The world agrees with the shoe thrower

Photos featuring US President George W. Bush (R) with Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan (L) are covered in shoes left by demonstrators who marched to the US embassy to protest in Ankara. The Iraqi journalist arrested for throwing his shoes at Bush has written to Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki apologising over the incident, Maliki's office said on Thursday.
