Other since-deleted posts from Ali’s account appeared to deny the Holocaust, while one shared image from a far-right Nazi-apologist website claimed one of the French police officers shot dead in the 2015 Paris terrorist attacks was “a Mossad agent live and well in Buenos Aires … a crypto-Jew in the service of Israeli intelligence”.
