New York – A jury deciding the fate of a man accused of plotting to bomb New York synagogues and shoot down military planes have begun hearing secretly recorded tapes of the defendant saying he wanted to kill a Jew he met at a hotel.

The tapes were played Monday at the trial of James Cromitie and three other men.
An informant who recorded the conversation in 2008 tells Cromitie a good Muslim can’t kill out of anger. He says, “It must be for jihad.”
The four men were arrested in 2009 in an elaborate sting operation. They have pleaded not guilty to charges that they engaged in a conspiracy to use weapons of mass destruction and conspiracy to acquire and use anti-aircraft missiles to kill U.S. officers and employees.
They face possible life prison terms if convicted.
Mr. informant,please tell Bloomberg what you just said that a “good” muslim cant kill out of anger only for JIHAD. maybe this comment will help speed up the construction of the mosque.
