Pope Apologizes to Muslims

I think, anyway:

Benedict told Muslims on Saturday he was sorry they had found his speech on Islam offensive, expressing his respect for their faith and hoping they would understand the ``true sense'' of his words.

``The Holy Father is very sorry that some passages of his speech may have sounded offensive to the sensibilities of Muslim believers,'' Vatican Secretary of State Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone said in a statement.

Is he sorry for what he said, or sorry that they found it offensive? It's a big difference and it isn't clear to me which it is. I guess we will wait and see what the Muslim reaction is. I still wonder what he was thinking when he used that obscure 14th century quote.
