Reported Terrorist Plot in Prague

(Prague, Czech Republic) Islamic extremists, suspiciously linked to a planned attack in Oslo, Norway, two weeks ago, plotted to murder dozens of Jews in Prague.

From Haaretz.com:
Islamic extremists planned to kidnap dozens of Jews in Prague and hold them hostage before murdering them, the daily Mlada Fronta Dnes reported on Friday.
According to Czech Chief Rabbi Ephraim Sidon, the central Prague Jerusalem Synagogue was the target. Intelligence sources say the terrorists planned to kidnap the Jews and make unreasonable demands followed by blowing up the building, killing everyone.

Armed guards were dispersed around buildings in the city after a security service warning of an imminent attack. Authorities are neither providing nor confirming any details.

Via Pirate's Cove which cites leftist blogosphere skepticism on the validity of the reporting. It's suggested the story was planted.
