Peanuts Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 It looks like there's only one attacker, hopefully this will be an isolated incident and there will be no follow-up attacks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zefrom Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 This is terrifying. To think that Sydney is a peaceful country, however it is not Sydney's fault though. Chances of them from ISIS? omg and a shotgun, not even a pistol. How did the Shotgun get through airport security, assuming the man was a foreigner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How did the Shotgun get through airport security, assuming the man was a foreigner smuggled in through a different source? i doubt something like a shotgun could go through security.

Gent♥ Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 I've been following this, I have a soft spot for the Aussies. The suspect has been identified as Man Haron Monis, an Iranian granted asylum in Australia. He appears to be acting alone and may have as many as 30 hostages, though 5 have already escaped. He's identifying with ISIS, but is not directly linked - hence acting alone. Also appears to be an amateur. Police negotiations are 'going well.' EDIT: Australian TV has JUST shown police storming the cafe. Fingers crossed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

♥Prof. Sugarcube♥ Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 BBC News has been covering it all day. 3 dead is... a lot better than it could have been. Thought experiment ONLY FOR GENT. What if I was in the Cafe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gent♥ Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Thought experiment ONLY FOR GENT. What if I was in the Cafe? I would've been floor-bound with a panic-attack all day until it blew over. And called you repeatedly as soon as I knew it had blown over. Thinking about it makes my stomach flip slightly. Fortunately you don't live in Sydney, and secondly are you sure this is a question you wanted answered publicly :3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
