The Aussies have deployed their crack "cops with guns" unit. Reports can not be confirmed that the cops actually KNOW how to use the guns and that they weren't just stood up to fit in with other countries police forces that are armed

Pretty sure Australia has had one of the more active domestic counter-terrorism programs in recent years. They've made a ton of arrests in the last year.

Not quite, they were just advised by the shows educational advisor (no really), that kids wouldn't grasp a Vietnam vet with PTSD...so best to ignore it entirely.

This is currently done by a rotating SASR squadron, also the AFP has several teams consisting of former special operations types using loaned Australian Army assets. So pretty much the go to guys for this thing are either current active service hardcore badarses, or former active service hardcore badarses.

SASR maintains TAG West. 2CDO maintains TAG East. SASR has nothing to do with the current situation, on a side note.

Choose 1 target for your politically motivated attack:

- Parliament
- News Station
- National Bank

Well arguably the Lindt shop is the least likely to have an armed guard and is a soft target with a lot of people. Similar to that mall in Kenya. Parliament attacks require state funding to pull off usually (see Pakistan).
