TURKEY9 charged in NATO summit bomb plot A Turkish court May 3 charged nine suspected members of a group linked to al-Qaeda with plotting to bomb the NATO summit scheduled for next month in Istanbul. Turkey's CNN-Turk television news channel said at least three of the suspects had been planning a suicide bomb attack against U.S. President George W. Bush, who will be among dozens of Western leaders expected to attend the June 28-29 gathering. The court in the northwestern city of Bursa charged the nine suspects with "membership in an outlawed organization." They face up to 10 years in prison if convicted.
