PORT OF SPAIN (Reuters) - A judge in Trinidad on Monday ordered
three suspects extradited to the United States to face trial on
charges they plotted to blow up New York's John F. Kennedy
International Airport.

The three were arrested in Trinidad and were among four men
charged in June with conspiring to blow up the airport's jet-fuel
tanks and part of the 40-mile pipeline feeding them.

Chief Magistrate Sherman McNicolls ruled at a brief hearing that
there was enough evidence to justify extraditing Kareem Ibrahim
of Trinidad and Abdul Kadir and Abdel Nur of Guyana.

U.S. prosecutors have described the suspects as Islamist extremists
plotting an attack they hoped would prove more destructive than the
September 11 attacks on New York's World Trade Center in 2001.
