When Australia Palestine Advocacy Network (APAN President) Nasser Mashni is on Australian television, he speaks softly with concern for his “Jewish brothers and sisters”, claims he grieves for Jewish loss of life, understands what we are going through, and hopes for peace. He also claims that there were just “10 or 15 people” who chanted “F*** the Jews” and “Gas the Jews” at the infamous Sydney protest days after the Hamas atrocities of October 7th.
Of course, you should already know by now that this is an act, and when Mashni is at protests with his fellow Israel-haters and antisemites, he shows his true self, an angry guy in a keffiyeh (aka terror scarf) speaking about ‘resistance.’ Not that he is has been able to unequivocally condemn Hamas on television even once.
Mashni will claim he is not antisemitic, even though – as I have posted in the past – he does not take antisemitism very seriously at all:
Now Mashni has gotten really sloppy, retweeting an unequivocally antisemitic tweet by Norman Finkelstein:
Claiming a “Jewish billionaire class” is doing something nefarious is right out of the Jew-hating handbook.
By the way, Finkelstein tweeted this right after the three college presidents could not bring themselves to say yes to the question does “specifically calling for the genocide of Jews … constitute[d] bullying or harassment?” – which one would think is a reasonable question and also a reasonable reason for Jewish donors to pull funds from the universities and demand the Presidents resign.
Meanwhile, Mashni has posted this video, standing in front of a ‘Love’ sign, while decrying so called “anti-palestinian” and “anti-Arab racism”:
Australians fighting in the IDF must be investigated and prosecuted if they have participated in war crimes!

Incidentally, he is painting as a terrorist heroic IDF soldier Lior Sivan (who I personally knew and who died saving lives), while painting as “innocent civilians” the Lebanese man and woman who were killed at the house of his brother, a confirmed Hizbullah terrorist (and who may have been aiding Hizbullah themselves and who almost certainly knew the brother was with Hizbullah).
