Forget George W. Bush. Forget Dick Cheney. The real threat to Iran? Barbie!
A top Iranian judiciary official has warned against the “destructive” cultural and social consequences of importing Barbie dolls and other Western toys.
Prosecutor General Ghorban Ali Dori Najafabadi said in an official letter to Vice President Parviz Davoudi that the Western toys was a “danger” that needed to be stopped.
Iranian markets have been inundated with smuggled Western toys in recent years partly due to a dramatic rise in purchasing power as a result of huge increase in oil revenues.
In Monday’s letter, Najafabadi called for a crackdown on the smuggling of these toys which threatened Iranian culture.
Haha! I think we should all begin a campaign and start randomly sending barbie dolls to Iran. Together we can change the world!
