Saudi King Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz al-Saud (C-R) and US President Barack Obama (C-L) review an honour guard during a welcoming ceremony at the King Khaled international airport in Riyadh on 3 June 2009.
In which Obama showed disprect towards the Saudi King by walking briskly in front of him, instead of staying beside the King or walk behind him; which is royal protocol.
This was found to be appauling by many within the Islamic world for Obama's lack of respect towards Saudi King Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz al-Saud; who also is the caretaker of the two holiest sites in Islam, Makkah and Medina.
