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.'

"America has brought this on itself for electing George Bush who has made war on Islam"


That does it, I'm jumping ship and voting for Kerry. I value my own skin more than my freedom! (sarcasm)

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.

That statement alone pretty much guarantees any undecideds left will shift toward Bush. No one likes to be threatened. The only people who believe this tripe are the ones who are already voting for Kerry.

These terrorists are absolute idiots.

Hello,

So... according to Drudge, this video shows a terrorist threatening to "make the streets run with blood", because we elected GW Bush. It goes on to say this is retaliation for destroying the Taliban and declaring war on Al Qeada.

THESE EVENTS OCCURED AFTER 9-11!!!!!!!! I guess we were supposed to sit back and take it.

Of course ABC will hold this, it helps our President.

Glad to be here, (mad as I am right now!), MOgirl
