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.'

Think Spain.
Whom did they get the VIDEO from? How long have they had this video? Why did they NOT notify the Government when contacted and/or given this video?
Inquiring minds want to know!!!
CORRECTED: Ass I Am the American
<manly-voice>It is series... and don't call me Shirley.</manly-voice>

?????
If you count the duplicate threads the mods have deleted, I think that we're still way above that 2000/hour rate.
ABC afraid releasing tape will help Bush .
"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."
ABC MUST release this tape.
That'd make me gag but if it costs Lurch some votes then run it!
I think it was held because polls indicate that when the terrorost level rises so does the Presidents approval ratings-Shame on ABC!!!
More Kudos to the Bush vision of trutrh is what this may be about........If the MSM was holding this back not to get voters seeing GW as right on the money then they will be blasted.......another piece to the puzzle that is sinking the networks......
Remember Kerry has downplayed terrorism and makes his voters think Bush is just hyping this stuff up. If this vid is a direct attack threat......No question it makes ABC stink.....again!

LOL!
Sounds like the language of Saddam and his Mother of all Wars speech before the 1991 Gulf War.
Right. It's only a credible threat worth knowing about if it causes GW to lose votes.
Like gas, food and flu shot shortages do.
