...the fact is that when the Iraqi specifically came to her town to meet her..

This is the part that I don't think is factual. I believe he was invited to the library to promote his book by a group called "Friends of Jessica Lynch."

No that is true that she had no time for him and WHY I find her so offensive. By now most people know what went on under Saadam's reign. This Iraqi lawyer would have begged for death before he died had he been caught. I am profoundly disturbed that she is so ungrateful and so hypocritical.

I heard no complaints about the movie CBS made about her. Granted it was unauthorized. Yet she is put out over the Pentagon filming her rescue. Many recuses and situations are filmed during war. Hers is one of many. Her rescue didn't "hype" anything about this war. Those that didn't agree with the war still disagreed.
