Obviously we are probably going to start hearing a lot more about Fascism after Dr Paul comments this morning, so I figured it would be worth educating yourselves about Fascist Symbols that are used in the US in plain view for all to see.

Fasces in Congress

Bronze Fasces

The bronze fasces, used since Roman times to symbolize civic authority, are located on both sides of the U.S. flag. The original Roman fasces consisted of an axe within a bundle of rods, bound by a red strap. The fasces were carried before the consul and were used to restore order and to carry out the punishment of the courts.

At the Lincoln Memorial, Washington DC, Lincoln's seat of state bears the fasces on the fronts of its arms.

2Two large crossed FASCES compose the insignia of the National Guard, creating a huge "X" (AX) superimposed upon an openwinged eagle.

Giant Fasces appear here in 1930's Fascist Italian propaganda.

The Fasces on a US dime.

The Mace, which is the symbol of the Office of the Sergeant at Arms, is placed by the Sergeant at Arms on a pedestal at the Speaker's right each time the House convenes. The MAce is also used in the British and Australian parliaments and is also a Nazi symbol of power.

Well, well, well, what do we have here? The same symbol on a Nazi stamp. Look again at the Nazi postage stamp, featuring the Mace on the right hand side.

And this time Maces can be seen in the background as Hitler gives a speech.

I have focused on just two symbols, the Mace and the Fasces. I could list hundreds of examples.

Where are all the Jewish groups? Where's the outrage? A fancy dress outfit causes what will be a national debate for three months and yet these things have been in front of our faces for our entire lifetimes and there is no mention of them. Even to highlight this one risks being sidelined as a crackpot.


Serious questions need to be asked about why the very platform of supposed representative government in the United States is adorned with tributes to Nazi symbols of absolute dictatorial power.
