[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 449690, member: 2189"] :happy-very: @ the video. Curly, the greatest of the Stooges IMO. In muslim world, showing your shoe soul to someone is a sign of extreme disrespect and throwing your shoe is of an even greater disrespect. Among Palestinians, there was talk of doing the same to Condi Rice as she is not very respected there either but I guess no one was ever brave enough to step up. In the west, we'd shoot someone the bird or tell them to go "friend" off to disrespect them and to toss a shoe would be considered purely as a weak attempt at some physical assault if not a waste of a good shoe. Although obviously not equal in terms of impact, like the symbolism of the attack on the World Trade Center, NY itself & the Pentagon using planes with the names "United" & "American" so among the muslim world does this have symbology. We may not get it and I'm sure of that, the message in the muslim world was loud and clear. [/QUOTE]
