The U.S. State Department confirms that the 12 terrorism suspects arrested in the United Kingdom last week had targeted the American Embassy in London.

British authorities arrested 12 men Dec. 20 for suspicion of terrorism. Few details of a possible plot emerged until a court hearing in London today for the nine men still in custody. A British police statement released earlier in the day did not provide a list of targets but said the men had conspired to cause "explosions of a nature likely to endanger life or cause serious injury to property."

The BBC reported that prosecutors told the court that the nine men had plotted bomb attacks on the American Embassy and the London Stock Exchange in the days before Christmas. The men were also said to have targeted unnamed political and religious figures.

More from the Telegraph:

Police were said to have found a list of six sites, including the full postal address of the Stock Exchange, Boris Johnson’s London mayoral office and the US embassy.

Defendants were seen studying the tower of Big Ben, before inspecting Westminster Abbey, the London Eye and the Church of Scientology.

Misleading title haha, I thought we were going to try and invade the US! :confused:

Awwwww

Church of Scientology

Should have let them attack that nobody cares about it , made a deal.......

Ok i joke it good to see it been stopped
Still don't get why people thinking using a bomb going to help your cause. Controlling the west by having it resources and money under your control would do much more good
Just saying......

Never get why people feel the need to attack stuff like this. Not going to do much good :/ only effects the short term.

I'm sure the US will find Bin-Laden, they'll begin searching thoroughly as soon as they've found Santa Claus

Then why haven't found bin laden yet.....

Because he very good at hide and seek
And the US players are noobs at seeking

Or
Because finding him going to do nothing to end this war may make it last longer.

Terrorists win.

They haven't found bin Laden yet because they are still looking for Santa Claus

Because it would involve trespassing into another country. I bet we have the technology to find him, but political/diplomatic bullshit probably impedes our progress.

How the hell do they always get caught? I'm glad they did but seriously wtf. If I was a terrorist I'd just act alone so I don't get snitched.
