Spartacus, I don't think those flags will get along too well next to each other like that.
Exarchus, I was wondering. What doe the snakes represent on the Martinique flag? ------------- |

The white cross is a symbol of religious purity I'm pretty sure, you can also find it on the Quebecois flag. I bet the snake is the original sin. The Quebecois flag is almost the same with white "Fleur de lys" instead of snakes. ------------- Vae victis! |

Thats not a nazi flag. Its not even a flag at all i dont think. I got it off of crwflags.com anyways, its a political flag in Greece. Hrysi Avgi (Golden Dawn) is the biggest organization of the extreme right in Greece. Its members usually use Greek flags or the red flag with the http://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/naz_symb.html#cac - Celtic Cross but on a photo from a speech I found this flag, which must be their official. It bears the meander, which is their badge, and the red, black and white colours, often used by similar organizations around the world. I am not saying I support this group what so ever, I just like the flag. Theres not even a SWATSTICA in the middle, its the Greek Key.. ------------- http://theforgotten.org/intro.html |

You're right, it shouldn't matter. I don't even think it should matter if there was a polotical connection, as long as people are respectfull towards one another, we shouldn't be scared to show our politcial views. Ha, I know that's going to come back to haunt me. |

The Raelian Cult are worshipers of all things ridiculous. The leaders have claimed they have been taken to alien planets numerous times and the Cult is known for making 'UFO Landing Pads', taking credit for several technological advances (like cloning), and coming up with all sorts of 'Government Conspiracies'. In short, they are a bunch of loonies who ought to be tied up. I heard their flag was a swastika inside a Star of David... ------------- "Why do you cower in your trenches, men?
