NEW YORK, Sept 20 (Reuters) - Federal prosecutors on Tuesday charged the Afghan-born man suspected of weekend bombings in New York and New Jersey with 10 counts including use of weapons of mass destruction, portraying him as a jihadist who begged for martyrdom and praised Osama bin Laden.

The suspect, Ahmad Khan Rahami, bought bomb components on eBay, made a video of himself testing out homemade explosives, and kept a journal expressing outrage at the U.S. slaughter of mujahideen in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and Palestine, federal officials allege.

Inshallah (God willing), the sounds of bombs will be heard in the streets. Gun shots to your police. Death to your oppression, Rahami, who came to the United States at age 7, wrote in a journal he was carrying when arrested.

Rahami was apprehended on Monday in Linden, New Jersey, after a shootout with police that left him with multiple gunshot wounds. He was listed in critical but stable condition on Tuesday, and police had not yet been able to interview him in depth, New York Police Commissioner James ONeill said.

Federal prosecutors from separate districts in New York and New Jersey charged him with four and six counts respectively.
