Royal Blunder

Prince Harry entered the military on his own. Admittedly, it is his family's tradition to enter military service...the better to show the leadership expected from royals. The British military, and I do love this headline (though the reality is troubling), was defeated by a press release. He will not be sent to Iraq, because senior military officials are wussies.

The terrorists have become masters of propaganda, made easier by a willing press corp. This hurts the British Military, the Royal family and bolsters terrorists' claim that the West is weak.
