Leah Rabin is being weighed as a candidate to serve as Israel’s ambassador to the United Nations, two Israeli newspapers reported Tuesday. “If the post is offered to me seriously, I would consider it favorably,” the widow of assassinated Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin told the Israeli daily Yediot Achronot. Other candidates for the post are Center Party legislator and former Tel Aviv Mayor Roni Milo and Yehuda Lankri, a confidante of Foreign Minister David Levy.
