Trump posts ‘Bomb Iran’ parody song with video of bombers

US President Donald Trump posts the parody song “Bomb Iran,” over a video montage of B-2 bombers, on the Truth Social platform.

The 1980 song by Vince Vance & the Valiants is a parody of “Barbara Ann,” a 1962 song by the Regents.

The song includes lyrics such as, “Ol’ Uncle Sam’s getting pretty hot, time to turn Iran into a parking lot.”

Several versions of the song were first released after the Iran hostage crisis in 1979.

The track came to prominence again when US Senator John McCain drew criticism for quoting the lyrics during his run for the presidency in 2007.

Trump’s video is not the only offbeat governmental response to the Israel-Iran conflict today.

Iranian state TV aired a Lego animation depicting the conflict with Israel, according to the Middle East Media Research Institute.

The video shows Lego characters rallying around the Iranian flag, firing missiles, and fleeing from explosions in Israel.

A Lego Trump is seen in the video talking on the phone with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, while eating a cheeseburger.

A message in Hebrew at the video says, “We control the game.”

The video is set to the theme music of the Israeli TV thriller “Tehran.”

Iran’s Channel 3 aired the video earlier today, MEMRI says.
