I was appalled at hearing that too. I know it happens alot with State agencies not alerting victims and their families when a felon is being released from prison, but you'd think the State Dept. would at least notify the family of a victim of a terrorist act. Our State Dept. doesn't seem to be acting in our best interest. I had hoped that Condi would get it squared away once she took over.
I guess the State Dept. is full of too many Armitages...don't like the Bush Administration..so won't do anything but bring it grief and bad press.
