Hi,

I'm trying to see swastika there but I haven't been able to do so. There
is nothing what could be interpreted as swastika. Can someone draw it
and send a picture? I think that this thread is totally insane and sad.
But it is probably because people always tend to see things they don't
like everywhere (like conspiracies).
