Well, the first thought that comes to mind is that UBL and al Zawari have taken on a new look, as they stroll through the lush green mountainous region of, well, somewhere. They look like theyre dressed like Huck Finn and Tom Sawyer, and look as if they are on a mission to destroy a ring or something.
Second thought, why show a video of him walking around a forest, with audio over it? So, I'd say it stock footage, but I'm really not sure how much stock footage of Usama has been shot by al Queda, though its interesting to guess the non descript scenes and types of actions they might have filmed in order to release at later times to make it seem as if he's still alive. Perhaps one of praying on a mat in the desert, another scene where he's enjoying a dinner, perhaps another where he's standing outside of a 7-11 drinking a Slurpee and scoping out virgins. Who knows.
Anyway, what validity and/or meaning do you place on this video being put out on the eve of the attacks?
