Off the Iraq Hook...




"I know Prince Harry will be extremely disappointed and his soldiers will miss his presence in Iraq.

"I've asked his commanding officer to develop his future career but I won't speculate on that.

"One of the contributing factors to my decision has been the knowledge and discussion of the Prince's deployments in the media."

Chief of the General Staff, General Sir Richard Dannatt

I don't think they ever planned to send Harry to Iraq, but needed to pretend to do so to keep the "Stiff British upper lip" image in tact.

The media is a very believable and convenient excuse to keep the "spare" safe.
