"The Shoe Intifada"
Evan Vucci/AP
The Iraqi journalist who hurled his shoes at President Bush is being hailed as a folk hero by an Iranian cleric, who is urging the people of Iran not to overlook the historical significance of what he calls "the shoe intifada." Leading Friday prayers in Tehran, Cleric Ayatollah Ahmad Jannati pronounced the flying foot apparel "more valuable than crowns, medals and signs," and urged that they be preserved for future generations to view in an Iraqi museum.
