Josh Paul, a former State Department official who resigned last month to protest continued arms sales to Israel amid its bombardment of Gaza, wrote in a viral letter that one-sided U.S. support for Israel is “shortsighted,” “destructive” and “contradictory.” Media reports say many others inside the State Department are equally frustrated with the U.S. role in the conflict.

In this case, it’s because his official title is just way too long for a headline.
The official, Josh Paul, was the director of congressional and public affairs at the State Department’s Bureau of Political-Military Affairs

I agree. If you can’t give the position and title then who knows who the joker is. They mention blinkens title fine.
