Guest guest Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 Hindus opposing EU swastika ban Hindus in Europe have joined forces against a German proposal to ban the display of the swastika across the European Union, a Hindu leader said. Ramesh Kallidai of the Hindu Forum of Britain said the swastika had been a symbol of peace for thousands of years before the Nazis adopted it. He said a ban on the symbol would discriminate against Hindus. full story, from BBC news http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/6269627.stm [Keval's note -- it's easy to tell the difference between a Hindu swastika and the Nazi version.. the latter is pointing backwards, and thus would be considered unlucky for Hindus] Everyone is raving about the all-new Mail beta. http://new.mail.
