Howard in shoe-throwing incident

FORMER Australian prime minister John Howard has had shoes thrown at him during an episode of the ABC's Q&A. 0

In echoes of the infamous incident in which former US president George Bush had two shoes thrown at him during a trip to Iraq in 2008, Mr Howard came under attack as he defended Australia's involvement in the war.0

After explaining that he supported the US-led invasion based on the intelligence available at the time, Mr Howard was approached by the protester who removed his shoes and threw them in his direction.0

As they failed to hit their target, the man shouted words to the effect: "That is for Iraqi dead."0

A female audience member then shouted: "You've got blood on your hands", before walking out of the studio.0

The man was led away by ABC staff.0

Mr Howard appeared unfazed.0

"It's all right, don't worry. Forget it, forget it. Relax," he said, turning to show host Tony Jones.0

An audience member then told Mr Howard "if that's all they've got to throw at you, you've got nothing to worry about".0

Speaking on the ABC's Lateline immediately after Q&A, Nationals Senate leader Barnaby Joyce said someone like Mr Howard would always divide opinion.0

"He's a dynamic character, one of the greatest prime ministers this nation will ever see," Senator Joyce said.0

"And people who are dynamic and people who have presence will always have the people who love them and the people who dislike them.0

"And every crowd's got a fool and you had one their in your studio tonight."0

It's not the first time Mr Howard has had shoes thrown at him.0

He reportedly had a Doc Martin boot hurled at him as he prepared to deliver a speech to Cambridge University in 2009.0

The strangest thing was that Howard seemed unfazed after the incident, saying it didn't affect him. Doesn't he know that the shoe didn't have to hit him physically for the insult/harm/damage to occur?
The man who threw the shoes said his aim was to humiliate Howard, adding "and I think I achieved that". He also said "this is to say that not all Australians agree with the war on Iraq". This is a fact a lot of Arabs don't know. But the truth is plain to see by all honorable human beings.0

Thank you for your comments. 0 :)))
