Man throws shoe at President Bush in Iraq

December 15, 2008             CLICK ON JPG FOR BUSH' CARTOON

The most important thing is that Iraqi Resistance group "Jihad and Reform" reacted on the Iraqi journalist act saying: "This is the referendum [on the Security Agreement] you asked for, you saw it with your own eyes".

While we admire this courageous act and we promise him that his courage will be written with gold in the history pages, we hold the Government of the Green Zone, the occupation administration the full responsibility in maintaining the life of the hero and warn them of torturing him.

We also call upon all Arab and international organizations interested in human rights specialized in defending the freedoms and rights of journalists to work stand beside the hero journalist and demanding his release.

To overcome the surprise and shock of the Americans to see their God being humiliated, news agencies started to accuse Al-Zaidi of being "left" and "on drugs", another says that he is a "communist" very closw to the Sadrists [communist close to the Islamists?] no wonder if we soon hear that he is "Al-Qaeda".

Novosti says that Iraqis wish to be in his place to throw their shoes on Bush.

Fateehon reported that Mowafiq Al-Runai is leading the interrogation with Al-Zaidi but the journalist is a terrible condition and bleeding after the Maliki�s bodyguards smashed his glasses in his face. [The video shows that the person who started to kick Al-Zaidi is "Haidir Majid" the brother of Maliki's media advisor "Yaseen Majid"]

Demonstration in Baghdad - Sadr-City and in Fallujah for the support of Al-Zaidi, earlier reported that 50 Iraqi lawyers want to defend Al-Zaidi but later the Iraqi Lawyers Union and the Arab Lawyers expressed their support for the journalist and asked to transfer his trial outside Iraq to guarantee a honest trial.

Ruba Al-Husari on Syria of Tomorrow:

People go to Hajj to throw stones on the devil to be close to God, throwing shoes on George Bush works the same.

Iraqi writer Ali Al-Sudani says:

This is my idea, I was the first who suggest this six months ago.

Atwan on Al-Quds Al-Arabi: "suitable farewell for a war criminal"

Although it is unprofessional journalism but we understand it from an Iraqi journalist.
The new Iraq�s Bush turned into a mass grave and a killing field. Five million fled from this democracy. Talabani, in his speech called Bush "A great friend of the Iraqi people who liberated the country", with such a friend who needs enemies.

Khalid Sagiyah in Al-Akhbar:

"This is a farewell kiss, you dog", an Iraqi journalist said this � A line will be repeated again and again. A one day it be said to the last American soldier leaves Iraq "This is a farewell kiss, you �..".

Syrian Al-Watan:

A scene reflects the pride and dignity Iraqis, shows what Bush eight years rules means.

Barhooma on Jordanian Al-Ghad:

If stones were the weapon of the Palestinian Intifada, then shoes are the weapon of the oppressed people around the globe. The American already threw their shoes on Bush by electing Obama.

George Hajoj Syria of Tomorrow:

People tried everything with Bush but the man lacks the common sense, the Iraqi journalist thought "lets try to correct him with the shoes".

"Dogs" from Haroun Al-Rashid to Muntadhir al-Zeidi

By the way:

Centuries ago the haroun Al-Rashid, the Caliphate in Baghdad addressed "Nikfor" the representative of the Roman Emperor with " From Haroun Al-Rashid the Muslim caliphate to "Nikfor" the Roman dog� our answer is what you see and not what you hear". History repeats itself with Bush is the "Western dog".
