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.'

Said weenies are already voting for Kerry...
sw
Game 4 of the World Series is tonight. This would be one way to ensure "The Curse" remains in effect... (only half joking)
"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"
Don't you see??? It says, "FOR electing George Bush." Otherwise there will only be an attack IF GW is elected and ABC was waiting until after the elections to see the outcome of the election. I am betting they have another tape IF Kerry is elected.
ON FOX NOW
DETAILS Adam Yahiye Gadahn is being sought in connection with possible terrorist threats against the United States. Although the FBI has no information indicating this individual is connected to any specific terrorist activities, the FBI would like to locate and question this person.

FNC now reporting the Drudge report...
I do not think that that is the point. I think that folks are outraged that ABC would hold this from the American people because of politics.
But do the democrats?
The terrorists love Kerry don't they...shouldn't that tell the DUmmies something? But it's beyond that...this is the coming revolution for them....a chance to change the system.
Just confirmed on FNC.
ABC handed it over to the Pentagon and CIA for authenticity.
ABC not running tape because they don't know if it's authentic....acording to FNC
