What a nice way to end George W. Bush presidency!
President Bush visited Iraq unannounced this morning. While he and the Iraqi prime minister were holding a news conference, an Iraqi reporter threw his pair of shoes at President Bush.
The shoes was a size 10. Throwing shoes at someone is considered to be an insult in Muslim cultures according to CNN report.
I have to say that it was a priceless movement. After what Bush had done in Iraq, I think he deserves it. That Iraqi reporter is the man. You have my respect. I just wish that many Americans can that to Bush too. Trust me, everyone is angry at this man.

“Throwing shoes at someone is considered to be an insult in Muslim cultures according to CNN report” was said in your message above. CNN and yourself are mistaken. It is NOT a Muslim custom. Muslim means someone who has submitted to God. Muslim is a person not a culture. This mistake is made very often and I do believe that it needs to be corrected.
You cannot identify the action as a “Muslim culture.” It can be identified as a culture of a particular region. Think about it if it said a Christian culture or a culture of the Jews or any other religion in the world. Christians are people who believe in Jesus Christ. Jews are people that believe in the message of Abraham. My point is that your statement and your source is politically incorrect.
