IGNORING THE ADVICE OF THE BRITISH FOREIGN OFFICE,.... SOME SNIPPETS OF INFORMATION FOR THE CROW FAMILY.

13.03.08, 12:19am

Ignoring the advice of the British Foreign Office, Charles was accompanied by Camilla at the Zimbabwe independence celebration, thereby providing fodder for the press. Still obligated to marry and produce an heir to the throne, a chance encounter brought Lady Diana Spencer to the attention of Charles at a weekend house party. This was like manna from heaven for the Windsors, for Diana was a blue eyed blond teen aged virgin who hailed from an eminently acceptable blue blooded family. A marriage to Diana also was acceptable to the prince, presumably because he assumed that this shy and naïve teenager was too timid to challenge his adulterous relationship with Camilla Parker Bowles. How wrong he was!

AS FAR AS THE SENIOR WINDSORS WERE..........

13.03.08, 12:14am

As far as the senior Windsors were concerned, it was mandatory that male heirs to the throne marry non catholic blue blooded virgins. This eliminated Camilla from contention since she was considered used goods. She subsequently married Andrew Parker Bowles, who reluctantly had terminated a tempestuous affair with Princess Anne in 1972 because he was a Catholic. Charles dutifully offered his hand in marriage to the twenty five year old Anna Wallace in 1977. Anna angrily severed the relationship after being publicly humiliated by Charles, who repeatedly danced with Camilla Parker Bowles - now the mother of a young son, at a ball given by Lord Vesey.

A CONVENIENT SCAPEGOAT......................

13.03.08, 12:09am

A Convenient Scapegoat

The numerous anomalies surrounding the crash and the eagerness by both the investigative authorities and the news media to solely blame the hapless Henri Paul for the incident strongly suggest the occurrence of a massive cover-up. The news media claimed that Paul had been battling alcoholism for at least a year, yet his autopsy revealed that his liver was normal for a person of his age. According to Henri Paul's friends, he wasn't a heavy drinker and led a quiet life. Moreover, he had successfully passed a medical exam necessary for renewal of his pilot's license only a few days prior to his death. An accomplished musician and lover of classical music, he had a passion for flying light aircraft.

A possible explanation for the high alcohol content is that his blood sample may not have been refrigerated in a timely manner, thus allowing decomposition of the blood (there is no published record of the time or temperature of the body at the time of storage). It was claimed that the blood sample also contained a carbon monoxide level of 20.7%, which would have been even higher prior to death. Such an abnormally high and near lethal percentage would have resulted in nausea, confusion, a violent headache and difficulty in walking, yet the Ritz security cameras showed Paul with none of these symptoms while still at the hotel.

According to Commander Mules, the head of the Paris Criminal Brigade which had responsibility for investigating the crash, carbon monoxide was inhaled when the driver's airbag inflated upon impact. This was impossible since the Mercedes Benz Company has publicly asserted that their airbags do not contain carbon monoxide releasing chemicals. In addition, it is customary for French firefighters to wear carbon monoxide detectors, yet none of the firefighters at the crash scene reported detection of the deadly gas. Henri Paul's death was virtually instantaneous upon impact, primarily caused, according to the French autopsy report, by a ruptured aorta. This injury would have prevented carbon monoxide from being circulated throughout the body. Very significantly, Dodi's father was refused permission by French authorities to have an independent blood and DNA analysis conducted. In all probability, what really happened is that the blood sample had been taken from a person who had consumed a large quantity of alcohol prior to committing suicide by attaching a hose to the exhaust pipe of a vehicle.


Eyewitness Accounts Ignored

The flagrant manner in which the French authorities have elected to ignore statements made by various French, British and Americans who were eyewitnesses to the circumstances surrounding the fatal crash in the Alma tunnel, also their refusal to release samples of Henri Paul's blood for analysis by independent pathologists, strongly suggests that the tragic death of Princess Diana was premeditated murder. Even Diana herself feared that she would be the target of an assassination orchestrated by security forces on behalf of the Windsors. A year prior to her death, Diana wrote: "This particular phase of my life is the most dangerous. My husband is planning 'an accident' in my car ... in order to make the path clear for him to marry."

Diana's fear of assassination becomes plausible if we consider a brief overview of her childhood and her tumultuous relationship with the Windsors. One can imagine the trauma and sense of insecurity engendered in ten year old Diana as she watched her mother storm out of the house (and out of a loveless marriage to Earl Spencer) without bothering to say goodbye to her children.

JESSICA 'SORRY MISS!!!!!'

12.03.08, 7:44pm




To make amends to you - try googling French Healthcare System - I've been looking at it this morning - it is structured differently to NHS - so think there is more choice - so that may be why we've little success with HP's GP - I'd forgotten that although it has had changes in recent few years - at the time of the car crash it was considered to be one of the best.

Am I off the hook?

I have ben mistaken for many things in my life from airline steward to Marks & Spencer's sales assistant - even had a barman in Spain sidle up to me and ask if I was Benny Hill, but this is the first time I have been mistaken for a woman even if you are Scottish.

BARRY MANNAKEE...

12.03.08, 1:00pm


Penny, Barry Mannakee was killed when a 17 year old girl pulled out in front of the motorbike on which he was a passenger. She had passed her test 6 weeks before the accident.

Diana stated that she thought he was bumped off. However, according to Hasnat Khan she told him the motorbike was involved in a head on collission with a truck. This leads me to one of two conclusions:

1) Her belief that he was bumped off was based on an incorrect understanding of the circumstances.

2) She totally understood the circumstances but wasn't beyond a bit of embellishment to spice things up a bit.

My girlfriend passed her test 3 months ago. Last week she turned into a Renault scenic when attempting to turn right. Thankfully, no one was hurt but if the passenger in the other car had been, would you have said "People don't just turn in to other cars".

Sadly, they do and the explanation is very mundane, lack of experience.

Seems some folk can't tell us apart - wonder if it's because we're both Scots.
Penny - I think you need to get a grip - you are seeing conspiracys where there are none. I agree with Mrs A - why do you bring up every current item in the news on this forum.

AND THE CHURCH...

12.03.08, 11:47am


"We need to back GOOD not evil and we should only swear allegiance to those whom we respect and know are serving God and Good and not power , greed and corruption".

They are masters of corruption and hiding embarrassing activities.

The thing is, corruption and scant disregard for the rights of others is nothing new. How do you think we built an empire?
