And finally, tonight to a bit of news.

Pro-Assad site Al-Masdar suspends editor Paul Antonopoulos after he was shown to be active on Nazi site StormFront — Twitter, Avi Asher-Schaprio, 28 April, 2017

Well, well, well.

Media Watch last month highlighted the role of a couple of Australians in defending President Assad's murderous Syrian regime.

Former Sydney academic Paul Antonopoulos was one of them.

Claiming in this story in Al Masdar News that the chemical attack on Khan Sheikhoun, which killed around 90 people, was a pantomime and a fake.

Antonopoulous also tweeted on similar lines:

Even the guys fixing my floor today wore better masks than the White Helmets who were dealing with chemicals in #Idlib. — Twitter, @oulosp, 5 April, 2017

This weekend Antonopoulos was stood down and then forced to resign from his job as Al Masdar News's deputy editor after it was revealed he had posted race hate comments 10 years ago on a pro-Nazi website called Storm Front. Here is one of many:

I think a White Australia is pretty much long gone now with the influx of Chinese, Koreans and Sudanese. I believe all Whites should migrate to Victoria and Tasmania ... Let the immigrants in other states kill each other, overdose, rape each other etc etc. Don't get me started on the Jews! — Stormfront Thread, 4 October, 2007

We asked Antonopoulos for comment. He has not responded.

Meanwhile, French intelligence has added its voice to claims that the attack did involve Sarin and that the gas came from Syrian government stockpiles.
