George W Bush was finally given a fitting reply by a journalist when he threw a boot at the President of US, the most powerful nation on earth. Call it ShoeGate controversy.
A proud journo used his WMD(weapons of mass destruction), a humble shoe on the most powerful person on earth.
It was one of the most defining moment of Iraqi pride and anger. Watch the video on Timesnow
However, this is event is also an easy way out for US troops in Iraq. They will not have an additional reason to remove their troops out when it was the time to build the country which they destroyed.
I hope it is not another event planned by US to ease itself out of the situation in Iraq. It got into a mess and now might wish to disown it.
Amreican would think the president is an proud american would took an iraqi boot for the nation and Iraqi people would bask in the glory of true son of the soil act by a proud person. It might be a win-win situation after all.
Only time shall tell if America finally does withdraw its troops from Iraq.
What it would not be able to do is to erase the memories of its wrong done to people of Iraq. This wounds would keep coming back to Americans for time to come.
