I believe the official reason is that he lied to the FBI about it before it happened, saying he didn't know anything about any Al-Qaeda plots.

Seems he 'fessed up to it during the trial, if you believe him. I have to say, his testimony reminded me a little of that guy, Colin something or other, who shot up a train in or around New York and then represented himself in court. Anyone remember that? He was some kind of wacko.
