Original review summary

The video is from 9 May 2018, not the June 2025 Israel-Iran conflict. It shows lawmakers burning a placard resembling the U.S. flag in protest after the U.S. withdrew from the Iran nuclear deal; the review says no credible report mentioned a threat to use a nuclear bomb against the U.S.[S1]
