Australia, meet APAN - the Muslim Brotherhood advocacy network to Australia, with direct links to Mahmoud Abbas, the PA, and PLO in the West Bank. The PLO and PA mission in Canberra, NZ, and the Pacific Islands’ own documents show that APAN -Australia Palestine Advocacy Network, was set up in 2011 as part of their mission to the region, with a direct link to Mahmoud Abbas, who personally helped set it up, and that they hold at least three meetings a year to align advocacy strategy and share information. APAN lists Palestine Action Group Sydney on its own site as one of its local groups and works with it on advocacy and protests. It also works with politicians, influencers, unions, teachers and other groups and individuals across Australia. Including Senator Thorpe, and Payman, and the Greens.

🚨🚨 The Palestinian Authority and PLO Delegation to Australia is in clear violation of Article 41 of the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations, which requires diplomats not to interfere in the internal affairs of the receiving state. Its 2023 Annual Report contains a dedicated Section 4 titled “Domestic Political Context: Australia and Aotearoa New Zealand.” This section provides a detailed six-page account of the Indigenous Voice to Parliament referendum. It records national and state-by-state results, offers explanations for the failure (poor public understanding, fears about land, media issues, limited grassroots Indigenous consultation, party opposition, and a preference for a treaty over an advisory body), and quotes figures such as Senator Lidia Thorpe criticising the Voice as a colonial mechanism. The report explicitly links the failed Voice and the Labor government’s First Nations foreign policy to potential recognition of Palestinian statehood, framing both as matters of self-determination. The Delegation’s own earlier papers record its facilitating role in the creation of the Australia Palestine Advocacy Network (APAN) in April 2011 and a formalised consultative relationship under which APAN’s leaders meet with Delegation officials thrice a year to share information and increase the strategic efficacy of APAN’s work. APAN’s materials acknowledge unceded Aboriginal land and explicitly connect Palestinian and Indigenous Australian experiences of dispossession, colonisation, and the struggle for self-determination. It has produced joint Aboriginal–Palestinian flag pins and frames the expectation that Muslims assimilate as inherently racist while calling for strong Islamophobia laws. These activities, together with the organisation of large pro-Palestine protests on Australian streets, bridges, and university campuses, form part of a coordinated effort that treats contested Australian domestic questions as parallel to the Palestinian cause. Deep public analysis of Australian constitutional referendums, or the framing of those debates as analogous to one’s own national claims, goes well beyond ordinary diplomatic reporting. Embassy and delegation annual reports typically confine themselves to bilateral contacts, cultural events, trade, consular services, and high-level meetings. Lengthy political post-mortems of Australian referendums are uncommon and disruptive to Australia’s social cohesion. The same reports also praise “martyrs,” a term used for those killed while engaged in violence in the name of their cause. These activities occur with open support from Australian politicians, principally from Labor and the Greens, though not exclusively. Sussan Ley, while a senior Liberal, maintained a longstanding public association with Palestinian advocacy events and visits organised in conjunction with the Delegation and APAN. The pattern of engagement extends into journalism, unions, the public service, and universities, including circles associated with Gareth Evans at the Australian National University and Bob Carr at the University of Sydney. It is time to close this so-called embassy of a non-existing country and a terror organisation, and to scrutinise the collaboration of its supporters across every sector.
