Ghee, I wonder why?
Looks like another case of the infamous zionist double standard.
Israeli parents who are worried that they may have possibly bought dangerous toys containing lead paint can relax: Tests conducted by the Israel Standards Institute on Mattel toys taken from store shelves show that all of the products meet the safety standards.
U.S. toymaker Mattel ordered a recall in the last week of its Polly Pocket and Barbie dolls and sets and those of Tanner (Barbie's dog) and other items made in China due to the use of lead paint and tiny magnets that could be swallowed by children.
Less than two weeks ago, Mattel was also forced to recall other Chinese-made toys such as Dora the Explorer and Big Bird and Elmo dolls over concerns about lead paint used on the toys.
The test results here were announced yesterday by the Industry and Trade Ministry, which said none of the products tested contained lead paint.
Standards Institute inspectors said suspect items were removed from store shelves immediately after Mattel's announcement of the recall.
The ministry emphasized yesterday that while in the U.S. and Europe, toy imports are allowed entry into the country on the basis of the manufacturer's claims, but here in Israel the Standards Institute tests samples of all imported toys.
Hmmmmm.
Even if israelis test samples while Americans and Europeans don't, WHY would a company like Mattel distribute hazardous toys in America and Europe and reserve the safe ones for israel?
Is that by coincidence or by design?
