If it has been faked it will be seamless, looking for problems is probably mispent.
The most revealing copmkment was one found in my local papers - experts, it said, believed that such a video could be faked but that the Americans would not do such a thing - faint praise indeed for its veracity.
My belief which is odd seeing I do believe that Bin Larden is most likely to have been in involved in S11 is that the "evidence" is altogether too perfect, much like a confession given to the police.
In the video "Bin Larden" states that the operatives did not know their mission until they were about to board the plane - henc etheir instructions must have come over a cell phone - expect to see a discovery soon of these very instructions.
Bin Larden may well be guilty but this form of proof needs all the corrobortion of any piece of criminal evidence - it is altogether too well tailoried for the evening news to carry too much wieght.

From the web page:
"A copy of "The New Yorker" seen sitting on the floor next to
one of Bin Laden's men is opened to the crossword page, which
has been nearly completed. Digital enhancement shows that the
clue for number 36 across was "He has been given high praise
for his upcoming feature debut 'Donnie Darko'". The correct
answer was "Richard Kelly", although Bin Laden apparently did
not know this because the space was blank. This question was
on the December 3rd movie related crossword in "The New Yorker",
while the video was supposedly filmed in November."
There's plenty of other evidence in the article as well-- it's quite a thorough debunking of the videotape myth."
