies Tim Gheitner and Rahm Emmanual? who are trying to get us into WW3 with China and Russia r now? Wonder why this didn't make the networks eh?

[heikeization]

FUCK YOU !!!!!!!! YOU ARE NOT SORRY

[TheFlutevisions]

He didn't mention anything about the killings. The hit squad hired by Shell. People were murder.

I'm sorry but Shell is sorry.

[pbuotte]

Non-subliminal SELL message in the background...

[kathrynk007]

First time I have ever heard of the yes men. Sar-Wiwa's family was awarded 1.5 million (out of court, of course) by Shell, though they never admitted guilt (really, by paying they did). Gotta love it.....murder and pay-offs.....and they arrest the mob. What's the difference between the two? None.

[kathrynk007]

Yet none of them will be convicted. Sorry????? I hate them.

[MinimoviesInc]

@kathrynk007 This is not shell, it's one of the Yes Men.

[kathrynk007]

Fuck you Shell. I hope you rot in hell.

[MrTranscend1]

thieves and war criminals should be put against a wall at dawn

[JeDaaRe1]

FUCK SHELL!

[ebbtides]

RIP ken saro-wiwa

[pioneerz450]

Welcome to (S)hell

[asunshinegirl2009]

I have not heard the I'm sorry... In California ... as of this post date. March 28 .. I'm sorry that everyone claps to soon. They have it fixed it yet.

[suspendmeassholes]

BLAME =

1. YOU (population).

2. The elected officials YOU elect which take bribes to close their eyes.

3. And finally all the oil companies which are assholes but are doing what they do best which is making money. They are not charities. They are a business operation which will try to cut corners to make more money BUT it is you who elect the puppets that let them get away with it.

If it was not Shell it would be some other asshole company doing it. Get it through your head.

[MinimoviesInc]

@suspendmeassholes Alright, then get rid of all the corporations. Theres your solution.

[suspendmeassholes]

@MinimoviesInc Did you bother to read my statement at all? Getting rid of corporations will accomplish nothing. Even if these companies were state owned they would still cut corners.

[MinimoviesInc]

@suspendmeassholes Make them people owned. Then if they "cut corners", it's because the collective owners want that. Yes, co-operatives.

[suspendmeassholes]

@MinimoviesInc You are dreaming. How old are you?

[MinimoviesInc]

@suspendmeassholes Why am I dreaming? Look, flinging around baseless statements and insults will get us nowhere, at least offer a well-based counterargument.

[suspendmeassholes]

@MinimoviesInc Ok then, explain what you mean by people owned first. How would it work?

[MinimoviesInc]

@suspendmeassholes Workplaces are organised by their respective workers. They decide what to produce/provide and how. There would be no traditional hierarchal organisational structure. Instead, the people working there have an equal say in the running of the business. This may not eliminate corruption outright, but reduces the risk, as is proven by existing co-operative businesses. Evidently, the wages and standards of living for the workers increases, usually.

[lizardgizzard108]

If they fucking touch Alaska I'm gonna kill them

[ofnotandi]

Get more views. 18K is way to low.

[Stalknyourmom]

I wouldn't know how to react if this were to actually happen. It would make me too suspicious...

[Mindbender05]

These guys should get more views and more public attention. 17K views is way too low :(

[megafuze08]

@Mindbender05 i totally agree. these guys are awesome

[cartex12]

dam i want this to happen so bad, this shit made me teary and its not even real!

[jagara1]

You can see many of the journalists present know that this is a send-up!

[RainmanCT]

street teams? lol

[ChristineLK]

Saying sorry won't bring back all the people that died and got abused unfairly because of Shell, such as Ken Saro-Wiwa... just saying.

[Chriodor69]

there's a black guy in the background

[AvaLindOfficial]

@Chriodor69 so... what does that have do with anything!?

[Chriodor69]

@AvaLindOfficial cuz shell is missing a finger

[nukewashington]

love these guys

[DerInternet]

photoshop!

[dlapio]

His head blocks out the H, which makes shell look like Sell...

[acefabregas]

yes men to the rescue!!!

[ausendundeinenacht]

@acefabregas Niger Delta Hoax

On March 28, 2010, THIS video was released with the title "Shell: We are sorry". A man called Bradford Houppe, from the Ethical Affairs Committee at Royal Dutch Shell gave a four minute long apology to the people of the Niger Delta for ruining their land, water, and communities.;;;;)

[krevice]

can you believe over half of america if they saw this would call these guys commies and defend shell. if we don't unstupify ourselves we are fucked

[ausendundeinenacht]

@krevice yeah, RIGHT

Some of course got to accuse The Yes Men of committing fraud.

