This morning, the Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde APAN President Nasser Mashni appeared on Melbourne radio station 3AW to discuss with host Neil Mitchell palestinian flags being flown at Federation Square with a vigil – something APAN organized.
Once again, Mashni could not bring himself to simply and unequivocally condemn Hamas. Instead what we got was a lot of “Israel started it”, “Israel is worse,” ‘what about the palestinians?” – not to mention some ridiculous claims like “‘palestinians’ can also include Jews” and we can all live together in one state (after this Hamas massacre, no less).
Not surprisingly, Neil Mitchell gets increasingly frustrated.

Of course, we know what Mashni really thinks about Hamas and their massacre. I am just surprised he is not pretending better.
