TERROR TAPE WARN OF BUSH, CHENEY CONSEQUENCE; ABC WITHHELD PORTIONS FROM CIA

**Exclusive**

ABCNEWS withheld portions of an alarming new al Qaeda videotape which warns the next terror attack will dwarf 9/11 from the CIA when they submitted the video for analysis, a top federal source tells the DRUDGE REPORT.

The CIA and FBI late Wednesday authenticated the tape, federal sources tell DRUDGE. ABCNEWS has been informed of the government's standing.

"What took place on September 11 was but the opening salvo of the global war on America and that our Lord willing, the magnitude and ferocity of what is coming your way will make you forget all about September 11," the man, whose face is covered by a headdress, warns in the video. "After decades of American tyranny, now it's your turn to die."

ABCNEWS submitted portions of the video threat to the FBI and CIA on Monday for analysis, top government sources tell DRUDGE, after obtaining the tape from a source in Pakistan.

A top goverment source said from Washington that ABC withheld the final 15 minutes of the tape from the CIA -- the portion of the tape where the man warns of retribution for Americans electing Bush and Cheney.

"You are guilty, guilty, guilty.  You're as guilty as Bush and Cheney.  You're as guilty as Rumsfeld and Ashcroft and Powell...," the man states.

He goes on to warn of an upcoming horror: "The streets will run with blood," and "America will mourn in silence" because they will be unable to count the number of the dead.

"People of America, that was the verdict now for the sentencing: as participants and partners in the crimes of the regime, you too shall pay the price for the blood that has been spilled."

One ABC source, who demanded anonymity, said Thursday morning, the network was struggling to find a correct journalistic "balance" before airing any story on the video.

"This is not something you just throw out there while people are voting," the ABC source explained.

LA Times got whacked during the Arnold governor's run when they started with the parade of bimbos and polling shennanigans.

The maggots in charge of ABCNNBC BS, NY/LA SLIMES and the rest of the MSM are destroying any credibility they might have with normal/sane Americans.

Years ago, when we only had one news station and no computers, the media could pull the wool over our eyes.

Not so today. Even when the news media hides it from us on the news, we still find it on the Internet!

It's an entirely different thing to fake documents and to withhold a videotape made by a man wanted by the FBI and which includes national security information.

It's like comparing apples and oranges.

Looks like it's time for a perp walk of all News Department personnel who even touched it. Can you get bail for treason?

IMHO Thornburg should publicly resign from the CBS investigation because they were involved in the fake munitions story, and he is being used to put off the fake document consequences until after the vote. Now we have the election and national security compromised by ABC.

Yep, I saw that too, and wondered why there was a difference.

I don't know. I just don't know what to say.

I have been going on for months now about how the MSM has taken off the gloves and has gone pretty much out into the open in hating George W. Bush. I said two weeks ago that what we were about to see from the media would be "Jaw dropping".

Even so, I continue to be shocked at what I see. I think it is now beyond dispute that the networks, NY Times, AP, and Reuters must be coordinating with each other and with the Democrats at some level. They intend to defeat Bush in the election, and if they fail they will try to defeat him in the Courts, and if they fail there they will work together to destroy his Presidency. I sense something coming. The logical end to this is violence in the streets.

Ok, this part in Drudge's report -- what does this mean? "ABC News has been informed of the government's standing."

"ABCNEWS withheld portions of an alarming new al Qaeda videotape which warns the next terror attack will dwarf 9/11 from the CIA when they submitted the video for analysis, a top federal source tells the DRUDGE REPORT.

I bet you find out that ABC did not turn over the complete tape because it would have been released.

Grandpa, I think you could put a check mark in CNN's box. For documentation you could use the story of how they withheld information about torture in exchange for the right to keep a media presence in Iraq. I believe this was right before we attacked. Also the USA today news rag. This is a nationally read newspaper who fired a conservative but kept Micheal Moore on as a "journalist" covering the GOP convention.

One thing I have not heard discussed. If, as the CIA says, this is an authentic Al Quaeda tape, then it may well contain (probably does contain) coded messages to sleeper cells in the USA. I do not know what kind of attacks are planned - your fear for our schools is by no means unfounded - but I bet the trigger may well be in this tape. I do not think ABC or any responsible news outlet should show it now or at any time. The tape was made this summer and given to ABC by terrorists who were probably pretty secure in their belief that ABC would show it right before the election.

Mind you, there is probably some default plan for the attacks to go whether the tape is shown or not, but let's not make it easy for them.
