“I would sacrifice myself to bring attention to what the United States military was doing to civilians in Afghanistan by sacrificing my soul for the sake of saving other souls.” - Najibullah Zazi - discussing his bomb-making training in Pakistan in 2008 - in U.S. District Court in Brooklyn today, after pleading guilty to terrorism charges in what he described as an Al Qaeda plot to set off a bomb in the New York City subway last year. Zazi, 25, will face a possible life term when he is sentenced on June 25. [NYT]
