Kevin and Sarah discuss – and with sources, dismantle – the state-scripted story of the capture and rescue of Private First Class Jessica Lynch during the invasion of Iraq. A manipulation of one woman's trauma to advance the cause of an unjust war, it is one of the most laser-focused and uniquely cruel pieces of propaganda in the Global War on Terror, and modern American history.

This episode contains descriptions of sexual violence.
