------------------------------------------


 
And a Saudi national in the United States on a student visa has been
sentenced to life in prison for an attempted bomb plot. Khalid Ali-M
Aldawsari was convicted in June of purchasing chemicals and equipment
with the intent to make a bomb. His alleged targets included former
President George W. Bush and three former U.S. military officials
stationed at the Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq where scores of Iraqis were
tortured.
