Via Steve Aftergood's Secrecy News, GulfNews.com reports that Bahrain's next ambassador to Washington will be a Jewish woman. Huda Ezra Ebrahim Nonoo "'is Bahrain's nominee for the post and this is of course very good news for Bahrain's deep-rooted values of tolerance and openness,' said Faisal Fouladh of the Shura Council, the upper house of Bahrain's legislature.
