1. How come they didn't warn us with tape before 9/11?
Was there a tape warning Spain?

5. It's being reported now that abc has a videotape warning of an
attack in connection with the elections. Complete with a suspect already no less, picture and everything. First drudge reported it and now it's on tv.

13. Even better, Al Qaeda adopted the B*sh lie that the Taliban is destroyed.
Somebody forget to tell the Taliban, though. :eyes: Rove has lost his touch along with his mind. Obviously never lost his appetite, though.

22. Wow. is this a PREVENTED terrorist strike right before the Election?
Too bad only dozens and dozens of DUers predicted this would the October surprise. Otherwise this might have helped the president

23. Wait, where does it say in connection with the elections?
BC: Intelligence analysts cite ‘low’ concern
MSNBC and NBC News
Updated: 1:04 p.m. ET Oct. 27, 2004

The CIA is working to authenticate a videotape in which a man claiming to be an al-Qaida terrorist warns of devastating new attacks on the United States, federal officials told NBC News on Wednesday.

The existence of the tape was first reported Wednesday afternoon by Internet columnist Matt Drudge, who said it was obtained last weekend in Pakistan by ABC News. Drudge quoted an unidentified “senior ABC News source” as saying the network was “working 24 hours a day trying to authenticate” it.

U.S. officials told NBC News that the tape included now-standard militant Islamist rhetoric promising widespread destruction inside the United States. The man cannot be identified, the officials said, because his face is covered by a headdress.

The officials, speaking on condition of anonymity, said ABC gave the CIA a complete copy of the tape Monday. They described analysts’ concern as “low” because it is not clear that the tape was recorded recently and because the man on the tape, who speaks in what appears to be an American accent, mentions no details.

“It’s unclear what this tape is — even whether the person on the tape is an American,” one of the officials said.

7. Go here:
www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=102x936383

Sludge is saying that al-Qaeda has released a vid tape to ABC news saying "Be will attack you! Be scared! The Boogeyman is coming!"
(Not the actual words of the tape, but the timing is very, very suspicious.)

18. Is Katherine Harris on the tape?
If so, I'd take the warnings about our elections being disrupted seriously.

20. The tapes now replace the terror alerts.
People began to realize that the alerts were all bullshit and politically motivated, so they go to their old stand by the tapes. Problem is, these tapes show and tell nothing new. In fact this one is from may. Just more bullshit from the propaganda machine.

21. Bush_Begone
I think this conclusively proves that Bush causes terrorism much more than he fights it. We need a regime change.....in Washington!
