Journalist Catherine Herridge is reporting that newly leaked military memos reveal United States military members were exposed to several toxic agents, which include radioactive materials, after Iran launched a ballistic missile attack on their base in January 2020. Along with this, Herridge is also reporting that a retired Army JAG is claiming that courts and the Justice Department have now “sided with Iran,” and that service members injured in the attack have been blocked from suing Iran. read more
You know damned well they were exposed to toxic chemicals from an attack by the Iranians and it will be covered up as was the use of Agent Orange in Vietnam to defoliate the jungles. I had a cousin who died from cancer nearly 50 years later after serving with the Army during the Vietnam War in the late 60’s. Never expect the friggin CIA ever to tell the truth.
Given you our government lied about WMD in Iraq, lied about Syrian chemical weapons usage, lied about some Havana death-ray syndrome and is currently passing along Ukrainian lies about Russian chemical weapons usage, I cannot work up much outrage about these current radiation allegations about Iran.
And while I am very sorry that our trip-wire troops in other countries are allegedly getting shell-shocked by Iranian weapons, there is a simple solution to that problem: Get our troops the hell out of there.
Reagan had the good sense to pull our Marines out of Lebanon after the infamous barracks bombing, but I see no sign of that sort of wisdom in BidenHarris or the Neocon Pentagon.
Hey, I just found out from the VA that I was exposed to Agent Orange while I was at the Naval Air Station on Guam in the late 60’s. So, I filed the paperwork but the current administration pulled the paperwork processors off of VA claims and put them on helping westbacks. Nothing surprises me.
I used to joke that I was in the Navy – I got paper cuts. Now the Agent Orange explains a lot.
