Well-intentioned levity is always welcome.

I guess that would really depend on the leanings of sect was interpreting it, extremist, fundamentalist, or conservative. ;)
If you read the article, looks like she's got the multi-cultural Barbie line...in the picture there is a Barbie in Japanese style clothing, one next to it in Indian style clothing...to say that this is wrong after there was the Fulla line of dolls is pushing it a bit...If you think it's offensive, don't buy one.

Where's "Christian Barbie, Jewish Barbie, Hindu Barbie or Bhuddist Barbie"?What the heck, wheres "Atheist Barbie of Satanic Barbie"?

The "extremities" of Sharia law are all-thanks to the interpretation of "scholars" such as Bin Laden. Make them follow the European Convention of Human Rights and they will make it look barbaric too.
