Prince Harry deserves at least a little credit for being a child of privilege who apparently volunteered to serve overseas in his country’s war.  Granted, it seems very unlikely that he’s being subjected to exactly the same conditions (and risks) as his fellow comrades-in-arms—the report is that he’s already being shipped back to England as a result of a leak in the press—but at least he made the gesture, and by choice.  How many children of privilege here in the US can say the same—especially the children of the chickenhawks who supported the war?  As an example, when are the Bush twins going to be deployed to Iraq or Afghanistan?  Yeah, right—never, that’s when.

The British royalty has information from a reliable world power ally source that all Taliban operatives are targeting Harry and suspending all insurgency operations. IMO, Harry should have trained to be a pilot like his dad, fly a sortie, drop a few cluster bombs and return to base. Not much exposure up in the air. I wonder if GI Joe’s Mom could get her son/daughter out of the combat zone by getting GW to intercede. Probably not, since GI Joe’s Mom has no lineage for such consideration. Her potential sacrifice is deemed more worthy.

These images are so different from the sensitive youngster who came to look at those flowers left by people at the gates of KP as a testimonial to the high esteem and love his mother was held in by “the people”...his mother, “the people’s princess”; later he broke down and cried when Elton started his beautiful, haunting rendition of “candle in the wind”; these pictures here show a young man, eager to go and kill and as he puts it welcomes this chance at killing “to have a chance to feel real...like a normal man”. Really? I believe he like all his family, the royals, loves blood sports, period. He, like all of them lusts for a chance to kill. And, like all of them he is ignorant, conceited and arrogant to see that the “real” reason his country is fighting there, is to grab the OIL. What a shameful twist this life took...what a pity for so much potential TO DO GOOD going down the t***et or should I say l*o?

Why the big media flap, and why now do they have to rush Harry back to the safety of his castle? I’m not from a monarchical country (not yet, anyway), but it was my impression from a reading of history that monarchs and princes earned their right to rule by rushing out to the vanguard of battle in FRONT of all their troops. Exposure to danger is what these aristocrats are SUPPOSED to be doing, isn’t it?

Harry ??????? you beleive he is on the front line ???
what was he shooting at ?????? who is gonna say a bad word from his command ????? and she is gonna let her grand child get killed ????? foot patroles aye to the pub !!!!!!!! hasen`t showered for 4 days washed clothes for a week my heart bleeds try africa they are doin a lot better.....

Prince Harry should be watching his back more than “THE FRONT” while questions of possible DNA tests are in the wind…

I’m not sure if being a soldier requires being a dimwit.  I don’t think this is a general shortcoming because I’ve read some very erudite stuff on the web emanating from military personal.  But, how do you sum up the purpose for our presence there?  If a Martian spaceship could pick up all the chatter on earth and use advanced programs (perhaps human brain-reading programs and such) to sort out what the REAL (and actual) purpose is, I think they would come to one conclusion.  Oil.  So, to Prince Harry, all I can say is:  Why are you there?

If it is to improve the lives of the Afghani people in face of the horrible, nasty Taliban why is it that “coaltion” forces have killed more civilians in Afhg. than the Taliban have?

Perhaps death is an improvement under any system.  Well, Good Luck Prince Harry, and hope you have a jolly time of it all.  Perhaps we could meet in the pub afterwards?  I view it mostly as a sort of military practise session, or exercise if you will, having no real objective as such, but with lots of dead bodies in its wake.
