Man pleads guilty to displaying Nazi symbol during Australian pro-Palestinian rally

A MAN pleaded guilty today to displaying a Nazi symbol during a pro-Palestinian rally in Sydney in early October.
Alan Yazbek was photographed at the October 6 rally in Sydney’s central business district holding a sign that replaced the Star of David on the Israeli flag with a blue swastika, accompanied by the words “stop Nazi Israel.”
Mr Yazbek was also photographed holding another sign in the green and yellow colours associated with Hezbollah, a designated terrorist organisation in Australia, with the words “our boys in green and gold will win.”
