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.'

It (thank God) has been kinda quite here in the US lately. All the security BS that we have to go through creates more and more layers of security. More chances for them to mess up or get caught. They must not have the means, knowledge, skill, personnel or the cash to pull it off. Looks like technology, the Patriot Act, and Homeland Security are doing their job. Just more proof that a free society where personal liberty abounds is the best place to live. Exactly what we are trying to promote in Iraq and Afghanistan.
You are correct. Reuters reports that the CIA continues to test the tapes authenticity though at this time nothing conclusive.
Kerry's daughter just can seem to get those lips to completely cover those teeth. Never mind the other stuff she's not covering.
I know, I go get a load of clothes out of dryer and there are 150 more posts.
So, what do you think about all of this?
If the CIA can't authenticate the video, should ABC show something that may/may not be for propaganda. Or maybe someone other than terrorists are wanting this tape played. What do you think?

Amen to that.
I thinking you get a video tape from someone in Pakistan saying they want to kill Americans, you take it seriously.
Very good observations.
No argument.
The CIA is still working on its authenticity. At this time, they can't confirm one way or the other.
Go screw yourself.
You animal!!!
I should have worked "From my cold, dead hands" into my statement below....
I am not an alarmist, but as I mentioned before, we should all be prepared. The President is not lying to us when he says "Not if, but when."
...because I will be damned if I will live in fear.
Bring it on!!!!!!!!
God Bless America.
God Bless President Bush.
God Bless the Brave Men and Women Answering the Call of Duty to The United States of America.

I understand that the containers, via agreements with other countries, are checked BEFORE they come here - Much less chance of blowing up in our harbors - not to mention, if the containers are targeted - the bombs or whatever, would be put on overseas?
I'm sure sKerry knows this - or would if he ever attended the security meetings.
Just another of his disinformation talking points?
However, something alluded to on another post re cargo ships...made me wonder (shiver)... what if all of sKerry's emphasis on cargo containers is because he's privy to something?
He is, after all, tied up with terrorist groups that are are also tied in with Bin L...
What, you say...how can I say this?
Do some research - here, I'll get you started.

Hehe!
Well, how about this one:
(Sorry, I have been on the phone all this time).
Easy, now.
Mossad's one of the good guys. I've been reading his posts for a long time. We're lucky to have him around.
may have been made in reference to George H. Bush.
Nothing conclusive on the tape......conflicting analyses it appears.
Any more Bret Baier reports since the 3 p.m. deadline?
What can I say to you? You are reading things into the article that are not there. Just like the MSM likes you to do.
What day did ABC get the tape?
What day did the CIA get a copy ?
"A horse is a horse, of course, of course..."
For now, but we should never rest until they are all captured or six feet under.
