So Dubya is on his last visit to Iraq and they surely love him over there. So much so that one Iraqi journalist decided to throw both of his shoes at the emperor, which is one of the ultimate insults in the Arabian world. Well, too bad the dude missed or he didn't throw something more lethal. However, I also have to give Georgie some credit - he dodged both shoes pretty calmly and doesn't seem too bothered by the whole incident.It will be interesting to see what happens to the courageous journalist in the next couple of days. I think he might have just booked himself a free vacation in a sunny place called Guantanamo...I will try to stay on this!While Muntadar al-Zeidi throws the shoes at Bush, he actually still finds time to drop knowledge for us all. Here are his thoughts translated to English: "This is the farewell kiss, you dog! This is from the widows, the orphans and those killed in Iraq. You are responsible for the death of thousands of Iraqis."I have nothing to add, except to again express my amazement he only opted for shoes...
You have to respect this man’s restraint. With nearly 1,000,000 Iraqis dead as a result of George’s war, flying shoes are practically flowers and candy.Posted in Arab, Bush, Iraq, Middle East, Occupation, Politics, U.S., War crimes, White House, World News
