In this exclusive interview, former Australian Foreign Minister, the Hon. Bob Carr reveals the deep underlying influence of the Israeli lobby in Australian politics – and how it has long shaped Canberra’s stance on Israel–Palestine.
Once a co-founder of the Labor Friends of Israel with Bob Hawke in 1977, Carr has undergone a dramatic transformation – from being hailed in Tel Aviv as an “honourable gentile” to now becoming one of the loudest critics of Israel’s brutality in Gaza.

Credit where credit is due I guess. For such a trivial and small nation they've done what really no one else has in a surprisingly short timespan. I can only imagine other people in the intelligence world are quite jealous of their effectiveness in infiltrating multiple nations.

At least in the regard of infiltration and manipulation they may actually be correct. They've pulled off what other intelligence agencies have wet dreams about and with far fewer resources and time.
