Danish police have arrested several people on suspicion of planning a terrorist attack using explosives, security officials say.
The arrests were made late on Monday in the Copenhagen area, officials said.
It is unclear how many people were arrested or what were the targets they allegedly intended to attack. Denmark's contribution to the US-led military campaign in Iraq has prompted fears it could be targeted by terrorists.
The country also attracted the ire of Muslims worldwide after a Danish newspaper last year printed cartoons depicting the Prophet Muhammad. The suspects held on Monday had been under surveillance, Denmark's police intelligence agency said.
So, the cartoonists were “not” right?
ping!

Strange, in the account of the incident from the Danish authorities, there was no mention of anyone being ME or muslim. The BBC made that leap of faith. Not that they were wrong, it’s just that they are so hypocritical about all things PC, like all liberal media.
No they never mention the suspect’s backgrounds - this is ‘so they are ensured a fair trial’ apparently.
Maybe they are all Scottish Presbyterians.
Well, the head of the Danish Security Intelligence Service disclosed the info in #3 http://www.reuters.com/article/worldNews/idUSLAU43912220070904
They even have a web site in Arabic http://www.pet.dk/Arabisk.aspx
He declined to comment on the target of the attack and which country it was planned for.
Scharf said police believed they had foiled an act of terror with the arrests, which came after several months of surveillance.
"Our investigation has shown that some of the suspects had acquired materials to make explosives," he said, but declined to say whether explosives had been found.
It was in the operational phase..and they had contact with senior AQ leadership.
Yes, and it is more in #10 than just funny pictures.
It would seem so, or close to it.

Thanks AdmSmith.
Question to the BBC:
If "Iraq" is the issue, So what was the reason Al Qaeda planned attacking UK in 2001?
BBC News | MEDIA REPORTS | Al-Qaeda note suggests 'attack on London' Sunday, 16 December, [size=5][b][color=red]2001[/size][/b][/color], 16:08 GMT. Al-Qaeda note suggests 'attack on London' ... The planned attack is reported in both The Observer newspaper in London ... http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/monitoring/media_reports/1713557.stm
The house was evacuated while Danish police and explosives experts searched the apartment and removed sevaral boxes with material. Two of the suspects have been arrested while the rest will probably be released after interrogation and pending court hearings.
Have the newspapers disclosed anything about the Pakistani connection that I mentioned in #10 yet?
