ISIS terrorists take Australian cafe customers hostage

You wonder if the Aussie security forces messed up on this - if a camera man can get a clear shot why didn't the snipers?



hard to say I guess split seconds. Just like here though another piece of filth a) allowed into the country & b) given bail – when will the self-serving politicians ever learn?

I heard on the news that Lindt cafe used to be a bank, so that glass may even be bullet resistant.

Probably a a tall story Fred I doubt if it would resist a .50 cal and the banks would only have toughened glass in front of the cashiers. I suspect the authorities/security forces messed up and were looking for some sort of bottling appeasment - it was only one terrorist not multiples creeping around. Tragically this resulted in the deaths of honest, brave & decent people.
