[...] picture above was taken yesterday after the inauguration while the one below was taken after Bush got attacked with shoes last month. I thought he would have definitely been reassigned to McDonalds or [...]

We salute the courage and conviction which the young man has. It’s a shame Donald Dumbsfeld too was not on the podium with the Cactus, err…the Bush.

nyx,

please read the history of muslim nations! there has never been a case when a western country came in the middle and tried to resolve problems among muslim fellows. i mean to say our levels are dropped to a very low level that we need america or some other western country to resolve our problems. it is not the case of commending his act or not there are so many people who let off their anger in various ways. check up on videos of fighting between civilised member of parliaments of china, russia, india, south korea etc. where there has been all kinds of fighting among themselves.

the point is let me give you an example:

there are four brothers who fight with each other, patch up with each other and then love each other, the cycle goes on while evrything stays within the family. now, a fourth person from outside who deliberately intervenes and selects one or two out of them, favors them, trades with them, acknowledges them while ignoring the rest and in many cases slowly destroys them then

what is the end result?
you are better to decide.

that is what has been happening to muslim nations since the west has taken command of world affairs and again i will mention that first its our muslims’ fault.

Yea, throwing shoes at Presidents at televised events really makes us Arabs look so wonderful in the rest of the worlds eyes, and yes it does matter how we are perceived.

President Bush probably deserves alot worse, then having shoes thrown at him, however there are better ways to handle things then the way that journalist acted. And i’m sorry, but that journalist is kinda of dumb, because I knew the second I read about this that he was going to get in big trouble. Was throwing his shoes worth endangering his life, and possibly his families? The only point he proved is that he’s ignorant.

TweeZ : Dealing with situations HAS alot to do with CIVILIZATION…u think a person who negotiates is the same as a person who throws a shoe..GOOD Luck to you….This is the way your gonna handle ur problems…just don’t be upset if people don’t find u credible anymore..

I read in Al Seyassah Newspaper today that some Saudi rich guy is willing to pay 1m$ dollars for the shoe! Now that’s funny!

It’s ridiculous some people are commending the fool who threw the shoe at Bush (Still the President of the United States of America!) as thought that fool is a hero. He is a coward who wouldn’t even have dared to write a single bad word against Saddam when Saddam was the president. Now all of a sudden he has guts? He did it only because Bush and the Americans are all for democracy and easily forgive such incidents. Shame on all the people defending this foolish act. I could argue till the cows come home with the fools who think Iraqis were better off before the war. it’s the sunnis and shiites who are killing each other. If only people were educated…
@ 46 Well Said… it reflects on the society as a whole on their manners!
@48 You really need to get a reality check! Or wait… perhaps you arent Kuwaiti. Damn right – you are not Kuwaiti… you are the section of Arabs who justified every action of Saddam Hussein when he plundered this beautiful land. You are the section of Arabs who secretly plan against the interest of Kuwait but on the face beg for Kuwaiti Aid. You are a section of Arabs who despise Kuwait; yet live, work, eat and breathe in Kuwait. Who are you calling a HYPOCRITE Sir?
