As you know lately, there has been much hullabaloo on Prince Harry and his desire to go to Iraq. What a security nightmare!!! Of course every so called “freedom fighter” in Basra will be aiming for his hide. But what really raised my eyebrows was his recent comment quoted by this AP report. It went a little some’n like this.
“There’s no way I’m going to put myself through Sandhurst, and then sit on my arse back home while my boys are out fighting for their country.”
Royally said my dear prince, well done old chap. However, my surprise was not through. Guess who they went to for an analysis of the whole situation? Check out the excerpt from the same report below.
“It’s entirely understandable that he should want to go,” said William Wallace, a professor emeritus of international relations at the London School of Economics and a British defense expert.
You’ve got to be fucking kidding me!!! Old Braveheart??? Couldn’t they find someone who wasn’t caught and dismembered? British defense expert indeed.
When prodded further with a cattlestick, Mr. Wallace said,
”Aye, fight and you may die, run, and you’ll live… at least for a while. And dying in your beds, many years from now, would you be willin’ to trade ALL the days, from this day to that, for one chance, just one chance, to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take our lives, but they’ll never take… OUR FREEDOM! “
