Saudi accused of Bush home attack plot indicted

A Saudi man who was attending college in Texas was indicted Wednesday on a charge of attempting to use a weapon of mass destruction, after prosecutors say he ordered bomb components online and had hatched plans to attack various US targets, including New York City and former President George W. Bush's Dallas home.
Khalid Ali-M Aldawsari, 20, could be sentenced to life in prison and fined $250,000 if he's convicted of the single count. US District Judge Sam Cummings also issued an order Wednesday that prohibits the parties to the case and their attorneys from speaking with the news media. The FBI says Aldawsari was considering a range of targets, including dams, nuclear power facilities and Bush's Dallas home.
