Diana Doddi Inquest

Poor ionns. Can you not just do a jigsaw or something

[Bobbie En Tejas]

Ionns, I'm not sure if it is justice you want so much as revenge against the wealthy. Remembering past threads, if a person was suspected of killing her who didn't have much money, you would be defending them as victims.

I remember exactly where I was when I first heard the news, before they actually announced that she died, and I remember thinking that she had been done in. Not sure we'll ever know.

Bobbie,
If Diana was assassinated - then the chances were extremely high- that it was Her Majesties Secret Service.
Acting under orders from above. Morally speaking - Diana Princess Wales was a whore - then again His Royal Highness The Prince Wales - fared no better in the morality stakes. Both were adulterers - both lied and cheated to their partners - He the head of the Church Of England - A bi-sexual predator to boot. She the media made English Rose - A martyred saint - all remarkably good fodder - actively devoured by the mediocre mob - who unquestionable accept the truth - according to the particular red top they happen to eat.

Terms of justice and revenge can easily be mistaken - as both have at their core - a drive for some form of retribution. However justice strives to right a wrong - within the concept of society. revenge has no such considerations - insidious self destructive- without due diligence - in it's - blanket discrimination - Guilty or Innocent - it makes little difference - concepts of justice do nothing to quench the thirst for revenge - of the revengeful.
I firmly believe that the concept of justice - lies at the heart of any civilised society - and as such all citizens should share in equal measure - responsibility and protection that justice provides. No one should be excluded - either on the grounds of their own responsibility - or state of security - and well-being - that justice brings.
As far as I am concerned - my integrity remains intact - at least in matters of economic justice for the poor.

No jigsaw yet?
I dont think anyone of us can make moral judgements about anyone elses life, unless of course our own is flawless. Diana was an inspiration to a generation of people. Her work in bringing forward the image of AID's was second to none. Her campaigning against landmines has saved thousands of lives. Yes, she used the media but so much of it was for a positive result. It is only since her death that it has been exposed that a lot of her humanitarian work was done in a clandestine way, without any journalists or cameras present. I for one am proud to say I admired her. If she and Dodi were assasinated then I hope the truth comes out. Whatever the outcome, no one can take away what I felt for this amazing woman.
Please remember when you talk about injustices in our social system, that there are elderly people in Campbeltown paying YOUR share of the Council Tax due to the huge defecit we inherited when we left Strathclyde Regional Council.
How's that for immoral

[ionnsaigh]

Absolutely agree about the Council Tax - how unfair can it get.

[Friend of Dorothy]

Once again, you have conveniently missed the point. Your non-payment of said tax causes greater penalties for those who do pay.
Please try to keep up with the thread!

[ionnsaigh]

Absolutely agree, about the Council Tax - how unfair can it get.

[Friend of Dorothy]

Well, since this thread has been totally lost, once again, in the rantings of a self centered, socially immoral, pseudo communist with a huge chip on his shoulder, I shall now bow out.
Good luck to the rest of you.

You don't think that we should make moral judgements about anyone else's life. Then you blatantly proceed to cast judgement on Diana . Her work bringing forward the image of aids - was a public exercise - as was her work with landmine - set up and staged managed - she sure looked good in the visor hat - do you really think that she was anywhere near an unexploded land mine?. Diana was a cool calculated individual - who knew how to manipulate the press and public. Can you give an example of her clandestine work that we - joe public were unaware?. Sorry I fail to see what was amazing in her - if I wish to look for inspiration - I only have to look no further than Fiona- not some cheap tart - princess or not.

To the scaffold with him.

To the scaffold with him.

Must be the second time we have agreed on something

[Beachcomber]

With the greatest of respect, you called the woman a 'whore', basing your opinion on nothing more than tabloid tittle-tattle, a remark clearly intended to offend rather than to convey any meaningful information.

Ah, relief!

Nice to hear from you beachcomber, but I fear there is no point in giving too much fodder to this one.
