Biden's Jerusalem Envoy: A Friend Who "Won't Go Easy on Israel"
(Times of Israel) Jacob Magid - Thomas Nides, President Biden's nominee as ambassador to Israel, has been described as both a friend of Israel and as an envoy who will likely be evenhanded and "won't go easy" on the Jewish state. During the Obama administration, he worked to oppose congressional efforts to limit U.S. support for the Palestinian refugee agency (UNWRA) and UNESCO. Nides is currently managing director and vice chairman of Morgan Stanley investment bank. He is married to Virginia Carpenter Moseley, senior vice president of newsgathering at CNN.
