Hijab Barbie: Useful Idiots of Cultural Jihad

When I was a child I used my dolls to playact my dreams: I made it dance, I made it cook, I made it ride a horse, motorbike, Aeroplane.
The Muslim child can strip her doll bare and feel the freedom of western women. She can tie its legs so it won't have FGM reined down on it.
Her doll can grow to an adult age where it can choose a mate to marry.
Or
She can cover its whole face with the niqab.

Any American woman that subscribes to this ideology is just plain stupid. Wake up! Read about this hijab requirement in countries under sharia law. Read what happens to the women that might disagree with this requirement to completely cover their body, or suffer X number of lashes!

Mattel are a total disgrace - Supporting the subjugation of women and promoting islam in the West. This hateful, misogynist, totalitarian rubbish in not wanted in any civilised country. We must fight to rid ourselves of this global menace against freedom and decency.

EXCELLENTLY STATED TRUTHS!!
Truth welcomes scrutiny - Islam abhors it!!

To me she looks like she's planning to join an imaginary trip to Mars with NASA. Now all she needs is a helmet and off she goes to nowhere, as humans cannot leave this planet...

If they are looking for 'sheroes', they should make an IDF Barbie. I would have been happy to get one of those for my daughter when she was of an age for dolls. Those young women are really worth having as role models.

Barbie has been politicized and weaponized into an izzzlamic issue. Another cudgel for a supremacist, totalitarian ideology wanting to imposing its culture on western society. The West must blindly submit to all fetishes rendered sacrosanct by Islam. This is how sharia imposes its dogma on non-believers, drip by drip by drip by drip by drip by drip ..........

Let's be real here. Sure Muslims might buy this kind of doll for their daughters. The small number of virtue signaling mothers in the West who are desperate to brainwash their kids into intolerant diversity and all that, MIGHT buy this doll for their daughters - but the vast majority of us will not be buying it.

Even those who have no particular opinions in either direction regarding the hijab and Muslims etc - they won't buy a hijab barbie. I'm a blonde, white Westerner female - growing up I had a couple of barbies. Never the ones that didn't look like me though. What would've been the point?

Mattel are just trying to scam a whole new group of consumers to their claws and the virtue signalers amongst us are cheering all the way, without the intelligence to realize that this is just a profit making exercise, nothing else at the end of the day. Mattel managed to avoid giving Barbie a realistic figure all these decades - you really think they're going to risk their business profits over some identity politics?

Its all about money. It always has been and always will be.

This makes me react with bit of irony, so this is my question: When does Mattel plan to release the new toy called "Jihad Ken"? Just asking, 'cause, who's going to stone Hijab Barbie to death, when some little Muslim girl removes her headscarf...

Well, my daughters got bored with their Barbies, so they got a pair of scissors, cut all their hair off and created extreme Barbie. They're both ice hockey players now.

"Far from being a symbol of empowerment, the new Hijab Barbie is an example of a cultural and civilizational jihad -- and the submission of a Western company, Mattel, to that jihad. Cultural jihad is the attempt to change and subvert Western culture from within, or more simply put: to Islamize it."

One could say that in Mattel's case it's about the money and the furtherance of its empire at all cost. However, I believe it's far more than that -- since, by now, we, the enemies of Israel, and Christendom, know this there has to be why the Western world has gone so far off the deep end, socially, ethically, and theologically. There's no point in discussing these things here, because it's not about what's right and wrong, I dare say; it's has more to do with the psychology, theological outlook of the western world.

Islam has found a very persuasive key to having its way through the protocol of its ideology -- murder anyone who has the temerity to disagree with their ideology -- they have no reason to fix anything, since it works.

How dare Mattel participate in the "grooming" of little girls in the civilized world for a suggested future of being a "wife" to some old goat (or young goat) as their duty? Mattel can GTF out of the USA for all I care, sooner the better -- sell your stock or try getting your mutual funds to get rid of that stock because they are subverting our culture in order to turn a buck.

Since they're on an Olympics kick, I'm curious to see if Mattel will create a "Sheroes" doll to honor, say, Yarden Gerbi - 2013 World Judo Champion, bronze medalist in Judo at the 2016 Olympics, and five-time Israeli national Judo champion. Because, you know, Yarden "is an inspiration to countless girls who never saw themselves represented, and by honoring her story, we hope this doll reminds them that they can be and do anything."

It's clear that once a Muslim gains a position at Mattel and promotes the idea, the fear of offending or of lawsuits means colleagues have to celebrate the whole thing with contrived goodwill. Having been leveraged, it's easier on the psyche to pretend to yourself that you welcome it as a gesture of peace and goodwill. Once achieved, it's like the roots of a small plant etching into rock, making way for bigger things to take root. But this also flags a defining side to the psychology of leftists, never mentioned because it seems to counter to things like the sexual revolution, their own cultural jihad from the 1960s.

