DECEMBER 15, 2014 10:46AM
HOSTAGES are being held inside a cafe in Sydney's Martin Place.
THE faces of customers and workers have been seen pressed up against a shop
window of the Lindt Chocolat Cafe.
An Islamic flag - black with white writing on it - has been held up to the glass.
In a chilling drama unfolding in the city centre, Martin Place has been shut
down and scores of police are surrounding the cafe.
Workers in nearby buildings, including the Seven Network, have been ordered
to evacuate the area.
NSW government offices, including Premier Mike Baird's, are also in the vicinity.
Two women, whose faces are pressed up against the window, appear to be
holding up the flag.
Police have closed off Martin Place between Macquarie and Elizabeth Streets,
and Martin Place train station has been cleared.
Police have cordoned off the area to about 150m and a special police
operations unit is outside the building.
Media reports suggest there may be up to a dozen hostages inside the cafe.
Journalist Chris Kenny, who was in the shop about 20 minutes before the siege
began, said he understood the automatic glass sliding doors had been disabled.
"I did speak to a couple of people who saw a bit more of this unfold than I
did," he said.
"One woman said she tried to go into the shop just after I came out with my
takeaway coffee but the doors wouldn't open.
"So obviously whoever is doing this has disabled the automatic glass sliding
doors to stop anyone else going in and she said immediately she could see
there was a weapon.
"She mentioned it being taken out of a blue bag and people were straight away
asked to put up their hands."
Mr Baird's office has been locked down.

- Hostages have been forced to hold an Islamic flag with white writing on it

11.10am: Airservices Australia has just said that airspace had not been
closed over Sydney..
11.03am: Aaron Zelin, an Islamic expert in Washington, has tweeted
clarification about the flag in the Lindt window.
This is flag currently held in Sydney window, a garden-variety Islamist flag.
Therefore, doesn’t tell us anything yet
10:47 AM - 15 Dec 2014
11.00am: There is speculation that the operation around Martin Place may be a
terror-related. Earlier today, two people were arrested on suspected terror
offences in north west Sydney.
10.58am: Steve Creedy writes: The Australian has been told that airspace
above Sydney CBD has been closed so that police helicopters can operate.
There may be disruption to aircraft operating into and out of Sydney Airport.
10.57am: Chris Kenny said he understood the automatic glass sliding doors had

“I did speak to a couple of people who saw a bit more of this unfold than I

“One woman said she tried to go into the shop just after I came out with my
takeaway coffee but the doors wouldn’t open.
“So obviously whoever is doing this has disabled the automatic glass sliding

“She mentioned it being taken out of a blue bag and people were straight away
asked to put up their hands.”
NSW Premier Mike Baird’s office has been locked down.
10.51am:Mark Schliebs clarifies the identity of the flag. He writes: The flag
at Martin Place appears to a generic “Shahada” flag - featuring the
expression of the Islamic faith - and not the one commonly used by Islamic State.
The use Shahada flag, and not one of a specific organisation, means the
gunmen could be sympathetic to any group or are simply acting as individuals.
10.50am: Channel 7 is reporting that the man may also be carrying explosives.
10.47am: Good point made by The Australian’s Mark Coultan..

The Yazidis Of Iraq: Give Them Guns Not Refugee Visas

 
As exactly as we said in our leaflets: the
 Liberal government will ”‘stop the boats 
to fly the planes”. 

Now that the Islamist terrorists in Iraq are
 threatening a possible genocide against 

the Yazidi group, the Liberals have opted
 to bring 4400 of them to Australia. 

Australia First Party suggests these people
be given guns, not refugee visas. 

Let us be direct. The only moral obligation
 (sic) that is worth talking about is the fact
 that our country was complicit in the falsely
 based invasion of Iraq in 2003.  The troika
 of George Bush, Tony Blair and 
John Howard, the ‘coalition of the willing’,
invaded Iraq to position the so-called 
‘Western Alliance’ there to serve Israel 
and to obtain oil wealth, destabilizing the
 Middle East to their advantage in these 
objects. 

The excuse that there were weapons of
mass destruction in Iraq and a link between
 Saddam Hussein’s Ba’athist state and 
Al Qaeda – was a lie. It is now known to 
have been a Big Lie. 

But in overthrowing the Ba’athists, 
the Western Alliance opened up the
 gates to chaos.

 

The original Ba’athist state would never
 have tolerated Islamist extremism and
whatever may be said of the dictator 
Saddam Hussein, he was their sworn 
enemy.

 

Right now, Australia can and should
 arm the Yazidis to fight their way 
towards autonomy in Iraq. There are
easily 100,000 Yazidis capable of
taking up arms against the Islamists
 of ‘Islamic State’. 

Bringing any of them to Australia is false
 morality from people who have no 
morality. Ironically, it brings thousands
close to a new crop of Islamic extremists
 breeding up and growing up in Australian
 suburbs, men beyond reason or hope,
 Islamist fanatics certain to bring terrorism
 to us all.

 

As the father of the true Australian
 immigration program after 1945, 
Arthur Calwell put it: emigration is
 never the answer to the problems
 in a country in the non European world. 
The issues are too vast. The best solution
 is revolutionary change.

 

There is no doubting the barbarity of the
 Islamic State group in Syria and Iraq. 
However, these human-garbage were
formerly trained by the CIA to fight 
Syria’s President Assad. Now the US 
politicians and Tony Abbott cry crocodile
tears about their terrorism. In reality, the
Islamic State are useful. They deflect 
attention away from Israeli crime in 
Gaza and provide new excuses to 
interfere in Middle East politics.

 

So: Abbott wants 4000 of the Yazidis
 arriving here to welfare and housing
 and so on. Such generosity. An 
atonement for a war the Liberals
caused? And animmediate problem
for which the only true solution is to
 arm the Yazidis and then butt out?

 

How long before Australians want a 
total ‘out’ of the politics of the 
Middle East?

Inverbracki To Shut: Libs Bow To People’s demands

For years now, a silent campaign in the Adelaide Hills has produced a popular resentment against the continued use of the Inverbrackie Refugee Detention Centre. 

It will now be closed. The Liberal government has bowed to a popular demand. 

However, the Libs practise their deceit. As Australia First has stated over and over, the Liberals sought to ‘Stop the boats, to fly the planes’. Refugees will now be processed off shore. This is called ‘the right way’. 

For Australia First, there is no right way, no wrong way – just no way.
