In an apparent Sept. 11 communiqué broadcast on ABC News, an al Qaeda operative threatens new attacks against cities in the U.S. and Australia.

"Yesterday, London and Madrid. Tomorrow, Los Angeles and Melbourne, Allah willing. And this time, don't count on us demonstrating restraint or compassion," the tape warns. "We are Muslims. We love peace, but peace on our terms, peace as laid down by Islam, not the so-called peace of occupiers and dictators."

No September 11th would be completely without a threat tape. Apparently the speaker in the tape has been identified.

Only a few years ago, Adam Gadahn was a southern California teenager with interests in the environment and heavy metal music.

As I recall, John Walker was from northern California and liked rap. Tomorrow I look forward to reading an op-ed piece by some blithering idiot linking terrorism to Heavy Metal music. I'm sure there will be one, somewhere.
