Britain foils terror, beheading plot; 9 held

9 arrested in terror plot BIRMINGHAM, England — Counterterrorism police arrested nine men in an alleged kidnapping plot today — a plan that reportedly involved torturing and beheading a British Muslim soldier and broadcasting the killing on the Internet.
A ninth person was arrested just before police briefed reporters. The first group of arrests took place in the morning.
"The threat of terrorism has been growing over the years," David Shaw, of the West Midlands Police, said in announcing the arrest.
Birmingham has been the site of several major terror raids in the past two years, including a plot uncovered in the summer that involved several suspects planning to use liquid explosives to blow up as many as 10 flights between Britain and the United States.
