White House Does Not Think Pictures Of Sailors On Their Knees Is Embarrassing [VIDEO] According to recent reports, White House spokesman Josh Earnest just told Fox News that the White House is not embarrassed about the pictures that were recently released showing 10 U.S. sailors on their knees with their hands behind their heads in Iran. Earnest argued that the primary concern was that the sailors were not harmed in the incident. I dont think that there is any reason for anybody to be embarrassed, Earnest stated. I think there is reason for us to be certainly relieved that our service men and women who are protecting America in a very dangerous part of the world were released pretty shortly after they were taken into custody. Earnest also confirmed that the events that led to capture are currently under investigation by the Department of Defense. The sailors are currently being interview by senior officials.
