Every schoolkid learns war. They learn about old battles won and lost. They don't learn peace. Our mandated peacekeeper is handled basically just with "UN is the successor of League of Nations".
How does a lasting peace happen if we only teach war?

@Dejan50421621 That's Russian / Macedonian spelling for Ukraine. Ukrainian is Україна. Слава Україні stands for "Glory to Ukraine", answer is Героям Слава. The phrase appeared during Ukrainian war of independence 1917 - 20, and became the official slogan of OUN-B.
@Lone_Ranger_22 @LovelySocialist @qwe_700@DagnyTaggart369 RIght. My education in the history of my country doesn't come from Wikipedia, we have a pretty darn good schooling system too.
In the > half a century I've walked this earth I've done my share of richard measuring contests. You're welcome to continue by yourself.
@Dejan50421621 did attack both directions. They weren't received with open arms really anywhere in the Western Europe, to the best of my knowledge.

@Dejan50421621 I know what it means and where it comes from. I don't follow trends. I don't contest what you say about not caring about slavs - the stupid stereotype of dirty men and slutty women is way too familiar. Despicable, if you ask me.

@NebitanCoek @LovelySocialist @qwe_700@DagnyTaggart369 Very incorrect. It's been known for millennia. Here's a comb found in Denmark dating to 3rd - 4th century, and an Anglo-Saxon urn from 5th - 6th century.
@Clarity65808926 @AldyBrad1@DagnyTaggart369@gjbangar Probably not. I think that's a big reason why FAF Command also abandoned it. I actually managed half a century (and served) without even knowing swastika was used as an emblem by anyone until the news broke 2020...
@Clarity65808926 @AldyBrad1@DagnyTaggart369@gjbangar Yeah. Although if we go technical, swastika by itself isn't the nazi symbol, it's the swastika standing on its corner. Orientation matters - and I'll invite anyone saying "no it doesn't" to go and turn the cross on the altar upside down...
@fillerlitlecrab@DagnyTaggart369 No, you just insinuated Finns are nazis. As you read history, I'm sure you're familiar with why exactly Finland was allied with Germany?
