He urged Arabs to launch "heroic operations similar to the invasion of the American consulate in Beautiful Downtown Peshawar and the bombing of the Danish embassy in Islamabad," in their cities and capitals.

"it is obligatory to avoid harming Mohammedans and destroying their properties" when carrying out such attacks, he said in Arabic, with the video providing English subtitles.
