Prince Harry in Taleban fighting

[Mr.Sam]

Prince Harry has been fighting the Taleban on the front line in Afghanistan, the Ministry of Defence has confirmed. Harry, 23, who is third in line to the throne, has spent the last 10 weeks serving in Helmand Province.
It comes after the prince's planned tour to Iraq last year had to be cancelled because of a security risk sparked by publicity.

the bbc updated;

Chief of the General Staff Sir Richard Dannatt, who is head of the British Army, said he was disappointed the news had leaked.

In a statement, he said: "I am very disappointed that foreign websites have decided to run this story without consulting us.

"This is in stark contrast to the highly responsible attitude that the whole of the UK print and broadcast media, along with a small number overseas, who have entered into an understanding with us over the coverage of Prince Harry on operations.

In an interview in Helmand Province, Harry - a member of the Household Cavalry - talked about life as a soldier on the front line.

"I haven't really had a shower for four days, I haven't washed my clothes for a week.
"It's very nice to be sort of a normal person for once, I think it's about as normal as I'm going to get."

I'm very happy the news wasn't released straight the way... Could cause some problems now it's been leaked though, since the Taleban know he's in Afghanistan now (if he still is...) so they might get targeted more...

But I won't start the same debate that happened last year

I expect he will be moved provinces but kept in the country, it would be hard to spot him in his army gear anyway, he just looks like a normal soldier.

A video showing white students bullying black staff members was "no more than play-acting" according to a lawyer's letter, South African media report.

The video shows white students at the University of Free State allegedly forcing black employees to eat food that had been urinated on.
It sparked widespread condemnation and students and staff held an anti-racism march at the campus in Bloemfontein. Two students have been suspended from campus and could face criminal charges.

Why whould they drink and eat the food which has been pissed?
And then pepole will say that's PlayActing?
That's the most ridicoulous thing i have ever heard in my life.

Woops wrong Thread

I'm really pleased about the news, sadly it does put the Army at risk as they're meant to 'take his bullets' should he come under attack. But he is in the army and he wanted to fight, and he also went 10 weeks undercover so it's all good news.

Shame some stupid Australian's and American's leaked the news, but he lasted 10 weeks so it's not a complete disaster.

Good luck

Good to hear they're treating him like any other soldier.
