The Associated Press, among many others, have investigated - here's their report:Parents are outraged about the messages they're hearing from a doll. It's Fisher-Price's "Little Mommy Real Loving Baby Cuddle and Coo" doll.
Some people claim they can hear it mumble "Satan is king" in one track; then clearly speak "Islam is the light" in another.
I've also uploaded the audio of the Dawah Doll to Listen Islam, for your listening pleasure. Wal-Mart has already pulled it from the shelves, but Target says it's keeping it in stock, so tomorrow I need to go out and get me one of these babies immediately. Naturally, our corporate pawns at Fisher Price have been instructed to engage in taqqiya and deflect questions about the Dawah Doll:
'The only scripted word the doll says is 'mama.'" --Juliette Reashor, Senior Mgr. Public Relations, Fisher-Price
Well done, dhimmi!
Debbie Schlussel is on to us, but no one takes her seriously, so no worries, the grand plan to indoctrinate the toddlers of America is proceeding apace.

I work at Wal-mart and they still have them on our shelves.
What I heard was not actually clear, but just imagine if it really did say Islam is the light?! I can see why most typical Americans would feel the way they do, but that's only because the religion is so foreign and scary to them. Maybe instead of just listening to the media, they should find out themselves what is Islam is all about before getting so hasty!
I can see why most Americans would be upset to hear it saying "Islam is the light", but myself I couldn't hear it clearly. These comments are from Americans who are unfortunately not educated and are listening to the media in which case is not always telling the truth about Islam. Instead, they should be trying to learn what Islam is all about before acting so hasty.
Much ado about nothing. It really reminds me of my time in a local store's toy department when the talking Teletubbies dolls arrived. I think it was the red one (Po?) that said faggot faggot.
The lunatic fringe is alive and well. It's sad that there are people out there who have nothing better to do other than to make up weird lies involving Islam.
