Washington, April 4 : The Islamic State jihadist group, in a new audio tape, on Tuesday called on its supporters in the US, Europe and Russia and elsewhere in the world to stage attacks.
The 36-minute tape purportedly by IS spokesman Abu Hassan states: "Our war with our enemy is a global war," the director of US-based terrorist tracking website, Rita Katz tweeted.
"Abu Hassan portrays #ISIS as the defender of Muslims, calls upon Sunnis in #Iraq and #Syria to join the group's self-proclaimed Caliphate," Katz said in a further tweet.
Hassan praises IS-inspired attacks in Europe in the tape and claims an Islamic Caliphate will spread from Baghdad to Damascus, Jerusalem, Amman, Istanbul and Rome after Tehran.
The message calls US President Donald Trump "a bumbling fool who doesn't know what the Levant, Iraq and Islam are".
"The United States is sinking under the leadership of a bumbling fool...it is bankrupt," the message states.
