By now most US residents with internet access are well aware that the White House likes to use pop hits to promote their violent, white nationalistic nonsense on social media, even if the stars behind those pop hits never agreed to it. Now, as we approach two weeks since the US and Israel started bombing Iran, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have evidently caught on to the White House’s social media strategy (maybe it’s happened sooner, but I’m sure as hell not checking the IDF’s social media). In an Instagram clip Saturday, the IDF used Franz Ferdinand’s “Take Me Out,” and the guys behind the 2004 hit are pissed about it.
