Since this is unlikely to get much play out of Australia, I have posted a series of news stories rounding up the disruption of what looks at this point like a thwarted al-Qaeda/Lashkar-e-Taiba joint operation over at Rantburg that you can start reading here and just keep scrolling down until you reach the end of the "Down Under" section.
In unrelated news, via Alphabet City I see that al-Qaeda has confirmed the capture of Mustafa Setmariam Nasar.
