Gary Faulkner, the Colorado man who was detained in Pakistan last month while on a mission to hunt down Osama bin Laden, points to a painting entitled "A Renaissance Dream of 9-11: The Killing of Osama bin Laden" at the home of artist Jerry Cool in Muncie, Ind. On Monday, Faulkner accepted Cool's painting honoring his attempts to capture the al-Qaida leader. Cool said he made the painting after he had a dream in 2008 in which "a man with gray hair and a dark beard" kills bin Laden. "Once I saw Gary on TV, I knew that was him in my vision," Cool said. "To me, he's the only one that deserves that painting." (AP Photo/The Star Press, Kelly Day)
