((((((((((( NO LIFE ))))))))))))))

[sorankurdi]

al-zeidi is total twat, he's done nothing to change the stitution of iraq but merely show the share stupidity of arab iraqis. where was this so called brave shoe throwing expert in 2003 when america invaded iraq? he was probably dancing on the street like every other iraq, clapping and cheering the american on. some arabs call him a hero, i just think he is a coward and a scumbag

[MisterCoswel]

wow

[MisterCoswel]

Did you just say they were better off with SADDAM!!!! they hung him so I dont think they agree.

[GrimmjowProduction]

@MisterCoswel Think what they would have done if they could hang american soldiers, generals and leaders who participated in Iraq??

[from212]

@MisterCoswel Yea but they replaced him with the presence of the U.S. army which have brought them more pain, death and destruction than Saddam did the entire time he ruled.

[MisterCoswel]

Did you just say they were better off with SADDAM!!!! they hung him so I dont think they agree.

[vinzer72frie]

[spanisheyes3]

the government is the most corrupt system there is no matter what country you are in. america wants to conquer the middle east without a doubt. iraqi should be left alone. its a peaceful country wether its muslims or christians. oneday the people should rise up and fight for our rights.

[PhantasmX7]

This is the most rediculous thing I have ever seen. Pathetic.

[nwpamundsen]

@PhantasmX7 LOL

[Offspring1337]

So much for parades and flowers for USA troops. They hate you for destroying their country for your global oil masters.

[JRLLUnd]

The American government (yes I am a natural born citizen of the United States of America), has done nothing in the region of the Middle East but to provoke the kind of atrocities, such as 9/11, in our blind addicting for oil. The government, and its influences, has pursued a policy of interventionism for profit and greed. Blow back was bound to occur and the Iraqis have every reason to throw shoes at our leaders and commemorate those of their own that take a stand against our special interest

[hucky22]

This defines Stupidity and lack of shame and dignity , this peice of shit needs to be Destoyed .

[Unstoppable911]

I find that very disrespectfull, I demand it be destroyed for the United States Of America

[reazrj]

yes, i think this kind of mentality is what got america in the past 8 years in deep shit- that they could do what ever the hell they want- Though this is pretty purposeless and stupid i agree too...

[CalleAlJalili]

God bless Iraq and the lovely people of this ancient country with its beautiful Arabic. Mr al-Zeidi is a hero!!!!!!

[hucky22]

he is NO HERO he's a idiot just like your self , how on earth is Disrespecting a Leader being a HERO ? I call it lack of mannerism and disrespect to off of us iraqies , Bush Did us a Favor and got rid of the Saddam regime and this is how we award him ? FUCK OFF GUY

[MiiSzMiimSz]

Orite better get this straight. You guys are fighting about iraqis being terrOrists. But what youse never think about is Why do they do it? Ever thought maybe its the fact they are trying to defend their country and trying not to lose their people and cultures. But all you people can think about is Hate. Next time please dont judge before you actually know what its like to go through their pain.

[mathman43]

Iraq: a country of cowardly, ungrateful curs. Why didn't the little bitch shoe thrower toss it at Saddam? You deserve to be slaves.  I need to hear some gratitude for removing Saddam.

[arvydas0069]

95% of Iraqis killed as a result of this war have been killed by Insurgents

[cmnweb]

jeje yeah right.. belive your media¡¡¡

[andrewh23]

HAAH, I want one for the yard.

[bluedragonfly4]

Oh!!! How innovative, let's pay good money to make a big giant shoe (an ugly one at that) honoring yet another unappreciative ungrateful Raghead and put in front of an orphanage. Nothing quite say's Thank you to the U.S. for trying to save us like a monument of direspect. They need to bring our people home. Because these people don't care anything about us trying to help them.

[brokenarrow2222]

In Iraq throwing a shoe shows grave comptemt. Americans show grave comptemt by dropping BOMBS.

[andrewh23]

In Alaska, people spell contempt as "comtempt" and vote for dumbshit Governors.  Sound it out is good advice for 2nd grader but adults from Alaska like brokenarrow2222 might be better off opening a fucking dictionary before trying (and failing) to write a witty comeback. Douche.

[brokenarrow2222]

i here andrew squealing like a faggot pig and saying nothing. If u look like palin, i'll bone u two. To andrew my favorite DumbAss.

[mothartrucker]

They've had it dismantled already.

[webby686]

we will always remember!!!

[hfl2005]

I say pull the troops out now an let them fall into chaos

Re-open the rape rooms and torture chambers

Its the only thing these animals understand

[browserLC]

this is what 3000 americans soldiers have died for? thanks alot, idiot Bush. And thank you, ungrateful, ignorant Iraqi sand monkeys.

