...York City began the week with a drill involving 600 police, fire fighters and FBI agents responding to a mock attack by terrorists supposedly using deadly VX nerve gas, which Iraq has produced in vast quantities. The following day, in Fairfax, Va., a jury convicted Mir Aimal Kasi, a Pakistani, of assassinating two CIA employees in 1993. The day after that, Ramzi Ahmed Yousef, the "mastermind" of the World Trade Center bombing, and his driver were found guilty in a federal court in New York City...

It could have been a replay of the way Kasi killed two people and wounded three as they waited to make the turn into CIA headquarters one morning almost five years ago.

He faces charges on two counts of capital murder, three counts of assault and one count of illegal possession of a weapon. If convicted he could face the death penalty. Kansi allegedly killed...
