Moroccan Man's Ambitions To Take Out Congress

We're learning more about Friday's sting in which The FBI arrested a Moroccan man for plotting a suicide bombing in the Capitol. An undercover agent posing as an Al Qaida operative handed Amine El Khalifi a bomb vest before arresting him. The bomb was a fake. The operation, court papers show, had been running for a year. El Khalifi started out wanting to bomb synagogues and restaurants before raising his ambitions to take out the Congress. A bond hearing is scheduled for Wednesday.
