#1 "I doubt many Muslims would be seriously offended by piggy banks."

It should go without saying. But here's a thought: maybe the ones who are could just, say, GET OVER IT.

#2 The banks should immediately be sued because for years they have offended their Jewish customers in the same way, yet have neither discontinued this hateful practice or apologized.

Several of there employees have also been observed to be consuming bacon, ham, and spam without washing their hands before contaminating currency with grease from these Satanic pork products and by-products.

#3 What happens when Mooselimbs complain about the Razorbacks?

#4 Are pigs more offensive to mooselimbs than to Jewish people? Why has there never been a move by the Jews to have piggy banks extirpated? And why are the Brits now being so accommodating to the mooselimbs whereas they have been somewhat less so to Jews?

It's sort of like why the media still dote on Mao, Lenin and Che while the Nazis are the most depraved killers in history.

This is not just dhimmitude, it is identification. The euros admire the firm faith of the mooselimbs, a faith they long ago abandoned but now seek to rediscover. Europe will not be conquered, it will be converted, and not by the sword.

#5 HS - interesting tak, but IMHO the faith they seek will turn out soon to not be what they were looking for and they, striking out, will reject it, in a nasty brutish euro-continent cleansing of Islam

#6 frankly, I'm getting a Arab bank to replace my piggy bank - you don't wanna know where the coins go, but the eyes do light up in delight

#8 wonder how the Islamonuts deal with "Roth IRAs"?

#9 So... what the hell are muslims doing in an infidel interest-charging bank anyway?

Isn't that against their religion too?

Pretty soon they will be whining about christians praying in a christian church. (they already do this in Indonesia and kill christians / burn churches...).

#10 There is a simple solution. Brits who don't like it can express their displeasure by closing their accounts at the Halifax and NatWest banks. If they don't, and allow the Muslims to tred on them like this, then so be it.
