Obama and the King: a right royal bow row
Barack Obama bows to Saudi King King Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz Al Saud
Conservative American commentators have accused Barack Obama of "grovelling" to an Arab monarch at the G20 summit in London.
A photo and video footage of the US President bowing to Saudi Arabian King Abdullah at yesterday's G20 meet-and-greet has been doing the rounds on the internet today.
Mr Obama appears to shake the King's hand and then bow from the waist while French President Nicholas Sarkozy looks on.
Leading conservative blogger Michelle Malkin and Dakota Voice both wrote of their outrage at the President's deference to a foreign monarch.
"The whole thing is embarrassing. Its like the `American Hillbillies go to Europe'," Malkin wrote.
"He is throwing American power and prestige out with both hands as fast as he can."
Dakota Voice contributor Bob Ellis said the bow was a gesture of submission.
"The leader of the most free nation in the world should not be slobbering on the ring of some king," Ellis wrote.
But American etiquette expert Gloria Starr, who has met the King's wife and hosted two of their daughters in her finishing schools, told smh.com.au there was nothing wrong with Mr Obama's display of deference.
"I think it was a sign of respect and in no way diminishes the ranking of the President or indicates the greater strength of the one being bowed to," Ms Starr said.
"I bowed, wore the attire, ate the figs as a sign of respect when I was in Saudi.
"I applaud the President for showing this courtesy."
Former president George Bush was criticised for holding the hand of then-crown prince Abdullah during the monarch's visit to America four years ago.
But Obama's gaffe did not rate a mention in the mainstream US media, despite Michelle Obama's tactile approach to the Queen at the same function.
The Times noted: "Protocol dictates that no one should touch the Queen - as the Australian Paul Keating learnt to his cost - but she seemed comfortable with Michelle Obama's embrace at Buckingham Palace."
Keating was blasted by the British media and branded the "Lizard of Oz" when pictures emerged of him putting a friendly arm around the Queen to guide her through a function at Parliament House in Canberra in 1992.

My prediction for 2009: North America will suffer another 9-11
By Michael Travis | Sunday, January 4, 2009
Watching the American MainStreamMedia®, represented by Fox-News, CNN, ABC-NBC-CBS etc., during these perilous times...has sickened me. As the MSM® gleefully provides a soapbox for the most vile of jihadists and their Jew-hating supporters [Commentators?], I am reminded of the Spring and Summer of 2001.
During that time, almost eight years ago, American media denied their audience important truths about Palestinian attacks in Israel, and the organised Jihad against the West. While our buses were being blown-up, and our children were being slaughtered at discotheques, the American public heard next to nothing. When the American President angrily screeched to Israeli reporters that the murders of Israelis was “not terrorism”.....our American friends heard nothing. When our [Israeli] security services tried to warn of impending attacks against American interests......the Administration, and MSM®, refused to listen.
Then came 9-11.
The situation in 2009 is eerily reminiscent of those dangerous days leading up to the attacks of 9-11. The MSM® has enrolled the American public in their “Mushroom Club” and the Administration is playing along by using terms like “ceasefire” and “monitoring”. “Ceasefires” have been used against Israel, and to empower the Islamic world, in 1956, 1967, 1973, 1984, 1994, and throughout the new century. “Monitoring” translates as putting massive Arab military forces on the borders of Israel...within the West Bank and Gaza. The MainStreamMedia® in concert with the “International Community” is closing in for the kill.
The “Final Solution” to the Arab-Israeli Conflict is being put in motion while we are pre-occupied with Paris Hilton and the Comedy Network.
And then what?
Empowered by organised Jew-Hatred and suicidal political correctness, the pro-terror lobby and a massive 5th column of stealth jihadists have taken to the streets of America and Europe. Calls to “Put the Jews in Ovens” and “Nuke Israel” are heard in Florida, New York, Chicago, and throughout the United States.
Complicit in the siege of Israel and the West, the Media has chosen not to report the Islamic revolution on American territory. The American public is being targeted along with the Israelis, and like the run-up to the 9-11 attacks, they are being denied the truth about the threat.
My prediction for 2009; North America will suffer another 9-11, and the public, led by a traitorous MainStreamMedia® , will pretend to be surprised.
