Astonishing. No other word can capture the malificient nature and magnitude of the recent video of President George W. Bush bobbing and weaving like Muhammed Ali in his prime to avoid getting hit by shoes thrown at him by a left wing Iraqi journalist. The lack of accountability coupled with the mere fact that the president was almost injured, albeit by the sole of a shoe, prompts questions of how secure our president is. Although the story has been covered ad nasuem, and microanalyzed from angles, the idea that the shoe was used purposely because of what it represents in Iraqi culture, is revealing. The perception of Iraqii citizens concerning the conditions of their homeland, has undoubtely been doctored by an American press that seeks to present Iraqii's as feeling free. Often times, it hard to not accept a stance that logically depicts a country once under the rigid regime of Sadaam Hussein as one that feel liberated, however, no matter how hard this current administration denotes the war in Iraq as succcessful, it is images like these that make an informed American public think contrarily. It also portrays one universal truth, that in some cases, one simply can't hide the truth Although one video is not nearly enough to conclude that the nation we currently deploy troops to is unhappy, the type animosity and frustration in that video may resignate in the mind of more than one angered journalist.
Btw, the whereabouts of the journalist now have been reported as "unknown."
