#1 Hopefully this "journalist" will eventually be able to write a book about his many long years as a guest of the state in one of their finer penal institutions. To be published posthumously.

#3 State authorities always tend to get these things wrong. Raiding the home of a journalist is jusdt going to make him a martyr (without much suffering) and lends credibility to what he writes.

"he wrote that Australian spies were targeting key nations, including Japan, China and North and South Korea"

All you do is a snark remark that he forgot New Zealand and let the matter rest.

What are spies supposed to do anyway? Spying on Tasmanian devils?
