Gang,
Check this out!
I knew the networks were wrangling with each other over the rights to Jessica's "story." NEVER MIND THAT THE STORY OF HER CAPTURE AND RESCUE IS A WORK OF COMPLETE FICTION! That's not going to stop the State Department propaganda machine from producing the TV movie about Jessica's "rescue" that has turned out to be completely debunked, bogus, and swept under the rug.
Captain Mike, actor in Hollywood, receives casting notices each day, about projects going on here in Hollywood. I just saw this today, while mailing out my headshots.
Have you noticed how Jessica has simply disappeared? She's not talking about her experience. She's been silenced. So they then said she has "amnesia." That way she can't debunk the fictional story put forth by the Pentagon. Same for her parents. They've actually been threatened to NOT TALK about it. And one of the guys in charge of her rescue just died suddenly in a bizarre solo car crash.
Despite the propaganda, if you were following DU's coverage, you'd know that Jessica was NOT SHOT, NOT STABBED, NEVER FIRED A WEAPON, was treated KINDLY in the Iraqi hospital, indeed better than the Iraqi patients, was given her own room, and one of the doctors even tried to bring her back to a US checkpoint but turned back when troops fired on his ambulance! When US Special Forces "rescued" her, there were NO Iraqi soldiers there, they met no resistance, and actually hung around for about four hours. This was no daring "rescue" or "grab" operation. She was not a POW!
Check out the particulars below and the character descriptions!
Like Captain Mike says, "You can't make this shit up!" Well, they're going to anyway...
