Feds: Mass. man planned terror attacks on US malls

Federal forces arrested a 27-year-old Massachusetts man, Tarek Mehanna, today who was trying to start a holy war by attacking shoppers in U.S. malls, American troops in Iraq man, and kill two prominent U.S. politicians. Him and two other men expressed their desire to participate in "violent jihad against American interests" and talked about "their desire to die on the battlefield," and "kill, kidnap, maim or injure" people in foreign countries and their politicans, authorities said. Their alarming plans for the future also involved targeting U.S. troops in Iraq.
