CONFIRMED: Prince Harry Killed Taliban Insurgents in Afghanistan

Prince Harry returned to Britain after his second deployment to war-torn Afghanistan acknowledging the fact that he killed Taliban insurgents as a gunner in Apache attack helicopters. The number of how many insurgents Harry might have killed is unknown, but the Prince of Wales said it was sometimes justified to “take a life to save a life.”


The Taliban said that it would do its utmost to kidnap or kill the prince, who called him a drunken “jackal” out to kill innocent Afghans. Prince Harry was known in the military as Captain Harry Wales and was deployed shortly after he was photographed naked after losing a game in strip billiards. His job as Apache co-pilot was to man its weapon system when his unit flew sorties to back up troops fighting on the ground.

Harry said killing was not the reason he became a gunner.


The prince, who is third in line for the throne, prior served as a combat soldier in Helmand for 10 weeks between 2007 and 2008.