[niemanickurwa]

lol Nice.

Hopefully the irony of them being allowed to do that without being fed to lions isn't lost on them.

[MikeMaco]

It's beautiful

[rainbowschild]

The Holy Shoe

I wondered what happened to the Monty Python people, I guess they went to Iraq. Hilarious.

[GodKillerAtheist]

and a new religion is born LOL

[Docthewrench]

actually under my man Saddam things were better, he was a awesome leader nevermind all the WMDs he used on the people of iraq, it never happened even though there is proof, but honestly other then that he wasnt any different then any other leader of a country,, take ours atm not a whole lot different.

[Docthewrench]

then come take me on son

[maynecuffs]

Enjoying the freedom to build a monument, provided by the same "EVIL BASTARD" of which the monument is an antithesis. These people are really brilliant, lemme tell ya. They deserve every billion bucks we throw their way. God damn ROCKET SCIENTISTS, those Iraqis.

[arkybarky]

WALL-E

[whiteface0]

too bad saddam is gone, he was such a good dictator

[WeskJago]

will somebody PLEASE make a plan to kill Bush! damn assasins are always killing the good guys!

kudos on the shoe!

[maynecuffs]

Hows about someone makes a plan to kill you?

[WeskJago]

haha! not bloody likely. who gonna come up with a plan to kill of a random ass like me? YOOUU? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! besides, i'm not a fucktard like Bush. i'd actually try to make peace with everybody, not kill em off and take over their shit. NEXT

[maynecuffs]

That's because you are too weak to take anyone's shit. Say what you will about Bush, and laugh all day long like a fool, but in all actuality you have no notion of what it's like to fight for anything. You are a classic Globalized bleeding Vagina. I can just tell.

[WeskJago]

oh i can take shit and i can fight. but why waste time on a nobody like me? ..ohh! i get it now...you say i should be assasinated cuz of what i said about them always shooting the good guys that are fighting the peaceful way. there's real issues in the world to consider. i'm just one little insignificant boy. shouldnt we be staying on the subject of the real probs in life? namely, the Bush family existing? i assume you know what it's like to fight for something? i'd like to hear your story :)

[yesjenisback]

omg!

[SkilledShopper]

lol

[Docthewrench]

I wish Saddam was still running IRAQ it was so much better place.,

[danielkabuto]

lol me 2 they woulnt have that freedom.

[cyklonb1989]

and i wish you were there...

ignorant fuck, read a book.

[Docthewrench]

I actually have read a few, I know a lot of IRAQ history, proud people they are SADDAM was just misunderstood. If someone wojuld have hugged him he might have been better

[maynecuffs]

Yeah, and when he waived the middle finger at the world, we should have just wrote him a letter on silky paper with a big UN stamp on the top, so he would know it was official. Fuck that. That's what you get whacky Iraqis.

[remy5858]

yeah saddam was awesome

[Striker4928]

Actually they were way better off under Saddam, believe it or not. One million dead, 5 million refugees, a destroyed economy and 2000 year culture, are you kidding me? There wasn't any religious fanatics or religious warfare under Saddam, there was full employment and some of the best education in the Middle East. They could have dealt with the political suppression themselves. Don't start patting yourselves on the back, the US is NOT a democracy.

[Taospark]

No, they're a federal republic. As for Iraq, they could not have "dealt with the political suppression themselves". When they did, Saddam killed about 200,000 of his own people who rose up in guess what? Religious warfare.

No one is going to be patting themselves on the back about Iraq even if they come out alright but it's naive to think Iraq was better off under Saddam.

[Striker4928]

Your disinformation fools nobody. There was a war 25 years ago, sponsored by US generals. Kurds died from US gas weapons, and ALSO from Iranian gas weapons, thousands died from gas only the Iranians had at the time. It was a war sponsored by the US shithead. and you criminals keep harping back to that to justify one of the WORST MASS MURDERS SINCE HITLER AND POL POT. Americans and BUSH should have been invaded for that massive crime. There is no excuse you slime can come up with to justify it.

[Striker4928]

Bush is in the same class as Stalin, Pol Pot and Hitler. Like Hitler and Pol Pot, Bush causes war, bloodshed & chaos. He is responsible for causing around 1.5 million deaths in Iraq, Afghanistan and Somalia. Bush is definitely as criminally psychotic as Stalin or any of the dictators in history that committed mass murder. Bush makes Hussein look like a saint. Iraq has no "federal republic"; there is a puppet government of criminals installed by the most criminal nation in recent history, America

[hfl2005]

"Bush is in the same class as Stalin, Pol Pot and Hitler. Like Hitler and Pol Pot"

Wow you really are delusional

Was it a lifetime of substance abuse a horse kick to the head or were you born this big an asshole?

