"He realises it was a poor choice of costume"

Just a simple wardrobe malfunction.

He sure is an ignorant pup, isn't he?
To bad he didn't live in the 40's, like his Grandma!

I imagine having lost his mother at a young age has clouded his judgment.

He should have said he was masquerading as his uncle, the Duke of windsor.

Don't excerpt the BBC, and when you do excerpt include more then one line.

--

Prince Harry has apologised for wearing a swastika armband to a friend's fancy dress party.
Clarence House issued a statement in response to a photograph published on the front page of the Sun newspaper under the headline, "Harry the Nazi".

It read: "Prince Harry has apologised for any offence or embarrassment he has caused. He realises it was a poor choice of costume."

The Board of Deputies of British Jews said the costume was in "bad taste".

A spokesman said: "The board is pleased that he's apologised for the incident.

"It was clearly in bad taste, especially in the run-up to holocaust memorialday on the 27th of this month, which the Royal Family will be taking a leadingrole in commemorating."

The picture was taken at the weekend at a friend's birthday party in Wiltshire, which had the fancy dress theme "colonial and native".

Prince Harry, 20, appears to be wearing a German desert uniform and a swastika armband.

'Mistake'

Rabbi Dr Jonathan Romain, of the Reform Synagogues of GreatBritain, said: "The fact that the palace has issued an apology indicates thatthis was a mistake by the prince.

"But having been given, the apology should now be accepted."

But the Queen's former assistant press secretary, Dickie Arbiter, said: "This young man has got to come up front and be seen in person making an apology."

Former armed forces minister Doug Henderson MP said the picture showed the prince was "not suitable" for the prestigious royal military academy Sandhurst, which he is due to attend later this year.

"If it was anyone else, the application wouldn't be considered. It should be withdrawn immediately," said the Labour MP for Newcastle upon Tyne North.

The prince, who is third in line to the throne, hit the headlines last year after a scuffle with a photographer at a nightclub.

The Sun reported that Prince William was also at the party - dressed as a lion.

If he'd worn a hammer-and-sickle, he'd've been applauded as terribly fashionable.

Well, at least he wasn't wearing a big afro and painted his face black, then he would have really offended the lefties!

Prince Harry is apparently very fond of elephants, and he wanted to wear a symbol of his love of Ganesh, thus the symbol on his arm...

The swastika has been used in several cultures long before it was absconded by Hitler.

Due to Hitler's use of it, it has been PC-ed into an evil sign.

Someone needs to inform the child that the Nazis wanted to kill Great Grandad and Great Grandma.

I went as fully dressed Nazi on Halloween in eighth grade. Dad was in Germany just after the war and had a bunch of war memorabilia.

I thought it was unique and historical. Teachers and the administration did not share the same view, and made me remove everything with a Swastika after I was called to the office in 3rd hour.

Sorry Harry, my costume was way cooler.
