Israel's ambassador to Sweden is the latest politician to fall victim to a shoe thrower, reports the Jerusalem Post.
Ambassador Benny Dagan was addressing students at Stockholm University, where he had been invited to speak on the upcoming elections in Israel, when a young woman in the audience hurled a shoe at him, hitting him in the chest.
According to a statement by the International Solidarity Movement (ISM) who had members at the scene, the woman, along with a young man, then shouted "Murderers!" and "Intifada!" while pelting Dagan with books and a notepad.
Police arrested two people, a 35-year-old man and a 25-year-old woman, immediately after the incident, reports Sweden's The Local.
This is the third shoe-throwing incident recently. Former US President Bush was targeted by a shoe thrower on a visit to Iraq in December and Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao was targeted during a speech at Cambridge University earlier this month.

When I first saw the video of the shoe thrower in Iraq one of my first thoughts was about the millions of people around the planet who we're smacking their forehead (mostly figuratively I'm sure) and saying to themselves "why didn't I think of that"?

Why not? Isn't it the mission of every shaid to sacrifice himself for his peaceful religion?
How wonderful that the illegal immigrants that infest Europe are now turning it into the shit holes they ran from.

Silly Muslim culture revolving around the bottom of a shoe being the most shameful thing to be hit with.
The tally on world leaders getting shoes thrown at them continues to rise. USA, China, Israel. Next up, Russia!!!!
