Just anxious about what the hell is in those back packs. Noting the head bands, and what goes in in Hamas, and videos from Syria doesn't leave that much to the imagination ..

Whatever happened to the Imam being sent in?

Wouldn't trust Channel7 an inch.

Still feels like this is just bogan muslims and not some big plot.


This is what I think as well. A lot of stuff that actual terrorists would have done by now hasn't been done yet.


What would actual terrorists do? Blow something up?

They're scaring people and stirring up the growing anti-Isalmic movement in Australia. Even if they aren't affiliated with ISIS or another organization, they're doing their job.

I hope that the hostages make it out safely. With any luck this will be an isolated incident by amateurs who can be reasoned with to de-escalate the situation.

Poor hostages. And no matter what the outcome of this, poor Muslims who are going to be blamed for this. Hopefully Australians whatever the resolution of this will respond to it the way the Canadians did after their 'Islamic' terror.

i don't think it's too early if the joke is lighthearted, not bigoted and doesn't demean or insult the people at risk. humor is always an important part of coping IMO.

thanks to the people posting updates about this, very interested as a foreigner but not too sure where to get my info

That number is not confirmed, it would seem to be speculation.

Nice that didn't take long.

Perhaps when they got to the "will you ever hold up a cafe full of people to prove a silly point" question on their immigration forms they ticked the box that read 'no'. Devious bastards.
