US President Donald Trump posted a 38-second video on his Truth Social network this morning (Sunday), accompanied by uplifting music - and including strong hints at the liberation of the Iranian people from the murderous regime, a message the likes of which has not been presented in several weeks.
President Trump unusually stayed at the White House over the weekend, alongside reports of security consultations - and the continued arming of American forces in the Middle East.
The video combines calls for help from Iranian citizens alongside mass celebrations in the US with the country's flags.
The video opens with a viral image of a man kneeling in front of a yellow wall, on which is written: "President Trump Please Help." Trump himself is then seen walking through a dark, dramatic building alongside a security guard, under powerful lighting that emphasizes his image as a leader.
The second part of the video features a rapid sequence of scenes of celebrations and demonstrations in Washington and Boston. The footage shows a large crowd, mostly made up of Iranians and Persians in the diaspora, waving the flags of the United States, Israel, and the historic Iranian flag featuring the lion and sword symbol.
The video shows the attempted assassination of the president, and the message that God saved him to make the United States great again.
The video ends with the words: "You are watching history, so fasten your seatbelts" - against a backdrop of images of a cheering crowd.
Apparently, the emphasized use of the pre-revolutionary Iranian flag, alongside the flags of Israel and the United States, is a signal that Trump sees himself as someone who might save the Iranian people and lead to a revolution in power.
