Hello everyone, i know that this lop issue is like beating a dead horse and still beating him after he has been turned into glue! Here is what will happen and i hope finally we can stop talking about this issue! There is a better chance of someone finding big foot than there are of iraq lopping. Here is how it is going to go down, grab a pen………………..ok. Iraq is going to give the investor a modest rate some were between $ .84-1.60 they are going to give us a certain time frame to cash-in somewere in the neighborhood of 45-90 days. Once iraq gets all there dinar back they will do what anyone who wants to turn a profit would do, raise the value to its true worth $2.50-3.00 and with the 10-15 trillion in circulation in the hands of the average person iraq will profit 10-15 trillion at the least, you guys catching on yet, and then they will be able to pay all there debt and build their private sector!!!

If their is no rule of law, THEN it's OK to throw shoes at Foreign leaders.To say he was the "occupier" is an opinion that doesn't fit with reality. Too bad but this is the way societies have to work, otherwise it's chaos. His excuses could just as well be the same if he murdered someone.

This man doesn't deserve 3 years.
He doesn't even deserve one year.
He was even beaten by security after it happened and held in jail waiting for his trial.
This was an act of protest, not violence against a person.
I hope Bush does the decent thing and ask the Iraqi government for leniency.
Even he didn't feel this was any kind of threat.
I know a LOT of Americans who wouldn't mind tossing a Hush Puppy in Georges direction.
The beating was enough. Let this guy out of jail.

The sentence the Iraqy drew for throwing shoes at Bush is deserved - he missed his target.
