Yesterday, George W. Bush was visiting Iraq to sign a security agreement and as the whole world saw, Mr. Montather Al Zaidi, a journalist,
threw his shoes at Bush. I would only like to comment on how powerful those shoes were. They were thrown with pride, with heart and with determination. George W. Bush and the government (under his rule) hurt Iraq so bad, a journalist decided to risk his life by throwing his shoes at the most powerful president on earth who is surrounded by the best trained security forces.
Those pair of shoes were thrown with hate towards injustice, they were thrown with love towards Iraq, they were thrown with honesty, they were thrown with a message telling the whole world: "Your troops and power is worth a pair of shoes to Iraqies, and we are going to keep our head up high and yours under our shoes". Those pair of shoes are and will be the most powerful shoes in history. Those pair of shoes made at least 2 billion people smile, laugh and realize that there is hope.
let's all show respect to this Iraqi hero, and his shoes.
