Prince Harry: Back Because of Blabbers

Long live the Prince! Prince Harry arrived back in Britain today after a 10 week stint in Afghanistan -- withdrawn after the details of his secret deployment became public.

The Prince did not speak to reporters as he left the troop carrier. Surprise, surprise! According to the AP, Harry was greeted by his father and brother at the Brize Norton air base in Oxfordshire, southern England.

Prince Charles spoke about Harry and the media leak saying, "I feel particular frustration that he was removed unexpectedly early because, apart from anything else, he had been looking forward to coming back with the rest of his regiment."

Officials say the Prince could be deployed later this year, but won't pinpoint exactly where. Shocker!

31. Media people are such retards sometimes! Of course they pulled him out of service! He's a freaking Prince! Don't you think that the minute the news of his whereabouts got out, that there might be a possibility that he may get kiddnapped and executed like so many others who have been captured, tortured and killed? I understand the necessity for media, but this was a bone-headed move by the media. Way to go! You just helped the enemy gain pace!

32. i admire the guy - got more balls than most in that castle or whatever you want to call it. He wanted to go & he did - once again the medial screwed that up for him. I am though glad that he is back in the UK. He has sone more than I can say for his father. You go Harry!

35. "Grand Duchess" Alexandra, you would have admired Harry more if he'd stayed over there WHY exactly? So his royal status could get him captured and the rest of his comrades killed? Newflash: Harry WASN'T the ONLY one whose safety was being majorly compromised because the media couldn't keep their big mouths shut. Don't you know that the terrorists would have killed every last one of those people around Harry if that's what it took to capture a prince of Wales?! I'm glad the British military realized that leaving Harry there would just be BEGGING for a tragedy to occur!

He HAD to come back for his own safety as well as the safety of everyone around him, so cut him some slack. Who the heck are YOU to criticize him anyway? How long did YOU spend in Afghanistan? Oh, that's right, YOU never went, so try having a little more respect for someone who did! Shame on you for suggesting that he should have stayed. Point blank, he had absolutely NO choice in the matter--a soldier does what he's TOLD, and he was told to come home! He did all he could and nothing less. If you want to blame someone, blame the MEDIA for putting Harry and all those other brave soldiers at risk!

36. I personally admire the guy for wanting to serveI ! Alt least he has more balls than his father does. Glad he is back safe home and out of harms way. Too bad this couldn't happen to "all our guys". The media is the ones getting everyone wounded or killed.

37. What was the press thinking. Did they REALLY think it was a good idea to blab EXACTLY where Prince Harry & his regiment were located?!!!!! What were they accomplishing besides putting a bullseye on there backs. I'm so tired of the press having no moral conscience!!!!! It was kept a SECRET for a reason, but all they care about is who's beating whom 4 the next story!!!! This is just a sad situation!

39. #17 Had he stayed, he would have proven himself to be a real soldier and not some royal toff/parasite. He loathes his royal cage and cares tremendously about his chaps who had to stay because they don't have a brother who might someday be king. He is only leaving because he was ordered too and the excuse of the safety of his chaps.. Otherwise this brave man would be with his mates to the bitter end.

41. It is not the Bush daughters fault you don't like their dad. Lay off them. I don't see you dumping on Chelsea Clinton's lack of service in the Armed Forces! And Pres. Clinton sent men and women into harms way a few times, too. Grow up and target people who actually deserve it.

43. What fools would admire or want their sons/duaghters to GO TO WAR FOR RICH OIL MEN TO GET RICHER & ENABLE THE PRESIDENT & HIS CRONIES (HALLIBURTON) TO SPEND TRILLIONS OF US $$$$$$ TO MAKE THEMSELVES RICH & BANKRUPT THE USA?????????? THIS WAR IS A RUSE TO S-P-E-N-D $$$$$$$$$$ No one cares about the poor souls who lose LIFE & LIMB for DISGUSTING PRESIDENT BUSH! The poor soldiers who SURVIVE & RETURN HOME AREN'T EVEN GIVEN ADEQUATE HEALTHCARE TO GET BETTER. THEY ARE SENT TO 3RD WORLD STYLE VA HOSPITALS!

I agree with american Commoner, Prince Harrys mission is a PR scheme, isn't he a NAZI lover?
