A coming series of "superhero" cartoons promoting the tenets of Islam under the title of "The 99" – which has been praised by President Obama – is drawing a terse warning from an expert who has analyzed media impact on people for decades.
"These are not the types of heroes you want your children to have," Dr. Ted Baehr, chief of MOVIEGUIDE®," told WND today. "These heroes, at their core, because they represent values contrary to humanity, at the core these heroes are more villain than hero."
Reports already have circulated about the plans by The Hub, which formerly was Discovery Kids, to produce the series featuring characters portraying the 99 attributes of Allah, at Family Security Matters and others.
The New York Post ran a column describing plans for the Shariah-compliant Muslim superheroes – "including one who fights crime hidden head-to-toe by a burqa."
"These Islamic butt-kickers are ready to bring truth, justice and indoctrination to impressionable Western minds," the report said.
That's the problem, according to Baehr, with the Middle East cartoon that reportedly is being picked up and scheduled for a launch early in 2011 by Hasbro toys and Discovery Communications.
Baehr's organization said the program includes "hair-hiding headscarves" that are "mandatory for the five female characters, not including a 'burqa babe' called Batina the Hidden."
"Curiously (or not so curiously considering his track record), President Obama, who was raised as a Muslim by his stepfather in Indonesia but supposedly converted to Christianity, praised this work created by Kuwaiti psychologist Naif al-Mutawa, saying at an April meeting with Arab entrepreneurs, 'His superheroes embody the teachings of the tolerance of Islam.'"

It’s official: our President terrifies me.
PING!
We knew what was coming. That is why I stayed home and cried all day the day after he was elected.
Oh yeah, Obama is a Christian, don’tcha know.
Wouldn't it be great if once, just once, he would praise something pro Western and pro Christian?
I wonder who picked up the tab for his mother's last days on earth after she had spend most of her life in Indonesia, while she was healthy and then came back to the bad old USA for her treatment prior to death?
So many secrets in this President's life!
I had a migraine so powerful, I was bed-ridden.
It hasn’t fully stopped since.
Praying that the Nov will at least decrease its severity.
An authentic Weirdo-American. What a circus freak.
“Wouldn’t it be great if once, just once, he would praise something pro Western and pro Christian?”
Not to me. I would assume he broke off the attack because we were finally destroyed.
And some wonder what makes many think this SOB is a moslem?
But we cannot have a religious Christmas..nope...in the WH unless there is a hue and cry about it first..
I can’t say what I really think..I’d be banned.
That should read” so many secrets in this Resident’s life”...we don’t know much about him so for my $$ he is only the Resident at the WH and I bet it had to be fumigated a few weeks ago for bedbugs and grubs.
You gotta be kidding me.
You gotta be kidding me.
This is what I have been afraid of for a long time - that the Moslems would get smart in their proselytizing.
American mores generally are so feeble and vapid that something which appears simple, clear, assertive and proactive will have the potential for a lot of traction.
Watch the cartoon trailer - it is long but worth it. Then compare that to feeble pap like the Captain Planet and the Planeteers (if it is still on anywhere) Dora the Explorer or Fairly Odd Parents.
The Left will rue the day that it embraced Islam as a fellow traveler. The secular left won’t even be a speed bump in the way of Islam.
This is far worse than a bomb going off. It took them a while, but the Imams are getting smart.
There. Fixed it.
“My Muslim faith.”
“I have been to all 57 States. One more to go.”
“The United States is one of the largest Muslim nations on Earth.”
