I think it depends on how he apologized that some Iraqis got humiliated. If he did it like Clinton or Carter --- fake tears and hand wringing it would be very wrong. If he quietly, sincerely, and with dignity apologized then it's okay. I think most of us really wish those involved hadn't pulled those stunts just like we think a lot of fraternity and high school hazings go way too far.

Saw it three times. It gets better each time. It could not have been more dignified and was framed in the context of a personal "I'm sorry" to the King of Jordan. It could be interpreted as a apology to Iraq, but that is a matter of their interpretation which hopefully is positive and understood.
