What was it about a critically wounded
American Soldier that was sexually appealing
to the Iraqi Bastards that assaulted her?
A young girl in terrible pain, agony
and Iraqi Bastards, just had to assault her?!

Perhaps the USA Military should just pull out
ALL of our troops and just Hiroshima your ass.

Jessica was just 19 years old.
A lot of people need to answer for this
and its not just the Bastard, Scumbags,
may their dicks fall off and rot, that need
to answer for this.

What the hell was a 19 year old girl doing
in Iraq, to begin with?

But don't think that excuses the monsters that did this,
they should be shown the same mercy they showed
Jessica Lynch.

"The records do not tell whether her
captors assaulted her almost lifeless,
broken body after she was lifted from the wreckage,
or if they assaulted her and then broke her bones
into splinters until she was almost dead," Bragg continues.

Jessica Lynch was raped by captors, book says
Associated Press

NEW YORK --

The authorized biography of former prisoner of war
Pfc. Jessica Lynch reportedly says she was raped by
her Iraqi captors.

A spokeswoman for Lynch's family,
while not directly confirming the report,
said today it was unfortunate attention
was being focused on one incident.

"The complete story of her capture
is a very painful one for Jessica,"

spokeswoman Aly Goodwin Gregg said.

"However, she felt it was important to tell her
story so that people fully understand the atrocities
of war.

But her story is more than just one incident."

"I am a Soldier, Too:
The Jessica Lynch Story"
is being released by Knopf publishing Tuesday,
which is Veterans Day. Reporter Rick Bragg,
who wrote the book, tells Lynch's story.

Medical records cited in the book indicate that she was raped,
the Daily News of New York said. Officials have said Lynch
has no memory of her ordeal.

"Jessi lost three hours.

She lost them in the snapping bones,
in the crash of the Humvee,
in the torment her enemies inflicted
on her after she was pulled from it,"

writes Bragg,

according to a report in today's Daily News,
which obtained a copy of the book.

"The records do not tell whether her
captors assaulted her almost lifeless,
broken body after she was lifted from the wreckage,
or if they assaulted her and then broke her bones
into splinters until she was almost dead," Bragg continues.

Separately, ABC's "Good Morning America"

host Diane Sawyer confirmed today on
the air that the book says Lynch was raped.

"The book does indeed cite some intelligence
reports that she was treated brutally and a
medical record which says, in the book,
that she was a victim of a sodomizing rape," Sawyer said.

"I talked to both her and her parents about this,
and asked them about the decision to put it in the book,
and they told me that it was a decision to tell the reality,
not selective parts of a story of going to war," Sawyer said.

Knopf spokesman Paul Bogaards
would not elaborate on the reports,
telling The Associated Press that it was
"just one chapter in a vivid story of a soldier's life."

Bragg declined to comment to the AP.

Sawyer's interview with Lynch will air
Tuesday in a special edition of ABC's "Primetime."

Sawyer also addressed reports that Lynch's
book casts doubt on the claim of an Iraqi lawyer,
Muhammad al-Rehaief, that he helped U.S. Marines rescue Lynch.

"She says that he may indeed have helped her," Sawyer said.

"If he did, she's grateful,
but she simply does not remember him and
she remembers most everybody that she
spent time with during her hospital captivity."

Lynch, 20, was shipped to Kuwait in January
with the 507th Maintenance Company.

She was captured March 23 after her convoy
was ambushed in the southern Iraqi city of Nasiriyah.

She was rescued from an Iraqi hospital April 1 by U.S. forces.

She plans to marry Army Sgt. Ruben Contreras in June.

Bragg has written several books,
including the memoir "All Over but the Shoutin',"
and won the Pulitzer Prize for feature writing in
1996 while at The New York Times.

He resigned from the Times in May after the
newspaper suspended him over a story that
carried his byline but was reported largely by a freelancer.

At a similar time, it appears there were Iraqi doctors and others who
risked their lives to save hers. There are good people and there are
evil people everywhere. Consider the Green River Killer who has now
admitted, basically, that he murdered at least 48 women, generally
prostitutes, because he didn't want to have to pay them for sex. He even
later would return to their dead bodies and rape the corpses.

You'll notice that I've said that women should not be in combat since
the whole idea was brought up. The woman who was captured in the 1991
Gulf War in similar circumstances was also raped. There is almost a 100%
chance that a woman captured in war, by the people who we tend to get
into wars with, will be raped.

Do you realize that the Saddam regime is said by international human
rights organizations to have kidnapped, tortured and murdered hundreds
of thousands of people? Do you realize that Saddam would use the rape of
wives and daughters to get husbands and fathers to confess to being
opposed to Saddam? Literally millions of people have died under the
brutal repression of Saddam. Whole ethnic groups of people including the
Marsh Arabs have been virtually wiped out by Saddam. The Middle East
must be changed from the outside in and the inside out for the sake of
the people of the Middle East because Saddam's behaviour, while extreme,
is not the only that is vile and disturbing. And it is this vile and
disturbing repression that fuels the hatred and blame that gets attached
by the terrorists to the United States.

rape is primarily about power, not about sex.

try getting a little scientific background.

she may not have had much, if any "sexaul appeal" to her rapists (assuming
she was raped for the sake of argument).

even a cursory study of rape incidents will confirm that rapists have often
raped subjects that would not otherwise be sexually appealing to them in
"normal" circumstances.

Yes, you are right, but right now, I just don't feel like focusing
on 'good' Iraqis.
I just have this terrible picture in my mind, this is far too emotional.

He was obviously very, very sick, but he will be going to
prison for the rest of his days, he will die in prison.
How he got away with it for so long, is the unbelievable part
of that story.
Something horrible must have happened to him,
in his childhood, when he was growing up,
perhaps his mother abandoned him, some terrible unresolved
psyhic injury, trauma.
That doesn't begin to excuse him and he will be punished.
Jessica Lynch's perpertrators have not been caught,
they are still out there, happy about what they did.
Jessica Lynch is really a child, they should be killed.
Sounds harsh, but they had no mercy, none whatsoever.
How would you like to be her Dad, knowing what
happened to your child?

Jessica was badly injured a HUMVEE had tilted on her,
for pete's sake. What condition could that child h ave been in?
This is beyond belief, there is no understanding of a situation like this.
Of course, Jessica has all the hopes and dreams of any young lady,
she wants to be a wife and mother.
But not even years of therapy can help someone overcome this.
But she has no memory, perhaps that is a good thing.

Okay, Okay, but why were we sending Saddam Hussein, weapons and cash,
under both the Reagan and Bush I administrations, when we knew what he was
like?
Why did our CIA put the Baath party in power?
Some many questions, so few legitimate answers.

But what happened to Jessica must be resolved,
that cannot be allowed to stand, not like that.
If our government, our USA, American governmet has any respect,
they will make it their business to hunt down the perpertrators of
the assault on Jessica Lynch.
One of the doctors that helped is here, in the USA, fine,
but the ones that hurt her so terribly, where are they?
