A Massachusetts man agreed Tuesday to plead guilty to two federal charges 
related to an alleged plot to attack the US Capitol building and the 
Pentagon with large remote-controlled model aircraft packed with 
explosives.

Rezwan Ferdaus of Ashland, Mass., will serve a 17-year prison sentence and 
10 years of supervised release if the agreement is accepted by a federal 
judge in Boston.

The defendant agreed to plead guilty to attempting to use explosives to 
destroy a federal building and attempting to provide material support to 
terrorists.

Mr. Ferdaus, a physics graduate of Northeastern University in Boston, was 
arrested in September shortly after undercover FBI agents posing as Al 
Qaeda operatives delivered 25 pounds of sham C-4 military explosives, 
three grenades, and six AK-47 assault rifles to a storage locker.

Ferdaus came under scrutiny by the FBI when an unnamed cooperating witness 
tipped off authorities. 

The cooperating witness had been in contact with Ferdaus from December 
2010 to April 2011.

Undercover FBI agents entered the investigation in March 2011.

�Ferdaus told the [undercover agents] that he realized more than a year 
ago from viewing jihadi websites and videos �how evil� America is, and 
that jihad is the solution,� according to documents on file in federal 
court.

The documents say Ferdaus wanted to �terrorize� the country and 
�decapitate� the US government�s military center. He told the agents he 
hoped to �severely disrupt � the head and heart of the snake.�

His drive to attack the US was so strong, documents say, that at one point 
he told the undercover agents: �I just can�t stop; there is no other 
choice for me.�

Federal authorities say Ferdaus also provided the agents with 12 mobile 
phones that had been altered to function as detonation switches for 
improvised explosive devices. Calling the phone number would trigger the 
explosion.

The undercover agents told Ferdaus that his phone switches were being sent 
to Iraq for use against US forces. At one point they told him (falsely) 
that his phone device had been used in an IED that killed three American 
soldiers and injured four or five others.

�Ferdaus was visibly excited by this news and told the [undercover agents] 
he felt �incredible � we�re changing the world,� � according to federal 
documents.

He allegedly told the agents he was 100 percent at peace with the fact 
that his devices were being used to kill American service members.

�This is exactly what I wanted and I feel so blessed.� I feel that I am 
seeing the fruits of my labor.� I want to work with you guys and I want to 
hit the snake on the tail and I want to choke it right in the head.� The 
world will never be the same,� he is quoted as saying.

His idea to attack buildings in Washington included a plan to obtain model 
aircraft capable of flying up to 100 miles per hour and carrying a payload 
of 50 pounds. His first design was to load each plane with 16 grenades 
timed to detonate immediately prior to contact. Later he asked the 
undercover agents to see if they could locate plastic explosives.

His plan was to fly one plane into the center of the dome of the Capitol 
and cause it to collapse. The Pentagon was to be hit by two planes 
directed into the building�s fourth floor.

Both attacks would include gunman positioned near building exits to shoot 
anyone trying to escape.

Federal officials stress that the public was never in danger from the 
explosive devices and that Ferdaus was under surveillance as his plot 
developed.

A sentencing date has not yet been set.
