Comments for Famous Factious Flinging of Footwear »
Posted By populist 11 months, 2 weeks ago in Political NewsDid you read or hear recent news reports that the Iraqi television newsman who heaved his shoes at George W. Bush during a press conference in Baghdad on December 14 is scheduled to go to trial on December 31, charged with assaulting a foreign leader?
Apparently neither Bush nor the Iraqi prime minister, Nouri al-Maliki, who was standing beside Bush when the now-famous factious flinging of footwear occurred, have sought charges against al-Zeidi. But the judicial official who investigated the incident said there was no legal option to drop the case.
