A sophisticated AI-generated video styled as a Lego animation has surfaced on social media, marking a new phase in the digital information conflict accompanying the 2026 Iran war.
The video, titled “ONE VENGEANCE FOR ALL,” a nearly two-minute clip which features toy-like minifigures overseeing the destruction of Western institutions.
Produced by Iranian state-linked media outlets under the “Explosive News” watermark, the video uses the playful aesthetic of plastic building blocks to depict high-stakes military strikes.
The animation shows Lego-style Iranian missiles launching toward digital recreations of the White House and the United Nations Headquarters.
The narrative of the video positions the Islamic Republic as a global avenger for various grievances.
Scenes include a minifigure of Malcolm X and references to "the children of Epstein Island," alongside messages regarding military actions in Iraq and the ongoing conflict in Gaza.
A diverse group of Lego characters, including figures representing Native Americans, African nations, and Palestinian activists, are shown standing together under an Iranian flag.
This imagery suggests a broad anti-Western coalition, framing the current military hostilities as a civilizational struggle.
This digital campaign follows the commencement of U.S. and Israeli airstrikes on Iranian targets on February 28, 2026.
The conflict, which saw the death of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in its early stages, has increasingly moved into the realm of psychological operations.
Under the administration of President Donald Trump, the United States has faced a barrage of digital propaganda aimed at demoralizing domestic audiences and rallying international support for the "Axis of Resistance."
Critics describe the Lego-themed content as an attempt to sanitize and meme-ify the destruction of American symbols.
However, supporters of the Iranian narrative argue the video effectively highlights historical and contemporary grievances against Western foreign policy.
The viral spread of the video highlights the role of domestic influencers in circulating foreign state messaging.
By utilizing AI-generated tools, state actors can now produce high-quality, shareable content at a fraction of the cost of traditional media.
