GCIS INTELLIGENCE UPDATE: COPENHAGEN, Denmark -- Accused terrorists planned to cut the throats of reporters at a Danish newspaper that printed Mohammed cartoons, police wiretaps reveal.

The men hoped to kill as many people as possible at Jyllands-Posten within 20 minutes, recordings made by the Danish security service PET and published Monday in the Ekstra Bladet newspaper show.

The three men traveled from Sweden to Denmark Dec. 29 and met near Copenhagen to plot the attack, authorities said.

During a prayer, one of them said, "When the unfaithful are gathered, tie them up and cut their throats," the report said.

They were later arrested and PET found automatic weapons, silencers and heavy tape in the apartment. (read full report)
