Your Danish Cartoons Hangover Update

This is pretty straight-forward today, but also fairly major. Four men will be tried in Denmark with crimes related to a terror plot to shoot up the offices of the Jyllands-Posten newspaper. It's that newspaper that published the caricatures of Muhammed that drove the original Danish Cartoons Controversy more than a half-decade ago now. This is a different group than those charged with similar crimes in Norway recently -- they were three Swedes (of an arrested four) living in Denmark, and conspirator based in Sweden. This marks the first time this kind of internationalist conspiracy to do harm has been tried in Denmark itself.
