Arcade Game at DC War Memorial Criticizes US Policy on Iran

Here's an interesting addition to the DC War Memorial. This arcade game is now on display. It's a protest against the war with Iran, and a group called the Secret Handshake is behind it. Yeah, it might sound familiar because that is the same group responsible for the statue of President Trump and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein on the National Mall last summer. Our Melissa Kim is getting reaction from some of our neighbors tonight. Well, this latest display is a little bit more interactive than ones we've seen from the past from the Secret Handshake. It's a video game titled Operation Epic Furious, and it depicts the president and his administration both in his office and in Iran.

It's a lot of fun. It's really funny. Malcolm Jones finding a sense of humor on an otherwise dreary afternoon. You have to laugh because what's the alternative? The DC native explains what he saw while playing the game Operation Epic Furious, a video game created by the group The Secret Handshake. You start off in the White House, and from there you talk to all the White House aids, and then you go to Iran. The Secret Handshake says the games are in response to the Trump administration using footage from video games, including Call of Duty, mashed up

with videos and photos from the actual strikes in Iran, a point that people noticed. What's the purpose Why are we in Iran? Like, you what's the purpose of any of this? Like, you go to Iran. Why are we there? Why are Yeah, why was I there in the game? I don't know. The Secret Handshake says it took them 3 weeks to come up with and program the game. The group does have a permit for the display. Now, we have reached out to the White House for any reaction or comment on this video game, but we have

yet to hear back. We're on the mall tonight. I'm Melissa Kim, WUSA9.
