Mata Hari was the stage name of the Dutch dancer Margaretha Geertruida Zelle (born 7 August 1876 in Leeuwarden, † 15 October 1917 in Vincennes). During her marriage, she used the name Marguerite Campbell and Lady Gretha MacLeod. As a spy for the German secret she bore the code name H 21
Mata Hari was in the period before and during the famous First World War as an exotic dancer and nude eccentric artist. In addition, she is now considered most famous spy of all time. She was born on 25 July 1917 because of double espionage and treason by the judges of a French military court and sentenced to death on 15 October 1917 executed.
It is unclear to this day whether it was actually the clever double agent, as shown in the judgment - or a welcome scapegoat the French military court since the war enthusiasm fell markedly and a scapegoat for the defeats and losses seemed helpful. This will, if at all, until 2017 - clarify once and if the French court files are open - one hundred years after her death. Mata Hari, probably in the late autumn of 1915, entered the service of the German Secret Service, is now indisputable. From contemporary records of British intelligence MI5, on the 21st January 1999 have been released and are now publicly available in the British National Archives is evident, however, that she has apparently revealed no major secrets to the Germans. Currently, it seems that Mata Hari tries at the end of her dancing career with a pathetically naive, meaningless information activities avert their impending fate of being drawn as an artist into oblivion and suffering from acute shortage of money, and not the dangerousness of their actions recognized.
The German war propaganda ausschlachtete the event, described it as a "victim of the French war mania" and rang the political finale of Idol's dramatic one-romantic transfiguration. Mata Hari's adventurous life and tragic end are still the subject of numerous novels, plays and films. Her life story was far substance for more than 250 books and a dozen films. The source material is, however, still thin, but based only a fraction of these books and movies on reliable sources. (Source: Wikipedia)
