At the AJC, it’s Clinton

 I wondered yesterday which senior Obama administration official would join Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak at the American Jewish Committee’s annual gala April 29.

It’s official: Hillary Rodham Clinton, the secretary of state.

Meantime, James Jones, the national security adviser, is addressing the Washington Institute for Near East Policy’s Soref gala dinner tomorrow night; at the same day and time, Susan Rice, the U.N. envoy, is speaking to the Arab American Institute.

T.S. Eliot, that unregenerate anti-Semite, would be glad: April truly is the cruelest month. For Jewish reporters, anyway.
