Report: Israel’s #2 US Embassy Official Was Never Suspended Despite Press Leak

Ben Smith at Politico Reports regarding Israel’s Dan Arbe: Back in October, the diplomatic community was roiled by the news that a top Israeli Embassy official had been suspended for, reportedly, leaking information to the U.S. press.

So a reader was surprised to notice today that the official has a letter to the editor of the Washington Post, here.

And in fact, an embassy official tells me, “He has not been suspended and his successor is arriving next month.”
