Two men are dead and three police officers injured after a siege in Melbourne.
The jihadi called a TV newsroom to claim he was acting for “IS and al-Qaeda.”

“Terrorism is one line of inquiry.”

Geniuses.

The gunman responsible for the act was well-known to terror police in Victoria, with investigations ongoing about the link of terror to the attack. Same old story.

UPDATE: Now it has been revealed that Khayre was previously charged, and acquitted, with planning a suicide attack against Sydney’s Holsworthy army barracks in 2009, the Herald Sun reports.

A gunman who took a woman hostage and is suspected of killing another man called up a TV newsroom during the siege to claim: ‘This is for IS, this is for al-Qaeda’.

And it has now been revealed that the man who carried out Monday’s attack was out on parole, having been rated a low-risk of reoffending by counter terrorism police.

‘Severe gunfire’ rang out inside ‘The Buckingham’ serviced apartments on Bay Street, in the affluent east Melbourne suburb of Brighton, shortly after 6pm on Monday.

The hostage situation came to an end after the gunman stepped out of a hotel room and fired at officers – injuring three – before himself being killed in the exchange.

But moments before police shot the man dead, he called Channel 7’s newsroom to claim he was carrying out a terrorist attack on behalf of Islamic State and al-Qaeda.

As he made the chilling phone call at around 5.41pm, a woman, believed to be the female hostage, was heard screaming desperately in the background.

At 5.40pm, some 20 minutes before he died, the gunman called up a TV newsroom to claim: ‘This is for IS, this is for al-Qaeda’ (pictured)

 The siege lasted more than an hour-and-a-half inside ‘The Buckingham’ serviced apartments on the corner of the Nepean Hwy and Bay St in Brighton, in south-east Melbourne (pictured)

Monday’s incident began with locals reporting an ‘explosion’ inside the serviced apartments. Police believe this was the sounds of the gunman shooting dead his first victim

 The expert bomb disposal teams entered ‘The Buckingham’ before 9pm to deal with a package inside

The gunman responsible for the act was well known to terror police in Victoria, with investigations ongoing about the link of terror to the attack.

‘Terrorism is one line of inquiry,’ Victoria police deputy commissioner Andrew Crisp said.

‘We’re extremely concerned about terrorism… we’re very attuned to the threat of terrorism here in Melbourne.’

Mr Crisp said when police arrived at the serviced apartments not long after 4:00pm they found a man dead on the floor of the foyer.

‘A short time later a phone call was made to triple-zero by a female stating there was a hostage situation and a deceased male,’ he said.

The female hostage were both employees of ‘The Buckingham’, but police are not yet sure if there is any relationship between them and the gunman.

While the gunman’s identity is yet to be released, they have confirmed the phone call to Channel Seven came from a mobile belonging to him.

‘That’s all part of the investigation… we will certainly be working with Channel 7 in relation to that phone call,’ Mr Crisp said.

Its like all rights and freedom are to be given to Muslims and non-muslims do not have any rights as dhimmis ! And Left/liberal pro-jihadi loons allow it !

Infidels do not even have right to protest against crimes committed by Muslims . If they dare try it they get harassed,lose their jobs, jailed or killed http://bit.ly/2r6F3cp

while jihadis continue to kill .

This murdering criminally insane muslim was know to have terrorist sympathies, a criminal record yet still was rated as a “low risk of re-offending” by what criteria? Pinky finger oath? The only way a muslim should be paroled out of a civilized country’s penal system is to be deported.

In Australia Muslims run organized crime in both Sydney and Melbourne and whole suburbs are muslim ghettoes. Sure the illegals are under control but the legal Muslims still flood in. Australia has no politician with a backbone and only Hanson has a clue.

Since 1996, when the short-sighted liberal Australian government banned semi-auto rifles, shotguns and pump action shotguns, gun-crime rates have skyrocketed against Australian citizens unable to defend themselves.

In Austrailia as of 2015:
Murders committed with guns have increased by 19%.
Home invasions with guns have increased by 21%.
Assaults committed with guns have increased by 28%.
Armed robberies skyrocketed have increased by 69%.
And of course, the retrogressive muslam jihadis desparate to get laid in nervana know they can attack Aussies with impunity because none can fight back.

Here in the U.S., abdul and his homies know in exactly which liberal states people can’t fight back, and in exactly which conservative states they could get their muzzzie butts killed-back on a moment’s notice. Many of us remain on guard with concealed carry licenses, ready to react to primitive jihadi mongrels any time it’s required.

“Never trust a government that doesn’t trust its own citizens with guns.” ~ Benjamin Franklin
“Guard with jealous attention the public liberty. Suspect everyone who approaches that jewel. Unfortunately, nothing will preserve it but downright force. Whenever you give up that force, you are ruined.” ~ Patrick Henry
“The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government.” ~ Thomas Jefferson

“I will get the NRA shut down for good if I become president. If we can ban handguns, we will do it.” ~ Slithery Hillary Clinton – August 8, 2015

Just keep on giving intolerant muslim scum extra chances, until you all learn the hard way

Good thing you Aussies ‘cleaned up’ all those civilian weapons–You sure don’t want any help from the oppressed citizens, better to let the scum off all the cops

Liberalism has caused whole nations and civilizations to either be destroyed or ultimately collapsed. Look back into the history of the rise and fall of civilizations and see what you find. You might be surprised at what really caused those nations to collapse or be conquered and destroyed. That Imam there in Australia who said he thought there was a Muslim Holocaust coming ! Think maybe he was right do you??? I’ll bet he’s right wanna bet???
