Prince Harry in Afghanistan


Prince Harry, 3rd in line to the British Throne (and a few other places beside e.g. Canada, Australia, New Zealand and some others I can't remember), has been in Afghanistan fighting for Queen and Country or George Bush, since December. The story had been embargoed and an agreement reached by the 4th Estate to keep things secret til he came home. Nice to know that what we know, is now on a need to know basis between the state and the media.
The Drudge Report broke the story and Harry has been withdrawn as his presence as a bullet magnet is no longer sustainable.

You might find this take interesting, and I tend to agree with it:
