Shoe thrown at Iranian president in Egypt

According to a video, a man threw a shoe at Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad when he was leaving the Al Hussein Mosque in Cairo (Egypt).

Shoe-throwing in Muslims countries is an act of utmost disrespect to a person. An Iraqi journalist in Baghdad threw a boot at US President George Bush on December 14, 2008. The thrower was detained, only to be released after.

The best Iraqi lawyers offered the shoe-thrower of Baghdad free service.

Ahmadinejad’s visit to Egypt has become the first visit of a high-ranking Iranian official to the country in the last 33 years. Ahmadinejad invited Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi to visit Tehran.