Excuse moi, but that is no Barbie. . .that there effigy has an olive complexion and brown peepers. Barbie is a blondie with sky blue eyes. This is but an outrageous imposter that will be shunned by non-Muslim girls. . .for all we know, this tart could be wearing an explosive vest beneath that potato sack of a dress. No, this will never do. . .I expect to see protesters outside all toy shops, demanding that these offensive mannequins be hauled off the shelves and returned to Mattel for recycling.

I hope Mattel is aware of the fact that Hijab symbolically embodies just about every disfunctionality of Islamic world when it comes to the treatment of women.

Be it the arranged, often first cousin marriages, child marriage and abuse, female genital mutilation, sexual submission and overall obedience that is to be maintained by force and violence at any time.

Under Sharia, there is also no penalty for killing one's own child. So the often reported cases of girls killed by their parents for straying away from Islam are entirely in line with its doctrine.

"I hope that little girls of color across..." The last time I checked Islam was a religion, not a race.

More deference is given to Islamic style in an effort to tell the Muslim world that "We are like you." I hope that is never to be the case. While dolls are for children, it is part of indoctrination into feminist roles. This is a political ploy to normalize what should never be normal; Subjugation.
These ideas are to push an agenda of globalism as if we are all the same. But the reality is that there is a world of difference in how we treat women.

I hope that we are not so far down the road of political correctness, that women and men in the West/America in particular, cannot wake up the inconvenient reality of long term goals of Islamic jihad. Islam is NOT a friend of freedom, our protections provided us by our Constitution, or anything upon which this country was built. I am willing to predict if we thought Communism could make life bad for general people--no other ideology may come close to being as repressive, harsh,and unforgiving as life would become under sharia law. May God see fit to spare us from this fate.

I will never understand how these people just do not get that aligning themselves with sharia does not exactly scream "liberal." But, then again, none of them are liberal by any true sense of the word. But, I guess, they see a buck to be made, now that all things Muslim are in "fashion."

gosh, goodness, I feel all warm and fussy inside. Mattel toys is really doing a great service to the young kids out there. I wonder if "Barbie" comes with a "stoning kit" if she allegedly misbehaves? Maybe the company will have a "male counter part" so she can walk behind him? Any strap on's like grenades, flame throwers, vests that come with this idea. Well while we're at it, any cages we can put the accumulated barbies in so they can be put underwater?

I'm calling out Mattel for real cultural insensitivity. The Hijab Barbie is not properly representing Muslim women who are forced to wear a Hijab. The Muslim Barbie is missing some good shiners. Also does she come with a mutilated genitalia?

The Islamists and the Dhimmi Left tout this as progress. Quite the contrary, Muslim women have participated in the Olympics in the past without a Hijab. This is not a step forward. Wearing a head rag in the freest country in the world in the 21st century is strides backwards for all of civilization. Shame on Mattel for supporting female oppression.

It never ceases to amaze me that those who continue to appease and accommodate Islam remain oblivious (or uncaring) to the fact that Islam never reciprocates in kind.

Please explain to the readers and myself, Mr Vice President of 'Global Marketing for Barbie Doll'.

(1) How wearing a hijab is an inspiration to countless girls who never saw themselves represented
(a) Which girls would that be – Girls in the West?

(2) Suggesting that you hope this doll reminds them that they can be and do anything."
(a) What freedom would that be?
(b) Having no say in what they might hope and wish for under any circumstances
(c) That they might enjoy the violent oppression as do all women in Islam?
(d) That they might actually like genitalia mutilation and maybe chose it as a fashion / freedom issue?
(e) Maybe they would love the extreme gender-apartheid that the Quran mandates

(3) Do you realize that the hijab is a Muslim symbol of control over women (Where would your inane idea of freedom come from.)
(a) Please explain - how this would set them free?.

(4) What I and many people in the west see is 'Your addition to the abuse of Women' as if there was not enough problems already in the Western Hemisphere.

(a) How about a couple of dolls dressed as in rags almost naked in a Prison in North Korea?
(b) Or a couple of dolls of IRA men lined up outside a Post Office waiting to be shot ?
(c) Why not a cotton worker in a southern field being dragged by her hair in a cotton rag for clothing (now that would be a cheaper version – less materials needed)

What splendid scenes this would be for you to make money at freedoms expense.

You make myself and I am sure many others Sick of your Blind and Stupid presentation of what Freedom really is.

Please explain - I would be so interested to hear your reply.

