This Just In!

During a press conference in Iraq, a journalist threw his shoes at President Bush.  Here is the footage:

This dude was aiming to kill!

The sole of the shoe and the bottom of the feet are very insulting in some Middle Eastern cultures, isn't that right, Shotor?

The Iraqi journalist, Muntather Zaidi, yelled, "This is your goodbye kiss from the Iraqi people, Dog!" As he hurled both shoes at the President's head.

Bush, reportedly, "did not feel the least bit threatened by it."

According to Jamal Dajani of the Huffington Post this was not the first instance of shoe-pummeling.  Three weeks ago thousands of Iraqis, pummeled an effigy of Bush with shoes, set it on fire, and trampled it all while shouting, "No no no to the occupier."
