Iranian state-controlled media on Sunday reportedly released a propaganda video showing an Iranian attack destroying the U.S. Capitol building and Iran conquering Jerusalem, Israel’s capital.
The Washington Free Beacon first reported news of the video.
A 12-second clip of the video opens with footage of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps marching before cutting to a video of a missile being launched.
It then transitions into a fake video showing the U.S. Capitol building burning and crumbling before finally cutting to footage of Iranian troops standing on the hills overlooking Temple Mount in Jerusalem.
Today pre-Khamenei talk,Iran state TV aired this clip depicting an IRGC attack on #Congress
Yes, it’s propaganda. But it shows the anti-US ideology of #IRGC,which is rising in power
Should the #US give #Iran billions in sanctions relief before addressing the challenge of IRGC? pic.twitter.com/Yp4z4igwWL— Kasra Aarabi (کسری اعرابی) (@KasraAarabi) May 2, 2021
In the background, a singer chants in Farsi, “The palace of oppression [referring to the U.S. Congress] was destroyed by the Alavi [Imam Ali’s] IRGC, and the good news of the liberation of Quds [Jerusalem] arrives from Iran,” according to a translation by Tony Blair Institute analyst Kasra Aarabi.
