This week (Tuesday night) [Australian] Treasurer Wayne Swan spoke at UIA (United Israel Appeal) and explained that Australia and Israel would “always be great friends”. He went on that “Australia and Israel will always be great friends – even if questions do arise between us from time to time as they have in recent weeks. What matters is that two great friends can get through such times, with lessons learnt.”
