Al Qaeda in the Gaza Strip has issued a warning to the United States, saying 'Get ready for Islam' on WABC Radio in New York.

A leader of Jihadiya Salafiya in the Gaza Strip, Abu Sager, said during a Sunday interview with Aaron Klein of WABC Radio that Islam is coming and no one can prevent it, the Washington Times reports.

Although he did not claim that Islam would spread in America through acts of violence, he did suggest that Islamist jihadists, who are currently fighting Syrian President Bashar Assad, could turn their anger onto Israel and the United States, the report added.

He further said they will raise the Islamic flag wherever Muslims live and chase all the enemies of Islam wherever they are, in the West, in Europe and in the United States.
