Australia appears in Iranian LEGO propaganda video: ‘We won’t join’ shown in front of Aussie flags

The Australian government’s refusal to join the US-led naval blockade of the Strait of Hormuz is being highlighted in the latest viral Iranian propaganda video featuring LEGO characters.
Over recent days, Iranian-linked outlet Explosive News has produced numerous comical clips mocking US President Donald Trump and the US military operation, which have generated millions of views online through social media.
In a recently released instalment LEGO characters are featured in front of Australian flags and a document stating “We will not join” along with a narrator declaring: “the gavel is falling, the world is learning”.
According to the BBC, a representative of Explosive Media has recently admitted that the regime in Tehran is a “customer” after earlier insisting it was “totally independent”.
The video, posted on YouTube, is synced to a song, presumably also created by AI, which includes lines like “Bibi on trial” and China is watching.
