Mossad Chief Roman Gofman is reportedly seeking to appoint a candidate from the high-tech and publicist world to head the organization's Strategy Division. The candidate, who has no relevant security background and has never served in the Mossad, is known for appearing on television as a commentator. This position is equivalent to a major general in the IDF.
