Far from a joke, many in the Mideast saw the act by an Iraqi journalist as heroic, expressing the deep, personal contempt many feel for the American leader they blame for years of bloodshed, chaos and the suffering of civilians.

Hughes, who will be in Manila this week, is in the forefront of the Bush administration’s war on ideas that breed intolerance, extremism and terrorism.
