    It shows that in British Government's eyes all army men are not equal. Some have special status to them.

    Just because this idiot was born with a silver spoon up his arse does not make him any more valuable than anyone else in conflict.

    If the above is Harry...

    here could be one of his bashers:

    Just because this idiot was born with a wooden spoon up his arse does not make him any more valuable than anyone else in conflict.

    The difference could be just a tiny little detail.

    Anyway, if it was a PR thing we would have known that a long time ago, not after 2 and a half months.
    Afghanistan is getting worse while Irak is getting better.
    Harry fought to be able to fight.
    Harry was withdrawn because he was a danger for the rest of the lads.

    His haters can say what you want, but prince Harry did a great job and service to his country, including idiots, something that many can go proud of, excluding idiots.

    IMHO this is more of a problem of Harry endangering others if he stay on, I think the British govt did correctly. If you send Bush to fight in Iraq, all units will have to risk their lives protecting him rather than fighting, this is counterproductive. Same with Harry here.

    Man should have courage to die for their kingdom if they have a kingdom.
    I don't get the idea of those telling us that democracy is good having kings and queens.

    Well, I think it was right that he was out there and right, now that his cover has been blown by some scabby foreign news agency (not the Brit tabloids), that he has been withdrawn back to Blighty. It will have done his men the power of good to see their royal boss taking incoming fire right beside them. Now the genie is out of the bottle he is all too tempting a target.
