You said — “They did not lie or exaggerate - it was simply a case of mistaken identification.”

The article quoted Jessica Lynch — “Jessica Lynch, now 23, said she was giving testimony “to set the record straight”.”

So, why is it — that it requires *her* to set the record straight and the U.S. Military can’t do it? If they had set it straight already — then why is she even bothering with this?

Obviously something does not smell right at all, and I’m starting to look at the bottom of my shoes...

Because she's a publicity hound? Because there are a lot of people who assign undue amounts of credibility to low-ranking personnel in the military? Everyone's got an opinion. But not all opinions are equally valid. Or supported by the facts.
