DEVELOPING: The number of U.S. troops wounded in Jordan is now 34 with three killed , allegedly by Iran-backed militants. Below are 10 takeaways from the attack and why DC war mongers now want another war. 1- Three U.S. troops were killed, and at least 34 were injured in a militant drone attack in Jordan. 2- The attack occurred at a facility called Tower 22, housing about 350 U.S. troops near the borders with Syria and Iraq. 3- President Biden attributed the attack to groups supported by Iran. 4- This incident marked the first deadly military action against American service members since the rise in violence linked to the war in Gaza. 5- The U.S. will "hold those responsible to account at a time and in a manner of our choosing," President Biden said in a statement I shared earlier. 6- It is important noting that the Pentagon has conducted retaliatory strikes against Iranian proxies in Iraq, Syria, and Yemen amid a surge in attacks on deployed American personnel. 7- Despite such actions, Washington critics who often support the military industrial complex and wars, argue that these measures haven't deterred the groups responsible for the attacks. 8- Those war advocates are now saying that the attack on Tower 22 means U.S. countermeasures are not effective and there is a need for a more aggressive response. Among them is Senator Lindsey Graham. 9- Early reports say that the drone struck the base's living quarters, causing injuries ranging from cuts and bruises to brain trauma. 10- It remains unclear from which country the attack originated, and military commanders are investigating why U.S. air defenses failed to intercept the drone
