They are indeed. Fernandez has apologized...His statement is on Michelle Malkin's blog just now... State Department weasel apologizes By Michelle Malkin · October 22, 2006 10:53 PM Alberto Fernandez: Not sorry enough US State Department mouthpiece Alberto Fernandez issued a statement tonight saying he's sorry for condemning American "arrogance and stupidity" in Iraq: "Upon reading the transcript of my appearance on Al-Jazeera, I realized that I seriously misspoke by using the phrase 'there has been arrogance and stupidity' by the U.S. in Iraq," said Fernandez, director of public diplomacy in State's Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs. "This represents neither my views nor those of the State Department," Fernandez added. "I apologize." Okay. But like I said, it was where and how he chose to criticize Iraq policy--in Arabic on the terrorist propaganda network, al Jazeera, right after a terrorist spokesman called on jihadis to bring America to its knees. Will the State Department allow Fernandez to continue appearing? How about a review of his past appearances and publication of transcripts/translations of his interviews on Terror TV? And where the hell is the apology for his suck-up remarks about jihadi "spiritual leader" and suicide bomb preacher Yusuf al Qaradawi--whom he praised as "a respected scholar and religious leader worthy of the deepest respect?"
