Shoe-Throwing Reporter In Custody
Sky News
Monday, Dec 15, 2008
A journalist who threw shoes at George Bush is being questioned over the incident, Iraqi officials have said.
Muntadar al Zeidi is facing interrogation over whether he was paid to interrupt the US President’s news conference in Baghdad.
(ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW)
The reporter, who works for the Al Baghdadia channel which broadcasts from Cairo, is also being tested for alcohol and drugs.
The reporter jumped up as Mr Bush was speaking alongside the Iraqi prime minister Nuri al Maliki on Sunday.
He shouted, “It is the farewell kiss, you dog,” before throwing two shoes.
The first hit the US and Iraqi flags behind the leaders after Mr Bush ducked. The second was off target.

More than five years or so, 150.000 troops, 140.000 mercenaries operatives, unknow number of criminals and death squads who are working for the brutal criminal regime in Iraq and yet, the vile thug and the war criminal Bush is in fear of making announced visit to the Iraq, why is that ? thats because the vile war criminal, Bush, is always fear the justice. Take a look at how those criminals have violently and brutally harmed the journalist while they asked other journalists to put off all cameras. This happened in the presence of the two war criminals, the vile war criminal Bush and the war criminal Nori almalki.

Well said Pam.
Free Muntadar al Zeidi..Hero.

If the guy ever gets out of this alive, he should get those shoes back and have them bronzed. It is sad really, because after years of oppression, torture, and virtual genocide, this is all those people can volley back at their enemy. The last defiant muster of a people who are totally beaten.
December 15th, 2008 at 7:27 am
The only complaint i have is that he MISSED!!!
December 15th, 2008 at 7:36 am
The bad news is one shoe missed.
December 15th, 2008 at 7:39 am
The good news, GWB is on his way out.
December 15th, 2008 at 7:41 am
Those Shoes would be worth a fortune on e bay.

i would like to think i would,but i am not truly 100% sure.

This man will be tortured to death by people working for the american armed services, and all you can do is make flip remarks. Perhaps it is time most of you looked at yourselves in the mirror and understood that YOU are the new nazis. Not because you are in any way purposely acting in shared evil intent with Cheney, Blair and their immediate gang. But worse, because you are of the people that enable in every way their power, and you refuse to understand that connection, or take its consequences seriously.
Iraq has seen atrocities that surpass the worst crimes of the nazi death camps. These atrocities were planned in the West, and carried out by US and UK members of the armed services, or people trained by the same.
Why was Hitler not stopped by his own people? They were more intelligent by far than the average person on this site. They were more compassionate by far than the average person on this site. They were better educated about the horrors of war than the average person on this site. Why then did Hitler’s own people not reject him. The answer lies in the jokey nature with which you treat the psychopathic genocidal braindead thug Bush. The German people did the same, to provide themselves with ever last excuse to not act against Hitler.
The character of a person counts for nought if an evil male can use basic psychology to run circles around it.

Someone who actually stood up against the death of his country and its people. I thought such people were regarded as heros in America or is that reserved for overpaid idiots such as actors, prosport figures, politicians, etc.

somebody needs to make a vid on you tube along the lines “size ten shoe, priceless” you get the idea. check out the MATRIX vid on you tube.
December 15th, 2008 at 12:45 pm
I guess he puts our reporters to shame.
December 15th, 2008 at 1:14 pm
I’d like to question him:
How did you expect not to miss if you didn’t get closer?
Why didn’t you aim a little more to the right?
Why didn’t you bring some more shoes?
December 15th, 2008 at 1:14 pm
The guy is a global HERO!! Please use grenades next time. We’d dearly love to see that ugly son-of-a-bitch blown to pieces on TV, in Iraq!! KARMA!!
December 15th, 2008 at 1:16 pm
Muntader expressed the revulsion that millions of people feel towards Bush, his zionist neocon pals (PERLE, WOLFOWITZ, FEITH, CHERTOFF–never forget them!) & their entire wicked game of chao$, de$truction and death–which is aimed mostly at Muslims and Arabs. (They’re coming for we in the west next however.)
Muntader is seen by milliions–not just in the Arab/Muslim world–but everywhere as a HERO who stood up against the face of evil.
As is common for most CRIMINALS, Bush wanted to visit the scene of his warcrimes just one last time and languish in the destruction and death he is responsible for creating. But all it took was for ONE BRAVE IRAQI MAN, ARMED ONLY WITH HIS SHOES, TO REDUCE BUSH–IN FRONT OF THE ENTIRE WORLD–TO THE DUCKING LITTLE COWARD THAT HE IS!
It’s INTERESTING that Muntader was KIDNAPPED one year ago. Was he kidnapped by the same neocon-paid gangs that were charged with targeting journalists who dared to tell the truth about conditions in Iraq?
Pray that Muntader is released unharmed and that he will become a national hero to the Iraqi people who have suffered so much under the murderous regime of the zionist neocon murderers!

More proof that TSA returns some of your weapons to you prior to boarding the plane.
December 15th, 2008 at 5:32 pm
Hi they are investigating whether he was paid to throw shoes at bush,
I doubt it but I bet donations soon came flooding in
I would send him a tenner if I knew how
December 15th, 2008 at 6:04 pm
ATTENTION !!!!!
George W. Bush could duck twice, while they were pretty accurately aimed, because of his clairvoyance!!!! He’s a skull and bones member! His Illumani CFR Trilateral Commission Antichristian nazi nazgul occult powers have foreseen this!!!
not…
I wonder why people don’t see a conspiracy in this one ?
December 15th, 2008 at 6:25 pm
Much props to the reporter. ITS ABOUT TIME SOMEONE DID SOMETHING!!!!
December 15th, 2008 at 6:54 pm
All Hail to that Man! Bravo!!! I don’t know why the others didn’t follow him too!
December 15th, 2008 at 7:21 pm
I hope this bootgate does not make a hero out of George W.
I love the way he looked….then worked out that a boot scud was on its way and then he slipped like a boxer…marvelous effort that.
‘So what if a guy threw a shoe at me’….that will be a classic line for some time to come I think…just like ‘don’t taser me bro’.
Imagine the ‘hospitality’ being shown to the culprit.
December 15th, 2008 at 7:23 pm
#30…23
lol…Reminds me of a joke.
You walk up to a clairvoyant and slap there face hard and say I bet you did not see that coming did you?
December 15th, 2008 at 8:40 pm

December 16th, 2008 at 8:38 am
I saw the video, the guy has a great arm! The FSU Seminoles should put him on the team as quarterback and we could finally beat the ‘gators!
December 16th, 2008 at 8:40 am
Whiterabbit, that was a great post; thanks for the laugh in an otherwise crappy day!
December 16th, 2008 at 10:53 am
