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 Prince Harry arrived back in Britain today after a 10 week stint in Afghanistan -- withdrawn after the details of his secret deployment became public.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

47. 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?

48. THIS YOUNGMAN IS A HERO.....HE CERTAINLY DIDN'T HAVE TO DO THIS BUT HE DID IT ANYWAY.
AMAZING FELLOW....HE DID SOMETHING HE FELT WAS RIGHT AND DIDN'T WANT TO LEAVE HIS "MATES" TO GO IT ALONE. THAT'S SOMETHING THE COWARDS OUT THERE WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND. GOOD JOB HARRY!

49. If you watch some of the video on the news sites, you can see Prince Harry had scores of people (including a bunch of old men! LOL) with him as his personal security detail....So it cost the British Taxpayer oodles to have him go and play "war". Still, I admire him because he is realitvely normal in a sea of not so normal....thanks to his mum.....

He could beat up "Prance" Von A-Hole with just his pinkie!!! Love it!

50. Welcome home, Harry. Too bad the Brits think it always best to conceal emotions. It would be considered bad form for Prince Charles to say... It is with pleasure and relief I welcome my son safely home from war, just as parents of sons and daughters do in all corners of the world.

51. Drudge is a low-class, despicable reporter....he'll do anything to destroy the lives of others! One can only imagine what he'll do during the upcoming election period.

Harry wanted to honorably serve Britian and none of us needed to know about his service until he returned to Britain!

52. Good for Harry! It's too bad the media blew his cover putting him, his fellow soldiers, and innocent civilians in harm's way by revealing his secret. He would have had the most enormous target on his back, but that would have also put everyone else near him in grave danger. What a shame he had to come back, but good for him for trying to be a "regular" guy and following his goals.

53. What a shocker...a person with celebrity status (a royal, no less), rejecting media attention to serve with his team mates in a war zone. This shows incredible maturity, and courage. It's too bad the weasels in the US Media outed his service, and forced the British Government to cut his service short. He may be 3rd in line to rule England, but he's obviously chosen to contribute as others who are not royal born do. Good for him. This kind of unselfish contribution by someone of such lofty privilege & status puts the arrogant, entitled, dimwitted US morons like SLUTney, WHOREhan, karTRASHIAN, pearASS, all the male media whores & all their sycophantic hangers-on to shame...

54. annie2 - 1. Chelsea was too young to enlist during the gulf war, 2.
her father is not the one who decided to "bomb" Irag. 3. news flash,
Chelsea's dad is not President of the country 4. the present leader
of this country has grown children who could enlist, like many of the
young females who are enlisted, and are now fighting in Irag. Hmmmm....

And finally, perhaps it was someone in the "Royal Family" who had the
picture taken, because they do not want their young prince in battle.
After that, he had no choice but to come back, and yes, not so much
for his sake, but for the sake of others.

55. It was Drudge that spilled the beans on Harry being deployed, not TMZ. Get your facts straight before making your comments.


I am very happy they brought Harry home after the news was leaked, however I am so disappointed in the journalists that leaked it. His life and those in his unit were completely exposed to terrorists hunting them down. Completely irresponsible!


There is great admiration for Harry going to serve in this war. His mother must be so proud of him, as the rest of his family. I salute you Harry. Good job young man and welcome home. Thanks for your service!

56. Annie2...The Bush daughters need to go to Iraq and break a few acrylic nails...the reason I didn't mention Chelsea is I am living in the present...no one was ever talking about Clinton...think before you post

57. A most reliable source tells me Harry's job in Afghanistan was tending bar at the officer mess. The so-called press leak was all pre-arranged so James Hewitt's son could go back to his beloved night clubs. So much for bravery and making the monarchy appear noble. At least the Bush family is not pretending, they will not send a member of that family to either Iraq or Afghanistan.

58. although i admire that he went...young people who don't have to go to war go over there every day,this is not a draft,harry is not a hero,what about the poor kids who are only 21 years old and on there 2nd and 3rd tour,some made it out alive with their sanity intact,but hey,bush will just keep sending them till they are too injured,nut's or dead to go on another tour,they are the hero's,not some prince who goes for 10 weeks and puts everyone at risk,it would only have been a matter of time before the enemy found out he was there,it was just luck they did not find out first,i think it was a big chance to take just for harry to "play"soldier and be "normal" for a few weeks.
