Of course, I bet you he doesn't want to talk to him he just wants to be on the air to broadcast his message. Which would be a terrible thing to do.

[QUOTE=Starlight 456;46713730]Please for the love of fuck be sarcastic[/QUOTE] I didnt think I needed to preface it by saying it was a sarcastic remark... I guess I was wrong. Damn people, you really think anyone in the right mind would think its a good idea to waltz on in with a standard loadout.
With all due concerns noted, I hope the cafe doesn't hurt their sales.

40-50 people being held hostage... holy shit.
[QUOTE=Bradyns;46713826]40-50 people being held hostage... holy shit.[/QUOTE] That's a rough estimate based on figures provided by the Lindt company though, right?

[QUOTE=PieClock;46713752]They just said a woman was seen pouring something like water. Hopefully it wasn't fuel or something.[/QUOTE] Maybe it was water, maybe it was gasoline, maybe it was liquid cancerdeath. Who knows, just speculating.
[QUOTE=FlandersNed;46713782][t]http://i.imgur.com/A06DFGE.jpg[/t] That's in the 7 office across from the cafe.[/QUOTE] Isn't it discouraged to show police positions on live TV during a hostage situation? I mean, what if they have access to the broadcast from within?

People are too busy complaining about ideologies and being retarded so I must ask: How many hostage takers are there, just the one?

[QUOTE=Zillamaster55;46713853]People are too busy complaining about ideologies and being retarded so I must ask: How many hostage takers are there, just the one?[/QUOTE] Around 1-2, maybe more.

The person the BBC is talking to (from a high risk security company) keeps calling it the IS flag. Is it possible that it actually is? [QUOTE=_Axel;46713851]Isn't it discouraged to show police positions on live TV during a hostage situation? I mean, what if they have access to the broadcast from within?[/QUOTE] They can probably see that themselves, without the TV. If the police really wanted it off air they would cut the power to the area. It some situations the media have helped, like the Iranian embassy siege the media was kind of used to distract people.

[QUOTE=_Axel;46713851]Isn't it discouraged to show police positions on live TV during a hostage situation? I mean, what if they have access to the broadcast from within?[/QUOTE] Could've been worse. They kept showing that same 3 second clip over and over again.
