Good take on the Dept of State. Another reason is that career DoS people get postings to 23 Muslims states an there's only 1 Israel. DoS staff posted to foreign countries tend to become more like the country of their posting in thinking than Americans. In effect, these DoS staffers become Arabists when they return home and see the U.S.-Arab relations through this prism. It's not rocket science to inderstan why Israel's supporters at DoS are outnumbered 23 to 1.

Infantile diplomats, assistant diplomats and other State Department personnel serving overseas in our embassies have long been known for tending to “go native” and to advocate for the nation they are posted too. I can’t imagine the Russians and Chinese allowing this nonsense. Plus State is ultra-liberal and full of gays and lesbians. In fact the Federale government in DC and even Congressional staffers has a very high percentage of gays and lezzies. They love working those jobs and getting domestic partner benefits etc etc etc
