Whether you agree with him being sent to Iraq or not, here's an excerpt from the statement made by General Sir Richard Dannatt, Chief of the General Staff.

There have been a number of specific threats – some reported and some not reported - which relate directly to Prince Harry as an individual. These threats place not only him but also those around him to a degree of risk that I now deem unacceptable. Now that I have decided that he will not be deploying with his Troop, the risks faced by his Battlegroup are no different to those faced by any other Battlegroup or other of our Servicemen in Iraq.
