Finland's Air Force Quietly Drops Swastika Symbol...

It's sad that because at a different time in the past, a different country, used a different version of said symbol, Finland has to change things. Anyone familiar with military history easily recognized the light blue squared swastika as the Finish Roundel (later just their insignia) not as a "Nazi symbol", but what has been Finland's Air Force symbol for over *ONE HUNDRED YEARS*.

I understand why they're changing it, and in the end it is their choice, but I remain not a big fan of historical revisionism and erasure to fit someone's modern ideals.

The Swastika has been a religious symbol for centuries before Hitler.

Yes, that symbol has been Finish since the inception of an air force which was prior to the Nazis coming into power.

I have to agree with the general feeling of this list. Lately it seems to be the big push with society to change everything if it "offends me", even if they don't have any idea of its historical value or its history in the first place. We are rapidly losing our history to under or uneducated masses who only want what appears to be a totally socialist society.

Soon there will be no symbols just words at the best no statues of anything anyone any place. Schools will soon be school number 1, no mascot no team names. Towns will soon be redone also along with state names and mascots. Oh how wonderful life will be. Elmer Fudd will never get his gun back cartoons will go away because they will offend someone some where some how.
