Man Arrested for "Hunting" Bin Laden

I'll give him an A for effort. But something tells me this guy ain't quite right.

An American construction worker who was arrested with a sword, a pistol and night-vision goggles in northwestern Pakistan told investigators Tuesday that he wanted to kill Osama bin Laden to avenge the 2001 terrorist attacks on the U.S.

Garry Brooks Faulkner, 52 years old, of California was caught by Pakistani police Monday in the remote Bumburat Valley near the border of Afghanistan's Nuristan province, where he apparently hoped to find bin Laden. Police quoted him as saying he wanted to avenge the victims of the attacks on New York and Washington. He was also carrying Christian religious books with him, according to Mumtaz Ahmed Khan, a senior police officer in the northwestern town of Chitral.

He was seized from a forest in a high security zone close to the border after a 10-hour hunt. He carried a 40-inch sword, which he said he brought with him from California, and several rounds of pistol bullets, Mr. Khan said.
