Boykin admonished himself....sort of. Boykin, in a statement issued by the Pentagon on Friday, apologized to those offended by his remarks but did not retract them. "I am neither a zealot nor an extremist. Only a soldier who has an abiding faith," said Boykin, deputy undersecretary of defense for intelligence and war-fighting support. "I do believe that radical extremists have tried to use Islam as a cause for attacks on America," he said. "As I have stated before, they are not true followers of Islam." "In my view they are simply terrorists, much like the so-called Christians of the white supremacy groups, or extremist (sic) of any faith," Boykin said.
