Shoe-Throwing Iraqi is a Hero to Some

December 16th, 2008

Al-Zaidi

Shoe-throwing Iraqi is a hero to some. All of a sudden, Muntadar al-Zaidi, is a hero. Before Sunday, the Iraqi TV reporter who hurled his shoes at President Bush during a news conference was a relatively obscure figure, even in his own land. But by Monday al-Zaidi was the darling of the Arab world. Read more here.

It was really funny when I first saw it. The more I think about it the more that I realize it is a disrespect to us. Our president we don’t care for him but he is still our president until January 20th.

TWO SHOE’S FOR TWO, the first shoe thrown was for the DESTRUCTION, OF IRAQ, THE other shoe thrown, was for the innocent soldier’s that died, for a LIE, BUSH should count his BLESSING’S, HE went into a COUNTRY, that he DESTROYED, and he was BLESSED, that the reporter didn’t throw a knife at him, THE SECRET SERVICE gave the JOURNALIST plenty of time, to do what he wanted to do, that reporter was able to throw two SHOE’S at BUSH!!! and the SECRET SERVICE should have been STANDING IN FRONT OF THE PODIUM, but they were not on their game, either this was sloppy on their part, or GOD, is bringing BUSH to a OPEN SHAME, and he is ALLOWING THE ENTIRE WORLD TO WITNESS IT.

You guys (pennie & cecilnoe) are too funny!
I have read the comments made, and some say the journalist was wrong for throwing his shoes at the American President, because of his title,(president). What about the innocent people that have been killed since the war started, what were their titles? And Does it really make any difference? I am not saying that I agree with the Journalist, but one has to think for a minute. It is very rear that journalists act in this way, usually they remain neutral on any given story they are reporting. However, this journalist knew the nature of his actions, likewise the concequences. Therefore one can only imagin the built up anger that is now ascribed in him. What could have caused that? But at the end of the day the better question is who could have caused that? Bush, why, how?!

Hey people, we should not encourage such a cowardly act as throwing a shoe at a president… Whatever next? What this guy did is disrespectful period! He has embarrassed the American president, American people and not to talk of his own people and country. Now these people are condoning violence and making a hero of an “immature individual” trying to prove a point. How Juvenile!
