ie she lied about,just like during the previous gulf war when the story about kuwaiti babies being killed when evil iraqi's where stealing the hospital equipment came at a crucial time for the un/coalition

"An Iraqi woman who was granted refugee status in the United States after telling the Washington Post and U.S. officials that she had been imprisoned, tortured and sexually assaulted in Iraq during the 1990s appears to have made false claims about her past, according to a fresh examination of her statements"

"Her testimony led to the arrest of several Iraqi security officials. Based on her testimony, U.S. officials took her into protective custody in Baghdad, and then to the United States"

"In recent interviews in Baghdad, Hanna's in-laws - including her husband's brother, uncle and cousin - all said the husband, Haitam Jamil Anwar, was alive and had left Iraq several months ago."
