Speculations that Princess Diana's death may be more than an accident have gained further momentum, after recent discoveries revealed that her chauffeur reportedly received mystery payments amounting to 142,000 dollars, just weeks before she died in the car he was driving. Chauffeur Henri Paul died along with Diana and her lover Dodi Al Fayed when the Mercedes he was driving crashed in an underpass in Paris, France in August 1997. British detectives investigating the tragedy have fuelled speculation that Paul was being paid by British secret service agents, by revealing the staggering sums he received from British banks just before...

Every time Diana, Princess of Wales's ghost returns for another haunting, as it did last week on American television and thence into the British media, our perceptions of her the only thing that stays the same is the revolving cast of clapped-out courtiers, posh lowlifes and fleabag turncoats who continue to cash in on her memory. -snip- What's fascinating about the Settelen seance is the new insight it gives us into the Diana myth. We suddenly glimpse why the Royal Family was so afraid of her witchy power. Coquetting with the camera, she comes off as a performing charmer, a...

First, I’d like to congratulate Australia’s Prime Minister John Howard for winning an unprecedented fourth term; even though John Kerry’s sister Diana (at her brother’s direction) worked diligently against him. Well done, Mr. Howard! Despite the Kerry family’s obsessive attempt to unseat the Australian prime minister and overthrow his government (due to PM Howard’s unflinching support of President Bush’s and the US coalition of nations’ Iraq policies) PM Howard has won. The Kerry family has an unswerving history of working with both the enemies of the US and the far-left of other countries. This history began with John Kerry’s clandestine...

Two of the judges on the committee for the Diana memorial have broken rank to say that they should never have picked Kathryn Gustafson's ring-shaped waterway. Architect Edward Jones and art critic Richard Cork have argued that the submission by Anish Kapoor was much better, and would have been an "extraordinary, world-class memorial" rather than just "splashing around in water." This is the latest in a litany of problems faced by the memorial (nicknamed "the puddle"), which currently lies closed and empty in London's Hyde Park only three weeks after its opening. The rock was tricky to cut, the pumps...

June 28th, 2004, Cute and cuddly Katie Couric and her pet sidekick, a fellow who looks like Andre Agassi and acts like Lassie, proved a point this morning. They announced the pending release of "new information" about Princess Diana. Six days of Ronald Reagan, who just weeks ago left us, was excessive to American liberal journalists. Princess Diana passed to her reward long ago and far away, and we do not yet have our fill of her? If one wishes to compare deaths, Reagan got a disease and dealt with it bravely, while Princess Diana was in a limo full...

A British coroner asks police to investigate the death of the Princess of Wales, reviving all those wild conspiracy theories. Will they ever let her rest in peace?

The only eyewitness to Princess Diana's death insists no other person or vehicle was involved in the crash. Mohamed Medjahdi, speaking publicly for the first time, believes any conspiracy to kill her must have been carried out by "invisible men".
