Most Jews in the US at the time were in the South. The Virginian battle flag used a St. Andrew's cross to avoid alienating the Jews with a Roman cross. Also, don't forget Grant's General Order #11.

ITS just a Flag from the past!!.... Only racists and people w/ unhappy lives relate it to anything of todays world...... Get a life, Get happier in that life.... and take your ANGRY Life politics to another site.

Grow Up !!! and move out of your moms cellar.
