Mentally ill British man pleads guilty to US terrorism charges
[Ynet] A mentally ill British man pleaded guilty on Monday to US terrorism charges and conspiring with radical London holy man Abu Hamza al-Masri to set up a jihadist training camp in Oregon in 1999.

Haroon Aswat, 40, entered his plea in Manhattan federal court as part of an agreement with government prosecutors. Defense lawyer Peter Quijano had disclosed the outline of the deal in the court earlier this month, saying it would resolve the case ahead of a June 1 trial date. Under questioning from US District Judge Katherine Forrest before pleading guilty, the soft-spoken Aswat said he had suffered from symptoms of schizophrenia for the last 20 years and was currently being treated for the disorder. He was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia in 2008 while being held at a high-security psychiatric hospital in England, according to court documents.
