Political analysts and observers were outraged on Thursday after the White House posted its most recent "propaganda" video about the Iran war.
The White House published a montage of strikes against Iranian targets interspersed with clips from popular action movies and television shows. The video was captioned, "JUSTICE THE AMERICAN WAY," on X.
It was posted at a time when the Trump administration is facing growing scrutiny for its actions in Iran. On Thursday, the New York Times published an investigation determining that the U.S. had bombed a girls's chool in Iran and killed 175 civilians in the process. A bipartisan coalition of lawmakers is also challenging the president's reasons for conducting the bombing campaign in the first place.
Political analysts and observers shared their reactions on social media.
"A deep embarrassment to us all," The Tennessee Holler posted on X.
"The entire Trump Cabinet is made up of people play acting actual leaders and now they do videos confirming it," political commentator Neera Tanden posted on X.
"Confirming all suspicions of propaganda," journalist Natali Morris posted on X.
"This is a f------ disgrace," Ron Filipkowski, editor-in-chief of MeidasTouch, posted on X.
"There is something in this that seems a poor reflection on people losing their children, sisters, and brothers. They should hire adults," physician David Bell posted on X.
