TERROR TAPE WARNS OF BUSH, CHENEY CONSEQUENCE
**Exclusive**
The CIA and FBI have authenticated a new al Qaeda videotape which warns of retribution for Americans electing Bush and Cheney.
"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."
The alarming tape which warns the next terror attack will dwarf 9/11.
The CIA and FBI late Wednesday authenticated the tape, federal sources tell DRUDGE.
ABCNEWS obtained the tape from a source in Pakistan.
"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."

I'm disappointed with the October surprise ... I mean come on, between Cheney spouting off about "nuclear" terrorism if Americans make the wrong choice, and Bush saying Kerry lacks the credentials to combat terrorism, I thought fear tactics were old and busted ... :p
Oh for the good old days ...

I'd have you read This:
| quote: | The statement said it supported U.S. President George W. Bush in his reelection campaign, and would prefer him to win in November rather than the Democratic candidate John Kerry, as it was not possible to find a leader "more foolish than you (Bush), who deals with matters by force rather than with wisdom."
In comments addressed to Bush, the group said:
"Kerry will kill our nation while it sleeps because he and the Democrats have the cunning to embellish blasphemy and present it to the Arab and Muslim nation as civilisation."
"Because of this we desire you (Bush) to be elected." |
Bush's policies have driven up recruiting for Al Qaeda. What better proof that the US wants to "destroy the Muslim faith" that Bush's attack on a country that posed no immenent danger and no connections to 9/11.
Terrorism has 2 goals, one is to shock the person/country, the other is to get the person/country to act in a way disproportional to the attack. The war in Afghanistan was apporopriate. However, going to Iraq was not. We have reports of up to 100,000 civilians dead in Iraq, while 3,000 of our innocent civilians were killed. How many Iraqi lives are worth 1 American life? These people's families aren't going to love America for liberating them, they are going to hate America for killing their father/mother/child. And hatred of America plays right into Osama's hand. |

Thursday, October 28, 2004 Posted: 10:21 PM EDT (0221 GMT)
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- After a technical analysis, the CIA cannot determine whether a videotape obtained by ABC News in Pakistan featuring a man claiming to be affiliated with al Qaeda is authentic, a U.S. intelligence official said Thursday.
"We have been unable to verify the tape's authenticity," the official said.
Portions of the 75-minute tape were aired Thursday evening by ABC News, which said it obtained the tape from a source known to have Taliban and al Qaeda contacts in the tribal regions of Pakistan.
ABC said it paid the source $500 in transportation fees.
A U.S. official said there were "real questions about its authenticity."
By that, the official said, he meant that it was not clear whether the tape was prepared by someone affiliated with al Qaeda and taking orders from its leaders, or whether it was a hoax.
With the presidential election just days away, officials are wary of a possible trick by an impostor.
"Without being able to authenticate it, it's just some guy talking on a tape," the U.S. intelligence official said.
On the tape, a man calling himself "Azzam the American" threatens terror attacks "at any moment," delivering the message in English. His face is covered with a headdress and he holds a rifle.
"People of America: I remind you of the weighty words of our leaders, Sheikh Osama bin Laden and Dr. Ayman al-Zawahiri, that what took place on September 11th was but the opening salvo of the global war on America," he says. "And that, Allah willing, the magnitude and ferocity of what is coming your way will make you forget all about September 11th."
A U.S. government official said the tape did not mention any means, mode or place of an attack.
Sources said copies of the tape were given to President Bush, Attorney General John Ashcroft, FBI Director Robert Mueller, former CIA Director George Tenet and nine other officials mentioned by name on the tape.
A U.S. intelligence official said the voice on the tape "does not match anyone we know of" who has been identified as being affiliated with al Qaeda.
The official said the tape was made in recent months, since it referred to the humanitarian crisis in Darfur, the same sex-marriage controversy in Massachusetts, and the report of the 9/11 commission.
The tape included a graphic indicating it was produced by the "Sahab Production Committee," which is the same as that seen on a number of authenticated al Qaeda tapes.
CNN's David Ensor, Kelli Arena, Jeanne Meserve and Jonathan Wald contributed to this report.

Another cunning ploy from bin Laden!
Does he want Bush to lose the next election?! Does he !
Bush has done absolute miracles for al-Qaida. If you understand what al-Qaida is, then you will understand that there is no way bin Laden can succeed without huge amounts of sympathy/support from Muslims in the Middle east and surrounding area. And what is the exact result from American action in said region? Huge amounts of support and sympathy! Yay!
So, whats the cunning plan? Tell people in America not to vote for Bush and they probably will!!!
Of course, this could be a cunning ploy from Bush who totally made up this story like the story about WMDs in Iraq! |
