Police have now left the Sydney Opera House which was evacuated for an unspecified reason, my colleague Oliver Milman reports.

A police spokeswoman said they were not currently responding to anything at the opera house although it is still currently sealed off. Some contractors and performers have been allowed back in

like I said, funny how its only the followers of a violent religion that that end up being terrorists
implying that such actions are actually condoned by Islam

not to mention as with ur previous example of Buddhist extremists not existing, they do exist in other countries (see Burma). Also there is Christian extremism in China (eastern lightning). None of these actions are actually condoned by the majority of the followers of those respective religions, just like how the majority of Muslims don't support terrorism, because they know it has no actual religious basis and religion is simply being used as a tool to manipulate people into achieving sociopolitical aims.

I don't have the time nor do i care to waste energy arguing with u about Islamic theology, the evidence is plain to see that the vast majority of Muslims condemn terrorists and the vast majority of Muslims would obviously have an idea of what their religion teaches. If you want to judge an entire religion or people based on a minority then go ahead, your choice to be a bigot and your choice to do exactly what the terrorists want in being an over-reactionary fool who decides to further antagonise a community that already has to deal with shit from bigots as well as a disgusting extremist minority ruining the name of their religion

While major retailers such as Myer and Woolworths said their stores in Sydney's CBD were trading as normal, David Jones is believed to have closed the doors of its flagship Elizabeth St store - which is less than two blocks from the besieged Lindt Cafe - and customers and staff have left the building.
