LASTWOODSMAN | 05-May-17 21:35 | Gentlemen, the post WW2 stigmatization of the "Swastika" is a compelling subject. It and other "Runes" have been around for millenia since the Neolithic Age. It is a Sanskrit good luck symbol used in many cultures. There is a small town in Northern Ontario near Kirkland Lake called Swastika, founded in 1908 and named for the Swastika Gold Mine which started in 1907 (which started the big gold rush in the area by the way), and this town has not had to change its name. Lots about the Swastika in this Russian documentary. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MwUpPwyyvLw |
LASTWOODSMAN | 05-May-17 21:42 | The Russians were the first into Berlin in WW2, and confiscated much Nazi Archival film footage, showing the big marches and Hitler's fascination with Runes and history. This is the famous Russian documentary of 2006 with English closed caption words, which covers many facets of WW2 and even Admiral Richard E Byrd's naval mission to destroy the Nazi bases in Antarctica, named "Operation Highjump". Beware: this is for the curious intellectual historian, and not for the squeamish or faint of heart. 44 minutes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MwUpPwyyvLw |
