This just came in. A Saudi Shiekh Abu Mussab Al-Ahmed has offered $ 10 Million to buy those shoes which were thrown at BUSH. The Journalist (Muntazir Zaidi) who was not able to control his aggression towards that guy (BUSH) who destroyed his country and killed thousands of innocent people.
Bush himself expressed on number of times that going to War with Iraq was the worst decision and biggest blunder that he committed during his time as President of USA.
10 Million Dollars for the Iraqi Journalist's Shoes
The shoes of the 29-year-old correspondent of the Iraqi Al-Baghdadia TV channel, Muntadhar al-Zeidi, now cost a fortune of 10 million dollars. The incident with the shoes thrown at US President George W. Bush during his press conference with Iraqi Prime Minister in Baghdad continues to develop. Bush could avoid the shoes, but not the development of the aftermath.
It was first said that the technical director of the Iraqi football team Adnan Hamad offered $100,000 for the shoes. Hamad said that the journalists action expressed an attitude of all Iraqi people to George W. Bush the man, who ruined Iraq and abused its people.
Another Iraqi businessman said that he would be ready to pay any price for the notorious shoes. To crown it all, Saudi media reported Monday that a 60-year-old Saudi entrepreneur offered $10 million for only one shoe of the pair that had flown in Bushs direction.
In the meantime, the fate of the black size 10 shoes currently remains unknown. Iraqi security service agents might have most likely confiscated the shoes. It is not ruled out that employees of the Bushs administration might have taken them along as souvenirs from Iraq. However, if the shoe incident comes to trial and al-Zeidi is found not guilty, the journalist will have a right to claim his famous shoes back.
Muntadhar al-Zeidi currently remains under arrest. The police are trying to find out if the journalist was staying under the influence of drugs or alcohol during the notorious press conference.
Al-Zeidis deed was widely supported in the Muslim (and not only Muslim) world. The journalists brother, Dirham, said that Muntadhar had expressed the wish of millions of Iraqi citizens to insult the US tyrant. The young man added that his brother had thrown his shoes at the US president being moved with the sufferings of the Iraqi people which he was filming on camera almost every day. The majority of Muntadhars reports were devoted to Iraqi widows, orphans and children.
Dirham al-Zeidi said that he was very proud of his brother, although he was shocked to see his brother throwing his shoes at Bush. Dirham added that his brother had nothing against the American people.
The daughter of the Libyan leader Moammar Kadafi announced that she was awarding the Libyan Bravery Medal to al-Zeidi. Over 200 lawyers have set out their readiness to defend the brave Iraqi journalist at court.
The administration of Al-Baghdadia TV channel addressed Iraqi Prime Minister Maliki with a request to release Muntadhar al-Zeidi in accordance with the norms of democracy and freedom of speech, which the US authorities promised to the people of Iraq.
It goes without saying that the goal of Bushs visit to Iraq has been entirely lost behind the shoe scandal. No one wants to know what Bush arrived in Baghdad for. Everyone wants to know what happened to those shoes.
