An Egyptian parliamentarian has garnered support on social media after throwing his shoe at a famous lawmaker once the latter entered the parliament on Sunday.

Kamal Ahmed made his moves after Tawfik Okasha, who is also a television presenter and owner of the Satellite political-commentary channel Faraeen, hosted an Israeli ambassador for dinner at his home on Wednesday.

I couldn't tell what was going on the entire time. It did remind me of GWB dodging shoes like a decade ago. I'll give him credit for that... being good at dodging shoes.
