"Why would the author of her book lie about this?"

Because he has a financial interest in the number of books that sell.

Yes, but he says that her medical records clearly show evidence of anal rape. I would presume Jessica Lynch has seen or discussed her own medical records with her doctors and would dispute this if the author was making it up. She says she has no memories from about 3 hours after the ambush and has no memory of a rape. Yet she doesn't deny it happened, as I certainly would if my medical records showed no such thing. When it was brought up in her interview with Diane Sawyer, Jessica simply said something like "I don't like to think about that" and moved on. If it didn't happen, I'd think she'd say so.

I don't understand the interest so many seem to have in claiming it didn't happen.
