Mark Steyn's "crystal ball"

Welcome to the Islamic Republic of Sweden...
Twenty minutes into the lecture, a red shoe was hurled at Dagan, followed by cries of "murderer!" and "intifada!" Subsequently the ambassador was hit by a notepad and two books.

The man and woman who threw the objects were detained for assault and creating a public disturbance.

The ambassador returned to his lecture soon after the incident and was heckled by the audience during the remainder of his speech.