[Striker4928]

Iraq had free enterprise & full employment. NO bombings, NO religious warfare. Sunni lived together with Shiite and Christians. The US destroyed the christian community, like the Nazis installed death squads & puppet govt. Iraq had universities, libraries, hospitals, freeways, subsidized housing, health care with one of the highest quality education in the ME. So they couldn't speak out politically like hundreds of other ME nations, but they were 1000% better off before US terrorists arrived.

[hfl2005]

Really? What Iraq are you talking about

Certainly not the one a former coworker of mine escaped from

The one he escaped from had soldiers breaking into his parents house at night looking for him but it was too late because he escaped the country

The Iraq he described had soldiers forcing civilians to sit on broken bottles and standing knee deep in drums of broken glass

Clueless asshole

[arvydas0069]

We don't carpet bomb. You sir are a liar.

Saddam's hometown. Figures. People still bitter about losing thier elevated place in Iraqi society at the expense of the Shiites. They should put Saddam's maggot riddled body in the shoe and set it ablaze and then blow themselves up with suicide vests. That's how they usually get thier points across right?

[hfl2005]

Yeah i guess all of that smart bomb light footage is really footage from a playstation

[arvydas0069]

LOL you live in the United States so it looks like you chose greener pastures just like my arab family. If I were you I'd shut the fuck up before Homeland Security comes and knocks on your door. I'd call on your ass ya traitor

[rdbextreme]

your an idiot

[Striker4928]

US TORTURE.. Abu Ghraib was just the tip of the iceberg. MIDNIGHT GESTAPO RAIDS sweeps of homes & mass imprisonment & disappearing of innocents into massive prison system , RANDOM SNIPING OF CIVILIANS, SIEGING of towns with civilians mowed down by mortars and snipers, ILLEGAL CHEMICAL WEAPONS, including white phosphorus & depleted uraninium. It's called war on civilians, it's a filthy crime and on the SAME LEVEL AS POL POT & HITLER. US troops are not innocent they are equally GUILTY as Bush

[andrewh23]

Your friend skipped town but left his own parents to take the heat. Wow, your friend sounds like a selfish asshole.

ONE MORE TIME: we DID NOT invade Iraq to overthrow their government and spread freedom, dipshit. we invaded to find and destroy WMDs. We found none. You can't revise history by shutting your eyes and holding your breath idiot.

[Taospark]

Um....what?

[hfl2005]

Go to hell

If you havent noticed the people doing the bombings are terrorists and they are the ones targeting civilians

If you love these animals so much why dont you go ficght with them Lets see how fast your willing to strap a bomb on yourself, a woman or a retarded child

Fucking coward

[andrewh23]

Terrorists target civilians? Guess you just called Israel a terrorist state for blowing away 400 kids.

[hfl2005]

Sorry about that one ddidnt hear about it on the news and Im not going to take your word for it

Probably human shields used by the terrorists you love so much

[killzoomer]

@Striker4928 Yea they say they love Democracy but it's closest allies are Monarchies

[30H13]

@Striker4928 yes, based on the fact that leaders are elected. it is a democracy.

[doc3ACR]

@Striker4928 wow really dude, why dont you do your homework first and then make an educated statement. you have no idea the atrocities saddam committed there. ask the kurdish how they feel about saddam or the tribes in the east of iraq that were wiped out by chemical weapons indiscriminately. most of the people starting shit with soldiers in iraq are not from iraq. its radical muslims from other countries coming in and causing issues. ive been there twice. you are a waste of life

[Striker4928]

@doc3ACR..been there AFTER the US turned it into a hellhole, just like child killer americans to point fingers at there victims. Does a million dead from illegal invasion and AMERICAN atrocities mean anything to you? No, not if you're American. You probably laugh at the genocide the US did in Vietnam, deliberately to innocents. FYI there was NO public bombings, NO civil strife or war between shiites and sunni, they lived together in the same apartment blocks, and they had modern infrastructure.

[Striker4928]

@doc btw Saddam was no different from all the Middle East dictators which of course the US ignored since Iraq had the major oil reserves. Kurds were killed by Turkey, Iran and Iraq, 30 YEARS AGO in a US sponsored Iran-Iraq war. any mustard gas or nerve gas canisters surviving from that time are stamped "made in the USA". Also Rumsfeld and american generals were in Baghdad selling weapons to Iraq and supporting their friend Saddam. You must be desperate using that as an excuse for US crimes.
