mohamed al fayed is bonkers is he not

[CremolaFirCone]

I really don't wish to know if Diana was taking the pill or not.

yes, tmi - why is this in the public interest?

he lives near me

i reckon he is driven by grief.He just will not let it go.

He wont be happy until he gets the answer he wants to hear - and he's not gonna get the answer he wants to hear because it was an accidental car crash.

Has no-one ever told Al Fayed that if you wish to kill someone a car crash is not a very reliable method to use. thousands of people survive car crashes.

Yes he is bonkers.

Dread to think why the British Government won't give him a british passport.

agree name taken.
such a huge waste of money spent on all these enquiries too.
but he's never going to get over it.

indeed cod

I feel so sorry for her sons - to see their mother's life picked apart minutely for the whole world to see. Whether she was taking the pill or not has absolutely nothing to do with how she died.

agree needs bereavment councelling not another blimmin enquiry

If he does n't get his answer he'll keep going though never let it drop, it his raison d'etre now. The man's arrogance knew no bounds before the incident let alone since.

Have you only just noticed?
I was teaching foreign students when Diana died, and they were agog. One of them wanted me to transcribe an interview with Fayed: very sobering. I had missed a lot of his quite blatant nuttery the first time I listened to it. He is/was really delusional, clearly, and I was amazed that people weren't picking out specifics and saying "Look, the police do not have laser guns, Mr Fayed, and they were not shooting at the car..."

he is bonkers.

But was perhaps driven a bit more bonkers by what happened.

why on earth is money being spent on this? And why is it all being reported - even if she had been pregnant, does anyone really care?

He lives near my childhood home shrinkingviolet, you and my parents must be neighbours.
Mahoosive house with helicopters and big fences.
Camilla , party-itgirl went to my old school and she had a bodyguard parked outside in a car all day.(a few years after me i hasten to add)
And yes he is crazy, but probably just angry that his son has died , so what does he do, accuse the British government of doing it.
Well, you never know....

He was quite clearly delusional before they died, I remember seeing a tv prog about his past and his name.
Didn't he think Prince Philip had stepped in to deny him a British passport?

I also feel sorry for him. Grief does strange things to people.

yeah I feel sorry for him too- why can't all these media types realise that they're basically assisting the delusions of a man suffering mental health issues as a result of the very valid trauma he suffered at the loss of his son?

It's cruel imo. Nobody wins here- not him, the boys, nobody.

I don't think he is 'bonkers' at all - just a bit florrid, a touch delusional, and sucumbed totally to grief.

Nice thread.

and anyone who gives the British establishment a bit of grief isn't three bad.

Actually Pan if you read it there is quite a lot of sympathy on here for him, in the various posts

We bumped into him recently in Harrods of all places, he looks soo frail and old, unlike the man of years ago we saw on the TV

I know Peachy...I was joining them. By 'nice thread' I meant 'why start the thread in the first place?'. Sorry if this wasn't clear. Sceptical for posters taking pleasure in other's sorrow etc.

Ah I see

He's causing plenty of sorrow with all this. Accusing people of murder, forcing people who lost their mother young to hear all these horribly intimate details. Telling lies all day long. I think he's horrible. I'm sorry he lost his son, but he was a horrible man before Dodi died too.
