The Iraqi TV reporter, Muntadher al-Zaidi, who tossed his shoes at George Bush in Iraq...


Link


Well, he got the same gesture while in Paris from another Iraqi!

I gotta say, Mr. al-Zaidi has a short memory, if he thinks Bush was a dictator. I have to wonder, would he have dared toss a shoe at Saddam? Doubt it.

I think it's great he got a taste of his own medicine.

Hilarious! The whole 'shoe toss' thing must be cultural. That being said, I know a few folks who would look good with a steel-toe upside their head.

Am I missing something? Didn't this happen a year ago?

Edit: Jumped the gun after seeing the first video - thanks, DavidK.

When he tossed a shoe at Bush, yes. But he just got pay back recently from a fellow Iraqi.
