After several back and forth reports regarding Prince Harry's possible deployment to Iraq, a final decision has finally been made to keep Harry
out of Iraq. Harry is reportedly upset with the decision, but thankfully isn't throwing a royal hissyfit about it. While I feel bad for Harry, I think it is definitely the right call to make. He is free to make a decision to put his own life in danger, but him being in Iraq makes his whole unit the #1 target. If he were to be captured it would be an international crisis and a huge morale booster to the enemy, much like it is for us when we capture or kill any of their major players. While I don't think anyone is too important to go to war, I think the fact that so many of our enemies will
perceive him as more important than any other soldier will put all of the troops in greater danger than they are already in.
