Outgoing President George W Bush probably received one of his last insult from the Arab world.
He had a pair of shoes thrown at him by a local journalist at a media conference in Iraq.
The shoe-thrower has been arrested, but it is unlikely he will be severely punished because most Iraqis have applauded his actions.
Shoes are the dirtiest things a person can throw at another because they are the closest to the ground. In Bush’s case many Iraqis consider that he is responsible for dragging Iraqi society through the dirt. That is why this action has all its importnce in the muslim world and in many other countries I guess!
