Which is worse? Being pro-Islam or pro-sadomasochism? Well Mattel -- the maker of Barbie and Hot Wheels -- is being indirectly accused of being pro-Islamic by OneNewsNow and Olive Tree Ministries, and being accused of being by the Concerned Women For America (CWA) of foisting exploitation of women with the new the Black Canary Barbie -- "otherwise known as 'Dominatrix Barbie.'"

First, from OneNewsNow comes the piece Toy giant promoting Islam? From the article:

    Some concerned parents have contacted the Mattel toy company with allegations that one of its dolls utters words which promote Islam.

    The Little Mommy Cuddle 'n Coo dolls are manufactured by Fisher-Price, which is part of the Mattel toy empire. However, a number of parents contacted the company when they heard the doll say these words: "Islam is the light."
