A man who claims to “fix planes” at an air force base has escaped arrest at Sydney’s mass pro-Palestine rally despite screaming “get the f-ing Jews wiped out” in a wild rambling diatribe at Sunday’s event.

NSW Police have since confirmed with The Daily Telegraph they are “investigating comments made by an attendee at a pro-Palestine rally in the CBD” with inquiries ongoing.

Video shows the man yelling the inflammatory phrases at the rally with police watching on, in footage posted on X (formerly Twitter) by user Chriscoveries.

“Get the f-ing Jews wiped out,” the man yelled at the protest, with another man walking up to him and warning “that language is not acceptable”.

“I don’t care, as a Muslim I have a right to say,” the man yelled back.

A policeman then approaches the man and warns him “it is an offence to swear in public” before clarifying “you’re free to go sir”.

The man states he’ll go back to Richmond Airport, understood to be the Royal Australian Air Force base, where he claims: “I fix planes”.

In a parting diatribe, the man appears to get former Prime Minister Scott Morrison mixed up with his successor Anthony Albanese.

“Australia has become a nanny state. What are the Aussies doing … Sco Mo … Albo? You’re siding with the Jews,” he cries.

The same police officer warns again “we don’t want a confrontation or an argument or anything like that” before instructing the man to move on.

Another man at the protest, wearing a red shirt emblazoned with the Communist hammer and sickle and brandishing a sign ‘All Israeli troops and settlers out of the West Bank and Gaza’, professed his love for designated terrorist groups Hamas and Hezbollah.

“I love Hamas and Hezbollah in this present war against Israel … as a Communist,” the man said in video captured at the scene.

He also implored China to get involved in the war on the side of Palestine, before again praising Hamas and regional power Iran in a rambling diatribe.

The man then goes on to declare Aussies should fight against their own “political elite”.

“We want China, who’s the only major power not involved in a major war … to get involved in Palestine,” he said.

“As a Communist person, I’m happy to say that I like Hamas and Iran.

“What can we do in Australia to fight against Israeli terror? Fight against the Australian political elite who hold hands with the Israeli government.”

Police confirmed there was no arrests made during the event and there were no reported injuries, with more than 6000 attendees estimated to be at the event.

The protest, was in stark contrast to the chaotic scenes at Sydney Opera House, which led Premier Minns to apologise to the Jewish community, saying the government “failed” to make them feel safe on Monday after the Opera House was lit up blue and white in solidarity for Israel.

It followed the Hamas attacks on Israel last Saturday, which killed hundreds and has since escalated to war on the Gaza Strip.
