4 convicted over plot against US sites in Germany
Two German converts to Islam and two Turkish men were convicted Thursday over a foiled 2007 plot to attack US targets in Germany and given prison sentences ranging up to 12 years.
The four men, operating as a German cell of the radical Islamic Jihad Union, had plotted bombing attacks against American citizens and facilities including the US Air Force's Ramstein base in Germany, the Duesseldorf state court found. (AP)
