MAN THROWS SHOES AT BUSH.3GP

President Bush made a farewell visit this Sunday to Baghdad, Iraq, where he met with Iraqi leaders and was targeted by an angry Iraqi reporter.

In the middle of a news conference, the correspondent of Al-Baghdadia TV channel, stood up and shouted "this is a goodbye kiss from the Iraqi people, dog," before hurtling his shoes at Mr. Bush, narrowly missing him.

Among Muslims, throwing shoes at someone, or sitting so that the bottom of a shoe faces another person, is considered an insult.

The man was dragged out screaming after throwing the shoes. Bush ducked, and the shoes, thrown one at a time, sailed past his head during the news conference with Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki in his palace, in the heavily fortified Green Zone.

As the man continued to scream from another room, Bush said: "That was a size 10 shoe he threw at me, you may want to know."

The man later identified as Muntadar al-Zeidi, a correspondent for Iraqi-owned Al-Baghdadia television based in Egypt.

This is the extreme hate which has gathered Bush from Iraq and Afghanistan after killing thousands or innocent ppl for nothing. US should alter its policies for the third wolrd... she should help ppl not kill them.
