A Queens man pleaded guilty Tuesday to 10 charges connected with a plan to blow up synagogues and churches in Manhattan last year.

Ahmed Ferhani, 27, admitted to conspiring to attack the biggest synagogue in Manhattan as well as churches in order to send a message of violence to non-Muslims.

Ferhani was arrested in May 2011 in an NYPD sting operation.
