<<< . . . Another gem of Pentagon propaganda was the so-called 'rescue' of one of its female soldiers, the now famous Jessica. They made it look like a re-run of Entebbe. The helicopter landed, the troops rushed out and after creating a diversion rushed into Jessica's hospital room before carrying her off to safety.

During their press briefings they made no mention of the Iraqi doctor who had told them where she was.

It would probably have suited the US administration better had she been tortured and raped . . . >>>
