A chilling miscellany of possible attacks on Canada -- bombings, an armed assault on Parliament and even the beheading of Prime Minister Stephen Harper -- emerged yesterday as the alleged architects of a massive terrorist plot made their second appearance in court.
Ten men and five youths faced a packed courtroom as new details came to light about what the group was allegedly plotting before they were rounded up last Friday in what's been billed as Canada's largest post-9/11 counter-terrorism operation.
The most hair-raising of them all came from Gary Batasar, the lawyer for 25-year-old restaurant worker Steven Chand, as he described a synopsis of allegations from the Crown that also included taking politicians hostage and blowing up the CBC's Toronto headquarters.
"There's an allegation that my client personally indicated that he wanted to behead the prime minister of Canada," Batasar told a crush of media outside the courthouse once the proceedings were over.
Chand, bearded with shoulder-length hair, blew a kiss to supporters in the courtroom as he was led away in shackles and handcuffs.

beheading is a bit much...
I'd settle for them just cutting out his tongue, so I'd never have to hear his smug voice again
