The article discusses the criticism received by British Prince Harry for showing up at a costume party with a swastika on his arm. We have England in an uproar about Prince Harry and his silly armband. All this, while "The Producers" is playing in London to packed houses. Of course, the leaders of major Jewish organizations have had a field day, broadcasting their shock and dismay on an hourly basis and telling Harry to jog round the Auschwitz perimeter another couple of times. Harry could have gone to that party in diapers, or even as a foot. But instead he tried to be a manly man and went as a soldier, and got into a whole heap of trouble.
