Australia’s first far-left terrorism investigation and the rise of political violence
Waleed Aly on what makes political violence terrorism, and whether this attack is a sign of something much bigger taking hold.
In the early hours of July 5 last year, a group of masked people allegedly broke into a defence manufacturer in Melbourne’s north-east.
Three cars were set alight, the building was vandalised and later, a video message appeared online with a masked man claiming responsibility – warning workers involved in the weapons supply chain that they were being watched.
Waleed Aly has a PhD in global terrorism and says the message left behind is crucial to understanding what happened and what might happen next.
