Hold your peace (Prince Charles against Iraq war and against America?)

... "He has this lunatic view he is the voice of the people" ...

Indeed.

[egarvue]

Isn't it refreshing to live in a country that had the balls to tell their former king to go to hell? May the inbred, adulterous bonnie Prince Charlie rot there as well...

[Hugin]

Does anyone care what the human tampon thinks?

[CROSSHIGHWAYMAN]

That big-eared bloke has good taste too.

Seems like he would have rather kept the horse-faced gene in his family, considering the old ugly bag he preferred over Diana.

[conservatism_IS_compassion]

What relation, exactly, is Chuck to the pro-NAZI Duke of York of the WWII era?

[NonValueAdded]

Enlighten us, please. What is Mad Ivan's take on this?

[MadIvan]

You mean the Duke of Windsor, formerly the Prince of Wales and Edward VIII - he is Charles' great uncle.

Charles—who reads the Koran every day and often adopts Islamic dress at home—spends long hours discussing the Middle East's problems with Saudi royal family members.

As the head of the Church of England, does he ever read his Bible ?

Me thinks the Crowns's fear of a Muslim too close to the throne (in the case of Dodi Fayed and Princess Di) was misplaced. It seems that Charles has taken on alien robes.

[MadIvan]

My take is that Charles is erratic. Sometimes he does good things like refusing to meet with Jiang Zemin and criticising modern architecture. Other times he is just plain bizarre - preferring Camilla Parker Bowles to Princess Di, for example (In case he's reading this - Charles, I don't fancy yours, mate).

I have a fundamental gut feeling that Charles should not be king, and that it should pass to Wills who will be a good king precisely because he doesn't want the job. This feeling is only reinforced by stories like this.

Charles should know by Bubba's example that the American public doesn't care about the opinions of a man who has made a living off of the public dole his entire life.

"Charles—who reads the Koran every day and often adopts Islamic dress at home"

What the?

This bozo is supposed to be "the defender of the Faith (Christianity)"

[Thinkin' Gal]

It seems that Charles has taken on alien robes.

[Tax-chick]

Probably thinks he's Lawrence of Arabia or something.

[bevlar]

Hey Bonnie Prince Charlie!!!! Get a JOB!!! Why don't we stop subsidizing these inbred morons!?!?!?

[OldFriend]

If it weren't for Tony Blair, there would be no more monarchy following Princess Diana's death.

Ugly man should just shut up and go back to talking to his veggies.

[OldFriend]

I suspect the Queen agrees with you that Charles should NOT be king.

[cowtowney]

I have this vision of Charles in his castle jumping up and down stomping his feet because no rational person takes him seriously.

Charles—who reads the Koran every day and often adopts Islamic dress at home—spends long hours discussing the Middle East's problems with Saudi royal family members.

I find this hard to believe.

Looking at the home page of The News of the World it appears to be the British version of the Enquirer. Does this paper have any credibility? Are there any other sources for this information?

[I_Love_My_Husband]

IMHO, he's too close to the Arabs and should NOT be King, I'm hoping Prince William has a better head on his shoulder than Prince Charles.

Charles was an adulterer and it was his abandonment of her that set her off into a very bad path.
