Sorry, but i cannot accept that. I don't care a **** about hindu svastikas
and all the rest.
The svastika in the West was given a VERY different meaning!
You talk as if symbols exist, but they don't. They are just graphics. People
give them or not a significance.
BTW Unity and peace are exactly what leaders want to run their bussiness,
not i. I want civilized disunity!

Yours, F r e e
