The Pentagon has at least 40,000 reasons to worry about the aftermath of a potential attack on Iran.

That’s the rough number of U.S. troops stationed in the Middle East, in bases from Bahrain to Syria and points in between. Not to mention U.S. citizens who live and work in the region.

They would be vulnerable to counterattacks that could involve Iranian ballistic missiles, drones or terrorism should the United States join Israel in its ongoing attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities.

(US moved out 13,000 military personnel in anticipation of Iranian counter attacks.)
