Help wanted: UN peacekeeping force in the Golan seeks replacement monitors for Austrian and possibly Filipino personnel.

No Russians — nationals from the U.N. Security Council’s five permanent members are ineligible.

A history of shooting off your mouth about Israel needing to take risks for peace a big plus. You talked the talk — now walk the walk.
