Show Notes

A 20-year-old man, Jason Joseph Michaels, has been arrested in Western Australia and charged with five offences related to an alleged terror plot targeting WA Parliament House, police headquarters and Muslim places of worship. The Bindoon resident was allegedly motivated by white supremacist ideology, with authorities discovering firearms and a manifesto at his home. The arrest follows increased concern about young men becoming radicalised through encrypted messaging platforms like Telegram, with terrorism experts noting a significant rise in extremist behaviour in the post-pandemic environment.
