"I almost wonder if she was shot to keep secret the full list of French officers she had slept with.

More likely to keep secret how many French officers she had seen sleeping with each other.

How do you post that kind of graphic?

Several movies have been made about Mata Hari. I heard a few years ago that a new one was to be made starring Dita Von Teese, the burlesque artist. I don't think it was ever made.

Dita is hot, but she is well endowed, which Mata Hari was not. In fact, even though she obviously had no problem with nudity, she was very self conscious about the small size of her bust.

Good question. Don’t know if you can tell by the picture. Makes for a good story though. Amazing how long lasting the whole thing is. Something about it I guess.

She learned Pole dancing in Krakow.

I read she got the data that aletered the Germans to the sailing dates for Lord Kichener—they torpedoed the cruiser and he went down with the ship—puting British war goals back for weeks.

Kitchener was killed in 1916 when the warship taking him to negotiations in Russia was sunk by a German mine, not by a sub.
