just watching on tv now.

With respect, this is not racism at all, rather, I'm trying to point out that hatred is being fueled in both directions, TPTB what us to kill each other, I wish both side could see they're being played, not much hope by the looks of things.

I was feeling that way earlier too. Now I'm a bit worried he's waiting for a soapbox and afterwards will do something horrendous. If that bandana was translated correctly I'm not liking the word sacrifice.

We can confirm he wanted a hostage to speak to someone live on the air (glad that didn't happen). He also allegedly wanted to make contact with the PM.

I'm still pretty worried. Trying to think positive.

One news link has a cell phone video that's very hard to see, that supposedly has a hostage making a cut throat gesture with her thumb, and it looks as if the hostage taker was behind her. But again, the video is very blurry, so it's hard to see.

Thumb Across Throat

The daily telegraph is not worth wiping your ass with.

My ass is pretty glorious, but really not picky.

1 got out of the fire door, the other from the frontdoor.

3 people got out.

seems like the 2 people that got out of the front door were 1 elderly and young man

The one from the firedoor was a man with an apron.

Channel 7 reporting one worker wearing lindt uniform & 2others have moved out quickly. Lets hope they all get out safely.

These Muslim leaders keep saying that it is their young people that are going and joining these Extreme Jihadists they even said it today, but this gunman is in his 40's so whats their excuse now.

Well obviously not all terrorists will be young people. A lot of them are influenced by older radical individuals.

Im watching 7 too, im wondering is that door (the side door) a door directly in to the Cafe??? Or is there another between that and getting in there?

a reply to: Domo1

Haha!

Well, in that case there are many colourful newspapers here you can use

Great to hear that some people have got out of the cafe!!

a reply to: daaskapital

I know that, but thats what they said, it was posted a few pages back by someone and they specifically said their young muslims, and they were talking about this but he isn't young.

Two or three hostages just run out!! yessss hopefully they have more info...

So trippy watching news there. It's cold and dark here.

I basically grew up with the interwebs but I still am amazed.

Nevermind.

More people are reported to be leaving, or getting ready to leave, the cafe.

Perhaps the Police managed to negotiate with the terrorist.
