I heard one report where they said they weren't pulling the dolls off the shelf. The little girl on the back looks foreign with a wig on. I guess to sell it to "typical" American girls.

Allahu Akbar, I have been enlightened.

People will think whatever they want to think it says. I think it sounds like "His mom is the wife."

I'm skeptical. It has the ring of backward masking and the Johnson and Johnson symbol to it. I don't recall every hearing or reading the phrase "Islam is the light" in an Islamic religious context. I was an Arabic linguist and have had some cultural and literary exposure. I could be wrong, but I've never heard it. Besides, it doesn't sound like a clear enunciation of the phrase. To me, the similarity is more from the power of suggestion. Who was the maker? Matel? It seems unlikely that a traditional American toy company that gets its supply most likely from China would be trying to subliminally convert America's children to Islam.

Just my own sniff test.

Oh, looks like it was Fisher-Price, but Mattel owns it, or vice-versa.

Anyway, this seems like a good opinion about it, to me.
