In Jordan

In Jordan, the government arrested citizen because he tossed a shoe at a table where the prime minister was supposed to speak.  He would be put on trial, it is said, for "contempt toward the symbols of the state".  Do you notice that manners and absurdities of pro-US Arab absolutism never gets covered in the Western press?  They are really protected which proves my theory: Western media follow the dictates and inclinations of Western governments in foreign policy especially in the Middle East region. That was not the case in full only decades ago.
