The alleged terror plot that was foiled in New York City proves that Congress needs to increase anti-terror funding to New York and other areas that suffered a significant reduction a few years ago, some homeland security advocates said Thursday.

Four men were arrested Wednesday night after a nearly yearlong undercover operation by the FBI and New York City Police Department. The suspects, all American citizens, allegedly plotted to wage a holy war by bombing two New York City synagogues and shooting down military planes in upstate New York.

The four men were said to be motivated by anger about Muslim casualties in Afghanistan and Pakistan because of U.S.-led military operations there.

"They stated that they wanted to commit jihad," said New York Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly, adding that he believed the men knew each other through prison.

BERLIN (AP) — More than 270 police officers were injured in this year's May Day riots in the German capital, prompting criticism Saturday of Berlin security officials and calls for more officers.

Though the majority of the 273 officers suffered only minor injuries Friday, 14 were badly enough hurt that they will need to take time off work, said Berlin police chief Dieter Glietsch. He did not have more specifics.

Ali Saleh Kahlah al-Marri, 43, faces as many as 15 years in prison when he is sentenced this summer. But he could serve far less time if a judge gives him credit for time served -- nearly two years awaiting trial in a fraud case and 5 1/2 additional years the Qatari national spent without charges in a U.S. naval brig as the sole "enemy combatant" on U.S. soil.

Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. rejected efforts by defense attorneys to reduce Marri's prison time, a Justice Department official said, and prosecutors will argue against Marri getting credit for his brig time at the sentencing hearing in July.

In a statement, the attorney general said the deal "reflects what we can achieve when we have faith in our criminal justice ...
