Sorry to interrupt the repartee over ZM tabula rasa and Nanos's solar powered cars with an actual substantive discussion on conspiracy theories.

Has anyone had to debunk Diana conspiracies? If so, what is the best tool to use to do so? The Operation Paget inquiry which found no conspiracy? Is there another non-UK government investigation that has a public record and an express conclusion of no conspiracy?

Granted, this isn't the sexiest CT out there, and obviously it attracts little interest from white American males age 18-30 most of whom have no clue who Princess Diana even was. But, CTs on this topic persist. I'm curious if some of our UK-based regulars often hear Diana CTs and whether it's the standard "the Queen bumped her off" or some other permutation.

Also, in reading about the case, I'm intrigued by the white Fiat Uno that is believed to have been involved in the crash. Official records maintain that the driver of this car was never found, however there seems to be credible evidence that in fact he was identified:

Has anyone looked into this?

Here's an interesting question: do believers in Diana CTs tend to not believe in the standard panoply (9/11, NWO, JFK, etc.)? Do we finally have a case of CTs that, instead of having substantially overlapping believers, appeal instead to distinct demographics? From my view, it seems most people who aren't interested in royalty, celebrity gossip, paparazzi stuff etc. don't give a hoot about Princess Diana.

The Brits are tired of paying for the Royals, especially with the austerity talk. That might be why there's little interest anymore.

Are the Royals relevant to UK politics at any level besides being celebrities? I wasn't under the impression that they were. That might be why it seems that only people who follow celebrities care about them and Diana.

I dont know much except the Daily Mail is like Fox News ;)

Honestly I lived in Britain for a few months, and my personal belief is the royals exist for tourism. I believe if Britain did away with them then they believe people wouldn't find touring the country all that interesting.

Btw, the Daily Mail, like most of the British press is utter garbage.

Icke claims that Diana had once said to someone she was close to that "they are all reptilians", or something like that. I remember watching one of his docs (where he discussed the Diana conspiracy) and boy oh boy, he had it all figured out like no one else! I wish he used his creativity and schizophrenia in other ways.

She was messing around with that fella, Dodi Fayad who was apparently a father(or going to be) to her upcoming child. Also Charles was messing around with Parker Bowles or whatever the old bint is called and I think they were both going their own ways.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dodi_Fayed<br /> Dodi Fayed (15 April 1955 - 31 August 1997), was an Egyptian multi-millionaire and film producer. He is best known internationally as the romantic partner of Diana, Princess of Wales, both of whom died in a car crash in the Pont de l'Alma tunnel in Paris along with driver Henri Paul on 31 August 1997.

She was convinced she was going to be killed,” says Diana’s old friend, Argentinean businessman Roberto Deverik, who recalls Diana often speaking of murderous plots against her.

“She said, ‘When it's not convenient anymore, I will-- they will blow me in a car or in a helicopter.’"

Al Fayed, who has refused numerous requests to talk to 48 Hours, believes that his son and Diana were killed in order to prevent the princess from marrying his son, a Muslim, and having his child.

One of the CT's is about not having a link/bloodline to muslims which would be likely if our monarchy are really that old fashioned and worried about blood and stuff after all this time.

I heard about that too, I know many quotes of her diary pages were in the newspapers for a while. There were a lot of conflicting stories in any case, some saying she was becoming too much of a loose cannon and you never know she might have been paranoid or on drugs.
