US ambassador

It’s been a month since Indyk passed away. He will be sorely missed by his many colleagues and students in the United States and Israel. May his memory be a blessing.

“There are risks in both the Right and the Left, of erosion on the margins, that only makes it more important for there to be bipartisan support,” Lew told an economic conference at Reichman U.

Herzog's tenure is expected to run out in four months, despite expressing interest in remaining in his position, according to the report.

Former US Ambassador Thomas Nides stands to lend the company his valuable experience, which could give the Israeli company a leg up on its competition.

While still under the status of ambassador-designate, Lew hit the ground running by participating with Blinken in a meeting of Israel’s war cabinet.

The US ambassador to Israel under president Donald Trump, David Friedman was instrumental in the historic Abraham Accords and moving the US embassy to Jerusalem. He remains deeply influential today.

Where the US ambassador can and should be involved is on matters that improve the Israeli-US relationship and are in line with the challenges facing the two countries.

Both men exemplify qualities of proud Americans and committed Zionists, men who gave up promising careers in the US, and their American citizenship, to live in and work for the State of Israel.

What made Nides special, however, was that during his tenure here he made himself approachable and encouraged people to communicate with him.

"My family misses me," Nides said as the reason behind his decision to step down.
