I just read that article that was linked from Drudge. Here's a bit more about it and it clearly shows that the muslim gets the hug and everyone else gets handshake or less: An interesting bit from White House reporter Tangi Quéméner's latest pool report from the G-20 in Cannes, France: [President Obama] entered the room at 1:15 and took to his left, heading to Angela Merkel and Nicolas Sarkozy. They chatted for a few seconds before British Prime minister David Cameron joined them. Hard to understand what they were saying amid the cameras noise. POTUS then took a stroll to Australian Premier Julia Gillard who got a hug as European president Herman van Rompuy, European Commission Jose Manuel Barroso and Turkish PM Recep Tayyip Erdogan were watching. Eventually the Europeans got a handshake but Erdogan got the hug treatment. POTUS then walked all the way around after noticing that "people are really far away around there". He stopped for quick handshakes and reached out to President Hu of China, telling him 'ni hao' (hello). They cordially shook hands and posed for photographers...POTUS then greeted his Argentinian counterpart Cristina Kirchner who just got reelected without runoff. Angela Merkel was just congratulating her (in English). "So Nicolas, we all have to take lessons" of Kirchner's victory, joked POTUS, who's up for reelection in '12, as Sarkozy is (next May). Isn't this whole scene pretty standard for President Obama? The Europeans get a handshake and the Islamist Turkish prime minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan gets a hug. And all the president seems to have in mind is campaign politics and his reelection effort. Read more: weeklystandard.com

Obama (Literally) Embraces Anti-Israel, Pro-Iran Islamist on the World Stage ....................................................................................................... by Joel B. Pollak Nov 3rd 2011 bigpeace.com That’s Islamist Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan hugging it out with the President of the United States today at the G-20 summit in France. Photo source: Weekly Standard Our European allies, by contrast, received simple handshakes. Never mind the apparent breach of protocol–what does this demonstrate about Barack Obama’s worldview? At least he didn’t bow.
