Barbie in a Burka

LOL! What’s so oppressing about dressing modestly?

Perhaps this is another breakthrough in mainstream brands marketing to Muslims. Mattel did it on their 50th anniversary.

Britain’s biggest Barbie fan Angela Ellis said of the show: “Bring it on Burka Barbie, I think this is a great idea.”

The 35 year old from Cheshire who has a collection of more than 250 dolls — added: “I think this is really important for girls, wherever they are from they should have the opportunity to play with a Barbie that they feel represents them.”

Brigitte Gabriel, you just officially won “hater of the year award”.

        Hey Jason, I think you misunderstood what I meant.

        TheOnion.com makes videos that are obviously a joke. And Fox News is definitely a joke.

        And also I am a Muslim. Take care.

    Brigitte Gabriel is obviously deranged and needs immediate psychiatric help. Has Fox lost so much respect that it must go to the insane asylum to find people willing to be guests on their ‘news’ channel?

    i couldnt bare to listen to that womens rant, but wanted to say that the ‘fullah’ doll isnt new, its been in the middle east for some time. And if the west can rant and rave about ‘covered’ dolls, then the eastern world could likewise offer a ranting about ‘bare skin’ dolls brainwashing young girls. Have you seen Bratz dolls? tell me, what liberty do they promote? Subhannallah, how sad that such people like that lady get air time.
    Im gonna have to go look at your post about Muhammad Sohail and the robber to get me happy again!!

    Fox News is disgusting. And miss gabriel is your freedom in your chest thats falling out of your shirt? Im a muslim woman in the U.S. raised here my whole life and I wear the hijab and cover my body, I am not an ornament for men to look at. My body is for myself only. I love wearing hijab, not only has the disrespect from men almost come to a complete end but I have finally been able to grow and realize who I am and become incredible confident. Gabriel just shut your ignorant mouth and go back to fixing your shirt just right so your cleavage is hanging for all to see, nasty.

    Also, @ under cover sis, the Bratz dolls are ridiculous! Any right minded parent, regardless of religion, would have to be insane to let their child even look at those dolls. Basically a prostitute barbie.

    Seeing all this negativity about Islam just makes me love my religion more. Gone to pray Isha!
    Allah yihdeehowm!

    What about the nuns…Who is forcing them to wear their burkas!!!!

    That woman’s sucha loser. But I don’t think dressing in a burka is modest, it’s too much for a doll. Give her an abaya and an amira hijab.

    I am so happy for this information. Thanks you for this great job.
