“You think they make this shit up? It’s all in the book. Their f***ing book. The only book they ever read. They read it all the time. They never stop. They’re there for one reason and one reason only. To die for the caliphate and usher in a world without infidels.

An eyewitness said he did. And he recently converted to Islam. I’m not saying this was pure jihad, there were other factors – but Islamic ideology legitimises this kind of senseless and random violence.

Ah, good, Crikey – because that’s a completely impartial news source and not biased at all, ever…

Of course Crikey is not unbiased – it is explicitly a left-leaning commentary site. But it offers well-researched news, and many of its regular writers provide well-informed, well argued opinion from a left perspective (yes it does exist) that differs greatly from anything you’ll see in the Fairfax/ABC “bubble”- that’s why they’re valuable (and only one of many diverse sources that I read regularly).
I offered the above article because it does indeed contain more facts and a broader perspective on this story (particularly re the role of the media) than your post has so far provided. No doubt your readers are capable of forming their own conclusions about bias.
Feel free to follow up with an equally well-researched and thoughtful alternative view, and I’ll read it with equal interest.
