A former British officer criticized Prince Harry’s characterization of his time with the military as “ill-judged” and stated it “doesn’t reflect reality.” 

“That’s not the case at all, and it’s not the way the British Army trains people as he claims,” Col. Richard Kemp, former British Army officer, stated throughout an look on BBC Breakfast. “I think that sort of comment that doesn’t reflect reality, is misleading and potentially valuable to those people who wish the British forces and British government harm, so I think it was an error of judgment.”

Kemp, who commanded U.K. forces in Afghanistan in 2003, clarified his comments to Fox News Digital, saying “The mischaracterization of the British Army as training its soldiers to treat their enemy as less than human will feed jihadist propaganda that radicalizes and incites extremists to carry out attacks.” 

“It has already been seized on by the Taliban, which has accused Prince Harry of war crimes on the basis of what is in his book,” Kemp stated. “His excellent military reputation will be tarnished, because he has misrepresented the ethos of the British Army and its soldiers,” Kemp added.

“In truth, you can’t hurt people if you see them as people,” Harry said of his military service. “They were chess pieces taken off the board, bad guys eliminated before they kill good guys. They trained me to ‘other’ them and they trained me well.”

Kemp, throughout his BBC Breakfast look, famous that the prince ought to be “proud” of his kill depend as a result of its “effect impact” and for his work to champion wounded troopers, however he frightened that the memoir may “provoke” the Taliban and sympathizers.

“Our innocent people were chess pieces to your soldiers, military and political leaders,” Haqqani wrote. “Still, you were defeated in that ‘game’ of white & black ‘square’.”

Haqqani added that he didn’t anticipate the International Criminal Court to behave on what Harry has written, as a result of they’re “deaf and blind” for him.
