ISIS has issued a new social media message in which they claim that: “We will spill the blood of all Jews and all Cross-Worshippers, by cutting your necks on the stones of the al-Aqsa Mosque courtyard and everywhere else. This is the promise of Allah. What I coming for you will be even worse and more bitter,” the organization said in a  newly published video.

The Islamic State published the new video on their social media channels featuring the images of U.S. President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu. The two national leaders appear dressed in orange garb and kneeling before an ISIS terrorist who appears to be planning to behead them. The background of the image is the al-Aqsa Mosque.

The video is the delayed response of ISIS to the declaration of President Trump recognizing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, a move that arose condemnation from all parts of the Arab world. Until now, ISIS had not issued any sort of statement on the matter.

Some experts and journalists are surmising that after the military defeats that ISIS has suffered in Iraq and  Syria over t he past few months, that this is a last-ditch effort to garner support and popularity among the younger generation of Arabs.
