The suspected jihadist holding up to 15 people hostage in a Sydney cafe is an Iranian murder and sex assault suspect known for sending hate mail to the families of Australian soldiers killed overseas, police confirmed.

As the standoff entered its 15th hour, with police and news crews surrounding the shop as frightened hostages looked out through the front window, police identified Man Haron Monis as the gunman holding captives inside Lindt Chocolat Cafe. His identity was known early on to police and media alike, but was only released for the record by police sources as night fell on Sydney with the nation transfixed on the televised scene.

Iowahawk/David Burge retweeted a Jim Geraghty tweet re: the flag:

“After last night’s extensive debate about whether the hostage-taker had an “official” lSIS flag, he asks for an ISIS flag.”

“known for sending hate mail to the families of Australian soldiers killed overseas, police confirmed.”

THAT was the chance to fix the whole problem. It’s time to apply the “broken glass” theory to moslems.

As long as muslims all over the world are killing and murdering innocent civilized folk, there should be a ban on all muslims entering any civilized countries. Once they figure out how to become SOMEWHAT peaceful in their shitholes, then they can come here.

We pulled ourselves up out of the dark ages, the muslims tied weights to their legs and pouted in the desert. Little baby culture that is unwilling to grow up and face reality.

Tell him to surrender... right after shooting him in the head.

We should be thankful for these Madmen of Islam. Without them we’d be getting softer, but with them Americans, especially Millenials, are more conservative.

In other news, numerous “moderate” Muslim imams & spokesmen across the World appear at microphone & TV cameras to condemn this horror by radical Islamists.

My bad, there is no condemnation and “moderate” is a figment of our western leftists’ imaginations.

Islam is a war plan.
