Because Erdogan has agreed with the new NATO general secretary Rasmussen from Denmark he gets five things:
1. Rasmussen has to apologize for the Mohammed cartoons at yearly meeting of the alliance of civilizations in Istanbul.
2. Denmark has to go after the Kurd opposition in Denmark inclusive their TV station Roj TV.
3. Rasmussen's attorney in fact will be a Turk.
4. A high NATO position with responsibility for Afghanistan will be filled with a Turk.
5. An office responsible for controll of demobilization will be filled with a Turk.
Obama must be the hero for the Muslims.
