The Pakistani soldier at the centre of the Prince Harry race row has sprung to his defence.
It’s after the Royal grandson was caught on film three years ago referring to one of his platoon members as “our little Paki friend”.
The Prince has actually called Ahmed Khan to apologise, and apparently he told Harry to forget about it, that he has no hard feelings and didn’t take offense.
So why was everyone else so outraged? After all, however racist ‘Paki’ has been in the past and is still in some circles, offense, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder. Ahmed Khan knew that Harry meant no harm. And that’s the end of it.
Thank God. I can go back to calling my Australian friends ‘Aussies’ and my fellow British citizens ‘Brits’, without expecting to be mobbed.
