I find it very convenient that she now allegedly has amnesia and can't recall what really happened to her. By the time she gives a public account the US spin doctors may've gotten to her first...

Evidence shows both sides, however eyewitness accounts are not favouring the US's claim....

Sorry to double post, but...

Do YOU think the rescue was real, or staged?

Oddly, I don't know much about it, but I'll look around for some articles later, unless you have any you'd like to share?

Who cares if she's catholic or not?
As if it even mattered.

On the other hand, I don't think she was brainwashed.
I believe the most likely thing that happened was that she had the entire sequence of events explained to her, at great detail.

Or maybe she really just doesn't feel like sharing such a traumatic event with the whole world just yet. Ever consider that?

My parents are catholic but niether of them go to church anymore or take me, as a kid I never cared much for religion. My reasons for not being Catholic come from what I know of history while yours are mostly just coming from angst.

On the other hand, I will delete the next post here that is off-topic. =D

Ah, yes, to contribute something to this post...

...

...Jessica Lynch is a case we're not going to hear the full story on for a long time to come. There has been something fishy about it since the beginning, and it's only a matter of time until we find out just what that fishy thing was. And it wasn't Jessica. Mwaha.

I think this thing with Jessica Lynch is very similar to the movie Enemy at the Gates. I'm sure there's some truth to what we heard about what happened to her. How much truth? Who's to say? The war ended really fast but I'm sure that if the war had stretched on long enough we would have eventually heard stories of her taking down the Iraqis a dozen at a time with bolts of lightning from her eyes and balls of fire from her arse.

Sorry about all the movie references. I don't get out much.

Oddly enough, many of the original reports have been "replaced".

Thanks for the info!

Again, the Convenience Theory...

To summarise, Lynch is just a 20 year old Army supply clerk, who allegedly held off enemies while her comrades retreated with a gun, taking down several. She was then captured and taken to hospital, but slapped and sustained gunshot/knife wounds. The army later staged a dramatic rescue in the hospital (guns firing and all, Black Hawk Down "go go go" style) which apparently offered no resistance.

D'you think this could be made into a movie like Black Hawk Down?

And did you Iraqi commanders were distributed copies of the above movies to analyse guerilla tactics that beat elite US forces?

Indeed, if the Iraqis are made out of pure evil why would they have kept her in a hospital?

I keep hearing and reading things that are quite interesting about her. First there sthe "Ranbo" heroics when she was ambused then she was shot and stabed when she was captuered. But I keep seeing stuff about her not having any such wounds whats so even. Even from the ambush. I also heard (but am not fully beleiving) that the maries that saved her used blanks to attack. this would of pumped up the "looks" of the fight but no one would be hurt. I doubt this on becuase no half-ass leader would send in any one into a hot zone with blanks. It is supported however by the fact that noone in the hospital was so much as hurt by bullets. Quite interesting considering the firepower blasting it. Lastly theres reports about there being no enemy troops in the hospital at the time because they fleed days before. Yet the U.S still used a overpowering force to capture a defenselss building?

It's great that you have finally accepted that, admitting you have a problem is the first step.

That's also part of what I heard, and am hearing as time goes on. Very suspicious. I bet they're pumping "facts" into her right now, so she can tell it to the public.

And you three, pls don't fight here, personal attacks don't contribute anything to the discussion.

Jimsweens post seems pretty off topic. Wonder why it wasn't deleted? Little catholic bastard.

Anyway. Its odd how the story kept changing. First she was tortured and they broke her bones to get her to talk. Then her bones were broken in the fight, now they are just broken. Odd that she hasn't said a word to anyone, but all this information has been out and changed so soon. She must not be able to remember the story they told her to tell after she got back yet.

Off topic?!? Try "Accepted fact you can't debate without the two main stiflers whining about something petty."

Everyone thinks it, you know.

Not at all, this is the perfect example of the media giving the public what it wants: exciting war stories where the good guys save the day and kill all the bad guys, and wrap it all in their flag.

Come on Jim, stock saying "hypocritical" all the time. I'll tell you what is hypocritical. Today I bought a packet of fresh nice tobacco and on the packet they printed a grand warning to all smokers out there stating "All smokers die younger".
Woohhoooo
