seems like she was just a victim of bad driving more then anything. and that the iraqis actually help save her life. wonder why they made anyone knowing what really happened sign nondisclosure agreements.

Hmmmm....sometimes I think you are trying too hard. You have to relax and let the fish come to you.

That's not a floater, it's a decomposed gerbil.

Citizens aren't Consumers.

Though both are fed a load of crap.

Post by: SOB on July 10, 2003, 03:43:28 PM: In both cases you're trying to garner a positive image of something you're trying to sell. On one hand you have Weaties, on the other you have the military and our war in Iraq. Both parties would be stupid not to try and market themselves and try to put a positive spin on things. Heros make people happy. :)

Post by: Syzygyone on July 10, 2003, 04:04:36 PM: Froggie,

I know you are just trying to pass along information, but I have to ask why. Are you trying to besmerch someone or something? Pvt. Lynch? The U.S. military? Maybe the media for creating the hype?

Regardless, the lunacy of any thought that this was a vehicle accident is foolishness. By that logic, I guess then if your tank gets hit by an RPG or bomb, and you don't get killed by the actual RPG itself, as oppposed to the molten slag flinging around inside your tank, or if it rolls over, and someone inside gets almost killed by breaking his neck, then it will be considered just a tank accident, or worse yet, friendly fire!. What if your aircraft's engines get shot out and your ejection system malfunctions and you manage to ride the craft down but are injured when you impact the earth. I guess that would be pilot error.

What really happened to Private Lynch?

Try this. She was an American solider, doing her job in a combat zone, under hostile fire, who, as a direct result of that fire, was severly injured and left to die behind enemy lines by her attackers who already had killed or were in the process of capturing and killing (murdering) many others of her unit. Some right thinking Iraqi citizen, (citizens were not the enemy) saw fit to take her to a hospital behind enemy lines where U.S. forces eventually found her after a tip by a local attorney (no lawyer jokes please) and from whence she was taken to begin a rather long and very arduously painful recovery.

Pvt. Lynch = Warrior. To her, with humble gratitude.
Anything else is , to paraphrase the Baron V, just rubbish!

:D
