Protests in Iraq support shoe thrower

By Ken Sury | Tuesday, December 16, 2008, 11:09 AM

CNN reports that protesters across Iraq today are urging government authorities to free the TV correspondent who threw his shoes at President George W. Bush.

CNN says: Hundreds of students at Diyala University in Baquba carried banners demanding the release of Muntadhar al-Zaidi — described by demonstrators as an “honorable Iraqi.”

Smaller protests emerged in the Anbar province city of Falluja and in two Baghdad locations — Baghdad University in the northern part of the city and western Baghdad’s Ameriya district. In those events, students also took to the streets.
