Foreign Affairs Minister Penny Wong has once again expressed her famous ‘concern’ with Israel after the nation confirmed they won’t pursue any criminal charges against those who killed Australian aid worker Zomi Frankcom and her colleagues.
Wong rejected calls to expel the ambassador, explaining that he ‘got the message’ after a meeting they had where she ramped up Australia’s pressure against Israel but not giving him extra cake to take home.
“Sometimes you have to take a strong stance,” she said, “we hope this makes our position on Israel killing our aid workers clear.”
Sources suggest Wong didn’t stop there, with the coffee she offered him being packet coffee this time instead of sending out a staffer to do a coffee run.
