Prince Harry is going to Iraq!!.

And I quote, “There’s no way I’m going to put myself through Sandhurst and then sit on my arse back home while my boys are out fighting for their country,” Harry said at presstime.

As one blogger puts it, If we don’t care about our own sons (the whole “Not In My Backyard” thing has reached an all-time high as of late, with moms and dads who supported the war three years ago suddenly freaked out when their precious teenage boys get all fired up about service), then perhaps we will pay attention to the war when celebrity sons are sent overseas.

Prince Harry, in Iraq??!!! Interesting, to say the least, especially since British Prime Minister Tony Blair just announced the UK’s official withdrawl plan from the nation, starting with 1,600 troops in coming months.
