Trump posts video with ‘Bomb Iran' song amid ceasefire
President Trump posted a new video on Truth Social featuring a compilation of videos of B-2 stealth fighter jets dropping bombs along with the 1980 song 'Bomb Iran' by Vince Vance & the Valiants.
The song, a parody of the 1961 song 'Barbara Ann' by the Regents, plays over a video of various B-2 stealth fighter jets, which were used to drop 14 GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator (MOP) bombs, or 'bunker busters,' in Iran.
The jets were specifically used on the Fordow Fuel Enrichment plant and the Natanz Enrichment Complex, key nuclear sites in Iran. The U.S. also hit Iran's Isfahan nuclear site.
The song continues with the lyrics, 'Went to a mosque, gonna throw some rocks, tell the Ayatollah, 'Gonna put you in a box!' Bomb Iran.'
The Hill has reached out to the White House for comment.
Trump posted the video on Truth Social Tuesday night amid rising tensions between Iran, Israel and the U.S. after U.S. military strikes on three Iranian nuclear facilities this past weekend.
The video is just the latest post from the president on the rising conflict in the Middle East, even singling out Israel in a rare move, advising them against dropping more bombs in a Truth Social post.
Around the same time, Trump came down on the Iranians and Israelis earlier in the day at the White House, voicing his displeasure at continued fighting between the two adversaries.
'We basically — we have two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they don't know what the f‑‑‑ they're doing,' Trump told reporters at the White House earlier Tuesday.
While Trump hailed the strikes against the nuclear facilities as a success, an early intelligence assessment reportedly found that Tehran's nuclear program was set back by only months.
