The Hero Who Made Bush's Head a 'Playground for His Shoes'

"Al-Zaidi's actions not only represent the act of a single individual, but are a reflection of the vehement feelings and desires of all Iraqis, who hate nothing more than they hate George Bush."

A call for solidarity with the heroic Iraqi journalist, Muntadhar al-Zaidi, who made Bush's head a playground for his shoes.

The Iraq News Network has saluted the manly and courageous stand taken by that dutiful and genuine son of the Iraqi people, journalist Muntadhar al-Zaidi. Al-Zaidi transformed the head of U.S. President George W. Bush into a playground for a pair of shoes. Al-Zaidi's actions sent Bush reeling from right to left - despite attempts by the leader of the al-Sistani government, Nouri al-Malaki, to defend his master with his right hand. The call for solidarity, issued on behalf of the editor-in-chief of the Iraq News Network, Mr. Diaa' al-Kawwaz, and his entire staff, said that this precious Iraqi had cleansed the hearts of Iraqis with cool water and healed their chests of a pain that percolated within like the melting of iron in a boiling cauldron. Their pain and suffering was caused by the criminal Bush, a result of his occupation and his work to destroy Iraq by all means possible in the name of a counterfeit democratic liberation and deceptive slogans, which served no one but the Americans and the groups that came with them to govern the land of the two rivers [the Euphrates and the Tigris], and whose people will remain immune to the greedy invaders.

CHAOS AS PRESIDENT BUSH ATTACKED WITH SHOES

The Network said that the president of the al-Sistani government, Nouri al-Malaki, bore responsibility for guaranteeing al-Zaidi's security and well-being. The Network also called for al-Zaidi's immediate release from custody, saying that his actions not only represent the act of a single individual, but reflect the vehement feelings and desires of all Iraqis, who hate nothing more than they hate George Bush and who have been left to languish by the Iraqi government. The Network called for all human rights organizations as well as print, radio and television outlets to stand in solidarity with this noble Iraqi and press to win his release from the hands of Bush's secret service, who will try to use coercive measures against him to satisfy Bush and repair the situation, which provided rich material for jokes when Bush's guards acted with such confusion and stupidity after the surprise attack.
