Maybe Clinton put a hit out on her.
My guess is--on the presumption that the U.K. has domestic spying restrictions--that we were spying on her so that we could pass off the info to the Brits without them having to go through any internal judicial hurdles.
You are ssuming that it was BILL who ordered it.
Think of another Clinton...
MI Ping
This is truely a mountain out of a molehill.
Which one of the Co-Presidents do you refer?
....for several reasons.
I recall reports of Di sleeping over at the White House once when Hillary was out of town. I seem to recall Hillary being upset at the time.
We all recall the private detectives, and the 300 (?) or so FBI files on political opponents immediately after Bill took office.
We all suspected a continuing investigation of everybody the Clintons thought they could intimidate with information on their background.
Don't rule out his checking on Di to help him get laid.
I sincerely doubt this based off the fact that Clinton's tastes seem to be considerably less than Princess Di. If he had actually had an affair with Princess Di, I think we'd have a different opinion of Clinton. For one, we might not ever know about it, because Princess Di probably would have done her laundry. And also, dating Di would make Clinton more suave - like JFK was suave for dating Marilyn Monroe.
But let's face it - Monica Lewinsky - she's pretty trashy. Like Brittney Spears-reality TV trashy.
Actually, IIRC, somewhere Di admitted to Bubba hitting on her, declaring that she was "very naughty" with the sitting Prez.
It may be that someone felt all Bubba's gals had to be watched for security reasons at one point or another. If Di was taking up with Dodi and so on, maybe someone was wondering what pillow talk / flirt blather was going from Bubba to a gal to her next BF.
Remember Bubba on the phone with a congresscritter about the Kosovo war all the while Monica was doing her thing?
This speculation made possible by Bubba's icky pattern of conduct.
Clinton didnt want to "date" her per say he prolly just wanted to spank his monkey a few times, like he always does.
With Princess Di, he was probably looking to find out who she was doing, for gossip's sake, and perhaps for future reference in case he ever wanted to dump the witch and start an Anglo-US leftist alliance.
American intelligence agencies were bugging Princess Diana's telephone over her relationship with a US billionaire, the Evening Standard has learned.
She was even forced to abandon a planned holiday with her sons in the US with tycoon Teddy (Theodore) Forstmann on advice from secret services, who passed on their concerns to their British counterparts.
Both US and British intelligence then forced Diana to change her plans to stay with Mr Forstmann in the summer of 1997, saying it was too "dangerous" to take her sons there.
Instead the princess took the fateful decision to take a summer break with Harrods owner Mohamed Fayed. This ultimately led to her going to Paris with his son Dodi, where they died in a car crash.
The revelation from independent inquiries by the Evening Standard comes as it emerged that Princess Diana's phone was bugged by US intelligence agencies on the night she died without the permission of the British secret intelligence services.
Authoritative leaks say the extraordinary revelations will be published this week by Lord Stevens and is bound to raise fresh questions about conspiracy theories.
The US secret service was monitoring Diana's friendship with the controversial financier Mr Forstmann for some weeks.
Mohamed Fayed has always insisted the princess and Dodi Fayed were murdered in a plot involving MI6 agents and US intelligence.
The Standard has learned that Diana had agreed to a week's holiday with princes William and Harry in the US.
She had accepted an invitation from her one-time American boyfriend Mr. Forstmann to stay with him at his house in the Hamptons.
But as she was travelling with the princes, she needed the trip to be cleared by the British security services. They surprisingly vetoed Diana's plans because of concerns about the security surrounding the billionaire's homes or perhaps a possible threat from elsewhere.
The decision by the security services ultimately led to Diana striking up her friendship with Dodi and returning to the south of France to holiday with him.
This led to her being in Paris on 31 August, the day of the crash.
The Evening Standard also understands that US secret services have a number of secret files on Diana and her closest associates that are held by the national security agency.
The files, which include reports from foreign intelligence - thought to include MI5 and MI6 - come under both top secret and secret categories.The reports cannot be released because of "exceptionally grave damage to the national security".
The documents on the princess seem to have arisen because of the company she kept rather than through any attempt to target her.
Diana enjoyed an intimate friendship with Mr Forstmann after her relationship with Prince Charles had broken down.

Interesting theory. Kind of a Kennedy/Marilyn Monroe relationship about to be started?
'Di Spy' Could Warrant Clinton Probe
Maybe she was being spied on by MI5 and the CIA/NSA/DIA/CID/OSI
were just keeping track of what MI5 might be finding out.
That whirring, clanking sound you hear is the Great Clinton Lying Machine starting up. It has many useful attachments, such as the Carville attachment, the Blumenthal attachment, and the Begala attachment. And for those really big jobs, there's the Bill and the Hillary attachments.
Doubt Dianna was the target- but her boyfriend might well have been.
