To appreciate why Obama gave him a hug rather than a handshake, here are some quotes from Mr. Erdogan:
"Mosques are our barracks, minarets our bayonets, domes our helmets, the believers our soldiers.""There is no moderate Islam. Islam is Islam and that’s that”
"{Democracy is like a tram/bus:} You ride it until you arrive at your destination, then you step off."
"Assimilation is a crime against humanity..."
I think they should “get a room.”
“{Democracy is like a tram/bus:} You ride it until you arrive at your destination, then you step off.”
They’re playin’ the US for all it’s worth, then they will step off because Islam is Islam.
Can’t we all see that we are in deep trouble?
Is that an IED in your pocket or have you been reading Larry Sinclair's book?
“O” reverting to type! Or...maybe there wasn’t room to bow.
honestly, people not putting the dots together here is due to 1) our media not giving them any info to do so and 2) some small% of folks will be willfully blind no matter what this guy does.
The big problem, though, is the media.
Something is going on.
Iran?
Why is the “Sick Man” of Europe part of the G-20?
“Birds of a feather clump together!!!!”
As for commentator Stephen Schwartz, he is himself a muslim (islamic name, Suleyman Ahmad al-Kosovi) and a gold-plated Serbophobe:

What he says about Erdogan is pretty much true, except he leaves out that Erdogan is a Serbophobe, too. (Don’t let Erdogan’s feigned friendship with Serbia’s current quisling government fool you.)
We should have taken the Serbophobes and quislings (that includes the quisling obama) out with the trash years ago!!!!
Foreign policy FAIL.
...who later told reporters, "President Obama made me feel uncomfortable."
