PORT HARCOURT, Nigeria - A gunman on a motorcycle shot dead a U.S. oil executive in an apparently planned assassination in Nigeria's oil heartland on Wednesday, authorities said.
Militants who have been waging a five-month-long campaign against the oil industry said they had no hand in the killing of the executive, who worked for Texan oil services company Baker Hughes. A diplomat and oil industry source said it was more likely to be linked to a work-related dispute.
"The American was shot by a man on a motorcycle. The motorcycle pulled up beside him and shot him," Samuel Agbetuyi, Rivers State Police Commissioner, told Reuters in the southern city of Port Harcourt, where the attack happened.
A spokesman for Baker Hughes, which drills wells and performs other services for major oil companies, confirmed an employee was shot on his way to work on Wednesday.

Israeli agents used poisoned chocolate to assassinate a senior Palestinian terrorist in the 1970s, according to a new book.
"Striking Back," an expose of Mossad reprisals by Israeli intelligence veteran Aaron Klein, contains a chapter about the killing of Wadi Haddad, chief of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine.
Wanted for masterminding several airline hijackings, Haddad took refuge in Iraq in 1976.
But Mossad intelligence agents, using a Palestinian turncoat, managed to slip him Belgian chocolates coated in a slow-acting poison that killed him over the course of a few months, Klein claims.

Palestinian Authority Chairman Yasser Arafat was poisoned by Israel, one of his advisers said Sunday.
The option is being seriously considered by the PA, which has sent blood samples to the US and Germany to confirm or rule out the option, he said.Arafat suffers symptoms similar to those of former PFLP military leader Wadi'a Hadad, he said.
Hadad was poisoned in the late 1970s by a close aide who was allegedly recruited by the Mossad, the adviser said, although the official reason for his death was cancer.
"It took Hadad eight weeks to die... he also entered a coma", he said, "Unless they find an antidote, Arafat will die," he added.

The current 'crisis' regarding Iran's nuclear ambitions is nothing more than a facilitator for war.
The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has just released a report concerning Iran's nuclear programme, in which it notes that Iran has failed to comply with the UN security council's demands to cease its nuclear enrichment programmes. The IAEA report finds that Iran has, in defiance of the security council, in fact carried out a successful test to enrich uranium to the low levels needed in the production of nuclear energy. The IAEA also found that Iran had failed to provide a level of cooperation and transparency necessary for the IAEA to exclude the possibility of an Iranian nuclear weapons programme being carried out under the guise of civilian nuclear energy activities.

"This is what we know and this is what we'll do if you continue to do nothing"If the visit to Washington last week by the head of Mossad, Israel's intelligence agency, was not enough to communicate Israel's growing impatience with the international community's failure to deal with Tehran's unchecked development of nuclear technology and bellicose threats to wipe the Jewish state "off the map," Ehud Olmert, prime minister designate, made it clear yesterday by denouncing Iran's president as a "psychopath" and comparing him to Hitler.
Mossad chief Meir Dagan, in Washington last week in preparation for a visit to the U.S. by Olmert on May 23, held secret meetings with U.S. officials to discuss Iran's nuclear program, reports the London Times. While details of the meetings were not revealed, it is believed Dagan met with his counterparts at the CIA, the Pentagon and the National Security Council.
"Dagan is not given to small talk and niceties," said an Israeli intelligence source, who believes Dagan's message to Washington policy makers was simple and blunt: "This is what we know and this is what we'll do if you continue to do nothing."
Comment: Let there be no mistake about the real identities of the motivators behind the entire War on the Middle East.
According to a book published by German journalist Jurgen Cain Kulbel, the United States and Israel could be linked to the assassination of the former Lebanese prime minister, Rafik Hariri
Yesterday, in comments by the new Israeli PM Ehud Olmert, we were provided with an important lesson in, and example of, essential psychopathy:
Comment: Sounds like the same kind of scurrilous tactics used by the Mossad to murder Yasser Arafat in November 2004. In fact, even the Jeruslaem Post reported that Arafat had symptoms very similar to the abovementioned Wadi Haddad who was murdered by Mossad poision...
