And that is the exact point I was making. Read what I wrote again, note I mention "idiots being offended", which is a clue to the clarification of the point you make above. The fact is, a symbol is highly dependent on its context of use and those who throw tantrums about a symbol being used outside of that context are simply attention seekers.
But it's not out-of-context at all. Invasions and occupations ... systematic destruction of infrastructure ... total subjugation of an entire civilian population, including rounding up males off the street and holding them captive in Torture prisons.
What part of this "Context" are you freaking missing entirely?
To extend this "contextual" matter to the grave threat posed to the world by that very dangerous regime in Iran:
This is a US Naval Base building ... uhh ... how do you explain that? Are Naval buildings constructed without oversight of the Naval Brass ?
I don't know anything about that particular building but I do know that a TON of military purchasing (and that building would be considered a purchase with the Feds) is done by civilian civil service workers. There's a good possibility a bunch of GS12s sitting in an office somewhere made all the decisions on the purchase. Design was probably done by a civilian contractor.
So unless you think all the GS12s are secret Nazis.....

When Marine investigators learned last November that a scout sniper platoon in Afghanistan was using a Nazi "SS" flag as its standard, it wasn't a member of the unit who told them. It was Iraq war veteran Waitman Beorn, a visiting history professor at Loyola University New Orleans, also a Fulbright and Guggenheim fellowship recipient who teaches at the National Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington.
To what? The government being involved in some massive plot to promote Nazi-ism through the military?
Shoot. No way they could be that organized. They can't even run the Postal Service.
We aren't talking about mail here are we? No, sport, we're talking about the most powerful military the world has ever seen, and a new unprecedented philosophy of unprovoked and preemptive wars, invasions and occupations and full spectrum domination ... in case you haven't been paying attention for the past decade, with Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan and Libya as rather obvious examples that seem awfully hard to miss.
We're talking about the ability to deliver a bunker busting nuke with pinpoint accuracy launched from a sea bearing vessel 100 miles off the coast of it's inland target, not the Post Office delivering a freaking letter.
We're talking about Homeland Security (Fatherland), and TSA, and FEMA ... and indefinite detention and the Patriot Act and the NDAA and rendition and Torture and openly admitting and legalizing assassinations of enemies, to include American citizens.
We have US Military Units with Skulls and Crossbones adorning their armored vehicles ... sniper units posing with Nazi SS Flags, and Naval Installations shaped in the form of a Swastika .... and a president that no longer feels he requires congressional approval or constitutional authority to engage in war, and has openly said so.
And we're talking about power drunk psychopathic leadership in Israel and the United States and the UK seemingly hell bent on attacking Syria and Iran, as Russia and China mobilize against those plans, which could very well lead to World War III and global annihilation.
That's what I'm referring to when I say open your eyes .... not the post office or the nitwits working at the Department of Housing and Urban Development.
Forgive me if I find it absurd that someone can sleep through all of that, and remain clueless.
Hmmm, maybe this image will work, since my last one seems to have been denied after a few days of working.
I take comfort that when these guys meet their maker he wil send them to a place where they can spend eternity swaping war stories with the likes of
Sepp Dietrich.

Scout Sniper does not equal (if i get this correctly) Stutz Staffel. The snipers are not Storm Troopers. The SS were.
