I totally agree -lost my brother-in-law for the same reason 9 yrs ago.

Funny how all these icons who meet a premature death end up at the center of a murder conspiracy.

Unless, of course, they were 27 at the time and we know they just wanted to join the club...:rolleyes:

Re: Was Princess Diana Murdered?
 

it doesn't make any difference whether we think she was murdered or not.....it doesn't make her any less dead.

And a messy end it was too: well, "the paths of gory lead but to the grave";):D

Re: Was Princess Diana Murdered?
 

What you trying to say? Doesn't matter that it was written by these people it was based on fact - Michael X was a real character who was involved in murdering a Tories daughter, the bank job took place as stated. But as usual with many events can't be proved - reality is a strange beast.

People who do wrong are let off every day in court becasue they got a clever lawyer who picked holes in the evidence, so reality and events are often open to negotiation as there is many times there is just not enough witnesses and evidence to prove issues and what definately happened.

It is a path we all tread.......some of us at a sedate pace...others rush headlong into eternity.
I know what my choice is.

The old feller next door(just turned 80) said to me yesterday 'eh, there is nowt great about getting old'
I told him that it beats the hell out of the alternative!

I wasn't trying to say anything. Merely providing background to your post. If you wish to believe a movie, well that's up to you:D

Re: Was Princess Diana Murdered?
 

Sounds like those shows on tv which "document" the search for Nessie or the Sasquatch

... most of what is written, including fiction, is based on fact; if it were not, it wouldn't make any sense to a reader, or viewer. And I certainly don't think "reality" is all that appropriate. Whenever there's a high profile death, there's always a "grassy knoll" lurking around so that sensationalists can make a whole bunch of money. She was a celeb, ok; but celebs die ordinary deaths too ... drunk driver; no seatbelt: ordinary and stupid.

Thanks guys for saving me having to put down my thoughts. I'm with you on this one.

Re: Was Princess Diana Murdered?
 

As you aren't putting down your thoughts, you might just as well listen to a little John Fogerty;)

I wonder if Jaysay will get on my case about the "typo" ... I had to think about it ... to him it would come naturally ... a true creative genius that lad;):D

Re: Was Princess Diana Murdered?
 

I'm not believing "a movie" I am acknowledging that it was based on some facts. Society in the 60's and 70's was riddled with Police corruption and sexual impropriety and there are many coverups of such activites.

The issue is that any events are always seen differently by the people who see an event and this is well accepted already which is why we have Lawyers - however the way the system works some Lawyers can get people off, even though they were guilty.

What I'm saying is peoples version of events is usually in conflict.

Jill Dando is another case, an incident occuring in broad daylight in a nice urban street and still no one has been prosecuted for it. :cool: No one knows who dunit!?

Re: Was Princess Diana Murdered?
 

The one thing i find odd wi "Dianes" end, Is the fact the majority i have spoke too oer the years seem to think she was topped. In other cases it seems a Minority view?:confused:

Re: Was Princess Diana Murdered?
 

Cashy, she was perceived as a bit of a 'loose cannon' by those in the higher echelons.....so if in the dim and distant future, evidence does come out that she was 'terminated' then, from wherever I am deposited in the after life.....I won't be surprised.

Re: Was Princess Diana Murdered?
 

Good point Cashy, I just cannot believe she was murdered, if she had worn her seatbelt, she would have survived.
I have just read that no one in the car were wearing seatbelts, the bodyguard survived due to the airbags. The impact speed is estimated at 65 mph, survivable in a S Class.

I would have tampered with the private jet they used to fly up to Paris, it's cleaner and more importantly there is little left afterwards.

Re: Was Princess Diana Murdered?
 

Oh i don't disagree, Maybe Dodi was the real target? It would be pretty well known i would think,that he was averse to wearing a seat belt?
