Extract: A Melbourne "conspiracy theorist" who believes Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull is secretly Jewish and that Islamic State is an Israeli front has failed in a legal fight to get his gun licence back.

Michael Mazur, 72 and a Vietnam Veteran, had his firearms licence cancelled by Victoria Police earlier this year and his weapon confiscated after expressing extreme anti-Semitic views about Israel being responsible for various terrorist attacks, including the Bali bombings.

Mr Mazur had come to the attention of the Australian Federal Police after sending three emails to the Thai consulate in September 2015, stating that Israel was responsible for a bombing in Bangkok which killed 20 people.

During an interview with an AFP agent, Mr Mazur stood by his extreme views and went further, saying that Israel was behind all terrorism and bombings in the world, including the Port Arthur massacre and the Bali bombings.

"While Mr Mazur's views may distress or cause some in the community to feel threatened, Australia is a democracy and people are allowed to hold opinions and views that others might disagree with or that others might think go too far," Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal member Elisabeth Wentworth said.

"With some restraints, they are generally allowed to express their opinions and views. But not every person is allowed to own a firearm."
