Iranian state media has released an AI-generated video showing the Statue of Liberty being destroyed by a missile. The one-minute clip ends with the slogan “One vengeance for all” and has been linked to Iranian state broadcaster IRIB. It was also shared by Russian state outlet RT.
The video references several moments in American history, including the treatment of Native Americans, the atomic bombings of Japan, the Vietnam War, and recent conflicts in the Middle East. The final sequence shows a missile in Iranian colors flying into New York Harbor and hitting the Statue of Liberty. In the video, the statue’s head has been replaced with that of Baal, a biblical false idol, and it is shown holding the Talmud.
