ANDREW NEIL: Harry's excruciating Taliban killing claim hasn't just created a security nightmare – it's a blunder his reputation will never recover from
Daily Mail ^ | Jan 6 | Andrew Neil

Posted on 01/06/2023 6:42:56 PM PST by RandFan

Among the many incendiary claims in Spare, Prince Harry's upcoming memoir, the boast that he killed 25 Taliban while serving as an Army helicopter pilot in Afghanistan will do him the most long-term damage by far.

I doubt he will recover from it.

Most of the revelations in his book amount to a further public airing of his family's dirty laundry, an endeavour to which he and wife Meghan have devoted their lives since running off in a huff to California. Jaw-dropping as some of them are, their real import serves merely to confirm what most had already concluded about Harry.

Blaming William and Kate for encouraging him to dress up as a Nazi for a fancy-dress party in 2005 illustrates his repeated failure to take responsibility for his own stupid actions and reinforces his default position that, no matter his own culpability, he is always the victim.

Revealing that he lost his virginity to an 'older woman in a field' who 'treated him like a young stallion', sending him on his way with a spank on the bottom, suggests he is no gentleman, for gentlemen simply don't talk of such things — certainly not in public. It's just one example of many of a moment in which good judgment has deserted him.

In relating an altercation with his brother at his London home in 2019 which resulted in him falling on a dog bowl and breaking his necklace, Harry shows that he has lost all self-awareness and is beyond embarrassment. As a friend said to me last night: 'If that had happened to me, I would have gone to my grave without ever mentioning the necklace.'

What is left but to laugh at a Prince who boasts of killing the Taliban but gets distraught over a broken necklace?

All I did was answer someone who asked if I really believed Harry was telling the truth.

I said I think he’s telling the truth.

I’ve seen interviews with her sister and she’s very credible.

Eh. I don't buy the "bullying" stories. The staff sounds oversensitive. Or maybe they were looking for reasons to complain about the American.

The man that filed the complaint is an American, Jeremy Knauff. I remember Harry's "What Meghan wants, Meghan gets". Granny put them in their place.

She did a photo shoot in 2015 and was heartily disliked for her rude and diva attitude. Stories about her aren't new.

I wouldn’t call it nothing as she has political aspirations and if AOC can get elected so can this witch.

“I’ve seen interviews with her sister and she’s very credible.”

I think so too.

We’re discussing this because Harry’s Memoir /book was leaked in Spain yesterday. It wasn’t due for sale for a few more days.

The staff signed a non disclosure upon hire. There have been leaks. Tom Bower and The queens previous butler are close to the family enough to offer valid info. However, To work for the royal family is an important gig for many people in the UK.. I highly doubt they would just quit because she was an American.

The same thing occurred with the staff at Tyler Perry’s mansion. Staff who were with him for years quit while H&M stayed there. Apparently she is abrasive, demanding, and rude.

We know that ‘Arry is nuttier than an English fruitcake

I don’t think they would quit because she’s American, but we Americans do communicate differently than the Brits do, and misunderstandings can happen.

I’ve only heard Tyler Perry say nice things about the couple.

To be clear, I’m not a fan of these two, but I don’t hate them, either, nor am I a big fan (or a hater) of the rest of the royal family.

Liar harry also claims the doctor let him deliver lilibet.

Obgyn has one of the higher malpractice rates

No way do I believe they let her eat at the hospital or that harry delivered the baby

He just a collectivist globalist that RINOs have always been since the founding of the party in 1854.

You have to remember the founding members of the party were collectivists themselves. He’s just keeping the tradition alive.

It’s very common for the father to “deliver” the baby, which means the mother has done all the work and then he pulls the baby out after the last push. The midwife or doctor is right there to guide the father. Then, the father cuts the cord, again with help from the doctor or midwife. My now-ex-husband did it when I gave birth years ago.
