So, they tortured him.


The shoe-chucker Muntazer al-Zaidi, Iraq's new hero, has apparently written a letter saying he is very sorry for throwing his shoes at outgoing US president George W. Bush.

The man who, only a few days ago, yelled at Bush:

"This is a farewell kiss from the Iraqi people, you dog! This is for the widows and orphans and all those killed in Iraq."

The only reason Zaidi is sorry for speaking the truth and warming millions of peoples' hearts by humiliating George Bush on his final visit to the site of his biggest human catastrophe, is because the 'free' Iraqi government has tortured him into doing so. I wouldn't be surprised to learn they've made threats on his family, either.
