An Iraqi reporter called US President George W. Bush a 'dog' in Arabic and threw his shoes at him during a news conference in Baghdad.

Bush was forced to duck to avoid the thrown shoes, one sailing over his head and smacking into the wall behind him as he stood next to the Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki. Iraqi security officers and US secret service agents leapt at the man and dragged him struggling and screaming out of the room.
