And at Versailles, no less

This meme is split into two stacked sections. The top section is a classic screencap from the animated show *The Simpsons*, showing Bart Simpson holding a disembodied severed arm with a shocked, wide-eyed, open-mouthed expression. Below the screencap, large header text reads "UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER!", followed by a purported social media post attributed to Donald J. Trump that states there will be no diplomatic deal with Iran except for their unconditional surrender, after which the US and its allies will help rebuild Iran to be stronger, coining the acronym MIGA (Make Iran Great Again) as a parody of Trump's famous MAGA slogan, with the post marked as issued from The White House. The joke draws a parallel between Trump's extreme foreign policy demand for unconditional surrender from Iran, the absurd Simpsons visual of accepting a severed arm as a surrender token, and historical high-stakes surrender agreements signed at Versailles to emphasize the outlandish severity of the stated policy.

UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER! There will be no deal with Iran except UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER! After that, and the selection of a GREAT & ACCEPTABLE Leader(s), we, and many of our wonderful and very brave allies and partners, will work tirelessly to bring Iran back from the brink of destruction, making it economically bigger, better, and stronger than ever before. IRAN WILL HAVE A GREAT FUTURE. "MAKE IRAN GREAT AGAIN (MIGA!)." Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP
