Throwing shoes. What an advanced culture these Arabs have. The incident put me in mind of Kipling:

"...Take up the White Man's burden--
And reap his old reward:
The blame of those ye better,
The hate of those ye guard--
The cry of hosts ye humour
(Ah, slowly!) toward the light:--
'Why brought he us from bondage,
Our loved Egyptian night?'..."


etc. etc.
