The truth about the rescue of Private Jessica Lynch

I think everyone here is forgetting the important issues.......like this porno that she is going to star in.

Actually though, this is kind of stupid where the media makes a big thing about all of this bullshit and then when the truth actually does come out, if it ever does, they only make a small mention of it. In the end everyone remembers the big media blitz and were never even aware of or remember the truth in the end coming out. Funny how that is.....

Sort of sounds like the person who wrote the story that this thread got started with was kind of confused with the approaching marines and such.

The story on which this topic was started with sounds extremely far fetched.

And to answer why no one was allowed to talk to her, no one is allowed to talk to any POWs when they come back, you have no idea the type of mental status they have.

I really don't feel like explaining the whole thing out, but the story link I just posted seems quite a bit more realistic.

I did find the "Go Go GO" thing rather interesting...as SEALs wouldn't do that. Yeah...the more I read this story the more it sounds like bullshit. They moved Jessica Lynch out of the hospital? I find it hard to believe that is possible when the USA couldn't even get IN to that area for quite a bit, and HOSPITAL Personel would even think about sneaking her out...I don't know about you guys, I think its bullshit.

I'm so upset. I just told my mom about this story, and she informed me that Jessica Lynch is now claiming amnesia.

I strongly doubt that she is "claiming" amnesia on her own. A more accurate hypothosis is that she is being orderd to claim amnesia. That goes for the physicians who are saying this too. I smelled a rat on this story from the moment she hit U.S. soil on the return flight. Two things I noticed: 1. all media were kept at a distance from her and she was also, quite obviously, very drugged-up upon arrival. 2.(and this is the most important factor) her family were shown greeting her quickly and then ushered off without saying a word to the press. Soundbites from happy parents are gold for the media, in cases like this. The military doesn't want a word of what really happened to begin to trickle out.

Of course, the funniest part is that her doctors are saying, already, that she may NEVER remember any of the events which took place during her capture. How convenient.
 
What the fuck? What could possibly be that they would want to hide? The fact the doctors treated her well? Please, you guys aren't thinking with logic.

So what information have you heard on the other POWs we got back? Why don't you fucking question about that bullshit?

You guys, I understand shit gets covered up, but this...there is absolutly no grounds to cover anything up...they have a lot more shit to worry about other then that Jessica Lynch may have recieved excellent care with the Iraqis.

Fuck.

The point is, we got our asses beat when we weren't caughtious enough.

If that wasn't true, how did she get to that hospital? We got ambushed, a handeful of our men got fucked up.

Proporganda plays a large role in wars, you need your people feeling good about what they are doing. But the fact that you think the government is trying to cover up something with Jessica is just retarded.

There were other POWs you know...In fact if there was something to cover up you would have never heard about it as fast as we did, there was no news reporters when this happend.

It is all just propoganda, nothing more than that.

I am sick of hearing about her as well. There were other POWs, and they aren't glorified nearly as much as Jessica, and I saw the conditions they were in, aside from standing around a bunch of their executed comrads, shit was great.
 
You also have to take into consideration that a lot of the bullshit that happens is the media's fault. I really don't think the government would be as sloppy.

If you are watching a channel that reports that she fell out of her vehicle and sustained some injuries...and then you switch the channel to someone reporting she was beaten and shot at while at the hospital (which I'm to believe is not the truth) you will most likely watch the channel that is giving you all the terrible details (true or untrue). That channel's ratings go up.

I personaly didn't believe for one second she had been shot other then maybe in battle.

Ugh, this is bothering me, I wish I could talk to you guys in person, it would be easier for me to explain the holes in all of this. It isn't that big of a deal as everyone is making it, this whole...were they good to her were they not. The point is she made it home.

The government wouldn't waste their time trying to cover up if the doctors were nice to them or not. Right now there is the video floating around of our dead soldiers with the other POWs, right now they will be focusing on the 9 bodies that we found along with Jessica, and the bodies (i dont know if we recovered them...hmmm) that were lying dead next to our other POWs...WITH BULLET HOLES IN THE FORHEADS. I personaly think they were executed, as I doubt those fucking ---------- are that good of a shot. Now the government would focus in on that, not Jessica Lynch.

I'm in awe about how much attention she is getting when...the videos are on the net for everyone to watch of our soldiers lying dead next to the other POWs.
 
After all your posts, Iron Flames, I'm still not quite sure what you're trying to say, lol. :erk:

But what concerns me about the whole story is not "how did the doctors treat her?" but rather, why does the media report unsubstantiated, sensationalized stories to start with, and then not at least give their corrected versions as much mention as their original stories?

Of course we know the answer -- ratings and sales. And it sickens me. Especially since so many Americans somehow justify going to war by accusing the rest of the world of trying to limit our "free" way of life. Bullshit. There are a lot "freer" countries than the U.S. ...but I digress.

i guess the point that can be made here is that the media always have a tendency to hype the truth. in this specific case, the reason was not some occult cover-up of hidden truths meant to have the world finally open its eyes, but the usual marketing strategy of media all over the world.

I agree completely.
 
Worth a laugh? Its a navy page, the navy SEALs were the ones who actualy got her out.

You guys are mighty paranoid if you think this story is a cover up. It is nothing more then the MEDIA fucking it up. THAT IS ALL.

If it was the government covering it up, you probably wouldn't know anything about it, as there was no reason for them to inform the media.

You can take personal shots at me all you want, all I'm saying is we have two stories here, and the only difference is in one we heroicly got her out by heavy ground fire outside, and a quick extraction of the POW. In the other, it makes us look like animals, not paying attention to them trying to drive her to us, the whole story was just to make the USA look like sloppy animals. So one story makes us look like heros, the other story makes us look like animals, but BOTH stories have the same outcome. Jessica Lynch flying to Germany and then to America. POW Home Safe.

So where is the cover-up?

It's exactly that, what you just described. The media/Pentagon (yes, they're in cahoots because of this embedded journalist program) are covering up just how sloppy and insensitive the American soldiers were. Perhaps it's not a deliberate conspiracy sort of cover-up, but it's definitely a matter of what sells papers and garners ratings. And stories that make the Americans look like assholes and the Iraqis look like heroes do not. So the media loved this story when it was about a poor, brave, little blonde girl. Now that it turns out that more credit is due to the Iraqis, rather than give it to them, the media sweeps the whole story under the carpet. It's a shame, that's all.
 
I don't give a rat's ass about the cover-up. I never gave a shit anyway. What pisses me off te most is that this girl (wounded or not) is paraded around like a fucking hero! What the hell did she do to deserve that title? SHE GOT CAUGHT BY THE ENEMY! And for only, what, a few weeks?

I bet Vietnam Veterans that survived YEARS of torture in Viet-Cong POW camps are fucking pissed. You want a hero, take a look at those guys. Oh yeah, I forgot we're suppose to pretend Vietnam never happened.
