A man convicted of plotting to blow up fuel tanks at John F. Kennedy Airport has been sentenced to life in prison.
Abdul Kadir, a former member of Guyana's parliament, was convicted earlier this year on multiple conspiracy charges.
He was arrested in 2007 after an informant infiltrated the terror plot.
Prosecutors say he wanted to outdo the September 11th attacks, and sought the help of militant Muslims.
Kadir told the judge before sentencing that he was a peace-loving man who never wanted to harm Americans.
Former JFK cargo handler Russell Defreitas, who was also convicted in the plot, will be sentenced in January.