Kudos to Ms. Bergman for saying it like it is. I have no problem with Moslems practicing their religion or dressing the way they do so long as it does not try to impose its religion on others surreptitiously or otherwise. What is wrong is that they are attempting to impose their religion on others and that is aimed at destroying the right of freedom of religion. Some 2500 years ago the Greeks attempted to do the same thing to the Jewish People by imposing their Hedonistic ideas on the Jews in the name of "Freedom". Many Jews were taken in by this sweet talk. The problem came when they made it illegal for Jews to believe in or worship the God of the Jews. The Communist regime in the Soviet Union in the 20th Century did the same thing when they made it illegal to teach about God. In the case of the Jews, a small band of zealots known as the |Maccabees made war against the Greeks and won even though they were greatly outnumbered. This victory is celebrated as the Jewish holiday of Hanukah and was in fact the first war in recorded history that was fought to establish freedom of religion. I hope that we do not have to fight a war in order to prevent our rights to be taken away, but unless we do something right now to stop this nefarious activity by the Muslim Brotherhood and others that is what is going to happen.

MATTEL like other corporate whores "only" seeks to make money by whoring out the tired old virtue-shaming guilt of the "multi-culturalism" pretense - the lie that all "cultures" are somehow equal, without bothering to define this "culture" of which they are all so tied into vociferously defending at literally all costs! And it's as usual, only a code-word for "reverse" racism!

But "culture" isn't an inherent ethnic of racial right - at most, it's only the result of accumulated traditional wisdom or learning - social education!

And as the amount of education or learning individuals have may vary and differ, with bad habits thrown into the mix for good measure, so too it is with "culture!" One wouldn't - yet - be so foolish as to insist, to the point of making actual laws against "hurt feelings" to pretend that the educational levels of, say, junior high school and that of a Ph.D were "diversely equal!"

So, too, must we reject the equally insane notion that all "cultures" are equal in development of even the most basic moral principles! To do so only endorses the insane notion that peoples have a right to remain irresponsibly WRONG!

Muslim women in Muslim countries would never be allowed to do what this young woman has done. That she lives in the West explains it all. Had she lived in Saudi or Kuwait or the like, her talent would never have been discovered. Wake up Western countries. The jihadists are winning, half of the West don't/won't recognise war has been declared and we are losing.

The socialist/pro-Islam control over most of the education and news industries is bearing fruit. People are taught this benevolent, and false, characterization of Islam in the schools and universities, and through much of the news they're exposed to -- and since there is hardly anything to the contrary promulgated through the generally recognized sources of information, most tend to accept it. Education and news have become indoctrination and propaganda, and few look beyond what's commonly available for other explanations.

Might be a good idea if all decent thinking people were to boycott Mattel, then they would have to change their minds and other companies might take the hint.

The Left's support for Islam, which grew considerably under the administration of Barack Obama, has resulted in an increased acceptance in our society of Islamic values and customs. Although Hijab Barbie appears to be a benign and quaint representation of female Muslim modesty, it is in fact a powerful symbol of a highly repressive, misogynistic ideology that threatens the freedom of all American women. Perhaps Mattel should create a male doll to be a companion for Hijab Barbie. I believe an appropriate name for this new doll would be Jihad Joe.

I do love irony: Barbie dolls were created by Ruth Handler. And, yes, she was Jewish. I'll bet that's kept out of the advertising and promotional materials....

It was Lenin who said "the capitalists will sell us the rope with which we hang them". Clearly, Mattel are the capitalists who are now "selling rope" to the Islamists.

Ghastly, ghastly and ghastly. Or for the makers, just profits. Nothing else to say.

The next to come, Barbie in head to toes burqa.

This is an absolute disgrace for Mattel. They plainly submitted to Islam. Besides the model woman for the doll did not get a medal in the Olympic games. This is all Islam supremacist at its best trying to influence young children. In the fire we go .

Rather than reminding girls of a world of opportunities, the hijab reminds them of all the things they cannot do in many Muslim countries. These include decisions about their own lives and bodies, such as not having their genitals mutilated, and generally not leading the free lives that women in the West -- including the ones working at Mattel -- probably take for granted.

