Multiple U.S. service members were injured in Iraq over the weekend after Iranian-backed terrorist groups fired a large number of missiles at a base.

“At approximately 6:30 p.m. (Baghdad time) time Jan. 20, multiple ballistic missiles and rockets were launched by Iranian-backed militants in Western Iraq targeting al-Assad Airbase,” U.S. Central Command said in a statement. “Most of the missiles were intercepted by the base’s air defense systems while others impacted on the base.”

Officials began conducting damage assessments shortly after the attack, and “a number of U.S. personnel are undergoing evaluation for traumatic brain injuries,” the statement added.

Fox News reported at least two U.S. soldiers suffered traumatic brain injuries.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

As usual our troops are stationed in these Arab nations as little more than cannon fodder. :soangry:
