A few months back there was a minor uproar surrounding "Islam is the light," a phrase which some people thought they heard uttered by both a talking baby doll and a children's DS game.

In a video posted late last week on YouTube, a man claims that a character in Nintendo's recently-released Wii title Punch-Out!! shouts "Allah Akbar," an Arabic phrase which translates to "God is great."

RevolutionOfCG, who describes himself as a conservative pundit in his YouTube profile, posted the clip of fighter Bald Bull and equates the character's supposed utterance of the phrase with terrorism:

It the villain characters are are uttering evil mechanical sounds like  "Islam is the light" or "Allah Akbar", then it should be considered normal.

However if these dolls or lifeless characters are uttering these sounds without the help of any scientific gadgets, then it should be considered weird and shall be reported to nearest authorities and to Mullahs.
