Featuring Jacob Lew in a favorable light on front page Jewish Press Aug 18, 2023 and in an online article. Why?

Here is a link to Jewish Press's online article:

Biden Mulls Appointment of Jack Lew as Next Ambassador to Israel
https://www.jewishpress.com/news/us-news/biden-mulls-appointment-of-jack-lew-as-next-ambassador-to-israel/2023/08/13/?utm_source=webpushr&utm_medium=push&utm_campaign=651541

Not much information here other that Lew is an Orthodox Jew and that the Senate Republicans might block Biden's nominations for various Ambassador positions.

Perhaps there are good reasons to block Lew's nomination. See ZOA article below.

After honoring Hakeem Jeffries, supporter of the Iran Deal in 2015, albeit in a very deceitful manner, on the front cover of the Jewish Press a week ago after he was honored by the BPJCC, the Jewish Press is now featuring Former Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew on the front cover.

Mentioning that Jacob Lew is "frum", and a leading candidate to become the next US Ambassador to Israel... while leaving out some minor details like Lew pushing the Iran Deal for Obama in 2015 is remiss.

Doesn't the Jewish Press understand the betrayal of the Biden Administration at this point in time by pushing an unofficial Deal with Iran who is dangerously crossing on the nuclear threshold?

Being "frum" and an orthodox Jew will be taken as a positive endorsement among the majority of uninformed Jewish Press readership and puts Jacob Lew in a positive light. Yet he too, by pushing an Iran Deal under this administration is part of America's betrayal to Israel and why would we want to support his nomination?

Here is a more comprehensive picture of what such an endorsement entails.

Don’t Let Jack Lew Become U.S. Ambassador to Israel – ZOA’s Mort Klein’s Jerusalem Post Op-Ed
August 21, 2023
Appointing Jack Lew, who has a history of insulting Benjamin Netanyahu and a harmful-to-Israel record, will only further harm the U.S.-Israel relationship, at a time when what it needs is healing.
