This is a goodbye kiss, you dog...
An Iraqi television journalist hurled two shoes at President Bush during a joint news conference Bush was holding with Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al Maliki to mark the signing of a U.S.-Iraq security agreement.

Bush had just finished his prepared remarks in which he said the security agreement was made possible by the U.S. surge of troops earlier this year, when the journalist, Muthathar al Zaidi pulled his shoes off and hurled them at the president. “This is a goodbye kiss, you dog,” Zaidi shouted.

Bush dodged the shoes and was not struck. Bodyguards quickly wrestled Zaidi to the floor and hauled him, kicking and screaming, from the room.

but?

Who says Bush didn’t win enough hearts and minds in the Arab world? This is what “liberated” Iraqis did to Saddam Hussain as well. This is a desperate reaction of the untold and unimaginable amount of misery inflicted on the inocnet people of Iraq in the name of liberation since 1990 at the very least - to to speak to the 10 years war that was imposed on this nation to fight the US enemy - Iran. This was enough to shame a tyrant who, together with his team, lied through his teeth to justify the barbaric and illegal war on Iraq that killed 600,000 Iraqis by 2006 (NYT). According to the Washington a team of American and Iraqi epidemiologists estimates that 655,000 more people have died in Iraq since coalition forces arrived in March 2003 than would have died if the invasion had not occurred.

This is too sad that we have to see all this today.but lets hope tha the new american president MR.OBAMA doesen’t do like this as of mr bush. However, let’s hope the colonial adventurists take a lesson from this, which they didn’t take from 700 years of colonialist failures.This is a goodbye kiss, you dog...

To understand what this journalist just did, is because

People are not toys. People are not emotionless creatures who just become collateral damage. They have feelings just as their occupiers have. They hurt just as their torturers do. They bleed and their do cry when their hopes and dreams are shattered. Treat them as pawns and ninepins and you definitely are set to get a reaction. The billions spent on war could have transformed the future of suffering humanity. Think of the people dying of starvation and AIDS.

I’m sure it’s not what you meant, but the U.S. hasn’t been around for 700 years. And we have absolutely NO desire to colonize or dominate the world. We leave that up to the Islamists.

I like your openness, at least you don’t pretend like others when it comes to do anything with the Islamists. :-)

We need more genuine people like you

I agree with major portion of your comment and I share your sentiments about giving and receiving respect. :)

And I am against anyone who criticizes any religion in any context.

As far as religion goes, I feel no one is allowed to impose his religion on anybody. The best he can do is follow his own religion and respect those of others.

Criticizing any religion is equivalent to disbelieving and disrespecting the words of God.

So, instead of criticizing other religions and harming (that’s the word...HARMING) other peoples emotions and getting on par with these terrorists, we should always try to live in harmony and respect humanity.

Terrorists HARM PHYSICALLY, but quasi-terrorists HARM PSYCHOLOGICALLY.

And I’m against any kind of harmful activity.

As you say, there are many paths to God. True! We should follow whatever path we feel comfortable and avoid whatever we don’t like. Its as simple as that.

Don’t harm humanity in any form.

Aneez, I think it’s a potentially huge problem that needs to be nipped in the bud. I have no trouble with people practicing their faith, but when they start to impose that faith on me, yes, I have a problem with that, and essentially that is what is happening with Islamism. I also find them terribly hypocritical. They have no compunction about criticizing other religions but go beserk when anyone criticizes Islam. I refuse to live in fear. Bottom line, I will respect as long as I am respected. :-) Cheers.

Aneez: ”Criticizing any religion is equivalent to disbelieving and disrespecting the words of God.” Sometimes there are aspects of a religion that need criticism. I have a problem with any religion that claims it is the only way. Islam is that way. It claims to be the only one true religion, when it is not. Christianity is somewhat similar when it claims that those who do not believe in Christ will go to hell. So where does that leave Buddhists and Hindus? There are many paths to GOD and as long as one tries to be a good person, serving humanity and not harming others... and those are key words.. not harming... then that’s all that matters.

I have a hard time stomaching the one way vitriolic attacks directed at ex-US President G.W.Bush. He made terrible and tragic mistakes and I hope and pray God forgives him. However, he is a good and kind man at heart. He was mislead by the ilk of dick Chenney, Condi Rice and the neo cons who used him for their agenda. But what turns my stomach is how everyone piles on Bush and no one wants to talk about radical Islamic fascism and terror worldwide. From Muslim Hausaland (Northern Nigeria) to Philipines to India to US to Canada to any and almost everywhere there are Muslims, the radicals are running the show and sewing mayhem, co-opting the good name of Islam. They can come to your hood and practice their faith freely, even convert your people but they kill you for converting from Isalm and so-called civilized countries like Saudi Arabia, which is ostensibly an ally of the West would not even allow you as a visitor to take your Hindu religious books, Bible or other non Islamic religious books in. They are quick to cut off your head or hands. Muslims where they are minorities around the world are generally constantly agitating to break away by violent means. So GW Bush is not the devil and he did not cause 911! His reign was a disaster for the world but he did the best he knew how to, given the card he was dealt by radical Islamo-fascist terrorists who attacked the country he swore to defend. i hate to be forced to defend George Bush!! Just come and see how jihadists are constantly murdering Christians in Northern Nigeria, like a monthly ritual almost!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Leave GWB alone!!!
