Hillary Clinton in Turkey this weekend

US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is in Turkey this weekend, where she is speaking at this year's annual conference of the ATC (American Turkish Council) (Hat Tip: Will). Among the things Clinton may want to raise with her hosts are Prime Minister Erdogan's interview with CNN's Fareed Zakaria last weekend, in which Erdogan claimed that Israel has killed 'hundreds of thousands of Palestinians' (Hat Tip: Joshua I), and the upcoming trial of a cartoonist for publishing in a humor magazine a cartoon that denounces Islam (Hat Tip: Ronald G).

But don't worry. I'm sure Hillary won't offend her hosts by speaking so bluntly.
