Lebanese security forces nabbed Mohammed Jawad Al-Fahad Al-Issa, 26, at the border town of Kfar Kila as he apparently tried to draw the attention of nearby Israeli troops, said one official, on condition of anonymity.
"He told police that he thought if he cursed and insulted the Israelis, they would open fire and kill him, and that way he would at least die an honorable death," the official told AFP.
"He did this for sentimental reasons." Another security official said that Issa, a student at a technical university in Jordan, told police his Jordanian girlfriend had left him for another man and moved to the Palestinian territories.
It was unclear what he was doing in Lebanon.
