    On the one hand it sucks that he isn’t going to be allowed the chance to serve his country. I mean if he wants to serve, let him serve, but on the other, having him there could put his men at an even greater risk because they will be a much bigger target :?:

    I thought the New York Times was bad but with the British press wanting to tag along they might as well put a neon sign on the Prince, “PRINCE HERE”.

    The Brits again surrender without firing a shot.

    The young Prince should go to Iraq, and a stunt double for the Prince should also go to Iraq. Use the double as a decoy, and bait a trap for the terrorists. Whilst the real Prince is patrolling elsewhere in Iraq.

    Since this is the same pampered little waif that thought it was a cool idea to dress up as a Nazi, I wonder just how popular he would be with the Jew-hating Arabs. You’d think they’d be best pals.

    Just transfer him to another unit. give him a different name if necessary. have him grow some facial hair. perhaps a mustache. :idea:

    kevin: dont get caught up in the mass hysteria of the royal hating dickheads. This is a lifestyle in the UK so when some kid, who should have known better does something stupid everyone goes crackers.Listen up, Harry is a young kid, wernt we all young and stupid once, If you havnt got a memory of something you did at that age without cringing then you really havnt lived a normal life. Give the guy a break, he can never be the king but only live in waiting.
    And another thing: if the UV legs in the picture are a taste of whats at home who would want to be shipped off, where everything female is in a burka or smells. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

    Send him (quietly and covertly) to A-stan … The Limeys still do have troops there, no?

    Anyhow, the Brit press (tabloid when dealing with the Royals) helped bring this on.

  8. Steve in NC

    was this entire training for Iraq was a PR stunt to make him look strong, never intending him to actually see combat in Iraq?

    The Brits have a lot more control over their press than we do, and if they did not want it out, it would not have gotten out.

    BTY is Diana still dead?

  9. Bill S

    He has trained alongside his men. He’s willing to go. He wants to go. He’s a soldier. Just like numerous kings and princes of Britain have fought and died in wars over hundreds of years, he should be allowed to go to war and either die or come back victorious.

    He may be useful as a shooting duck in outing the bad guys for the good guys to kill.

    Who is Britain really trying to save? Prince Harry or members of the liberal media that will be following him.

    We need to remember who really caused the problem with the deployment of 2Lt Wales. General Dannart was happy for him to go when he was facing the same level of risk as any other British soldier in Iraq but the change has come about due to the medias irresponsible reporting.

    Over the past few weeks the British media have leaked; his unit, his deployment date, his job and role, where he would be based, where he would be patrolling, how many men there are in his sub unit, what type of vehicle he will be in and the fact that he would have no additional protection.

    I sincerely hope that they did this without thinking about the consequences but there is a part of me that wonders if they did it knowing that his murder, or worse kidnap, would make the biggest story of the year and make them more money.

    If he was as pissed off as he claims, he should as a platoon commander threaten to resign his commission and go to Iraq as a civvie contractor.
    That might just make his girly Boss reconsider.
    The Brits ponce about saying they wont let terrorist threats dictate policy then what the fuck is this kowtowing crap about??!!
    Grow a pair Britain for fuck sake.
    Go to Iraq young Harry, lead your troops into battle and goad the terrorist stunts by shouting loud and proud, “Come and try it on you feckless cunts so we can kill a shitload of you goat humping pimp God worshipping death cultists….and be home in time for tea and scones… hazzah!”
    Just try saying that with his accent Pat…on video if you please.

  12. FTL

    who ever seriously thought he would be going anywhere….. good thing his uncle earned street cred by hittin’ the falklands. i think it’s all PR b.s. :!:

    i say send him if he wants to go. he’s a friggin’ man already! 3rd in line or not.

  13. terry smyth

    The brit media just want to get him killed so that they can piss of his old man ( charles the greenie) and really upset the Queen. Remember her: shes the one who gave GWB the evil eye when he stated that she must be 200 years old!!!. She’s everybodys Queen not just for the brits and ours but yours too. Treasure her.A rock on responsibility in a feckless world.
    Printing the whereabouts of Harry’s unit and his deployment in Iraq is about as low as the press could get.In another time ( 1939 to 1945) the journos would have been brought to trial and convicted of aiding the enemy. Whats wrong with doing it again. I am sure that if the BBC had a print of every location of the Brit forces in Iraq or Afganistan and the people involved they would put it on the TV and the Internet so that the enemies of the west could derive much pleasure in ambushing the troops.
    A bullet in the ear would be merciful to these bastards.

    … you’re right terry. that whole Loose lips sinks ships” thing was for real back then…. you know there were some great WW II posters that should be rewarmed for today.

    can we post images here? would love to post some NEW photoshopped versions @ some point.

    :roll:

    Hey Terry Smyth: Yeah, I was also young once (shot a brontosaurus when I was eleven) and stupid once, too, but I for damn sure never dressed up as a Nazi!

    And for the record, I have never been a Royal-hater. I think Elizabeth as tons of genuine class, and I have no beef with numerous other royals, but neither of the offspring of Charlie-the-Secret-Muslim have NEVER impressed me as being anything other than spoiled little waifs. Sorry if that doesn’t float your boat, but I have come to wonder just what possible good can come of the Brit royal “line” after Liz. She is in a class by herself and what follows looks rather like bilge to me (if I may borrow one of Bertie Wooster’s lines).

  16. Kevin M

    My bad. Meant have EVER impressed me. Slipped into a double negative there. Too much tequila, I guess.
