Journalist throws shoe at Chidambaram
A Sikh journalist threw a shoe at home minister Palaniappan Chidambaram during a news conference on Tuesday after getting angry with his reply to a question on 1984 riots in which hundreds of Sikhs were killed.
Three years after grabbing the spotlight by throwing his shoe at US President George Bush during a press conference in Baghdad, Iraqi journalist Montazar Al Zaidi is in the land of Mahatma Gandhi hawking the philosophy it's better to throw shoes, rather than bombs, at extremist forces.
