US President Donald Trump swore in frustration, and Iranian embassies across the world had a field day. It began on Sunday when Donald Trump vented his frustration on Truth Social, posting, \u201cOpen the F****** Strait, you crazy b*******, or you\u2019ll be living in Hell – JUST WATCH!,\u201d in a message widely seen as unusually blunt even by his standards. Iranian embassies swiftly seized on the outburst, using it as an opportunity to deliver pointed, and at times wry, responses to the former president\u2019s remarks.The Iranian Embassy in India shared the screenshot of Trump’s post and took a direct jibe, which read, “Swearing and throwing insults are how sore loser brats behave. Get a grip on yourself, old man!”The UK embassy passed the remarks using Mark Twain’s quote, saying, “It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt.” It also quoted a post by a UK MP who had called out Trump’s use of the phrase, “Praise be to Allah”, for mocking Islam.Quoting the post, the embassy said, “Actually it’s sign of weakness & SICKNESS.”The Zimbabwe embassy account first posted a snarky remark stating, “We’ve lost the keys (to opening the Strait).” Next it went on to list out the Presidential decorum with a screenshot of the post. It also referred to one of its older post where it said, “Trump, please talk. We are bored,” and said, “Next request please.”The embassy of South Africa did not hold back and went on a spree of reactions to the post. It began with saying, “Seriously, think about the 25th Amendment, Section 4.” Section 4 of the 25th Amendment in the US Constitution provides a constitutional mechanism for the Vice President and a majority of the Cabinet to declare the President “unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office.” It also referenced Zimbabwe\u2019s \u201clost the keys\u201d quip, adding with dry humour, \u201cShh\u2026 the key\u2019s under the flowerpot. Just open for friends.\u201d In a follow-up post, it rattled off a list of countries for whom the Strait was supposedly \u201copen,\u201d implying that these \u201cfriends\u201d were never quite sure it had been closed in the first place. The sequence culminated with a tongue-in-cheek take on Trump\u2019s reaction upon realising that, at least for him, the Strait was very much shut.It further quoted another post, which stated that it was embarrassing for a president and that Trump should delete the post unless he wants everyone to think he has “lost his marbles.” Quoting this, it said, “No, let it be. Humanity must know what kind of creatures are leading the American people. The American people deserve better than this.”The Iranian embassy in Tajikistan also shared the same post and said, “It was understood with a slight delay, but congratulations nonetheless.” Then, ending the post in Trump’s signature style, it said, “Thank you all for your attention. Embassy of the Islamic Republic of Iran in Tajikistan.”Bulgaria’s Iranian embassy shared an animated image depicting the Strait of Hormuz choking Trump’s neck.Thailand\u2019s embassy, for its part, opted for a more direct approach, publicly calling out Trump\u2019s language. In a pointed remark laced with understated sarcasm, it questioned whether such rhetoric was befitting a former president, and whether this was the image he intended to project of the United States to the world.It remarked, \u201cWe know that some Americans swear, but is this the best and finest of you as POTUS? Is this how you want to be represented in the world? Language!\u201dIt went further, adding, \u201cWe get it that you’re a blood thirsty empire in decline, but you don’t have to show your inferiority by this language. Allah is far greater and all-encompassing to be used by your Najis mouth. Go ruin some more enterprises and never come back to global politics.\u201dThe statement closed on a sharp note: \u201cJudging by how POTUS swears like a teenager, it seems the US has reached the Stone Age sooner than expected.\u201dIran’s Finnish embassy made a comment that was polite but full of criticism for Trump’s message and the choice of words. It said that the Strait is open and that Trump should not rely on potentially unverified inputs from newly appointed military officials when making sensitive public statements. It wrote, “The Strait of Hormuz remains open, though access can be influenced by the level of hostility. It may be prudent to diversify updates and not to rely on those from newly appointed military Generals before making public statements on such sensitive matters. Additionally, the tone and language of your recent post suggest it may have been handled by individuals underaged or unfamiliar with proper social media etiquette and morality.“It also ended its statement with, “Thank you for your attention to this matter.”The Iranian embassy in Austria said, “POTUS has stooped to an unprecedented level of begging, laced with bitter, hollow rudeness and threats. The desperation is almost palpable, dripping from every syllable\u2014especially the haphazardly hurled expletives. We solemnly remind everyone, once again, that attacking civilian infrastructure such as bridges and power plants constitutes a WarCrime. A further warning: shield all minors under 18 from exposure to Trump\u2019s rhetoric.“<\/div>\n\n
