Bob Carr's texts to Gillard reveal 'extraordinary' influence pro-Israel lobby had on former PM
"The public should know how foreign policy gets made, especially when it appears the prime minister is being heavily lobbied by one interest group with a stake in Middle East policy."
In diary entries Mr Carr reveals just how deep his division with Ms Gillard went. He complains that Ms Gillard would not even let him criticise Israeli West Bank settlements due to her fear it would anger Australia's pro-Israel lobby – a reference to the Melbourne-based Australia/Israel & Jewish Affairs Council – which Mr Carr says had a direct line into the prime minister's office.
"So, we can't even 'express concern' without complaint," Mr Carr writes. "This lobby must fight every inch."
