Anybody arrested or charged protesting against war criminal & president of the terrorist state of Israel Herzog - my law firm will represent you pro-bono.
He is the president of a terrorist state committing a holocaust the same way Hitler did and our despicable PM honours and invites him to our country. Sickening and unforgivable. #IsraeliNazis #FreePalestine #auspol
This is the monster our PM Albo has seen fit to invite to Australia in February - Isaac Herzog, president of the terrorist state of israel. Here he is signing bombs about to be dropped on thousands of little children. #IsraeliNazis #PalestinianHolocaust #auspol
