Prince Harry Won't Go to Iraq After All
British authorities have decided it's too dangerous for Prince Harry to go to Iraq -- his face has been too well-publicized and he's too big a target.
Prince Harry is said to be very disappointed. I can only think about how relieved Diana would be, if she were alive. A smart decision. If he is a individualized target, there's also a much greater risk of danger to his team members traveling with him.
I don't think it's a question of valuing his life more than others. I think it's a question of whether sending him amounts to state-assisted suicide because he'd be such a trophy for the insurgents.
