- 🎯 Donald Trump posted a 57-second parody video on his Truth Social platform, featuring B-2 bombers and the slogan "Bomb Iran."
- 🎶 The video is a parody of The Beach Boys' 1965 song "Barbara Ann," with altered lyrics including "Wet to moas, going to throw some rocks" and "Tell the Ayatollah going to put you in a box."
- 💡 The song "Bomb Iran" has roots in a 1980 parody by Vince Vance and the Valiants, released during a period of high tension between the US and Iran following the embassy hostage crisis.
- 🎤 This is not the first time the song has been used in a political context; Republican candidate John McCain sang it at a rally in 2007.
