Laura Rozen at ForeignPolicy.com reports that there won’t be a new U.S. ambassador to Israel — because the man currently in the post is staying on:
A State Department source suggested that the current U.S. ambassador to Israel, James B. Cunningham, is likely to stay in the job. He said the deputy chief of mission at the U.S. embassy in Jordan, Daniel Rubenstein, is expected to become the consul general and chief of mission of the U.S. consulate in Jerusalem.
