Unless I'm missing something, it didn't say the toy was pro-Osama. Could it be that the intent is for the kids to play war against Osama? If so, there have been plenty of cases like that. In the 1940's, most comic books had anti-Nazi themes and even used Hitler as the enemy. So did the Looney Tunes! And, if I'm not mistaken, G.I. Joe had some Soviet enemies in the 1980's. What's the big deal?

I was thinking the same thing, the Osama "action figure" would make a good nemesis for a kid with GI JOE figures, someone for Joe to kick around. Better yet, put Barbie's panties on Osama's head and have Barbie pull him around on a leash! ;)
