Why is Jessica Lynch a hero?
Someone want to explain this to me?
They get attacked, she goes to fire her weapon and she gets a stoppage. So instead of carrying out her Immediate Actions, she puts her rifle down and prays, gets captured, raped/beaten as a POW and then gets rescued. I thought in order to be a hero you had to DO SOMETHING. She had no choice in what happened to her. Ayone could go there, lie down and pray, get captured and then get rescued. Doesn't seem too hard to me. Anyway, I don't know why they would send a "soldier" to Iraq who can't carry out simple IA's to fix a stoppage. I want to hear about somebody who killed 50 Iraqi's or someone who carried a wounded soldier or something like that. But I guess this is just a bunch of propaganda, right? |
shes not a hero,the american media fucking creamed their pants when they found out when she was a GIRL and started spamming their hero crap
what about all the other members of her unit who died, they're not heros? |
personally i think everyone is a hero if they go to war.
But to take her, and single her out is stupid. |
It's the stupiest thing I've ever heard her. Fuck her movie, and fuck the media.
|
Amen Animal , Amen.
|
she's the stupiedst bitch ever. WE shoulda left her there then flip her the bird from the chopper.
|
Thats unpatriotic airbornebutters. Leaving a soldier who is willing enough to die for her country, and jusst leave them. Thats cold.
|
she isnt a hero, its just thet the media and military overdramatized what went on. they are trying to find sensationalism in this war, and every story they can find to keep you watching the news.
|
shes an attractive female soldier...if you can think of a better plot for a movie/book...im all ears...its all about money, thats why were capitolists
|
The movie for the most part was about the Iraqi Lawyer that told the US Army about her.
The media attention was given to her only because shes an attractive female soldier like Guarnere said. |
attractive? eh. shes ok, i bet its mostly because she was a girl. in the interview with diane sawyer, she said she didnt go down fighting, she passed out in the humvee accident.
|
You people are so harsh. She's more of a hero then any of you are. And I think we all she is getting so much attention because she is a woman, because forever women have not been allowed to fight, and most of them don't want and don't have what it takes. Did she perform as well as most men would do in her situation, no, but just 10 years ago she couldn't have even been there. She exceeded peoples expectations and went into battle for our nation and got caught. Wtf have you done? Now
Now the people who were killed in 9/11 simply because they went to work, they weren't heros like the media portrayed (except of course the firefighters and rescue workers and what not). And those stupid coalminers who do a sucky job and get trapped in their own mine for a few days, they're not heros. |
The fucking T.V movie was total bullshit. I bet the laywer guy was walking down the street saw an Amercian vehicle, waved them down. Told them about the Girl in the hosptial, and they went and "rescued" her.
They made the movie about her because she is an attractive, (white) female. I don't see no movie about that other female supply clerk. (The hispanic one with like 2 kids...over weight one.) Or any other prisoners. I didn't even see an interview on the news with anyone them. [img]http://www.jessica-lynch.com/images/mn_pows1.jpg[/img] I hate how Jessica Lynch is made out to be this Amercian Hero. It's so fucking stupid- pisses me off. |
My wifes Air Force and I can say this much at least. She will not be praying in the fire fight baby. It will be a case of empty the clip and reload.
Its not that I have no respect for the woman because Im ex Army. I know what it takes to be there in first place , but these guys are right. Way to much media for a single POW who was only there because she didnt fight back. |
I agree that the media shouldn't be making a big deal... but some of these guys sound like they're mad at her. props to you and your wife zenmaster

Well, first off the girl is (I believe) 19 years old. So the news already knows this will appeal to all people because she is young.
Second, she's a female in the armed forces. If it was a male who went through the same predicament, it would get as much media attention, but not the same praise. Because women are, in modern society, considered to be less likely to fight in a war than a man would, it appealed to people more. Third, people heard of the torture she went through having her bones broke, and naturally felt sorrow for her. I personally don't see her as a "hero". She lived through torture of a foreign enemy, and was able to be brought back to US soil in one peace, but I think her deserving title would be a "survivor". Rambo is a hero. |
she was never raped

any one of us could throw down our gun & lie on the ground. |
S.P.O.R.T.S.
Or even easier... P.O.R.T.S. |
the sad thing is the movie will probably be like Chuck Norris' Delta Force, even though no such cool action really happened rolleyes:
|
I think you need to get the facts straight before you get all bent out of shape and say she should die etc...
1st off like many already said this was the media and government that played up this rescue. Jessica herself said that it has been overdramatized and she feels used that they taped the entire thing to use as PR. She NEVER admits to going down fighting and gives all the credit to her squad mates. She herself says that she is not a hero and that she will not take credit for something that did not happen to her. she was never shot, stabbed, raped or beaten. all of her injuries occured from the vehicle crash. There were no Iraqis in the hospital when she was rescued only hospital workers who were treating her. read about her interview here http://www.cnn.com/2003/US/11/07/lynch. ... index.html That being said anyone who serves in the military and goes to war is a hero in my eyes more than many of us will ever be so next time you feel like making some dumbass comments take a moment from bitching about how your mom hates you and your life is horrible and get to know the facts |

Jessica Lynch is a hero just for the sole fact that she was in Iraq during the conflict! She has more (figurative) balls than me, that's for fucking well sure.

The movie sucked. I know they were on a limited budget but gah. The girl who played Lynch couldn't act at all. Along with the rest of the females in that movie with the exception of that lawyer's wife

i can't say what i would do because ive never been in that position, but u figure if she had fought back maybe they would have just killed her, who knows? |
thats because there all form porno movies they didnt have the money to hire real actors. that and no self-respecting actor would ever be a part of poorly done millitary propaganda to try and hype a war that practly no one wanted in the first place
|
hold the phone
you're telling me she put her rifle down and prayed?! Jesus christ she shouldnt be a hero, the media is blowing thier load about this shit |
Because she was in the wrong place at the wrong time and she looks like an all American kind of girl, it also makes a good if not tacky story to raise the moral of the troops. IMHO I think it's hilarious that some people are actually taken in and believe this crap.
I also think it's an insult to those service personnel who have fought and died in this war to be overshadowed by some blonde haired, large breasted bimbo. Then again, she didn't ask to become a symbol of the cowboys war so if she makes a lot of $ out of this desperate attempt at propoganda by a bemused press then good for her. |
Captialism at it's finist

calmdown: I think your taking this a little too far. I personally don't feel that she is what I think of a hero to be. One the other hand, she didn't ask for all that too happen to her. Show a little more fuckin respect, it's not like she is the enemy. stupid: |
