[history]
Los Angeles -- Adam Gadahn had a decidedly unconventional upbringing, with parents who farmed goats in Riverside County and shunned the conveniences of the late 20th century.
Yet at 17, he seemed to fit the profile of an average American boy. He loved watching television, listened to music his family disapproved of and drove his parents nuts by keeping his room a mess.

"'Having been around Muslims in my formative years, I knew well that they were not the bloodthirsty, barbaric terrorists that the news media and the televangelists paint them to be,' the statement said...."
This statement underscores the danger of this moron.

I'd say this enntire Drudge report is just a low-budget Spanish Strategy (as I've said repeatedly on the numerous threads that kept getting pulled-- and I'm not wading through the 1000+ post thread that remains). All they have to do is make the threat and try to shake up people enough to drive them away from Bush.
Which, IMHO, will not work.

Come home Adam. All is forgiven. That clicking sound you here is

Pearlman said she is a committed environmentalist and had encouraged her nephew to participate in a television show she produced. Before his religious conversion, she said, she had thought that Adam Gadahn might become a broadcast journalist. Broadcast journalist - Terrorist - what the hell is the difference!?!?!?

I'm sure Los Angeles is so proud of their native son.

"He called the Christian belief in the Trinity "ridiculous" and "gradually realized I could not be a Christian.'"
Well, the boy was right about one thing. If he can't believe the Trinity, he can't be a Christian.

Hope they have recordings of his voice to do an analysis to prove it is him. If this can be authenticated, then Comrade Kerry the Viet Con is toast. Who would trust the fraud Kerry to keep us safe when he continually is dissing the men and women RISKING THEIR LIVES in Iraq?

"Having been around Muslims in my formative years, I knew well that they were not the bloodthirsty, barbaric terrorists that the news media and the televangelists paint them to be," the statement said. "It was really a natural progression." Irony is so ironic sometimes. You can't make this stuff up.

All they have to do is make the threat and try to shake up people enough to drive them away from Bush.I think it will be just the opposite - IF this tape gets air time it will only boost Bush - and this is why ABC doesn't want to show it. I think there is enough time for this stuff to get leaked to other outlets before Nov 2.
