The people of Saudi Arabia are furious with the McDonalds fast food chain for a toy which they say desecrates the name of Muhammed, the prophet of Islam. They are demanding retribution.
According to the Arabic news website, Kermalkom.com,
[the McDonald's fast food restaurant] abused the Prophet Muhammad by placing his name at the base of a toy that is being distributed as part of the Happy Meal, a toy which steps on the name Muhammad.
The toy is a blue super hero on a blue base. The toy looks like a Mighty Morphin Power Ranger samurai warrior. The toy stand on one of its legs and the other leg hangs over the side of the base. When a lever is pressed the toys other leg smahes against the base of the toy in a stomping motion.
The Saudis are claiming that the base of the toy, where it stomps its foot, is covered with the name Muhammed. They claim the name is written several times in circles all over the base so every time it stomps it is stomping on Muhammed.

How about offering them a 50 cent coupon on a McRib sandwich?
Is happiness = anti-Muhammed?
Sorry folks.. My give a damn is busted..
Get back to me when Mohamed is in a jar of piss.
If true, this is awesome! What’s so special about the name of a 6h century sand pirate? How is this any different than an action figure that stomps on the name “Adolph”?
The cult of fear and stupid.
Just like Obamas campaign motto.
Leni
Islam is always at war with Islam
McDonald did not do a nice enough rendition of Islam for another sort of whahabi islam..
There, so, by embracing islamic moderation, we have engaged ourselves further into the islam vanity furball, accepted the beatings and the extremists now can argue with us the merits of our practices... until it all reaches a point where the “perfect mahdi” faggotness is fought for and claimed for.
Islam is not peace, it is the highway to hell and more beatings.
I’ll have to see a picture of the toy in question before I believe this. It seems like an utter farce.
Must go to McD’s and buy happy meal today!
They have free oil, now they want free hamburgers. Islam is 6th century progressed liberalism, suing for the best PC practice, surrendering to more and more extreme forms of abuse as we have gone the slippery slope of “moderation”.
There is one at the linked to story.
GOTTA GET ME ONE!
GOTTA GET MA BUNCH!!
WHERE CAN I GET ME ONE?
I’LL PAY A BUNCH!
Just Damn, bet they’ll go for a fortune on ebay.
No wonder Zero was bowing to WHahab terrorist leaders of Saudi Arabia. His deeply offended wife wants free hamburgers too, Alal perfect PC. This is exactly what Obama is doing, suing MeekyD for vanities and frivolities of pimping rights. They dont even have to go to the sophistications of communist scientific antireligious snobery PC.
Incredible! As ‘Muhammed’ is the most popular boys name in the world, how can the Mussies know which Muhammed the toy is referring to (if anyone at all)?
yep. Such a weak powerless god he is too that they feel like they have to defend him.
Or it is a random design that these folks perceive as the word Mohammed, much like the people see the Virgin Mary on a taco shell. Look at the Nike shoes with the word air written out in a flame design that supposedly looks like the word Allah. They got all worked up about tat one too.
