I guess it wouldn't hurt if they don't give away any pertinent information. They should let the military see it first to approve if it will or won't endanger anyones lives in the field.

The Left want defeat so bad. This is like all the crap movies Hollywood has made since 2003, in which US and coalition soldiers are all psychotics and thugs, and Al Qaeda and their supporters are portrayed as virtuous defenders of their exotic faith and traditions.

Come on, don't you think the enemy hasn't dreamed of that exact scenario? I'm sure there was a huge bonus offered for any Taliban/Terrorist who actually captured or killed the prince during his first tour. This film might have poor taste but is it a new idea?

TimRussert: "The Left want defeat so bad".
What are you on about, man? It's a documentary-style film meant to cause an outcry that results in more fame and fortune, and that's all. It's not really all that different from the movie and drama that surrounded 'Death of a President', or whatever it was called (the movie where bush was assissinated). How you draw the conclusion that this kind of movie means that people who don't hate all Muslims automatically want 'to lose' simply shows how simple your mentality in regards to the world.
It's a movie, and that's all. Watch it or don't. The people who made it aren't 'traitors' or any such garbage the article or others spew. Please try to stay on topic and don't turn everything into rants based on personal insecurities.

I guess I missed that one. You watched a documentary about a bush getting "assissinated" ?

Harry “was informed of the documentary and its content and his reaction is private,”
Love it! I bet his reaction was not as much "private" as unprintable.

Britain is a country with free speech and media. If some don`t like that fact, they should reside elsewhere, perhaps Iran.

Except that if a documentary were done about say, the capture of Osama bin Laden, certain members of the modern British public - - but we can't say which! - - would riot in the streets of Bradford...

smithinjapan, you are correct in that regards. It is just a movie, and I don't have to watch it.
But, then why is it that the creators of the cartoon South Park had to censor their show on Mohammed, and why other artist who have drawn pictures that muslims deem offensive to the prophet have to go into hiding. After all, if they find it offensive, they don't have to watch it. But, we are not afforded that opportunity to see it uncensored.

Tim, those movies sound interesting - can you name one?

TmRussert: There would be no problem about similar one made about Bin Laden. Muslims will not go nits in his name in Britain.
