ISIS militants in the Philippines have released a new video threatening to destroy Rome as they desecrate Catholic Church. The video is said to be filmed in the city of Marawi, Philippines that clearly shows militants shooting and setting fires within a church, as they destroy a crucifix and statues of St. Mary and St. Joseph. It also contains a graphic footage of fighting in the besieged Philippine city, including dead Philippines soldiers and militants shooting AK-47s as a narrator encourages Muslims in East to come to Asia “to perform jihad”.
As reported by dailymail.co.uk, one of the criminals- named Abu Jindal- looks straight at the camera and says in English “Remember this, you kuffar (an extremely offensive term for non-Muslims)= we will be in Rome, we will be in Rome, inshallah(god willing). One jihadist tears up the photos of His Holiness Pope Francis and Benedict XVI.
The video is narrated by an ISIS militant who appears to have an American accent and he claims the group has fought to conquer territory in East Asia and ISIS members are seen wrecking a Church, in the video.
