BERLIN (*******) - German state prosecutors said on Friday they had charged a 33-year-old Tunisian man with trying to form a militant group to attack U.S. and Jewish targets in Germany.
The prosecutors' office said the man, identified only as Ihsan G., had attended an al Qaeda training camp in Afghanistan in 2001 and been ordered to return to Germany to carry out attacks.
Before being arrested in March last year, he was in the process of acquiring "chemical substances" to make bombs, the prosecutor's office said in a statement.
