WASHINGTON, Sept 7 (Reuters) - A U.S. official said on Friday there are no overt threats on the purported new videotape of al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden that is nearly 30 minutes long.

The official also said there are some references, such as U.S. involvement in the Iraq war, that may mean the tape is from 2007. He declined to give further details.

U.S. officials said earlier the government has obtained a copy of a purported videotape and is analyzing it.
