A special Purim episode of the Israeli satire show Eretz Nehederet featured exaggerated portrayals of United States President Donald Trump and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, turning the ongoing war with Iran into a mock action film franchise titled Epic Fury, Revenge of Trump. The characters boasted about the scale of the conflict, joked about its duration, and unveiled spoof movie posters depicting themselves as action heroes in increasingly absurd sequels.

The sketches escalated from threats against Iran to imaginary global and even intergalactic wars, complete with dramatic trailers and over-the-top slogans. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was also lampooned in a surreal artificial intelligence generated segment, where shifting war goals were tied to political survival and consumer technology upgrade cycles.

In another segment, a fictional interview in hell featured Iran's former supreme leader alongside slain militant leaders, who humorously argued over their failures before breaking into a parody song. The show mixed sharp political satire with commentary on wartime absurdities, including media coverage mishaps and life in bomb shelters, offering viewers comic relief amid ongoing tensions.
