The great divide

The Pope, <b>by issuing a historic apology, </b>has tapped a groundswell of rage. Many Christians are reading the irrational outburst following his Regensburg address in the language of the 14th century Byzantine emperor whom the Pontiff quoted. They wonder whether the time has come to stand up to the blackmail of fundamentalists which is harming the cause of ordinary Muslims and, of course, global peace

Pope did not apologize for what he said, he said he felt sorry muslims feel that way and/or for their actions later on.. Didn't he?
