Ok, I understand the stance to not promote this blot on Germany's history. But this is just lame.

Historically these symbols flew EVERYWHERE!!

Does Japan hide from their symbol of the rising sun in their games dealing with WWII? The same Japan that has a past of being VERY brutal, and killing many thousands if not millions of innocents in horrible and vicious ways. No, they just seemed to have learned to fight by putting down their swords, and picking up their briefcases.

How about America and the slavery supporting Rebel flag in Civil war games? That symbol is still around, and models of Rebel vessels have that flag as part of the kit. Yes there are those idiots that say " The south shall rise again", but so what? If I have a model of the HN Hunley, I WANT THAT FLAG ON IT'S MAST!! Not an orange flag with no other details.

Under the Union Jack, MANY atrocities took place the effects of which several countries are still feeling the effects of. Yet that flag flies proudly.

Germany, accept that your country like all countries has a history of pure evil in your past. Stop hiding. Just never ever, ever, let a scum ball like Hitler and the Nazis at the helm of your great country.

Realize that intolerance in most of its forms are evil, and do nothing for human kind.

Negating the symbol in historical games is not a way of doing this!!!

Before people say, "well the Nazis were responsible for millions of innocent deaths" Let's not forget Stalin is recorded to have killed MORE of his own people, under the Red Star. Is that symbol along with the Hammer and Sickle negated in Games in Russia? I don't believe so.

German government seems to be paying attention to the symptom rather than the problem. IMO.
