The nation of Islam can breathe easy
"Iran - Meet Dara and Sara, Iran's answer to Ken and Barbie. The Muslim dolls have been developed by a government agency to promote traditional values, with their modest clothing and pro-family backgrounds. They are widely seen as an effort to counter the American dolls and accessories that have flooded the Iranian market. Toy seller Masoumeh Rahimi welcomed the dolls, saying Barbie was "foreign to Iran's culture" because some of the buxom, blonde dolls have revealing clothing."Here is the problem. What kind of accessories do these toys come with? Cars, bikes, mosques? A hypothetical for you. Obviously the toy car is meant for Dara to drive. What if some kid decided Sara will be behind the wheel? What do you do! Iran will probably string up the 7 year old girl in the Town Square to make an example out of her. A woman driving? Are you out of your mind? Plastic or real, that don't fly in Iran. They will have to put a mechanism in Sara, so when you seat her behind the wheel, you get electrocuted. Not so bad that you die, but a hospital visit if recommended.
