Where's Baracko?

Hillary Clinton is coming to Israel next week. Rick Richman reports that the trip's announcement prompted this humorous exchange at the State Department.
QUESTION: For every single country she’s going to, it lists the cities that she’s visiting, except for Israel. So this is a semi-trick question: Is she going to be visiting the capital of Israel?

MR. VENTRELL: The Secretary will be in Israel and she will meet with Israeli officials.

QUESTION: Where?

MR. VENTRELL: At this point, I don’t know where those meetings are going to be, but obviously as we get closer, the team will have more information.

QUESTION: You don’t know if they’ll be in Jerusalem or if they will be in Tel Aviv?

MR. VENTRELL: We can presume that she will visit multiple sites in Israel on this trip.
They just can’t bring themselves to say that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel, can they?
No, they can't.

But where's Baracko?

No mystery! He doesn't want his passport to have an Israeli stamp.
