Yet the appointment of Mike Herzog to the position of Ambassador to the United States of America just sounds like more of the typical "you scratch my back, I'll scratch yours" form of nepotism (it isn't classic nepotism, as he was not appointed by his brother the President of Israel Isaac Herzog, but it is the workaround nepotism where I hire or appoint your relative and you hire or appoint my relative)  in government.

Serve Israel well, in representing our interests in the US of A.

The truth is that ambassadorial appointments, I think in all or most countries, are pretty much always payback for some sort of loyalty or donations or other connections, so this appointment is less egregious than appointments in government positions, but still....
