BREAKING: I have obtained military records that suggest Iran’s January 2020 ballistic missile attack on al-Asad Air Base targeted US troops with numerous toxic agents, including radiation. Six years after the attack, US service members that were involved are now battling traumatic brain injuries and emerging cancers they blame on the toxic fallout.
