New Jersey man indicted on charges he supported Hezbollah by scouting possible targets for an attack.

A New Jersey man was indicted Thursday on charges he supported Hezbollah by scouting possible targets for an attack.

According to the indictment, Saab joined Hezbollah in 1996 in Lebanon where he observed and reported on the movements of Israeli troops. He trained to handle and fire an AK-47, an M16 and other weapons. He also was trained to construct explosive devices, with the federal records showing diagrams of bombs he had built.

Federal prosecutors said he continued to receive training in Lebanon and surveilled"dozens" of locations in New York City, including the New York Stock Exchange, U.N. building, Statue of Liberty, Rockefeller Center and local airports, tunnels and bridges. Saab also conducted similar scouting operations in Washington, D.C., and Boston, among other cities. Those targets included Fenway Park and the Prudential Center in Boston and the U.S. Capitol and Lincoln Memorial in Washington.
