Qassim al-Rimi, commander of al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, said in a video posted on extremist websites that the attackers were warned in advance not to enter the hospital within the complex or a place for prayer there. But he said one fighter did.
"Now we acknowledge our mistake and guilt," Rimi said in a video released late Saturday by al-Qaeda's media arm, al-Mallahem. "We offer our apology and condolences to the victims' families. We accept full responsibility for what happened in the hospital and will pay blood money for the victims' families."
The apology seemed prompted by Yemen state television's earlier broadcast of a video showing a gunman attacking doctors and other hospital staff. Several al-Qaeda jihadis tried to dismiss the video as fake, but the outcry apparently embarrassed the al-Qaeda branch to the point of issuing an unusual expression of regret from the group.
"We rid ourselves of what our brother did," Rimi said. "We did not order him to do so and we are not pleased with what he did."

Now, if the thugs in al-qadea would apologize for all the other attacks they have committed, they can be considered to be actual human beings unlike the ugly women hating, gay hating pieces of shit they really are.
