A 6 May 2004 White House 'Global Message' summarizing the 5 May Al Arabiya and Alhurra interviews (georgewbush-whitehouse.archives.gov/news/releases/2004/05/text/20040506-1.html) reads: 'These actions of a few people do not reflect the nature of the men and women who serve our country.' That text is a White House summary, not a transcript.
