        If we ignore you will you go away. Do not make up terror stuff when there is no evidence. We have enough ratbags claiming we will all be killed by them without MSM getting on the band wagon

        @chriskkenny you happily ignore the fact that the US Govt perpetrated 9/11 on their own people in order to start a 'Holy War' against Islam, and now we live with those consequences everyday. We have the ability to live in peace but our leaders & ppl like you refuse to allow that.

        Er, no they didn't. They didn't need the excuse. They weren't smart enough to carry it out or keep it a secret. They had enough reason to invade Afghanistan because of other attacks already.

        I think you need to look more closely at the facts, and the lack of transparency about the attacks. So much evidence contradicts the 'official' story, and this comes from a Govt that still accepts JFK was killed by a 'lone wolf' gunman, yeah sure! Open your eyes & mind

        You do realise that Australia and America have separate governments? You should seek help for your paranoia, fearing monsters hiding in every shadow.

        Possibly. The main evidence for that is the writing is too coherent.

        Bee thinks the “US Govt perpetrated 9/11 on their own people in order to start a 'Holy War' against Islam”; must be depressing for Al Queda to constantly have their best work attributed to others!

        It's the ultimate paradox that requires a government so insanely dumb it would create a false flag attack to declare war when there was enough prior justification the week before, but so insanely smart to carry it out, keep it quiet and fool everyone.

        This was a drug user attack (again). This was a mentally ill idiot attack (again) ... but we spend $MILLIONS of terrorism, and spying on our own people ... but how much on REALLY battling drug, and mental health issues ... ??

        Being mentally ill & simultaneously distressed by treatment of (mostly) Muslim asylum seekers & Western attacks on Islamic countries, doesn't make one a "terrorist" , just still mentally ill. Stop inciting divisive hatreds & advocate for mental health funding

        Not at all, but your publication pretends the issue is much larger than what it really is. If you really cared about Australians, you’d be asking “do people believe if we ignore domestic violence it will go away?”

        ABC 'journalists' can't work out a motive for the Flinders Street attack even after the suspect - an Afghan refugee - explicitly says why he did it. Hear his reasons at 2:26. Incidentally, the ABC doesn't mention the refugee bit.https://youtu.be/qL615v7IpTE

        It isn't the ABC ,or journalists' job to 'work out a motive. Their job is to collate ,then report the #factsofaneventasitunfolded. Leave the psychoanalis to uhumm...a trained psychoanalist

        That's precisely my point - they didn't have to "work out a motive". The motive was explicitly stated; but, ironically, as so-called reporters, they refused to report it. Instead, they came up with their own more palatable explanation.https://youtu.be/CBruw7WC-x8
