Well if that was the case "Di" would be termed collateral damage. I tend to believe that was the case.

It's not surprising that belief in Diana's murder is a majority view considering the outpouring of mawkishness when she died. They don't want to believe that someone so young and perceived as so saintly could die by accident.

I felt sad when she died and was shocked too, (it was so unexpected) but couldn't "get" the level of hysteria surrounding the funeral. Thought the film "The Queen" pointed out this fact very well -it wasn't really the "British" way was it? Whatever happened to the old stiff upper lip?
Was it really all due to Tony Blair's new "touchy/feely" approach - did it mark a decline or was the country already on the slippery slope and beginning to lose it's back-bone?

I don't think Barry George would be too pleased to hear that no one has been prosecuted for that murder. OK there is no conviction at the moment but George was tried and convicted but the conviction was quashed after three appeals. He was then tried again and acquitted.

It wasn't really hysteria. Well not the sort of wailing, and shouting you see on the news, when people die in some Latin/Islamic countries.

It was definitely a very weird mood that week, the likes of which I've never experienced before.

The day of the funeral was a beautiful morning, and for London, despite the crowds, eerily silent for our capital city, without the usual drone of traffic. Even the birds were silent. Probably spooked by the hushed masses, stood underneath their trees.

It certainly wasn't how the British normally behave.

Stiff upper lips were discarded, and stranger comforted stranger. As you might hope would happen, after some terrible incident, such as a terrorist attack.

To see thousands of people stand up, and applaud her brother's eulogy, was quite a sight.

All very odd.

I don't know why lots of people went a bit loopy, but I don't think it will ever happen again.

Lips have stiffened, once more.

When anyone dies at a young age, it's very sad.

With Diana, because of the media coverage there'd been about her, for nearly two decades, everyone seemed to think they knew her personally, even if they didn't particularly like her.

That's the only explanation I can come up with, about the mood of the nation that week.

As to was she murdered.

Dodi was a bit of a summer fling.

You'd have thought her two year affair with Hasnat Khan, and her stated intention to marry him, might have been the time to 'take her out'.

I think most people will agree its always sad to here of some ones death whether you know them personally or not, but what I couldn't really get my head round was the fact that so many people were stood on the streets of London actually crying as if their closest relative or friend had died, It was a sad occasion and without doubt could have been avoided for many reasons, but if is a very big word, if only. Its close on 15 years since she died and she's still not at rest, time to put it to rest once and for all

Agreed, but there aren't that many people alive today who personally knew Jesus.

Doesn't stop millions harking on about his untimely death every year.

Let him rest in peace.

Well let's hope he can, seeing as he missed the end of the world.

You've also got to remember that when he came to earth he knew exactly when he was going to die and how (daddy had told him)he came down on earth to die for use sinners allegedly, personally I think it would have taken more than one visit to achieve that

The issue is and why I brought it up - it's the Queens Diamond Jubilee and they are all out waving their little flags. I'm left wondering if the system at what ever level had the mother of the 2 Princes bumped off and everyones Oblivious to it!

The issue is; if Diana was alive, would she be a problem to this Royal Charade??? I think she probably would have been a problem to them and that is one motive for it to have happened. My gut feeling tells me she was, more than any other conspiracy theory! The poll say 72% yes - so a lot of people agree.

No doubt that will be explained away as a Double or Tripple Bluff, or maybe 'that's what they would expect us to do...." type thing or some other.

Personally I love the ignore any rebuttal, such as No Seat Belts being worn by any occupant although the right hand seat front passenger survived, thanks to Mercedes Benz Airbags. Of course it then follows if the Rear Right hand seat passenger had been wearing a seatbelt she would have survived a very survivable car crash.
Or the issue with the French emergency services in particular The SMUR and the fact they treat emergencys different to most of the rest of the world ( dammed French!)
But of course no one said she was not killed, but you get slated if you question a opinion and back that up with some facts.

I don't have to remember, being an atheist.

He was just some nice hippy, who's had a very successful P.R. campaign carried out in his name, in the years following his death.



I can't explain the grief we saw after Diana's death.

Perhaps some people have never experienced the untimely death of someone they knew personally, and like JFK, or Elvis, because of the media, felt some connection to a person they never knew.

Like I said, it was all very odd to witness, but can't imagine it happening again.
