Some people think it may be another AQ leader speech
other than UBL, but the rumors are it is UBL. We’ll see.

Video: “What Every American Needs to Know About Jihad”
A Zawahiri tape and the “Good News” banner preceded a UBL tape right about this time last year.
Any significance with a red banner this time rather than a blue one?
UBL last seen on video - - 10/29/04 (6/29 tape last year turned out to be audio).
A video appearance justifies an elevation in the general threat level (IMHO).

Bin Laden to Issue Videotape Tribute to Slain al-Qaida in Iraq
(excerpt)
CAIRO, Egypt, June 28, 2006 - Osama bin Laden will issue a videotaped message paying tribute to slain al-Qaida in Iraq chief Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, a message posted on an Islamic militant Web site said Wednesday.
The message did not say when the video would be posted or whether bin Laden himself would appear in it. The al-Qaida leader has issued three audiotapes this year but has not appeared in a video since one issued on Oct. 29, 2004.
A similar “advertisement” was issued for an al-Zarqawi tribute put out last week by bin Laden’s deputy, Ayman al-Zawahri. The advertisement appeared on the Web a day before the video was posted on Friday. . .
The note for the bin Laden video was posted on a Web forum where militants often post messages. It was in the form of a blue banner signed by As-Sahab, the al-Qaida production branch.
The banner flashed the message, “Good News Soon,” followed by a picture of a smiling al-Zarqawi and the words, “A tribute to the martyr of the Islamic nation and prince of the martyrdom-seekers, Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, God rest his soul, from Sheik Osama bin Laden, God preserve him.” The banner then flashes a picture of bin Laden.

Al-Qaida releases new video tape
Ayman al-Zawahri is seen on the tape
(excerpt)
(Egypt-AP, July 4, 2007) - Al-Qaida’s No. 2 has issued a new video tape calling on Muslims to unite in jihad, or holy war, and support the Islamist movement in Iraq, a U.S.-based intelligence monitoring group said Wednesday. . .
An Internet site deemed close to al-Qaida’s leadership announced earlier Wednesday that “good news” would be coming soon.
The flashing red banner was interpreted by several other Islamist web sites as a sign that Osama bin Laden would issue a new message soon. It was not immediately clear whether it was in fact referring to his deputy’s new tape.
