Prince Harry leaving the armed forces to pursue conservation projects in Africa

Prince Harry leaving the armed forced to pursue conservation projects in Africa - People - News - The Independent

Is it a karma thing? Kill a few (semi-defenceless) afghans then help save a few Africans....."Leaving"? I'd be surprised if the military even notice he's gone.:hidewall:

I still remember the (propaganda) interview where he had the staged call out and had to cut the interview short and run to the chopper.

Semi- defenceless? Really?

I doubt if the 3400 dead and 26000 injured coalition forces would agree with you.

He was a target out there, maybe a well protected one but the Taliban are clever, you can bet they knew he was there-a prime target.

Re: Prince Harry leaving the armed forces
 

if by semi defenceless you mean a AK47 weilding goat herder then yes i agree

and thats just the children the dads get to play with rocket launchers as well

the women ... well we dont hear much from the women they are sat at home doing as they are told

Re: Prince Harry leaving the armed forces
 

I don't want to go on a prince bashing rant G, he's my favourite royal but,I doubt he's ever been in any real danger.
By "semi defenceless" I mean a rusty old AK47/rocket launcher isn't the same as a sophisticated apache helicopter.

Re: Prince Harry leaving the armed forces
 

im no fan of the royals and i agree he would be very well protected and most of the footage of him out there will be feel good propoganda but i wouldnt step foot in that crap hole even with an apache helicoptor protecting me.

even a crappy old rocket launcher can bring down a multi million pound helicoptor although admitidly if someone aske me to shoot down an apache helicoptor id ask for something a little more substantial to shoot at it preferably controlled from a remote location

Re: Prince Harry leaving the armed forces
 

However protected he was he did his service just like the next man and for that he deserves a 'little' respect,he's a good un like his mother.

Re: Prince Harry leaving the armed forces
 

He was in Helmand same time as my step daughter and from what I've been told he did his bit.

You don't half talk some shi-ite lad! Are you really that stupid or is there just something in your make up that encourages you to be so contrary? Maybe it's down to being addled through your habit?

I'm no great supporter of the monarchy (I can take 'em or leave 'em) but it's something we've got in the UK which sets us apart from other nations. There's enough folk ready to gripe about them being worthless & not worth their money, yet when you get one of them actually doing something productive & worthwhile (and I class taking out weapon toting ragheads who're trying to kill & maim our troops as a prime example of something worthwhile) there's them as'll bitch about that too!

At least the lad & others like him have served their country (unlike some) & whether you or anyone else agrees or disagrees with what our armed forces are asked to do "At our behest", at least he's protecting the liberties of you & others so you can have the freedom & right to spout your cobblers without fear or recriminations.

Re: Prince Harry leaving the armed forces
 

Both he and William did one of the hardest jobs there is- learned to fly a helicopter( and did it in combat conditions)- something I doubt I could ever learn.
For two guys in their position they've grown up just about as normal a pair as is possible and haven't been wrapped in cotton wool. Good for them.

Re: Prince Harry leaving the armed forces
 

You know those rusty old AK47's still work and if your shot with one, I am sure you would not be too happy. Same with a hand held SAM, if it hits you, you're going to have a bad day.

If you want to help, those pood defenceless Afgans, I am sure we can help send you out.

ON a side note, having flown a Boeing 737 into Baghdad, Sulaymaniyah and Basra I can assure you there is lots of danger there, even for a soft civvy as myself and my fellow crew.

Anyone, including both Princes and their Uncle Andrew, who has served for our country, deserve our respect.

It is time that he kept his mouth shut about subjects that he has no knowledge or understanding of.

AccyEx goes to the stables to fetch his moral high horse....

.....It may well be "shi-ite" as you say but (like it or not) it's a opinion I'm entitled to.

The fact he's a prince is irrelevant and like I've already said the lad deserve's (a little) respect for serving his country.
After all,it takes guts (and brains) to fly a attack helicopter at "ragheads" with the equivalent of peashooters.... but like harry said playing computer games helps :rolleyes:

I apologise if my finding the fact he is killing "ragheads" as a participant in an a (illegal) war disgusting.
Contrary to popular belief, I don't think I know everything about everything.
I may be a chromosome or two away from a special parking badge and half baked but, I know blowing stuff to pieces, killing folk, and generally trying to prove you've the biggest Richard isn't the best way to make them "ragheads" reconsider their position.
Take a moment and think how many "ragheads" lives our boys have made a living hell by blowing 'their' relatives to pieces.

Re: Prince Harry leaving the armed forces
 

No, it's time those with no real input did :rolleyes:

Re: Prince Harry leaving the armed forces
 

Fair comment,I won't argue with that G.

Re: Prince Harry leaving the armed forces
 

I could respond to you Accyexplorer, explaining how all this started, US Embassy Bombings, Attacks on New York etc, but you really are not worth my time or effort. Go back to your illegal drugs
