Prince Harry is Going

450_ap_harry_070222This is commendable and worth mentioning. Prince Harry will be going to servein Iraq in a combat capacity. Gen. Sir Richard Dannatt (the head of the Britisharmy) said "The decision has been taken by myself that he will deploy indue course", which may be true, but let's not forget what the Princesaid last year:

“There’s no way I’m going to put myself through Sandhurst and then siton my arse back home while my boys are out fighting for their country . . . Thatmay sound very patriotic but it’s true.”

Its a shameWashington's Elite can't tout this type of bravery of their own. If they could, maybethe spin would be Gen.Petraeus  saying "The decision has been taken by myself that he willNOT deploy indue course"

This is a brave stance by the Prince,especially after the commander of the Mahdi Army said ofthe possibility of the Prince serving i Iraq:

"One of our aims is to capture Harry, we have people inside the Britishbases to inform us on when he will arrive," commander Abu Mujtaba is quotedas saying.