Although the Yes Men have not been arrested for fraud, they have been arrested for unrelated offenses during their events. Bichlbaum was arrested for an outstanding parking ticket at one of his Survivaball rallies.

Talk of PETTY;;;;

and STOOPID in the long run, as it makes themlook shitty...and petty, for want of another word

as You said we ve got to UNstupefy,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,­,,,,,

[kathrynk007]

@krevice

All too true. It's like chickens making friends with Colonel Sanders and happily following him into the slaughterhouse.

[kathrynk007]

@krevice

I know, right?

[ContagiouslyParanoid]

So how did Shell actually react?

[paultaw]

Isn't it a shame that it's fake! Help to campaign to make it a reality!

[axyelp]

muh ha ha ha!

yes men!!! how do i publicize this stuff!!! mass publicizing!

[xcarebearx007]

is it just me, or did he NEVER actually say anything about stopping/improving practices? it seems like he said for 2 years, they'll "look at what they did wrong"

[Narwal88]

These people are Bichlbaum and Bonanno (at least, those are their official names). They operate as the "Yes Men" to expose corporate greed and callousness all over the world. They did it with Dow Chemical in relation to the Bhopal tragedy.

[ausendundeinenacht]

@Narwal88 ADDITIONALLY On October 19, 2009, the Yes Men spoofed the United States Chamber of Commerce, declaring a U-turn on their climate change policy. UNFORTUNATELY the Yes Men were not able to complete the conference without being exposed as a hoax, although their message that the United States Chamber of Commerce needs to reevaluate their direction in terms of clean energy was their primary concern and was received.;....

[LimbicTides]

It's the Yes Men. It's an awareness-raising stunt.

[StrangeIsMyWorld]

@LimbicTides No its not a "stunt" That belittles the level of organization and planning that goes into this. If it is anything, it is a satire based protest and its legit.

[LimbicTides]

@StrangeIsMyWorld Deep breath, brosephina. Keep the rabid enthusiasm down to a dull roar. What these guys do is amazing, but I promise...their cocks don't jizz sweet, sweet marshmallow and chocolate.

[StrangeIsMyWorld]

@LimbicTides Hey thats exactly how your mum described the taste of my cum...

[surgeyX]

lol nice

[em26co]

viva shell apologises :-)))

[bulucette]

BLESSED YES MEN! cri

[femiluv]

The yes men....

[ubridzo]

he is "Vice-President of the Ethical Affairs Committee at Shell"what's he beein doing all this time ??

[Exundhob]

@ubridzo: He is the Vice-President and where the hell is his Boss?!

[nexsolost]

Siete solo dei buffoni. Centinaia si morti non sono una dannata statistica. Volete salvarvi il culo perché la gente ha saputo solo ora dei vostri casini? E prima? Mi fate pena...

[astolennova]

April Fools?

[SoulJuiceTV]

is it really true?? i certainly hope so, and that others follow this lead.

[smeejit]

Ethical Affairs + Royal Dutch Shell? Like oil & water, don't mix.

It will take much more than 'Sorry' - they need to work to mend the damage done in Nigeria & Erris, Ireland, in pursuit of obscene profits.

Remember Ken Saro-Wiwa & his 8 companions, hanged in Nigeria in 1995 at Shell's wish.....

[ausendundeinenacht]

@smeejit t will take much more than 'Sorry'" iiN FACT ONE IT COMES TO A POINT TO SAY sorry IT S ALREADY GONE TOO FAR

they need to work to mend the damage done in Nigeria & Erris, Ireland,

WHAT HAPPENED THERE?

in pursuit of obscene profits.

the profit motive has been around forever the socalled elites will NEVER stop , only BE stopped!!!!!

"Remember Ken Saro-Wiwa & his 8 companions, hanged in Nigeria in 1995 at Shell's wish.....Yeah I remember that; i think his son continues the fight..

[abrokenlife]

Hopefully this isn't for the show-off.

Please DO THE RIGHT THING...irrespective of the corruption of our sheer leaders.

I'll be back again in 2 years for reviewing.

[deormayoks]

@abrokenlife

This is a confirm hoax. Don't be deceived

[etawonder]

I love this. I am a Niger-Deltan. Proudly Naija
