AUSTRALIA-SIEGE-CONFLICT

A police officer takes a behind a truck during an operation outo end a siege in a cafe in the central business district of Sydney on December 16, 2014. His motives are a mystery and his acts described as random and deranged, but the gunman who took a Sydney cafe full of terrified people hostage still scored a propaganda coup for Islamic State jihadists. Bearing a black flag often associated with the IS group, he created precisely the sort of lone-wolf attack they have urged from their followers abroad -- replete with bomb threats, hostages and panic in a major Western city.
