Islamic State (IS) militants have threatened to launch another 9/11 style terror attack on US homeland in a message on Twitter using the hashtag, "We Will Burn America".

According to the New York Post, the IS extremists posted a propaganda video on Twitter that was filled with ominous threats and a bloodthirsty highlight reel of their "greatest hits".

The video is 11-minute long and a compilation of IS' most atrocious acts of terrorism and savagery can be seen.

As images of the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center repeatedly flash across the screen, it read that the "blessed incursion was a fatal blow".

IS militants can be seen throughout the footage steering tanks and blasting mortar shells at unknown targets.
