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.'

I emailed Rush Limbaugh at 1pm ..and he is talking about
it now..
If DU is worried, it might be good.
Its's pshops so it could go either way in my mind. .
Just hit FOX News... said the tape has been known for three or four days.
I wonder how long these ABC creeps have been holding it.
Bret Baier talking about - ABC says they were questioning the authenticity, that's all. Again - may be Adam Pearlman. No determination yet. ABC has had the tape for 3-4 days at least - they passed it to the CIA a day or 2 ago.
Thanks so much!!!!!!! I hope Rush gets fired up again!
Lets not release anything without authentication. ABC is the courier here, the call to release it or not should be on this administration.
Yes watching it.
Guess FOX follows drudge closely ;-)
Here's the investors' reasoning, causing the Dow to go up:
1 - There won't really be a terrorist attack.
2 - But the public scare will guaranty that President Bush is reelected.
Thus - the Dow is now back to almost 10,000, and the Nasdaq is up 35, almost 2 percent.
lol - and you were post number 777
How long did they HOLD it until it was turned over?
No you are not the anti christ I am. Christian, sourthern, republican, conservative, hawk, woman.
Of course Southern California is the US Branch of Al Quada with a colony of right thinking people bravely living with the infidels there.
BTW, the price of gold is way up ($428+/oz), and the dollar is down BIG in the past couple of days.
Another thread points to articles saying that large, international money is moving out of the USD as fast as they can - almost w/o regard to what they can get on conversion ratios. Almost like they can't get out fast enough.
This all seems to be a little more than pre-election jitters re: the outcome. Seems like someone expects a big drop in the US economy overnight. And what would trigger something like this, aside from a massive AQ hit?
Mental picture is hillarious. I would say boxers and an Iron Maiden t-shirt also.
and then the CIA thugs who desperately wish a Kerry victory sit on it for a week or two.
don't you think they made a copy?
What the hell?
This isnt a game mw11.
