There has to be an agreement between two or more persons to commit the act. Once there is an agreement to commit the act, the crime of conspiracy to commit the act is complete, at least in Virginia. No act in furtherance of the conspiracy needs to be taken. By the way, aiding and abetting a person who commits a crime against the United States, or soliciting or procuring a person to do that, is also punishable as if that person was a principal. So everyone who took part in the plan to attack the Pentagon is also subject to the death penalty under US law. I think that only applies to people who did it on US soil. I don't believe our courts have jurisdiction over cases committed outside our territorial limits.
