Operation Epic Fury is a codename used by Washington for its joint military campaign with Tel Aviv against Iran, launched on February 28, and frequently employed in official White House statements since the start of the war.
The word “epic” originates from Ancient Greek epos, meaning “word”, “tale”, or “story” and is also associated with meanings such as “promise”, “prophecy”, “proverb” and poetry in heroic verse. The term entered the English language through French épique, and its extended sense of “grand” or “heroic” was recorded in English by 1731.
The word “fury”, on the other hand, comes from Latin furia, meaning “rage” or “madness.” In Roman mythology, the Furiae were the counterparts of the Greek Erinyes. According to the Online Etymology Dictionary, the term also refers to these avenging deities, who were believed to be sent from Tartarus to punish wrongdoers.
Together, Epic Fury stands for “rage of epic proportions”.