The hijab is one of many pieces of Muslim garb whose purpose is to make Muslim women unattractive (deliberately, in accordance with Islam, as protection against libido-driven Muslim men). I call Muslim women in hijabs "Fat Faces." The hijab uglifies the face of the most attractive and beautiful female face, regardless of race; not even Greta Garbo or Carole Lombard would look appealing in a hijab. No little girl I know of wants to be like Ibtihaj, swathed from head to toe in sweltering garb to hide a girl's positive physical attributes. I do not think Hijab Barbie will sell as good as, say, Bikini Barbie. And while Mattel is at it, why doesn't it debut "Burqa Barbie," in order to demonstrate how submissive it is to Islam? The doll could resemble a Yazidi woman in a hijab and chains, in a cage, waiting to be burned alive by ISIS. Come on, Mattel! Roll out the press release! And also report how much in residuals Ibtihaj is getting for "loaning" her face to the doll? And how much of those residuals will actually go fund terrorism?

Judith Bergman is right to warn of the way jihadists are attempting to insinuate their ideas into the West, but I cannot agree that they are succeeding. A person would have to be an idiot to believe that Islam is a "religion of peace" or that girls wrapped up like Egyptian mummies are being empowered. The money-lovers are just trying to market a brand and they know there are some Muslims out there who have money but I must believe common sense will prevail among the majority. Certainly the majority of Western people look upon jihad with contempt in spite of the foolish ones among the media and humanist leaders. Ordinary people are not so woolly-headed.

There are many things as a Christian I would not wish women and girls would do. Wearing a Hijab in itself seems like a choice in the west. Why do Christian women from sharia law dominated nations wear a scarf and cover their arms even in the heat of summer? To most women and girls living in the west buying a Hijab Barbie is a choice. Not so by many people living under the oppression of sharia law.
We draw our experiences and impressions from that which are closest to us and we can see with our own eyes.
Our eyes see Muslims in the western context, we see them as partially assimilated except for dress and where they might worship but after all that is matter of choice in the west and religion is protected. Because they are minorities they may complain they are disadvantaged and offended by any association of their religion that is critical and "insensitive". The same consideration is denied Christianity which because it is the majority seems more threatening and is already treated as a perverse and archaic expression of humanity and atheists, some agnostics and socialists see a belief in the Jesus the Christ as a threat to sanity.
But the fact is the Islamic identity changes in context, for those Muslims who have fled a government tyranny to seek asylum in the USA with gratitude and are able to adjust to a certain amount secular freedoms and live and let live attitude there is no problem. Wearing the Hijab is akin to a Christian wearing a cross, an ash on their forehead once a year and other outward expressions of a commitment to faith.
However, for the majority and especially under sharia laws thumb, the Hijab is a mandatory expression of faith and it is not worn as an expression of faith but as a duty or submission to national law.
In Egypt a law maker recently expressed in their assembly that women who dress scantily, or provocatively should be raped. For too many Muslims it doesn't simply stop with wearing the hijab it goes on to determine punishment and abuse of those who don't.
Even today's moderate Muslims is apt to change and advocate the oppression of minorities when they become the majority.
This is a contributory cause to the ongoing crisis in Israel and why the Palestinians are so insistent on the right of return hoping to accomplish by majority what they have failed to do with murder, terrorism and declarations of war and the threat of annihilation, that is the voice of Islam.

Non-Muslims must boycott Mattel and it's Barbie doll for good, bringing it to bankruptcy.

The dream of all Muslims is being aided and abetted by the greedy toy manufacturers, and of course, we mustn't forget the fashion industry! Is this really the dream of Ibtihaj Muhammad or perhaps the dream of the Muslim men in the background who govern her life? Has she got the freedom to choose whether she wears head covering, or is she obeying the rulings of men who will never accept Western society but instead wish to change things?
But this is typical of big business, make money at all costs and so exploit the market and care not what the outcome of such compromise does to those who don't enjoy seeing this blatant Islamisation taking place with their help.
Little by little, chipping away and opening the cracks ever wider in the hope that it will be unnoticed until it becomes impossible to stop. When the time is right, more demands for the West to change and to embrace Islam as the one true faith. Our corrupt politicians have done this already. They don't care for the people they are career politicians who just want the votes of the people, and they don't care who those people are, or the possible consequences of their decisions.
I don't think anyone needs any lessons on what the words "Allahu Akbar" mean when being shouted out by many of these lunatics when carrying out an attack. No one is in any doubt exactly what it means and nor should they be told otherwise by any politician or "community leader", do they really consider us to be that stupid?
Hijab Barbie is just another way of seducing very young girls and getting them ready for the day when they will be forced to embrace Islam. What must be remembered is that women such as Linda Sarsour are flying the flag for Islam, either because they have been promised to profit from doing so, or out of fear. Whatever the reasons behind this, no woman in their right mind willingly wears head covering. They always take it off when inside the home, it has nothing to do with modesty, that is a lie. It's just another excuse to undermine the society in which they have chosen to stay. All they want to do is change others to suit them and we mustn't let it happen, no matter what!

Easy response: Stop buying Mattel anything
