Laura Bush heckled in Jerusalem shrine visit on Yahoo! News

Protesters jostled and harangued U.S. first lady Laura Bush on Sunday when she visited a Jerusalem shrine at the heart of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

'How dare you come in here! Why your husband kill Muslims?' one protester shouted at the first lady as Israeli police and U.S. Secret Service agents formed a tight cordon around her to keep people back. For Bush, on a Middle East goodwill tour, it was a rare close encounter with hostile demonstrators.

A small crowd of people pressed in on Bush as she entered the Dome of the Rock mosque in Jerusalem's walled Old City. One worshipper cried out as she entered: 'None of you belong in here.'

Bush, who made an appeal for peace later, did not respond to him or to an old woman inside the mosque who shouted 'Koran, Koran' at her in Arabic.

You mean to tell me, that the bushco didn't prescreen in Jerusalem?
