In a stunning but not surprising twist, Israel revoked visas for Australian representatives to the Palestinian Authority, stirring the diplomatic pot after Prime Minister Anthony Albanese declared recognition of a Palestinian state. Finance Minister Katy Gallagher lamented the "disappointing decision" but confessed the government was 'not surprised,' given "similar steps taken against other countries." Adding to the spicy tale, Israel refused a visa for a far-right Israeli parliament member just the day before, turning visas into the latest geopolitical accessory nobody wanted to wear. More talk, more diplomacy? Sure, but first, better visa luck.
