What #happened to the #people #injured in the #Iranian #missile #strike?

 
Trump would have you believe there were no consequences to his attack on Iran. Tell that to the soldiers who suffered traumatic brain injuries.

Dear friends,
It feels like entire epochs have passed since Trump surprised the world by killing an Iranian general, and Iran responded by launching missiles are U.S. military bases in Iraq. Tensions have deescalated enough in the last eight weeks that most of us can forget it even happened.
But more than 30 U.S. service members can't forget: they suffered traumatic brain injuries during Iran's counter attack and have been getting treatment in Germany and the United States. Yet, Trump had the gall to paper over this with a tweet declaring "All is well!" Mr. President, for too many soldiers, all is not well.
Here's the real truth: we are lucky that Trump's rash attack didn't get any U.S. soldiers killed. But a lack of body bags isn't the same thing as "so far, so good." Traumatic brain injuries are life-changing. They can damage cognitive function, alter personalities, cause debilitating headaches and more. Dismissing these soldiers' injuries is dismissing their sacrifice and their humanity.
Trump treats service members like they're pieces in the board game Risk. He attacks as if there are not real, human costs to his actions as commander in chief.
We may not be able to change Trump, but we can demand that lawmakers use their oversight power to keep his worst impulses in check.
Thank you,

P.S. We won't forget the men and women who suffered traumatic brain injuries when Iran retaliated against Trump's drone strike. Sign the petition to demand Congress look into Trump's dismissal and cover up of their injuries.
