Media leaks presence of Prince Harry in Afghanistan

Now that he's been exposed, he'll no doubt be called back. Good thing our leaders like the Bush's, Clinton's, Cheneys, Rumsfelds, Rice's etc. have to worry about such dangerous situations...

I mean DON'T have to...

You called it ..

So it's legal to rat out famous/royal people over in Iraq, but it's not illegal for our governments to continue to lie about why we are there to begin with?

Our government's won't tell us anything, but there is no rule about endangering the soldiers welfare.

This is like Plame v2.0beta

Harry is a dead-ringer for his dad. And he looks nothing like Charles.

But that aside, it was nice to see a royal on the front-lines. He seems like an alright young man. It's not his fault he was born into privilege.

I'd like to see Blair or Bush or Cheney's kids out there. Harry's got more balls than the lot of them put together. And I'm no monarchist.

It seems he was too important for Iraq, and now too important for Afghanistan now it's public. What happened to the King on the front line with his sword in his hand?
That's what kept them honest. If the cause warranted them risking their own life to go to war, then it was fair to ask their soldiers to do the same.
At least Harry believed in the cause. Other "leaders" just pretend they do.

Err...like you have evidence of any of this?

William & Harry certainly look like Charles, and have the same mannerisms and speech patterns. You can see Charles' genes in them.

Some things just are what they are.
Maybe Harry wanted to go to Afghanistan because that's what he's trained to do.
Maybe he even has a sense of duty to serve his country.
Maybe he want's to be with his command.
Maybe the British media agreed to not report it because they know it would put not only Harry's life more at risk but also his colleagues.

Maybe no-one really gives a toss who is Harrys real father.

And one thing's for certain, even if Harry, William and Charlie were all to die tomorrow the Royal Family would still go on and the vast majority of Brits wouldn't care less because they have so little bearing on our lives that we are just not that interested in their doing's.

Do we really think that Prince Harrys squad is just a team of green privates fresh out of bootcamp.

Me thinks there would have been some additions, i.e. a few sergeants from Hereford nearby incase some taliban sniper gets within range!

So the danger Prince Harry faces would not be as extreme as some are claiming.

I notice hes got that cap with an American flag in the front and a motto in the back.





Since he says he hates England, perhaps he should come to America. He won't be the only one.
