Omg!!! Breaking Video!!!

There something just plain bent with the people of the middle east.
Logic & rational thinking just do not apply.

1. Attacking anyone is a bad plan & shows a lack of respect for human life
2. If your going to attack the president of the US , you are taking a very big risk that you will get killed.
3. If you are going to attack some and risk your life, the shoe is not the best choice of weapon, a paper airplane after all might get him in the eye or a least inflict a nasty paper cut

I think it must be their education system or lack there of
I guess most of them are home schooled by their ignorant parents who then home school their nit wit kids.

Each one of them ingraining in their idiot offspring:

1. A lack of respect for human life
2. A lack of respect for women
3. A undeniable belief that their god is the one and only.
4. All other religious beliefs are an insult to their god and must be eliminated
5. Hatred of the Jews and the west
6. They are Superior to all others
7. Violence is an acceptable approach to obtain their objectives
8. Acts of martyrdom will be rewarded in the after life

They really need to take some oil money and build an education system that does not subscribe to these beliefs
 
John: homeschooling isn't the issue, religious schooling is. They've let a roughly 1500 year old book mould their culture. They take as much of it as they can literally and wont allow for any cultural advancement.

It is a traditional Muslim insult to throw your shoes at someone. It has cultural significance in that community that you are ignorant of. It is considered to be one of the worst, most humiliating insults to throw your shoes at a person.

Shoes and the bottom of your feet are considered to be disgusting/dirty in Muslim culture and people must remove their shoes before entering a home. Even showing the bottom of your foot to someone is considered to be an insult.

The meaning of throwing your shoes at somoene is something like you think the person is lower than dirt and that you would be degrading yourself by touching them if you assaulted them--if you slapped with your hand, your hand would then be dirty so only the bottom of your shoe is suitable.

In this case it's you who is ignorant. You saw something that you didn't comprehend and rather than realizing that there must be more to it than you were understanding you lept to the ignorant assumption that it meant the guy was stupid.

I understand that the President of Iraq is both mortified and incensed. Further that the Iraqi press corps is making abject apologies. I don't believe the Iraqi's are going to show him much respect for his lack of respect.

Must have thought Bush was Austin Powers
 
You know, Bush said '"SHOE" ku ra zeera' before that dude got up and threw his SHOES at him. Did Bush Jr. make another foul up in speech and said something farking wrong, when he meant something farking right?

Gyaos Baltar.

It could have been a tragedy if the guy had a gun. :eek:

That's all we'd need. Geesh.

As much as I distain him as POTUS he still represents the US.

Yes - unfortunately for all of us he represented the United States or 8 years! Bush deserves to have something thrown at him - but I'm not thinking shoes!

I lived in Islamic countries for 13 years and this is the first I've heard of this shoe thingy.
 
I would have liked to have seen Bush wapped in the face.:D

Maybe it's an arab thing, or maybe even specifically an Iraq thing--however it's not the first I've heard of it. I knew the significance of it the moment I heard the story.
