I could just as easily cliam that the Americans also use a "Hitlerian" salute when they pledge their allegiance to the flag. The cyclone has its roots in Syrian history, whether you like it or not, and its adoption as the party symbol was undertaken in an independent manner having nothing to do with the Nazi party.<BR/><BR/>Saadeh's philosophy is a unique one and should be judged on its own merits without resort to baseless propaganda written about it by the enemies of the nation.Nourhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17741879089276139111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2877021302361497708.post-83040308794792337382009-03-06T13:01:00.000-05:002009-03-06T13:01:00.000-05:00"they refer as a "swastika" when in fact it is a C...<I>"they refer as a "swastika" when in fact it is a Cyclone with no ties or relations to the Nazi swastika."</I><BR/><BR/>It's a swastika.
