PRINCE HARRY OFF TO IRAQ…

22-02-2007

And why ever not? The third in line to the throne is being sent along with the rest of his regiment, the Blues and Royals to join the occupying force.

It's been claimed that Harry's presence will represent some kind of “security threat”. It will - but only because he's wearing a British uniform, not because he's a potential future monarch.

The lad has apparently threatened to quit the army if he's prevented from going. Good for him. Let's hope that like the rest of his colleagues, he returns home safe - and soon.
