Just a question, but the rest of her unit aside, what the hell did the Iraqi's do to mistreat Jessica Lynch?

Now I understand that some of the other people in her unit where executed or something, and they arenet really sure what happened, and yes that would be war crimes.

What i dont get is, what war crime was committed agains Jessica Lynch specifically?

From what I can tell, she was wounded in legitimate combat, and then promptly transfered to a hospital, as would be the proper thing to do. From the sounds of her injuries,(gunshot and stab wounds, broken bones) it sounds to me like the Iraqis did a great deal to save her life by putting her in a hospital, as she would have surely bled to death had they taken the time to torture and rape her first.

So why have I heard screaming about war crimes in her case?
