A Moroccan-born man was arrested on Friday in Washington, D.C., on terrorism-related charges for allegedly planning to carry out a suicide bombing at the U.S. Capitol. The man, Amine El Khalifi, was arrested on his way to the Capitol in what turned out to be an FBI sting operation. At the time of his arrest, Khalifi was carrying what he believed to be was an explosive and a gun, but all of the items were given to him by the undercover agent.
