New Mideast Point Man is Facilitator, Not Negotiator
(New York Jewish Week) - James D. Besser The administration's choice as its road map point man, career diplomat John Wolf, has limited Mideast experience, and his selection reflects a White House decision to move cautiously and incrementally. Wolf, who is Jewish, is a 23-year State Department veteran who has been posted in Australia, Vietnam, Greece, and Pakistan. Already, close to 10 CIA officials are on the ground and Wolf is expected to oversee their efforts to make sure both parties comply with the steps outlined in the road map.
