korup Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 madness! but I don't envy the "recption" his must have gotten from the Secret Service..... Quote
tvashtarkatena Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 (edited) It was laughable watching the American media try to treat this story 'seriously'...analyzing how slow the Secret Service responded (5.3 seconds!), etc...while the rest of the world's media took the opportunity to have a good holiday laugh. Â Basically, they're gonna have to let him go; he's now a National Hero. Â The guy was a great shot, and Bush was an artful dodger; a perfect metaphor for the end of one of our most shameful administrations. The reporter may have missed Bush, and Bush may have missed the symbolism, but apparently a few Iraqis caught it. Â Â Edited December 15, 2008 by tvashtarkatena Quote
111 Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 ya, the most frustrating thing wsa that in the interviews later, he didnt get that showing the soles of your feet is a terrible insult in that culture, nevermind throwing your shoe at him. Â maybe the slow response by the S.S. was a purposful reaction... we can only dream. Quote

Fairweather Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Contrast what would have become of somebody who chucked a shoe at Mubarak, Basher Assad, Ahmadinejad...or Saddam Hussein. That, it seems to me, is a question worth asking. Quote

Fairweather Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Sorry, didn't see it. But what do you think of the question? Quote

That, it seems to me, is a question worth asking. Â Mubarak: Much shorter guy, probably could have easily ducked behind the podium. Besides, he's used to ducking worse. Assad; old and slow. He would have been nailed for sure. Imadinnerjacket; short, skinny, and nervous; he probably could have cocked his head to one side without even ducking. Saddam: well, anyone could've hit that barn sized head. Plus, he's not really a moving target. Edited December 16, 2008 by tvashtarkatena Quote

Doug Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Apparently the assailants arm was broken while in custody. I guess the Iraqi security folks are former NY cops., Quote

I guess the Iraqi security folks are former NY cops., dunno, was he also ass-raped w/ a broom? shot 97 times? Â as to the title of the thread - no thanks, the kid shows pluck for sure, but if you can't throw me 2 strikes from 30 feet, i ain't got no place for you in my rotation Quote
tvashtarkatena Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Now the Iraqi authorities are gonna have to let him go so that they can then enjoy fighting a law suit for the arm. Â I heard a radio story yesterday from a reporter who couldn't find one single Iraqi in Bhagdad, after looking all day, who condemned Al Zeidi's gesture. Â Dumb and Dumber. Quote
prole Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 I heard a radio story yesterday from a reporter who couldn't find one single Iraqi in Bhagdad, after looking all day, who condemned Al Zeidi's gesture. Â The results in America probably wouldn't be much different. Quote
tvashtarkatena Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 I think Americans would be somewhat more critical of Al-Zeidi...for missing. Quote
