IAN BURNETT QC: "THE QUESTION ARISES OF HOW, IF YOU ARE RIGHT IN SAYING THE SIS DOES NOT CONTEMPLATE ASSASSINATION ...

24.02.08, 12:43am


... one of its officers could have raised the possibility and committed it to writing"

... GOOD QUESTION!

... Then we can ask about all the insinuations of the inquest being a 'farce' and a 'circus' ...

... On WHICH SIDE is the 'farce' and 'circus'?

... The obvious, EXTREMELY GRAVE IMPLICATIONS indicate that rogue cells within SIS could even CHANGE the course of the history of the British Isles with simply ONE order from a hidden despot or dictator at any time!
- Now we know there is no accountability whatsoever, when that very writing can all be consigned to a shredder!

BURRELL ASKED TO RETURN TO INQUEST

23.02.08, 11:31pm

I too thought that Diana's "rock" had only her best interest at heart. Now I think differently. I do wonder what happened to make him change, or was his intention to make money anyway he could? I hope that in my lifetime the truth comes out as to what really happened. I think that this was not just an accident. I still remember the night it happened. As the news reports came out it started out that the driver was not drunk, then with each report the the amount of alcohol in his system increased until the number was so ridiculous that I knew there were problems with the accounting of the event. I still miss Diana and wonder how different it all would have been had the "accident" not happened.

FOR THE RECORD:

23.02.08, 10:30pm


... Back in 1976, in Bristol, it was my destiny to have to go into a bedroom every morning and wake up 4 little mentally handicapped kids in a dormitory and get them ready for breakfast and school. One hapless little girl of about seven had always been playing with her own faeces and made balls of it; plastering it everywhere and leaving it caked on her own hands.
Being winter when I was there, the stench was overwhelming around the poor kid in the warm dormitory. I would take her to the bathroom and in an enormous Victorian sink wash the whole lot off her.
Very soon I learned the trick to breath only through my mouth to avoid the stench while doing this, contrary to the natural instinct of breathing through the nose.

... Now, looking at these pages, I am also able to control my eyes in exactly the same fashion; against instinct.
I just look at the posters I know to be positive and have something constructive to say; avoiding every syllable that I don't need, nor want to read. IMPOSSIBLE? ... No, not at all! Those months in Bristol with those sweet, poor kids, taught me many beautiful things.
One of them was how to filter out nastiness you did not want when it was right up close!

ADMIRATION FOR MOHAMED AL FAYED

23.02.08, 9:58pm


... Transcribed and respectfully corrected from the excellent posting from "cassidyskye" of Southend-on-Sea. 19.02.08, 2:15 pm

"He has a good point here. I am not one to believe conspiracy theories but I agree with what he said. I have read the transcripts and no doubt a cover-up is going on. It's all true what Mr Al Fayed said . It's taken 10 years, so we can all forget her ... and everyone is saying he is a lunatic; but that's all been slander for those who are involved in the cover-up.- One which is to basically protect the country from the embarrassment of the murder claim.. All Mohamed Al Fayed says adds up, and it's just obvious Diana was a threat that had to be removed ... because they would not want a foreign or Muslim, non-white person related to the Monarchy.
The Princess was playing with fire because she was angry at being used in the first place; to bear babies to a man who didn't know what love meant. When she started to flaunt her new love, the inner Court worried about it and Prince Philip had words with the Big Boys.
We should all acknowledge that the Fiat went missing.
The Mahogany Box was gotten rid of by Diana's own sister.

... And so many other factors which cry out murder!

But Mohamed Al Fayed is right when he says that God is the judge and that none of us should accept murder, no matter who is to blame. I admire this man's courage and share his pain and sorrow. I shall never be railroaded into believing that this was just a mere Road Traffic Accident.
... So we turn a blind eye and accuse a man of being insane who stands up for justice.
... What will we do next? - Go back to throwing Christians to the lions? - Or admit that we too have to face God and hope to have a clear conscience?
We have to look in our hearts and admit Mohamed Al Fayed pays more in tax than this inquest costs. - He should NEVER have had to wait 10 years for this!
- All because the cover-up was orchestrated by the father of a supposed future king.
... None of them should be above the law; no matter who they are.
Justice should hold no favour.

"Why can the Americans insist on the 3 bankers being flown to America to stand trial, yet it is up to Paul Burrell himself whether he returns to explain his 'faux pas' (i.e. being caught saying he had been lying) at Dianas inquest."

For various reasons. Firstly the NatWest 3 were accused of a criminal offense, while Burrell at this stage is being asked to return and clarify his evidence. He's not (yet) been accused of purgery.

Secondly the extradition laws are a bit skewed right now. Extraditing an American criminal (which again Burrell is neither) is rather difficult, which extraditing a Brit to the states requires much less evidence.

PAUL BURREL NEEDS A DRUG TEST

23.02.08, 12:13am

If it's not drugs, maybe he has lost his mind. Or maybe he wants to come back?

ON THE LATE NEWS

23.02.08, 12:12am

it was said that Burrell did not *have* to come back if he didn't want to.

How can that be??

Why can the Americans insist on the 3 bankers being flown to America to stand trial, yet it is up to Paul Burrell himself whether he returns to explain his 'faux pas' (i.e. being caught saying he had been lying) at Dianas inquest.

I always thought he was trying to do his best re Princess Diana, but after hearing what he said about not telling the truth and perjuring himself, he should be brought back, whether he wants to or not.

LESSON

22.02.08, 8:02pm

It would be an even bigger lesson if he didn't get back into the USA. He'd find his money making schemes on the back of his dead employer would dry up. The man is a slimy piece of dirt.

NOW HE IS CLAIMING...

22.02.08, 7:47pm

it was the champagne went to his head, and he was exaggerating.

just been on early evening news.

i think he is all mouth and no trousers,

but even so it would teach him a lesson if he was made to come back ..

WILL HE COME BACK

22.02.08, 6:58pm

I doubt it. I doubt he has any real secrets either, a few salacious tales he held back for his next book maybe but nothing of any real relevance to the inquest.
