Judge allows Chevron to access email metadata of 100 human rights workers
#3
Jan Klimkowski Wrote:So, if a part of the military-multinational-intelligence complex such as Chevron claims it is the victim of a "conspiracy", the US legal system takes this hugely seriously.

Quote:After more than eight months of silence, U.S. District Court Judge Lewis Kaplan recently issued a long-awaited decision on the enforceability of a subpoena served by Chevron on Microsoft in connection with Chevron's lawsuit claiming that it has been the victim of a conspiracy in the $18.2 billion judgment against it for massive environmental contamination in Ecuador.

Whereas most ordinary people might think that the real conspiracy is the massive environmental contamination of Ecuador....
Ah, but you are just a conspiracy theorist then....
Whereas the US knows the real conspiracy is that Ecuador is keeping all the oil that actually belongs to the US. Chevron are merely retrieving what is theirs by right. Ecuador can clean up their mess and say "thank you Chevron". If Ecuador wants oil they have to do it properly and buy it like every one else.
