UK Plane Threat: Who is the Threat?

The BBC again refuses to impugn the religion of peace. In its description of the UK terror plot that Scotland Yard disrupted, it never once mentions that the potential terrorists were Muslims:

Police had spoken to a "good number of community leaders to make them aware that a major operation was under way," he added.

According to BBC sources the "principal characters" suspected of being involved in the plot were British-born. Arrests were made in High Wycombe, London and Birmingham.

Hmm. Maybe someone like Paul McCartney or Colin Montgomerie are the suspected targets, but I highly doubt it. I believe these "community leaders" are imams and leading Muslim figures, while the "principal characters" are all Muslims. Can this news reporting get any more ridiculous?

*Update*
Sorry - the PC police are now using the terms "British-born Asian men." Aah - so they could be Thai, Japanese, Vietnamese, Chinese, Singaporeans,... Just tell us what we already know - these terrorists are Middle Eastern Muslims. Neville Chamberlain is cheering from the heavens.
