That's horrible that anyone can even think of killing anyone, much less do it. Saudi Arabia is a blemish on the Islamic world, and anything you hear about them would make anyone biased. But it's sorta like here; the majority of people identify themselves as Christian, but yet we see tons of un Christian behavior every single day. Culture and religion are two different cans of worms that at times get confused. Doesn't make it right though.

ETA: They wouldn't make a "Muhammed" doll because images of him are completely forbidden. I think a Ken doll would be kind cool though

I was not referring to their supposed prophet. I simply used the name as a general reference. Perhaps I'm wrong, but I thought Muhammed was a commonly used name, somewhat like Jesus is in the Hispanic world. Perhaps I spelled it wrong. I hope my mistake did not offend.
