Donald Trump has shared a horrifically insensitive video about bombing Iran that glorifies violence and anti-Muslim acts.
Despite bragging about a ceasefire between Israel and Iran, the president posted a juvenile “Bomb Iran” music video set to the tune of Barbara Ann by the Beach Boys.

The president managed to insult both gay people and women while berating the media for questioning his claims about his success in Iran.
The song originally surfaced in 1980 in response to the Iranian hostage crisis. While several versions exist, the most popular is by Vince Vance & the Valiants, which is the one Trump posted.
It’s clear by posting it that Donald Trump not only supports its content, but also that he has a dangerously callous attitude toward entangling the United States in a foreign war.
Lyrics in the song include, “Went to a mosque. Gonna throw some rocks” and “time to turn Iran into a parking lot,” communicating a lack of concern for civilian deaths.

Many on social media slammed the president for posting something so insensitive and uncouth. Others pointed out the irony of the GOP’s campaign for Trump to win a Nobel Peace Prize.
This would be gross coming from a 12 year-old. But from a "President" ? Simply classless.
