Colo. man went on solo mission to kill bin Laden
 
By DAN ELLIOTT and CHRIS BRUMMITT, Associated Press Writers Dan Elliott And Chris Brummitt, Associated Press Writers – 11 mins ago
DENVER – An American man has been detained in the mountains of Pakistan after local authorities found him carrying a sword, pistol and night-vision goggles on a Rambo-style solo mission to hunt down and kill Osama bin Laden.

Friends and family say construction worker Gary Brooks Faulkner is a devout, good-humored Christian who often talked about building a porch or framing a house — not taking down the world's most-wanted terrorist. They had few clues to explain his 7,300-mile journey.

"I'm like, 'What? They got him where?'" said Daren Paredes, a friend who met Faulkner in the northern Colorado town of Greeley. "He's a joker, and he's real talkative. ... He never really talked about terror or anything like that."

Something might have snapped with this one

1) he's already dead and we don't know it

or

2) he's already dead and we know it, but haven't revealed it yet for various reasons

or

3) he's not dead, and we know where he is, but the powers that be have decided that he's more useful alive than dead

Keep in mind there is still a bounty on Bin Laden. The only thing that surprises me is there aren't more "treasure hunters" looking for the $25 million hiding around the Pakistan/Afghanistan border.

So some construction worker managed to get from America to Pakistan and then into the mountains with just a sword, pistol, and night vision? If fucker can do that then they should let him keep on looking. Worst thing that can happen is he gets caught and killed. Best thing is he finds Bin Laden and chops fuckers head off. Either way we lose nothing.

In 2003 in afghansitan they were everywhere. They would pull in and out of pakistan avoiding border crossings and getting in small skirmishes with the reminants of the taliban.

He's pretty dead. I would be very surprised if he was alive. He is suffering from kidney failure, needs constant dialisys, the equipment for that isnt small or cheap, in 2001 the smallest machines were the size of a few refridgerators put together, the newest ones being produced now are about half the size of a refridgerator.

My guess is he died a meaningless inconsequential death sometime in early 2002 at the hands of the pakistan government.They cant talk about his death for fear that the rest of the mideast would light a fire under their ass

You all talking about Bin Laden? I'm confused LOL

2002, you really think it happened that soon? :skep: I was thinking more like 2006 or so.

He clearly had to be brought home. He forgot the video camera, to film the beheading with. That's a major faux pas.

He's the son of oil mega-billionaires. For all we know he could have a Doctor Evil hideout, dug into the side of an Afghani mountainside, with widescreen TV and a hot tub.

if his kidneys crapped out and needs dialysis he may have died a few yrs back. those people usualy dont do well and we have a few who constantly miss dialysis and that sort of thing, they usualy die in under 2 yrs.

kind of hard to take down a made up fake "terrorist" organization but more power to ya (must have been sucking all that high altitude air and lost his mind)..

I don't remember his kidney problems being announced as early as 2002, but who knows

I remember hearing he had kidney problems but no idea as to when it was either.

lol.......that dude lets absolutely anyone onto his talk show

Bin Laden was rich in his early life, but his family cut him off after he had a dissagreement during the invasion of kuwait in 91. When they cut him off he was worth an estimated 50mil which he used mainly to fund al qaida, whatever money was left after 9/11 was funnelled away from him by the CIA. Around the same time in early 02 he probably died of a kidney related stroke. The last date verifiable video of him was released way back in early 2002. All the videos and audio messages released since then can not be date verified or proven that it is him.

Mudpuppy 06-18-2010 06:36 PM

but its really cool to say "terror" and "al queder" on tv a million times because if you say it enough then enough people will believe it and it is ok to spend billions if not trillions fighting a "war" {insert opportunity for profit here}...

fuck alex jones - the guy is an idiot and a disgrace..

put down the iphone, get out of walmart and start thinking for yourself..

Just working from memory I thought it was being talked about around the Tora Bora time frame. I could easily be wrong though.

Amorok 06-20-2010 07:02 PM

Bin Laden talks kids into blowing themselves up for the cause. I'm pretty sure he could talk one of them out of a kidney. And I'm pretty sure there's a hospital in Jordan/Syria/Lebanon/random North African nation where he could get any amount of treatment necessary in total safety. We're not talking about one of Jeff Dunham's puppets here, we're talking about an evil terrorist overlord. I wouldn't be surprised by anything.
