[QUOTE]Originally posted by finished: [QB] [i]..a journalist sitting in the third row jumped up, shouting: "This is the farewell kiss, you dog," and threw his shoes one after the other towards Bush. Soles of shoes are considered the ultimate insult in Arab culture. After Saddam Hussein's statue was toppled in Baghdad in April 2003, many onlookers beat the statue's face with their soles. Some Iraqi journalists stood up to apologise. The White House said Bush ducked to avoid the first shoe, while the second narrowly missed the president. Bush said: "Thanks for apologising on behalf of the Iraqi people. It doesn't bother me. If you want the facts, it was a size 10 shoe that he threw".[/i] [/QB][/QUOTE]
