According to the Saudis, the designs that appear all around the base, where the figure stomps its foot, is really the name “Muhammed” written several times in circles.
Saudi Arabians are angry at a McDonald’s toy which they say mocks their prophet Muhammad. According to a report appearing today (5/27/12) on 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 consists of a blue superhero figurine (apparently a Power Ranger Samurai; click here for pictures). It stands on one leg, and, when the lever is pressed, it pounds on the base with the other leg. According to the Saudis, the designs that appear all around the base, where the figurine stomps its foot, is really the name “Muhammad” written several times in circles.
The toy had been distributed a few days before Saudi children and their parents began to take note of the name. Soon thereafter, Saudi Muslims launched several campaigns against McDonald’s in “response to the savage attacks on the noble Prophet,” under banners like “Help your Prophet!” and “Together in support of the Prophet.”
Saudis, “demanding the strongest possible punishment for the restaurant” and insisting that “they will not be silent until this is realized,” further complained how such an obvious insult could pass the supervision of the management at McDonalds.
In response, “Saudi McDonald’s” has withdrawn the toy from all its restaurants, “in order to safeguard against any accusations or misunderstandings.”
Imagine that- insulting a murderous pedophile! Off with their heads!
Oh, kind'a like playing the rock 'n roll record backwards to hear the Satanic message?
Like ‘facts’ would help resolve this issue.
: )
I think that the reason we don't 'see' it 'right' is because it was written in 'cursive'.
: )
Looks very similar to when I tried to write my name in the snow while taking a leak.
So does the 'signature' of most doctors on a 'prescription'.
That and also Elvis’s personal messages from his recordings.
He foretold that we would one day have a president dummer than Carter and predicted 1/20/2009.
Uncanny!
Our facts might help but theirs wouldn’t.
Do they have any facts?
Cursive!
Yes.
The prophets proclaimed that a light in the sky would guide the wise men to the new Messiah.
The wise men followed that 'star', that 'light' to Bethlehem.
Afterward, that 'star' crashed into the desert. Some native there picked it up and started worshipping it.
The crumbling remains of the meteor are the main focus of worship and reside here.
This is the basis of their religion. A burnt out meteorite.

That’s one mighty pretty toilet seat!
They should shut up and eat another McRib.
Well... it is the only toilet seat in their 'nation'.
Instead of sitting on it, the people stick their head in it and kiss the germ-encrusted burnt out meteorite.
Anyway, that's why they chrome-plated it. Pretty, and easier to clean.
The alleged black meteorite fell at Adam’s feet and was rediscovered by Abraham. That’s their story. The black (burnt umber) stone they worship in Mecca has never been analyzed.
Years ago I read that Muslims would find black stones and covet them as holy, causing sporadic crimes, assaults and robberies. It wouldn’t surprise me if it is still happening today.
What are all the slash marks? Adornment?
Yo Dude!
Its a generational thing. In my time, it was just a form of salutation.
Calling some “out”? Since when did that happen?
Methinks you look too deep into a shallow pool to find things that don’t exit.
Cartan explained his thoughts on the matter, nuff said. OTOH, I’ve seen threads get locked that where so wildly different it left you to scratch your head and wonder what the Lords of the Admins were imbibing that day.
Just a small thing. Nothing to get up about.
Vote for Obama?
Even more “too much” drama!
