The official White House account on the X platform posted a short animated video in which the strikes on Iran are depicted through a bowling metaphor. The 34-second clip shows Iranian officials in the form of bowling pins being knocked down by an American ball decorated with US flags.

The video ends with footage of actual missile strikes and the word "STRIKE." This is just one in a series of recent White House materials combining real footage of strikes on Iranian targets with elements borrowed from films, video games and popular media culture.

Such content is part of "Operation Wrath of God," with which US officials claim to be targeting the destruction of Iran's missile arsenal and naval capabilities, with the aim of preventing the development of nuclear weapons.
