WASHINGTON - The U.S. military on Monday disclosed a more than 50% jump in cases of traumatic brain injury stemming from Iran’s missile attack on a base in Iraq last month, with the number of service members diagnosed climbing to over 100.
Reuters was first to report earlier on Monday that there were over 100 cases of TBI, up from the 64 previously reported last month. Army General Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said last month that the service members suffering from traumatic brain injuries had been diagnosed with mild cases. He added that the diagnosis could change as time passed.Pentagon officials have repeatedly said there has been no effort to minimize or delay information on concussive injuries. But the disclosures following Tehran’s attack have renewed questions over the U.S.
Or, what America’s “Commander-in-Chief” calls ... headaches. AsshatPOTUSSY
This is war!
Mild and traumatic dont really belong in the same sentence. Nice way to spin it.
Trump says it’s just a little headache. No Worries!!!
Does Iran have military base in The United States? (NO) Then why are American Military in there country? Maybe if you stop asking for War it would be a little harder to find.
What the realdonaldtrump intimidating talk didn't stop the Iranians from injuring US soldiers? What a surprise. What happened to his line in the sand?
What We Know: Iran's Missile Strike Against The U.S. have learned how to land blows so painful it is Trump ,The first official..

I reckon we stop all wars. It's too dangerous.
L'armée américaine pas si inébranlable que ça !
درينة والحمزة شكد قذر الاعلام الغربي والعربي صدعتونة من بارحة ليوم بهلخبر ويومية ننطي شهداء بلعراق وهناك اغتيالات وثورة ضد زمرة مجرمة وانتم ساكتين العار عليكم
Which trump said nobody was hurt the lying bastard.
But POTUS said just a few with headaches. Lies again?
If we “cared” about our soldiers we wouldn’t have any.
What were they doing in a foreign, sovereign country? I see AmbJohnBolton is in the peak of health. It's time for the lied to US people to take back their country from the billionaires, warmongers, Israel fellaters and arms dealers.
Image all the undiagnosed traumatic brain injuries as a result of the tens of thousands of US bombs dropped on people from Sudan to Afghanistan over the last 30 years.
I would claim it too so I can get put of participating in an illegal occupation of a country that did nothing to us. I hope they get full benefits and more...
Simple solution leave Iraq and iran and Syria and Libya
Wishing quick recovery.
trump's headache soldiers!!!
Blame trump for that
It's called 'concussion'. It's not mere headche..it might be mild, moderate or severe..
What exactly are these injuries? Stop the lies please.
They knew what they signed up for
🤦🏿♂️
Are we supposed to feel sorry for US soldiers who have slaughtered over a million Iraqis since 2003
Most of so called veterans claim PTSD-related pensions and how cute to claim a headache as a brain injury for lifetime income ) Very creative!
Im sure one day when the truth is told...long after it can no longer hurt Trumps reelection, we will learn the true cost of the attack. Theres probably even dead....just descrined as more traumatic brain injuries (headaches) than the others.
Lord bless them
'Traumatic brain injuries' yet 76 of them already returned to duty.
justafewheadaches trumpsucks liesandmorelies
I was blown up by a creator mine as a jeep drove by, went up into the air and dropped into a track. Had so many problems with memory and so many other thing and yet the VA never told me I had a brain tumor until another small non VA Hospital found it, then OH ya we knew that.
Oh our divine leader said about 10 soldiers had headaches. So realDonaldTrump is a liar?
Pentagon should be TRANSPARENT and define 'traumatic brain injuries ' and show the hospitalisation of the soldiers! This is another COVER UP by the CORRUPT Administration.
And the president just call it mere headaches!
Unite states should response . Retaliation must take place in order to punish Iran’s government otherwise terrorists will keep attacking US facilities along with its citizens
Keep digging ! This is fine journalism. I'm sure some of the patsies you pay for this sort of drivel could dig up the odd ingrown toenail and toothache to add to the list of Iranian atrocities against your boys. FFS
Very sad but maybe the US shouldn't be assassinating foreign leaders.
Or by US
