Matt Drudge has broken a story about a new terror threat via videotape:

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.

It will be interesting to see if this will have any effect on the election. It would also be interesting to know if that was the reason behind ABC's reluctance to share the story. Finally, it will be interesting to see if the news will actually break now that Drudge has breached the dam.
