Diana Princess of Wales

Princess Diana of England or Queen Rania of Jordan...which do you admire more for their charity work?

Princess Diana and Queen Rania have in common being of royalty and wealth...and both have reached out to every-day people. They also have in common an August 31th date. Princess Diana tragically died on August 31, 1997, and for Queen Rania, August 31, 1970 is her birthdate. Have either of them made a difference in the world? Is the world a better, safer place to be because of their charity work?

1. Despite prevailing opinions of her personal life.....one has to give it to Diana....she did a bang-up, splendid job of her work with charities. I think she is the winner in almost any contest concerning this...
2. Neither. Diana had the looks, the followers, the position and opportunities. It was easy for her to be the figurehead or patron for all her charities. There was no effort involved, surely? All the work would have been done by her staff. That's what they do. Are people that naive? Has the world become a safer place in the last 10 years? I don't think so.
3. Princess Diana did a lot of good things, such as raise awareness about AIDS when it was still kind of a taboo subject, and many other things as well which are noble. Queen Rania is trying to improve the lives of people in her country, especially women and children, she is fighting against stereotypes about Arabs/Muslims, and she is trying to help solve differences between the West and East. I'm proud of Queen Rania because she is originally Palestinian, and she is a wonderful person to represent Palestinians, Jordanians, and all Arabs and Muslims. But I don't think you can compare them. They are both special in what they work/worked for.
4. I believe both Princess Diana and Queen Rania should be admired for their charity work. I do not believe it should be measured, compared. Both the Princess and the Queen have put forth much time and effort into their charity work, which should be commended not compared.
5. She was NEVER Princess Diana of England! She would have had to be born 400 years ago to have been of England! She wasn't even "of Wales" or "of the United Kingdom"! She was Diana, Princess of Wales!
6. She was Diana, Princess Of Wales, not England.I think both did a fair amount of good work.
