Babytalk from sound library mistaken for Islamic evangelism
The really funny part isn't that Ohio mother Rachel Jones thought she'd discovered some weird Islamic propaganda emanating from her daughters toys. After all, I wouldn't expect her to know that toys and games often draw from the same sound libraries, and will therefore have the same sound effects and even "dialogue", inasmuch as random babytalk counts as dialogue. Instead, the really funny part is that the news department for the local CBS affiliate thought this was a story.
Thanks Adree!

Hmm, somewhat disturbing.
Not the "Propaganda", but that the news is reporting it like it teaches kids to do crack.
I wonder what the response would have been if it had said "Jesus is the light"

Jesus didn't blow up the World Trade Center.

"Jesus didn't blow up the World Trade Center."
Well you never know.... Though if we go by what followers do then Jesus blows up abortion clinics and gay bars among other things. Heh

It says Islam is the light so what I have a album that says worship thedevil and kill when played backwards. People hear what they want to hear so get over it and move on.
