Ok, I am not sure about this, but before those Nazis took Swastika as 
their emblem, it was used by ancent nations:

SWASTIKA - An ancient cosmic or religious symbol formed by a Greek cross 
with the ends of the arms bent at right angles in either a clockwise or a 
counterclockwise direction.

No, this is hell, and I guess that sign goes hand in hand with
(inverted) crosses, and Pentagrams.

Kill em all.
