George Bush Shoe Throw TRANSLATED in Iraq 2 shoes thrown at President video

A courageous Iraqi journalist throws his shoes at President Bush out of contempt for Bush over the Iraq war. Such a shame he misses. Bush Shoe Incident Merchandise! http://shop.cafepress.com/bush-shoe?CMP=CJ-CLICK-10463747 You have to respect this man's restraint. With over 1,000,000 Iraqis dead as a result of George's war, flying shoes are practically flowers and candy. In the middle of the news conference with Mr Maliki, Iraqi television journalist Muntadar al-Zaidi stood up and shouted "this is a goodbye kiss from the Iraqi people, dog," before hurling a shoe at Mr Bush which narrowly missed him. With his second shoe, which the president also managed to dodge, Mr Zaidi said: "This is for the widows and orphans and all those killed in Iraq." Throwing shoes at someone, or sitting so that the bottom of a shoe faces another person, is considered an insult among Muslims. The Cairo-based al-Baghdadiya TV channel said Mr Zaidi should be freed because he had been exercising freedom of expression - something which the Americans had promised to Iraqis on the ousting of former Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein. The programming director for al-Baghdadiya, Muzhir al-Khafaji, described the journalist as a "proud Arab and an open-minded man". The brother of the Iraqi journalist who threw his shoes at US President George W Bush has said that the reporter has been beaten in custody. Muntadar al-Zaidi has suffered a broken hand, broken ribs and internal bleeding, as well as an eye injury, his older brother, Dargham, told the BBC. Mr Zaidi told a BBC correspondent that despite offers from many lawyers his brother has not been given access to any since being arrested. Mr Zaidi was a graduate of communications from Baghdad University. "He has no ties with the former regime. His family was arrested under Saddam's regime," his programming director said. Mr Zaidi has previously been abducted by insurgents and also held twice for questioning by US forces in Iraq. In November 2007 he was kidnapped by a gang on his way to work in central Baghdad and released three days later without a ransom. He said at the time that the kidnappers had beaten him until he lost consciousness, and used his necktie to blindfold him. Mr Zaidi never learned the identity of his kidnappers, who questioned him about his work before letting him go. Dargham al-Zaidi told the BBC that his brother deliberately bought Iraqi-made shoes, which were dark brown with laces. The shoes themselves are said to have attracted bids from around the Arab world. According to unconfirmed newspaper reports, the former coach of the Iraqi national football team, Adnan Hamad, has offered $100,000 (£65,000) for the shoes, while a Saudi citizen has apparently offered $10m (£6.5m).
