XXXXX DRUDGE REPORT XXXXX WED OCT 27, 2004 12:42:01 ET XXXXX

ABCNEWS HOLDS TERROR WARNING TAPE

**Exclusive**

In the last week before the election, ABCNEWS is holding on a videotaped message from a purported al Qaeda terrorist warning of a new attack on America, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.

The terrorist claims on tape the next attack will dwarf 9/11. "The streets will run with blood," and "America will mourn in silence" because they will be unable to count the number of the dead. Further claims: America has brought this on itself for electing George Bush who has made war on Islam by destroying the Taliban and making war on Al Qaeda.

ABCNEWS strongly denies holding the tape back from broadcast over political concerns during the last days of the election.

The CIA is analyzing the tape, a top federal source tells the DRUDGE REPORT.

ABCNEWS obtained the tape from a source in Waziristan, Pakistan over the weekend, sources tells DRUDGE.

"We have been working 24 hours a day trying to authenticate [the tape]," a senior ABCNEWS source said Wednesday morning.

The terrorist's face is concealed by a head dress, and speaks in an American accent, making it difficult to identify the individual, but US intelligence officials believe that man may be Adam Gadhan - aka Adam Pearlman - a southern California native who was highlighted by the FBI in May as an individual most likely to be involved in or have knowledge of the next al Qaeda attacks.

According to the FBI, Gadahn, 25, attended al-Qaida training camps and served as an al-Qaida translator.

The disturbing tape runs an hour -- the man simply identifies himself as 'Assam the American.'

He wasn't "sighted"... there was a story in a Pakistan newspaper that he had left one location and was headed somewhere else "on the move." As in "noone around here has seen him, check over there." ;)

Not hardly. The tape refers to 9/11. See this thread.

Well, that narrows it down to a three-year window.

It's just "day of rage," "mother of all battles" hyped up rhetoric that they always used. Don't over analyze it...they just like the sound of their high falutin' words.

Actually, this terror video pales in comparison to this one: Courtesy of a bona fide, Hall of Fame DUmmy "Revree"... "Just saw "Mosh" Eminem - made me cry So unbelievably powerful. Every young American should see it before they vote." God help us, John.

Hahahahah, true enough!

IS THIS A THREAT THAT if we vote for George W. Bush, they are going to GET us???

Well, they can attack us between now and January and we would still keep our President. You can't pull the President out of his seat during war time. And we sure would be at war!

I'd much rather have a land slide victory at the polls, though.

I fully understand that. My reply to UCANSEE2 was in the reference he/she made that the tape could have been addressed to Bush 41, not Bush 43.

I didn't know either, but found it referenced on www.jihadwatch.org (pardon me for saying he was in Pakistan, he was only "close"):

From the South Asia Tribune, with thanks to Kemaste:

NEW DELHI, October 25: Fugitive Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden has been spotted in the Tibet-Laddakh region, close to the North-Eastern tip of Pakistan, bordering India and China, Indian and US officials believe.

A high-ranking official of the US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) flew from Islamabad on Sunday to meet top Indian officials here in Delhi after reports of Bin Laden’s presence in the region.

According to sources, following the meeting between Indian security bosses and the FBI, the New Delhi Government has put its security forces in the North Western region, specially the Kashmir Valley, on 'red alert.

"Also interesting that Cuba just announced yesterday; that as of November 7, 2004 they will no longer be using the American Dollar." It was also reported that India was planning to cash out $120 billion in U.S. Treasury Bonds, and Russia was looking at doing something similar. This type of thing could have a greater impact than anything the terrorists would be likely to pull off. I feel like everyone may be leaving the table and we will be stuck with the check. How did you know this about Russia, if you don't mind my asking?

An investment newsletter I subscribe to made the claim: A Moscow-based news agency called RBC reports that the Russian government is following the Indian's lead.

I wish the Pentagon would give us a briefing. Will they raise the Threat Elevation, or what?

There are farmers up here working out in the fields that have NO idea.

The tape mentions the destruction of the Taliban.

This is true, so that would discount my theory.

You obviously read the statements, and put some thought processes into it. Something not everyone does. I am trying to get the panickers to settle down. Especially the "Let's hang the ABC folks in the town square" crowd. They are just a bit jumpy, although I don't blame them with the "RATHER (not watch) CBS" fiasco.

They are contributing to the delight of the DEMS and DU crowd who are watching us firing a SCUD MISSILE just to hit a CAMEL IN THE ASS.

I was just expressing my general thoughts and your post was at the bottom. I really was not referring to your post. Sorry

Sean Hannity just indicated his source has seen the tape and it's one of the most chilling tapes you'll ever heard.

Mr. Lenin. Please take time to read enough to find out that the title of this should be "ABC has copy OF TERRORIST VIDEO", and that DRUDGE's IMPLICATION they WITHHELD it from CIA/FBI/HS is nonsense.
