Mr. Zazi told the court that he decided to go with friends to Pakistan in August 2008 to join the Taliban in fighting the United States invasion of Afghanistan.

While in Pakistan, he received training in making bombs, and was persuaded by Qaeda operatives to return to America to be a suicide bomber. They discussed possible targets, including the New York subway system.

“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,” he said. NY Terror Suspect Admits Guilt and Cooperates - nytimes
