Would have been funny if someone yelled "Shoe Bomb!"

Over in Iraq, throwing shoes at a person is more offensive then calling someone a name. Saddam would have shoes thrown at him in 1000s when he was in jail.
 
hahaha...that guy next to bush has a priceless look on his face, like "fuck, someones throwin shoes at bush again". Props to Bush tho, he Matrixed that shit.
 
this is it...the perfect time to use this line.....

Honestly....who throws a shoe?...

From the AP article.

"This is a farewell kiss, you dog," he yelled in Arabic. "This is from the widows, the orphans and those who were killed in Iraq."
...
In Iraqi culture, throwing shoes at someone is a sign of contempt. When U.S. Marines toppled Saddam Hussein's statue on Firdos Square in 2003, the assembled crowd whacked it with their shoes.
 
I take it you've seen the movie "National Security" with Martin Lawrence? If not, you need to. Hilarious freakin movie... but then again, I like Martin Lawrence movies and that's a diabolic crowd.

Lol, actually no I haven't. But I'll add it to my pirateb- er, netflix queue!
 
I wouldn't call him an idiot for doing what most of the world has wanted to do for years. We call that "balls of steel".

I just don't get Arabs. You can rape their 8 year old daughters and wives in front of them. You can cut out their tounges and kill their familys in front of their eyes. You can tourture, rape, kill and mutilate them by the millions and they will kiss your feet.

Yet, If you are the person responsible for taking those murderers out of power............they throw shoes at you.

guess it's just a cultural thing?
