Looks like it might be just one islamic terrorist

They think 10 staff and about 30 customers being held hostage.

He is using a girl as a shield (brave fella hey!)

7.62mm sniper round to the head is what is needed

BREAKING AUSTRALIA UPDATE:
--- NSW police commissioner Andrew Scipione on the flag that was put up in the window of the cafe:
"Again, it’s a flag that we’ve had people looking at. We’re trying to work out what it stands for but at this stage it’s probably best that I don’t take that any further. We’re working with our partner agencies to better determine what it is we’re dealing with there.
Scipione says there is no confirmation the siege is related to terrorism."
THIS WHOLE THING IS A DARN JOKE! IF YOUR NOT GOING TO CALL IT WHAT IT IS THEN YOU WILL NEVER DEFEAT IT!

BREAKING AUSTRALIA UPDATE:
--- A man has told the Daily Telegraph he bumped into the gunman outside of the Lindt cafe and the gunman threatened to “shoot him too”:
Craig Stoker told the newspaper:
He was wearing a black T-shirt with white writing on it and a headband and carrying a blue bag.
The bag bumped into me and there was something hard in it. I said ‘watch where you are ++++ing going’.
“He turned round and said ‘do you want me to shoot you too?.’ I looked into his eyes and they were crazy,” said Mr Stoker, a father of four from Eastlakes. “I was pretty freaked out.”
Interestingly, Stoker told the Daily Telegraph the man was with two other who were dressed similarly. So far we have only had confirmation of one offender.

BREAKING AUSTRALIA UPDATE:
--- People seen running out of Lindt cafe
It appears three people have fled from the Lindt cafe. One staff member and what appears to be two customers were seen running from the cafe while police stood out the front with weapons drawn.
--- It is not clear if the three people - who we believe to be hostages - were freed or escaped from the Lindt cafe. They ran out of a side door where heavily armed police were and hid behind the police.

It's over, 3 dead; 4 injured. Iranian ‘Sheik’ Man Haron Monis responsible (and dead).

THE manager of the Lindt cafe who was fatally shot in the Martin Place siege is being praised as a hero, responsible for allowing others trapped in the cafe to escape.

Tori Johnson, 34, was wrestling a gun from hostage-taker Man Haron Monis when he was killed.

It is understood the cafe manager decided to take action when the gunman began to doze off after the siege had been ongoing for 17 hours.

He lunged at the hostage-taker’s weapon, allowing others to flee.

He was one of two hostages killed in the siege, with 38-year-old lawyer Katrina Dawson also fatally shot.
