Netanyahu lashes out and Tony Burke fires back
Update: 2025-08-20
Description
“Strength is not measured by how many people you can blow up or how many children you can leave hungry.”
That’s the sharp response from Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke, after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu labelled Anthony Albanese a “weak politician who betrayed Israel and abandoned Australia’s Jews". As the war of words escalates, what are the implications of the deteriorating relationship?
Meanwhile, day two of the Economic Reform Roundtable is underway in Canberra - but the Prime Minister isn't in attendance.
Patricia Karvelas and David Speers break it all down on Politics Now.
