Iran Uses Lego Video in PR War Against the US

The cartoon shows massive Iranian retaliation against U.S. and Israeli military forces following a lethal strike on the Minab girls’ school

Iranian media have shared a Lego-themed video promoting Tehran’s alleged retaliation against the U.S. and Israel, depicting American and Israeli leaders in a state of panic.

The animation, called ‘Narrative of Victory,’ was widely shared online on Sunday. It opens with a cartoonish version of U.S. President Donald Trump – accompanied by the Devil – reading the Jeffrey Epstein files.

The U.S. president is then shown losing control and ordering strikes on Iran, seemingly implying the attack was meant to distract from a domestic scandal involving the late sex offender’s ties to American elites.

The video next depicts an attack on an Iranian girls’ school in Minab that killed over 170 people, with a vengeful Iranian soldier examining the ruins and preparing for retaliation. Tehran has blamed Israel and the U.S. for the attack, while Trump has claimed Iran itself caused the destruction.

The clip goes on to show waves of Iranian missile and drone strikes, including attacks on a UK airbase in Cyprus, multiple targets in Israel, and sites across the Gulf region. As devastation spreads, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is seen fleeing, oil traders panic, and Iranian drones destroy a U.S. aircraft carrier. One final scene shows a U.S. military transport plane unloading a coffin draped in the American flag.

The video’s release came days after the White House posted its own PR clip on X. That clip opened with a Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas meme featuring protagonist CJ saying “Ah sh*t, here we go again,” before cutting to footage of U.S. strikes on Iran – each hit overlaid with the game’s “wasted” screen that appears when the character dies.

This is not the first time Iranian media have used Lego-style animations in their messaging. In June 2025, during the 12-day war with Israel and the U.S., a similar video portrayed Tehran’s response to strikes on the Isfahan nuclear facility as a victory.

That clip showed Trump and Netanyahu standing beside a devil figure before Iranian missiles hit Israeli targets, ending with the line: “We are the ones who control the game.”
