A shoe for a heel

The chucking of the honor shoe. Next to the honor killing, it’s the most ancient of Islamic traditions.

Iraqi journalist Muntadar al-Zaidi, who threw a shoe at President George W. Bush, gets a taste of his own sandal after a man who felt dishonored by the journalist’s actions against Bush pelted al-Zadir with a shoe during a press conference.

Let’s just thank Allah that there isn’t an underwear-flinging custom in the Middle East.
