Iraq: shoe sculpture in honour of Muntadar al-Zaidi!!!

A sculpture of an enormous bronze-coloured shoe has been erected in Iraq to honour the journalist who threw his shoes at ex-US President George W Bush. 

The sofa-sized artwork was formally unveiled in Tikrit, hometown of late Iraqi ruler Saddam Hussein. 

Artist Laith al-Amari insisted it was not a political work, but a "source of pride for all Iraqis". More...
