Jerusalems Hemliga Vapen

Saudi Arabia’s religious police (“the muttawa”)
have declared Barbie dolls a threat to morality,
complaining that the revealing clothes of the
“Jewish” toy – already banned in the Kingdom
and Prevention of Vice, as the religious police
are officially known, lists the dolls on a section
of its Web site devoted to items deemed offensive
to the conservative Saudi interpretation of Islam.

“Jewish Barbie dolls, with their revealing clothes
and shameful postures, accessories and tools, are
a symbol of decadence from the decadent West.
Let us beware of her dangers and be careful,”
said a poster on the site.
