As the AP notes, Thursday's shoe-throwing incident is reminiscent of what happened to then-President George W. Bush in December 2008. Bush was holding a news conference in Baghdad when an Iraqi journalist hurled two shoes at him — an act consider to be an insult in Arab cultures. Bush dodged the projectiles.
