APAN President Nasser Mashni wants everyone to believe all the bad behavior within his movement comes from undercover Zionists!
Pro-Palestinian protesters were advised by police to change their route at Sunday’s rally as a pro-Israel group marched at the same time, raising fears a clash between the two groups could turn ugly.
Australia Palestine Advocacy Network president Nasser Mashni said police had advised its members not to wear masks, and claimed “Zionist agitators” were among them. “The police can ask you to remove face coverings today,” Mr Mashni said, as chants of “shame” echoed from the crowd of hundreds. “Last week we had Zionist agitators from within us.
“There are Zionists within us that are trying to unmerge the good name and character of our movement … Zionism is a movement of hate, Zionism is a movement of racism, Zionism is a movement of exclusion, Zionism is a movement of genocide.”
I haven’t seen the footage but I am guessing Mashni said this with a straight face.
So I am assuming Mashni wants us to believe those who set fire to the Adass Israel synagogue are undercover Zionists?
And those who chanted “F*** the Jews” and “Gas the Jews” (or Where’s the Jews) at Sydney Opera House?
And all those who descended on the Jewish suburb of Caulfield?
And Mohammad Sharab, on charges of kidnapping and assault?
And Laura Allam, on the same charges?
And accused serial abuser Rohan Irvine?
And all those at his protests showing support for terror groups like Hamas and Hizbullah?
And all those who mourned Yahye Sinwar after the arch terrorist was vaporized?
And those who doxxed the Jewish creatives Whatsapp group?
Heck, given Mashni himself has shown support for terrorism, made antisemitic comments, and has convictions for kidnap, violence and threatening behavior, I guess he wants us to believe he is a Zionist too.
Alternatively, Mashni should own up to the fact that he and his “movement” contain some of the shittiest people out there.
For them, vile behavior is a feature, not a bug… and certainly not the result of “Zionist agitators.”
