Maybe,
as driver Henri Paul's lawyers claim, the car was not going that fast. Maybe
the crash was faked by the army-trained Rees-Jones who had previously
deposited Di and Dodi elsewhere.
b. Dodi's usual driver was not used. Mystery still surrounds Henri Paul, the
security officer who stepped in at the last minute to drive the Mercedes
S-280. It took a full two days for his name to be revealed, for instance.
Co-workers at the Ritz Hotel say he kept himself to himself and never
socialised with them. One version of this conspiracy has it that Paul simply
did not exist, another that he was quickly whisked away from the hospital
after being declared dead by doctors in cahoots with the Al Fayed family.
c. Just six hours before she died Di let slip to Daily Mail reporter Richard
Kray that she was about to withdraw completely from public life.
Likelihood: 2/10.
Parts
of it sound feasible but what about Di's two children? It is almost
inconceivable that she would want to miss out on the rest of their lives.
The chances of her coming back to see them without being noticed are surely
slim, though plastic
surgery permitting it might be prudent to look out for a similarly built
'nanny' appearing on the scene in the future.
2. THEORY
TWO: MI6 Killed DI.
Plot
:Rogue
elements in the British secret service decide that Di is a threat to the
throne, and therefore the stability of the state. They take her out.
Evidence:
a. Recent revelations have shown that there are rogue elements in the
secret service who act as more or less autonomous cells. Some of these have
been revealed to have a pretty strange view of what constitutes a threat to
the state. For instance, they have files on John Lennon, current British
Home Secretary (Interior Minister) Jack Straw and they once tried to
destabilise the 1970s Labour government. It is not inconceivable that the
same agents who believed Lennon was capable of leading revolution also
believed Diana was capable of fomenting popular unrest.
b. MI6 is suspected of bugging Diana throughout her years in the Royal
limelight, and many believe they were behind the leaking of the 'Squidgygate'
phone tapping tapes which damaged her image during the break up with
Charles.
c. Bodyguard Trevor Rees-Jones was a former member of the crack Parachute
Regiment, one of the most toughest in the British army.
|

He also
completed two stints in Northern Ireland and served in the Royal Military
Police, just the kind of background that would have seen him come into
contact with members of the secret service. Theorists cite the fact
Rees-Jones survived the crash as evidence that he was in on the plot to
snuff out the Diana threat.
Likelihood: 3/10:
Few doubt that the nutters at MI6 are capable of anything but surely even
they would have had qualms about bumping off Diana, if only for the reason
that her death might bring on the very things they most fear, the drift
toward a republican state in the UK, as Charles loses still more popularity.
3.
THEORY THREE: Target Dodi:
Plot
:
Business enemies of
Dodi and his father Mohammed Al Fayed assassinate Dodi, with the death of Di
a magnificent cover for their operation.
Evidence:
Al Fayed has not got to the top without making some serious enemies
along the way. The owner of Harrods fought a bitter battle for the top
London store some years ago and has also been denied British nationality
after question marks were raised about his business practise. His activities
have included under the counter payments to Conservative MPs. as his oldest
son and heir, Dodi would be an obvious target for anyone wanting to settle a
score with Al Fayed.
Likelihood:
1/10.
With Di involved, the police operation is likely to be one of the biggest in
Paris history so any assassin would be taking one hell of a risk by cutting
the break cable, say, of Dodi's car. Then again, the day of the Jackal is a
Paris story.

Dear Erica: One of the most appealing aspects of World Art Celebrities
Journal is the
freedom you give your
readers to freely express their opinion; a noble commodity and opportunity
rarely given to readers. I am very fond of cabaret music. My taste is
eclectic and demanding, meaning the personality of performers should be at
the level of their performance. Great singers are usually great from within.

Their character and
personality add to the quality of their performance. We like artists who are
down to earth and humble. I read your magazine with joy and excitement
because it is unbiased and comprehensive in all its news coverage and
feature articles. Having said this, I would like to go one step further if I
may and ask you to grant me the opportunity to express my opinion about a
first class singers who are the personification of excellence in cabaret
music. Some of them are not as famous as Bette Middler and Liza Minelli,
however, their artistic quality and musical resonance match those of the
best in the business. Among those quite and superior divas who are of a
first class quality are:
