Re: Latest on Jessica Lynch

Interesting link, Michael. There was always something about the Lynch story, when it first came out, that rubbed me the wrong way; just something a little too "propagandistic" about it. Typical. Thanks, Darian Rachal

Told of the allegation through an interpreter, nurse Shinah wells up with tears. Gathering herself, she responds quietly: "This is a lie. But why ask me? Why don't you ask Jessica what kind of treatment she received?"

She has amnesia now. Can't remember a bloody thing.

"Lynch suffered a head wound, spinal injury and fractures to her right arm, both legs and her right foot and ankle. She is being treated at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington"

Yup - sounds like she fell out of the jeep to me...

"Physically, sources say Lynch appears to have been beaten up pretty badly and is still in immense pain"

Of course, if I were an Iraqi nurse or doctor, I'd tell everyone I brought her cookies, too!

"The bodies of nine members of the 507th were found during Lynch's rescue."

I bet THEY didn't get any cookies

Methinks the Toronto Star is of the same ilk as Peter Jennings.
