Just imagine "if the shoe was on the other foot" and how would it look upon us if a foreign leader was in our country and a US reporter acted the same way. Its actually quite embarrassing for the Iraqi people.

The Foo Bird

A man went to Africa to do some game hunting.
While there, he hired a young native to accompany him as his guide.
Soon, a large flock of birds flew overhead and the hunter took aim.

The guide grabbed his arm and said "Oh,no! These are foo birds and to shoot one means terrible things will happen to you! The man figured that was only a superstion of the natives and shot one down. Then the rest of the flock returned and pooped all over him.

He hollared at the boy, "I must have some water right away to wash this mess off. The boy said "Oh no! To wash the crap of the foo bird off means sudden death immediately! Again the hunter ignored his advice, found water and got cleaned off.

Sure enough he dropped dead then and there.

The moral of this story is "If the foo shits, wear it."

Iraqi citizens (and oprhans) created a shoe monument memorializing the event when a show was thrown at Bush. "Al-Zaidi was jailed for his actions, and a trial is pending. But his angry gesture touched a defiant nerve throughout the Arab and Muslim world. He is regarded by many people as a hero. Demonstrators in December took to the streets in the Arab world and called for his release."



Bush Shoe
 
Just one day after revelaing the Bush-shoe monument, the monument was removed after a request from the Iraqi central government. Guess the monument wasn't for ALL Iraqi people as it was first touted to be.
