DRUDGE REPORT broke this news today...

"PRINCE HARRY FIGHTS ON FRONTLINES IN AFGHANISTAN; 3 MONTH TOUR"

Harry has already been in Afghanistan fighting for 10 weeks.

(So he may have 2-3 weeks left on his tour of duty?

...Or, since the word is out-- Maybe not?))

THE BRITISH MILITARY IS VERY UPSET THAT THE STORY WAS LEAKED!

Nothing like putting a BIG TARGET on the young British Prince!

Drudge reported this on "Hero Harry":

They're calling him "Harry the Hero!"

British Royal Prince Harry has been fighting in Afghanistan since late December -- and has been directly involved in gun battle, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.

The prince, a junior officer in the Blues and Royals, and third in line to the throne, has been a "magnificent soldier" and an "inspiration to all of Briton."

Prince Harry is talking part in a new offensive against the Taliban.

Ministry of Defense and Clarence House refuse all comment. Army chiefs have managed to keep the prince away from media and have encourage fellow soldiers in his squadron to stay quiet.

The BBC reported this on the brave young prince:

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.

"I finally get the chance to do the soldiering that I want to do," the prince said ahead of his deployment.

The deployment was subject to a news blackout deal, but broke down when leaked on US website the Drudge Report.

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

Pics of Prince Harry in Afghanistan

He looks more like a film star than a Prince, let alone a serving soldier - but this is Harry enjoying a lighter moment on operation in Afghanistan.



Riding a spluttering motorbike, he looks like a boy with a new toy as he careers across the desert, laughing as he goes.

"No brakes! No brakes!", the Prince shouts as he digs his heels into the dirt to stop the vehicle, which he had found abandoned moments earlier.

Harry, 23, a Cornet - or Second Lieutenant - in the Household Cavalry, has been playing his part in the war on the Taliban in Helmand Province since mid-December.

The deployment was cloaked in secrecy to prevent the Taliban finding out and making him and his comrades a target.

But a news blackout broke down last night after details were leaked on influential foreign websites.

These pictures were taken in Afghanistan as part of a deal between the media and the Ministry of Defence, which allowed reporters access to the Prince in Helmand.

Details were to be held back until his expected safe return to the UK in April but can be now be released with MoD approval after the leaks.

The motorbike was found abandoned during a stop on a patrol in the desert in Spartan light tanks.

More power at the back: Harry gets a helping hand as he kickstarts the bike










Harry dashed across to investigate the bike and check it was safe before wheeling it across to his fellow soldiers to try to get it started.

Ripping a spangly Afghan cushion off the Honda 6125, he joked that it did not fit with his soldier look.

But he nevertheless forgot to remove two fetching silk flowers attached to the front as he jumped on.











With Trooper Qoriniasi Matai Loloma, from Suva, Fiji, giving him a much-needed push the engine spluttered into life, allowing Harry to enjoy a few laps of the surrounding sand.

Then it was his turn to push as Lance Corporal Steve "Geri" Halliwell, from Bolton, had a go.
But as the engine spluttered and failed, Harry landed on his back in laughter - still not admitting defeat.

You have to admit the kid has balls. If I was in a royal family I'll be on a yacht with underage sluts not fighting in Afkoonistan.

His uncle fought in Falkland war, why not him?

Because the taleban are gay opportunists with no POW laws wheras the argentinians were probably much more decent.

British Islamists Threaten Prince Harry on His Return Home

Prince Harry says he was happier in Afghanistan now that he is back home.

As Prince Harry returned home today, British Radical Islamists threatened the young prince after it was announced that he was fighting the Taliban in Afghanistan this week.
The Daily Express and LGF Quick Links reported:

Muslim fanatics labelled Prince Harry a target for assassins last night after his heroics against the Taliban.

Harry’s perilous Army mission in Afghanistan was dismissed by British extremists as a mere publicity stunt.

But they also claimed that by participating in an “illegal war”, the brave young Prince had made himself fair game for a terrorist attack.

Tory MPs last night condemned the outpourings by three influential Islamic radicals as “highly irresponsible”. Andrew Rosindell, who represents Romford in Essex, said: “This is an appalling thing for them to say.”

Yesterday’s outbursts came as Harry was on his way home amid fears for his safety after details of his exploits in Helmand province emerged.

Anjem Choudary, former leader of British-based radicals Al Muhajiroun, said: “He will be seen as part of the enemy and so he is a target. This is an illegal war and it should be seen in that light, and for Harry to participate has absolutely no justification. Those who want to carry out operations over here will target Harry. He is a natural target for someone that way inclined.”

Choudary, right-hand man to hate preacher Omar Bakri Mohammed, added: “There have been many wiser and braver men who have decided not to participate and who have objected.

Bakri himself said: “He is just doing it for publicity – for him he has been on a picnic. I do not believe he is there to engage or fight.

“He is there for publicity for himself and for the Royal Family. I do not think he is a threat to Al Qaeda or the Taliban.” Bakri, 49, who now lives in Lebanon after being barred from Britain, accused the Government of being “irresponsible”.

He said: “They say they have an integrated society and then they are involving themselves in a war which is unjust.

“Harry should now come out and tell everyone what he saw and what he has experienced.

“He should tell the Muslim community what he thinks and if he would go out again. He should condemn the persecution taking place and call for troops to withdraw.”

Earlier, Inayat Bunglawala, assistant secretary-general of the Muslim Council of Britain, said Harry would be a target if he stayed in Afghanistan.

“I am sure many Afghans opposed to the British presence will see him as a high-value target,” he said. Harry is expected to be back on British soil today. But he has been warned to stay away from his favourite London nightclubs for fear of presenting an easy target for the terrorists.

Prince Harry returned home to Great Britain this morning the BBC News reported.
