Diplomatic Roots
Richard Holbrooke, son
of German Jews, is the
U.S. nominee for the
U.N.
MATTHEW DORF
Special to The Jewish. News
ichard Holbrooke only
spent a year as the U.S.
ambassador to Germany,
but he tried to make sure
that his hosts would not forget this
son of German Jews.
Visitors to Holbrooke's official resi-
dence were greeted by an ambassador
who proudly displayed a photo of his
grandfather, a Jewish businessman, in
his World War I Germany army uni-
form.
"I show it to German visitors as a
symbol of what they lost," Holbrooke
told the New York Times in a 1994
interview.
Four years and three jobs later,
Holbrooke is Clinton's nominee to
serve as the American ambassador to
the United Nations.
Raised in the United States after his
parents and grandfather fled Germany
in the 1930s, Holbrooke is slated to
join Clinton's inner circle. Many are
speculating that this posting is his try-
out for the top diplomatic job, as sec-
retary of state, if Vice President Al
Gore wins the 2000 presidential elec-
tion.
If confirmed by the Senate, Hol-
brooke, 57, would replace Bill
Richardson, whom Clinton tapped to
become his secretary of energy.
Although Holbrooke remains a rel-
ative unknown when it comes to Mid-
dle East issues, he will not be setting
policy at the United Nations. Much of
his direction will come from the State
Department. The United Nations has
remained relatively quiet the last cou-
ple of years on the peace process front,
but the Palestinians are beginning
once again to use the world body to
try to pressure Israel to make conces-
sions in the peace process.
Last week, the Palestine Liberation
Organization mission in New York
pushed a General Assembly vote to
change its status from observer to
nearly that of a state. The United
States tried to avert such a move.
At other U.N. bodies, the PLO is
trying to convene the signatories to
the human rights convention to
