Nearly 500, mostly cheeseball, posts in 15 minutes.
...not bad.
ABC spiking the video so as to avoid reminding people that we are at war (and that Bush is correct) . . . ABC afraid releasing tape will help Bush . . .
Obviously trying to keep terror threat down to help Kerry.
Well, Drudge, we all knew already that ABC News is just another word for Al Jazeera...
so what is the story? That ABC has the video, or that ABC is evidently not running the video.. or what? And what is the controversy???
Eh...
Its up for me
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.'

http://www.vpro.nl/programma/tegenlicht/afleveringen/18793157/ (go to right of screen to access video) and then couple with : http://www.kosovo.com/rpc3.html I cannot understand why this is being buried. I emailed it Co. W... He get's thing out good
They are holding the video becase they are threatening to destroy American schools unless John Kerry is elected.
I smell a rat too... Video of terrorist going to attack America and I won't be surprised at all if in the video it shows blocks of the supposed missing explosives. Sometimes I think Kerry is not only colluding with the MSM but he is actually coordinating directly with the Terrorists.....
Wow, yet another of the countless videos of a terrorist threats against the west........very doubtful

"So these two goats walk into a cave...oh, I see you've already heard this one...Thank you, you've been a wonderful audience. Now my wife tells me she needs a new coat - so I told her to grow one! Thank you! I promise to be back before Ramadan..."
So how is it that ABC and only ABC has this video?
Tape of Kerry studying the Rosie Ruiz "path" in the Boston Marathon.

I would think they are holding it to scare voters at the last minute... thinking fear will hurt Bush.
My guess: the terrorists say that there will be an attack IF GWB is re-elected.
Well, I would wonder if it's not the JF'n urinating on Old Glory video
All he was sayyyyying
was give pee a chance
Oh BFD!!
ANother dirty terrorist calling for terrorist act...
ABC is probably wringing hands over whether to release as it will piss people off and help Bush.
