Woke up to the awful news of the deaths, this is just awful! I'll be buying some Lindt chocolate today in their memory. And may Man Monis have EVERYTHING at the book thrown at him.
I'm pretty sure Monis is dead.
Well, at least he can't harm anyone else now. My thoughts and prayers go to the families and friends of the deceased hostages, the surviving hostages, injured or non-injured, and their families and friends. Even if the hostages escaped injury, they'd still be extremely traumatised by being held hostage.
