Jewish bomb plotter jailed in US
The plotters targeted a mosque in a Los Angeles suburb
A Jewish extremist who plotted to blow up a Los Angeles mosque and the office of a US congressman of Lebanese descent has been sentenced to 20 years in jail.
Earl Krugel was arrested in 2001 with another leader of a group called the Jewish Defence League, Irv Rubin, who died in jail in an apparent suicide.
Krugel, 62, admitted the charges. The sentence was the heaviest he could receive under his plea bargain.

The pair were charged in December 2001 with conspiring to bomb the mosque and send explosives to the offices of Congressman Darrell Issa, who is of Lebanese Christian descent.
