What evidence do you have that she was "tortured"?

Exactly, like honesty, truth and respecting American citizens and their intelligence enough not to spread laughable disinformation to them.

Defending my freedom? Betters and Defenders? The Iraqi nation has not and most likely never will pose any threat to my freedom. Sending American troops over to "liberate" a Third world country from it's regime and set up shop there has nothing to do with my freedom.

[i]During the first Gulf War, both of the two American female POW's whom the insidious Iraqi's captured, were repeatedly beaten and raped over the course of their captivity... and so I will say that I think that anyone who poo-poo's or scoffs at Jessica Lynch's recent experiences in tortured captivity, are either purblind, inexperienced fools, or craven, politically-partisan derelicts...
I don't know about anything captured female soliders in the first Gulf war but if they were tortured and raped, then my heart goes out to them. But there is no evidence that Jessica Lynch was in any way "tortured" by her captors.
