'Beheading' Target Was British Soldier Wednesday January 31st   

British terrorists were planning to abduct, torture and behead a serving Muslim soldier in the British Army, Sky News has learned. The allegation follows the arrest of eight people in the Birmingham area this morning under the Terrorism Act.

Sources have told Sky News the man, who was in his 20s, would have been kidnapped, tortured and beheaded.

The whole episode would have been filmed and posted on the internet in a chilling echo of the execution of Ken Bigley, who was beheaded by insurgents in Iraq.

Sky News Foreign Affairs Editor, Tim Marshall, said the group consisted of "youngish" and older British men and a Pakistani.

"Some were British-born and some were Pakistani," Marshall said.

"They would have snatched an individual, probably at random off the street.

"The person they were planning to kidnap would not have to be famous. They could just be taken off the street and taken to a safe place.

"This is what the police are looking at."

He added: "Can you imagine the effect that would have in Britain?"

The man would have been made to plea to Tony Blair on camera to withdraw British troops from Iraq, The Sun claimed.

Police say they had tracked the alleged plot for as long as six months.

It was feared terrorists were poised to strike when police decided to swoop.

"One source said the plot was going on for six months," said Sky Crime Correspondent Martin Brunt.

"It was in the later stages of planning."

Construction worker Bigley was beheaded after being abducted by Iraqi insurgents and held for several weeks.

He was held in a cage in an orange jumpsuit before his execution was filmed and posted on the internet.

Heard that on the news, That pr1ck Tony Blair wants to get his finger out of his hole and put a complete stop to this madness, i dont care if the people who were going to commit these crimes were British muslims they should jail then deport them anyway. If these people are against the British then they dont deserve to live in Britian. :angry:
