The article discuss the oil balance of NAZI Germany in 37 - june 44.
The funny side is that some 50% of oil and petrolium products
were supplied by US based companies (the standard oil of New Jersey,
the standard oil of California and the Davis oil company) mainly via
Spain. This includes 100% of oil supply for NAZI subs operating in
Atlantic. All these operations were authorised by US government.

Care to mention, who the other big supplier of oil to Germany until 1941
was?

Pathetic attempt at diversion from a lamer. The USSR was a big supplier
of grain to Germany before 1941. It simply does not compare in the sort
of industrial and oil assistance offered the Nazis by eager western
companies (mainly American ones such as Ford and GM).

Yeah, you guys (Soviets) were just the main supplier of oil to Germany
from the time the U.S. entered the war until Barbarossa.

Err, wasn't Barbarossa (June 22 1941) *before* the entry of the US
(December 7 1941)?

Dang...of course you're right.

....from the beginning of the war in late '39 until Barbarossa. U.S. had
quit most fuel exports to Germany when the war began in Europe.
