Re: Saving Private Lynch: Take 2, by Robert Scheer
I'm not sure how many of you were caught up in the notoriety of the Iraqi Information minister, who "tripled guaranteed" there were no infidels in Baghdad, and that the Iraqis had the Americans "surrounded in their tanks". The list goes on and on.
But when you look at the things our media was publishing about the death defying rescue of private Lynch, you begin to realize just how level the playing field of propaganda really is. According to Robert Scheer of the LA Times, what was reported as Americans fighting their way into a hospital against hostile Iraqi gunfire, has actually turned out to more of a scenario where doctors were trying to return her to us peacefully in an ambulance, but were unaccountably beaten back by US gun fire. What next? (...For some reason, you need to open the above link in a new window for it to allow you to read it without paying)
