The "Caliphate’s" Silence vs. Canberra’s Outcry: The Bondi Beach Operation Mystery

While the Australian government issues continuous statements confirming "ISIS" responsibility for the Bondi Beach attack in Sydney (December 14, 2025)—which resulted in 15 deaths—the latest "Harvest of Soldiers" (Al-Naba) infographic remains completely void of any reference to this operation, despite its perceived "strategic importance."

Geopolitical Observations: * Operational Disconnect: The organization focuses its statistics on "Core" and "Active Peripheral" provinces (West Africa, Central Africa, Syria, Iraq, and the Sahel), while ignoring external operations that Western governments attribute to them.

* Delayed Adoption Policy: The organization often avoids including "inspired" operations in its official weekly harvest unless they have confirmed a pledge of allegiance (Bay'ah) or a "will video," preferring to highlight the daily wars of attrition in Africa, which accounted for the vast majority of casualties in this issue (44 killed/wounded). Questions for the Reader: * Why does the Australian government insist on immediately attributing the operation to ISIS (based on flags found in the suspects' vehicle), while the organization refrains from mentioning it in its official harvest? Is it because he has also been pictured with a salafi preacher taking classes with him ? * Are we looking at "lone wolves" operating so independently that the central leadership lacks the details to include them, or are there security reasons preventing the organization from announcing it now?

*Is there a possibility that it was a revenge attack because of the atrocities that were committed in Gaza ?

*Does this silence serve the organization's narrative of exhausting the West's security apparatus without providing direct threads of evidence?
