p2pnet news view | Cool:- In Part XIV of the Irate Iraqi Hurls Shoes at George W. Bush saga, an Egyptian admirer has made the thrower, 29-year-old journalist Muntazer al-Zaidi, a proposal he can’t refuse.

Or can he?

“I find nothing more valuable than my daughter to offer to him, and I am prepared to provide her with everything needed for marriage,” says Saad Gumaa, according to Reuters.

And his daughter, Amal Saad Gumaa, is up for it, says the story, going on

“This is something that would honour me. I would like to live in Iraq, especially if I were attached to this hero,” she said.

Al-Zaidi’s gesture has struck a chord across the Arab world, where Mr Bush is widely despised for invading Iraq in 2003 and for his support for Israel.

Amal is a student in the media faculty at Minya University in central Egypt.

Will al-Zaidi accept?

Definitely stay tuned.

 (Thanks,  Comeomcomcast
