I know at some point in history it was definitely a Jewish sign but from what I've heard elsewhere there are various depictions of it in other cultures and a lot them do revolve around protection.

Hmm, so does anyone know why the Nazis use it then?

Protecting a "pure" bloodline maybe?

Simply because at its purest form the swastika is a hindu simple used by the Brahmins, who are the highest cast of Hinduism and since most of them hail from Kashmir are actually amongst the whitest people on the planet, hance the connection to the swastika being an aryan symbol. Furthermore aryan means white in sanskrit

Who cares why the Nazi's used them. They weren't exactly the most sound of minded people on the planet.
Honestly, anything done/thought by the Nazi's can pretty much be thought of as "stupid+mental".

To be honest mate - that attitude really scares me.

If we do not pay attention to mistakes made in the past, and just write the whole thing off as stupid+mental we dont learn anything from them and then we run the risk of making them again.

We must remember that the Nazis were voted in too power. Lots and lots of people believed that they were a good thing. Hell at one point England used Adolf Hitler as a positive example of how a strong leader can take a country to greatness!!!

If we don't learn from our mistakes we are doomed to repeat them.
