If that’s all he has I’d say he got off easy.

Pretty discouraging that he could even get the shoes off his foot much less throw it.

Where’s a good pass rushing defensive end when you need him?! :-)

The Iraqi journalist who threw his shoes at US President George W. Bush has a broken arm and ribs after being struck by Iraqi security agents, his brother told AFP on Tuesday.

Good. I hope he dies of these injuries.

I also heard that this brother was beaten with a whip after this interview... I feel all warm and fuzzy now.

“He has got a broken arm and ribs, and cuts to his eye and arm,” said Durgham.

Only a broken arm and a few ribs, really amazing, lucky man....

“10 Years ago his brother would have found him at his front door in a small bag.”

10 years ago his entire family would have been dissolved in acid.

Lucky to be alive, after physically assaulting the President of the US. I’m not thinking it’s the SS’ finest moment.

boo hoo - so he is the victim? He needs to be lined up in front of a shoe throwing squad. Army boots count as shoes. Then he neds to be sent home with women’s undies on his head.

In the old days (Sadam’s) he would have been shot on the spot, or taken into custody and had his right hand cut off.

the broken arm and ribs will heal.

Thats what you get buddy. I bet Al-Maliki probably had a say in what happens to the guy, since he had to put his hand up to try to protect Bush. It almost looked like the second shoe touched Al-Maliki’s hand. So who was really insulted?

Saddam would have killed him (after he was tortured).

Along with his family, friends and village.

My first thought was the acid bath, too. How soon they forget.
