The White House is denying that the president bowed to King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia at a G-20 meeting in London, a scene that drew criticism on the right and praise from some Arab outlets.
"It wasn't a bow. He grasped his hand with two hands, and he's taller than King Abdullah," said an Obama aide, who spoke on the condition of anonymity.
Obama wished to demonstrate his respect and appreciation of the personality of King Abdullah Bin Abdulaziz, who has made one of the most important calls in the modern era, namely the call for inter-faith and inter-cultural dialogue to defuse the hatred, conflict and wars," wrote the columnist, Muhammah Diyab.

I just read that, now they are trying to cover up the bow, oh yes let us protect our perfect king! I looked & looked at that picture & if that isn't a bow then he has some serious hump issues with his body. That is exactly what it is, just another reason I dislike that man & hope that 4 years goes really fast before he destroys the USA!
Of course!! His knees are bending, he's leaning over, while "shaking hands", they should look in the dictionary. Dictionary 2009: I'm sure this picture will be in place of any definition there.
