The same goes for the T-shirts: these are counterfeited T-shirts, if they don't represent the original symbol of the club. Barça should sue those who distribute the T-shirts. In case the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia refuses to do anything about that (ie. through its courts to enforce the original T-shirt), then Barça should refuse ever to play with any Saudi club or have any business whatsoever with that country. But that's not going to happen either, for the same reason I mentioned in the previous paragraph.
I even heard that in most Muslim countries, as well as in Israel, the sign plus (+) is not used in maths because of its similarity with the cross, but some dot or little circle instead. I am not able to verify that right now.
