what he did is obvious wrong, no manner at all.
If he want to protest or complain about the administration,maybe he can write it in some other ways.

Muntadar al Zaidi is a hero, and for your information, The brand name that sells Muntader's shoes has "Doubled" their shoes sales coz their shoes has been thrown at a "war criminal" George W Bush...

And Carolyn, pease do not talk about manners and if you really want to write a complain just do it secretly.. But for us we want to show our enemies the least of what we can do "they're not welcome and we'll threw our shoes at them" :) as I told you before, go read a book or something and don't talk about what you dont know "MANNERS!!!"...

If some one shoots my whole family and shut down my country, the least I can do is throwing my shoes at their president!!! LONG LIVE ZAIDI !! YOUR THE MAN!!! LET THE SHOES TALK NOW!!! YOUR THE MAN!!!
